[edit] Spelling
Is the correct spelling of the first word of the title "Encyclopaedia", or should it be "Encyclopædia" with a ligature, as with Encyclopædia Britannica? Wmahan. 19:05, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
It may have been used in EI1, but EI2 does not use the "ae" ligature. Masarra 23:41, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
Does one man complimenting this volume make it authoritative? His Excellency... 04:50, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Expert on the topic
The quotations are from one individual, and it is not clear whether his description represents the general opinion on the Encyclopaedia. modify 10:31, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
EI2 is indeed a standard reference work in Islamic Studies and the relevant area-studies disciplines. Masarra 23:39, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
