"Triune" definition

Most traditionally-mainstream Trinitarian Christians would disagree with the definition of "triune" given in this article... AnonMoos 04:45, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Can anyone suggest a better alternative? I have had to rv vandalism from a Christian once already. The definitions are meant to be very plain-English, not super-geeky comparative religion grad student ones. :-) — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] 23:26, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Should we add this to category:triune gods? Pictureuploader

I would think so. Done. — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] 23:26, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

List versus article

Would we want to rename this article "List of triple deities", or would you like it to be more like an article to expand? It seems to be half and half and could go either way. I've just put it down as a Wikiproject mythology list.Goldenrowley 22:08, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It seems to mostly be a list right now, but I think it should be an article per se that happens to contain a list (which could some day split off into a "List of..." list-article if necessary. There is way more than enough material out there to write a great comprehensive article about the topic (starting with probably Graves, Fraser and Campbell as sources); just needs someone interested enough to be the spearhead. No qualms at all with it being called a list in the context you mentioned, until such time as the article-direction expansion happens. — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] 23:33, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
OKay. Mid or high importance is fine, I dont clarify importance all the time as it tends to bristle people's feelings. Goldenrowley 20:01, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unanswered question

I noticed the list does not contain any triple-deities from religions originating outside of Eurasia before modern Eurasion contact (such as the pre-columbian Americas).

If this is because such things do not exist, that would be worth noting, otherwise an example of such a thing would be very informative.
