My question doesn't really relate to the encyclopedia article itself, but I see you've done a lot of editing in the general area and I assumed that you'd probably know the answer to my question (I shudder to think of what the Yahoo Answers people might say if I asked there!). |

Farrer seems pretty secure that Luke comes after Matthew, but is there any reason to dismiss the notion that perhaps Matthew came after Luke instead? It seems odd to me that most scholars seem to ignore this potentiality, which would - at the very least - explain why Matthew is generally more linguistically polished than Luke. It's probably some very fundamental, obvious answer that, being green to the field of Biblical Study, I just haven't yet stumbled upon. |

I'm genuinely curious, not trying to pick an editwar or something silly like that - just trying to expand my horizons :) |

PlaneShift article
Hi, the article of PlaneShift video game has been moved to the Incubator for improvements as suggested by other admins. Many new sources have been added, including scanned magazine articles, computer programming and open source books. I think it's ready to be evaluated and moved to the main space. Please review it and move the article to the main space if you think it's ready. Here is the article Thanks. Xyz231 (talk) 10:15, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
File:Gorules ko.png listed for deletion
A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Gorules ko.png, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion.

Archaeopteryx
The definition of "bird" does not depend on ability to fly. Many "birds" are incapable of flight, are they not?Grammarmonger (talk) 14:38, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
Forgotten?...only two months after your post? Heh heh. It was about an edit I made to Archaeopteryx. Anyways, someone else objected also, and satisfactorily overruled me with a stronger argument. Keep questioning everything, everywhere! :) Grammarmonger (talk) 13:21, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
Buddhabrot
I've updated the discussion of your buddhabrot program User_talk:Evercat/Buddhabrot.c ; listing all known bugs, provided fixes for most of them, and categorized it for easier reading. Michael.Pohoreski (talk) 17:25, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
Buddhabrot
Just a heads up: I have used your code plus Michael Pohoreski's changes to generate File:Buddhabrot 20000.png. Enjoy! Purpy Pupple (talk) 10:55, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Farmer
The Farmer information I deleted was cited to a non-RS (the web site) and that's why I deleted it. Citing that same information to a reliable source would work. Unfortunately, Farmer's viewpoint about Mark having access to Matthew and Luke, is pretty far outside the mainstream. WP:WEIGHT tells us to give less coverage to scholarly conclusions that get less coverage in the mainstream sources. But that's a separate issue. Leadwind (talk) 14:14, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:Partyg.png
![⚠](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/34/Ambox_warning_blue.svg/35px-Ambox_warning_blue.svg.png)
Thanks for uploading File:Partyg.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude2 (talk) 04:43, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/5f/Ambox_warning_orange.svg/42px-Ambox_warning_orange.svg.png)
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Chronology of Star Wars is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chronology of Star Wars(3rd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Anthem 20:10, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
NIV and Metzger
In response to your inquiry, "Do you really feel it's unreasonable to say that the NIV's treatment harmonises?" First, I want to apologize if that was your edit. I was not trying to stamp it out but there was a clarification notice from another editor. Second, I'm not really sure so I sought out the NIV side.
Barker, who originally precised over the NIV translation committee for the just translation in Jeremiah 7:22 said this in his book Accuracy Defined and Illustrated which I have, "One of the features of Hebrew sentence structure is a frequent use of elliptical constructions (the omission of one or more words that are obviously understood but must be supplied to make the construction grammatically and lexically complete). Our committee was convinced that there was an ellipses in this verse. But since our goal in the NIV was to make the meaning clear, we filled in the ellipsis with the word "just."
I can't find anything from the NIV translation information that states they were doing any harmonizing. If we are going to enter information that disputes what Barker stated, shouldn't we have a solid source? I would be fine with a quote from Metzger. Basileias (talk) 01:17, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
- Out of curiosity, where did you first read the idea was to harmonize? The NIV creators seems to be unique in their focus on "elliptical constructions." Basileias (talk) 12:10, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
“Is the protection necessary?”
Hi Evercat, I would be grateful to hear suggestions as to what else can be done in cases such as this — the user just keeps reverting and ignores the discussion on the talk page. If he is unwilling to discuss the issue, and just reverts out of principle — but is savvy enough to fall short of 3RR — what else can I do other than protect? — Timwi (talk) 10:48, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

Farrer hypothesis
