While the article is a complete mess the Washington Post is portraying his and Keith Ellison's victories as signs of Muslim Americans growing engagement in the political process and see his election as a historic marker. Therefore the article should be cleaned up instead of deleted. Wowaconia 22:14, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
I cleaned up, wiki-fied, and expanded the article. It should be acceptable now. Wowaconia 22:05, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
Very impressive job expanding and adding references to the article Subwayguy 20:04, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
this needs to be something other than an autobiography. WillC 01:53, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
I must agree with User:WillC, and list this article up for a Good Article review. The introduction appears to give a purely positive outlook on this person and various politically signfigant things, things like "won the right" and excessive use of victory are the first sign there's a problem here. Of course, other people may not see it that way, so i've filed a WP:GA/R on this article, and also because it was not properly listed on the main GA page, and I figured I might as well go and handle the articles which showed up on a list of improperly passed articles anyway.

I have changed the phrasing but it seems arbitrary to take exception with the word "victory" being used to describe winning an election.
Image:Trespass notification.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
The article is good overal, except for a few minor problems, which have been stated below. However, if the problems are not fixed within one week, I will have to fail the nomination. Warrior 4321 23:17, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
Based on the title and most of the article, this page is about Ali. The lead paragraph contains far more, however, about a rise of South Asian political influence in the U.S. Most of the information on political clout should be moved elsewhere, with the lead rewritten to introduce the whole rest of the page. — ADavidB 01:39, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
