[edit] Lordi

I strongly feel Hard Rock Hallelujah needs to be mentioned in this article. --213.130.254.217 (talk) 06:50, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

I suggest that the better place to mention this is on the page Hallelujah (disambiguation) along with other uses of 'Hallelujah' in music titles. Please feel free to put it there. That way, this article will focus just on the word and its primary usage. If you still "strongly feel" that the wikilink belongs here, please give your justification below.

[edit] Alhamdulillah

Please do not remove text without good reason. Qwerta369 (talk) 14:48, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

The reason for removing Alhamdulillah from the lead section was stated in the edit history: Move Alhamdulillah out of lead section, merge with other mention of it under "See also". Does any part of See MOS:LEAD suggest to you that it needs to be there? - Fayenatic (talk) 16:12, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
This article is about the word Hallelujah, not about translations of it in other languages. Alhamdulillah is appropriately covered by a link under "See also" with a few words of explanation - Fayenatic (talk) 22:46, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Purpose of Sentence

Just clarifying the purpose of the sentence: "This is made easier by the fact that "Hallelujah" has become a word of unspoken meaning, not a transliterated phrase." The definition of the phrase's meaning is often publicly avoided or not taught, consciously or not. Purpose of sentence is to clarify why many non-Theists seem to use it. This might need to be reworded for grammatical, encyclopedic, and factual correctness. However, I think that the sentence provides a needed explanation. --IronMaidenRocks (talk) 02:37, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. I trimmed this today; I don't think it's important that people may not know the meaning -- some non-theists still say explicit things like "thank God" as well as this word. - Fayenatic (talk) 20:21, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Jah

I think its practical that "Jah" be used as the first spelling used in the header. The title of the article is in English, not Hebrew. That the spelling not be mentioned at all, when it is part of the most common spelling of the word - just doesn't make much sense. However, it seems the article title "Jah" needs some retouching. --IronMaidenRocks (talk) 08:49, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
