When I first started posting I was a bit of a crusader and posting mainly pro-Israel. Fairly expert on that conflict. (as I did here from 2006 -2012.. and some a bit later.. with this handle).
I figured my earlier yahoo handle 'murdered-by-Islamic-gunmen' was too long (and perhaps offensive), and they called me 'mbig' for short. (another later handle).
Then I loved 'abu afak' second (now turns out, 4th, but most famous) named victim of Big Mo. (First was a female, Asma bint Marwan). Afak started an internet riot when I used it on many Islamic/arab message boards.
I Fully intended it to! :^)
It created a battle of info/history on the net. Many Islamic websites started making up ****.
Wiki didn't know what to do.
First they changed the entry to [current] Islamic apologetics denying the person/history. (I disputed it there)
But ALL we know about a-a, in fact, came from several IsIamic sources. (incl the esteemed Ibn Ishaq's Bio of Mo). There is/was no other history of him.
So finally they changed the Wiki entry back to the approximate truth.
The unvarnished truth is (and was 20 years ago) best presented by (Christian website) Answering-Islam:
MUHAMMAD AND THE MURDER OF ABU AFAK
