DYK update

Any chance you could post it? I just finished it, thanks. Gatoclass (talk) 11:55, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I need help

Thank you very much for your help, but unfortunately I need help again → List of New Testament lectionaries — of course this List is not complete (even more notable lectionaries) but it be continued. I want write article about Museum of Bible in Amsterdam (Bijbelmuseum).

I work on "History of the Text of New Testament", it will first this book in Poland. It is really very difficult job (relashionship between families of manuscripts). Most difficult is Caesarean text-type. I do not know when I will finish it. Not quicly. CSNTM is very helpfull for me. From time to time I write some articules in polish, english and russian wikipedia (usually about biblical manuscripts). It is not so difficult like that unfinished book.

Err, huh? History of Japan "660 BC" -> "666 BC" -> "660 BC" -> "666 BC"

One of us is confused. But since I like knowing when I'm confused (see IP's umbrage on my talk page and his) I gotta ask... why? Did you look at the link in the summary, 660 BC, which mentions 660 BC as the date for the emperor? What did I 'get' wrong? Shenme (talk) 04:24, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Number of the Beast talk page

Would you have any objection if I removed the bottom thread on this page? It's OR, forum-type comments by one user, and then a long-winded, typically OR reply, by Xicsies. I see no reason to encourage him. Carl.bunderson (talk) 20:31, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

This Saint John's idea (people should vote in order to define what money is, instead of obeing to a violent money maker authority) is beeing censored by violent authorities and possesed people 2000 years now. I am not surprised that you also want to censor it. God Bless you, poor Carl... Check again the meaning of the word Ψηφισάτω.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Xicsies (talk • contribs) 21:21, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
I'm merely trying to keep OR out of WP. And what is your problem with having a signature, seriously.... Carl.bunderson (talk) 21:42, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
This alternative meaning of the word psefisato is not original research. It is written in EVERY dictionary. There are 2000 english transations of the bible and there is NONE mentioning the alternative meaning. Dont you think that is worth mentioning it somewhere? Original research refers to the article page, NOT to the talk page. Why are you trying to hide the alternative meaning of the word psefisato even from the talk page? Isnt the talk page a page where everyone is allowed to talk? Go look yourself at the mirror, Carl.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Xicsies (talk • contribs) 22:02, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

DYK Overdue

Much as I like seeing my DYK on the front page, it's now over 9 hours since the update! Mjroots (talk) 19:20, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

About the domestic violence article editing

After looking at Wikipedias article on domestic violence, the first thing i saw was how the neutrality of the the article was disputed. I usually pay no heed to these messages as biases in a Wikipedia article can be hard to hunt down. I log onto wikipedia often, so the words im about to type do bear weight:

Wikipedia's article on domestic violence, before i made any typographical changes, was the most sexist and exploitive article ive ever seen on this website.

The article throughout uses words like 'abuser' with 'man'and 'victim' with 'woman' synonimously, and let me give a few examples.

  • Under 'Types' it originally read: "IT batterers include two types... the first type include men that...the second type are men that..."
  • under Psychological Abuse: "Women that are psychologically abused... Women undergoing psychological abuse..."
  • under 'Definitions' it reads Wife Abuse and Wife Beating

...just to name a few

At this point let me mention I major in Behavior and Social Sciences. Anyway, hhen the writer gets to 'Violence against men' she only mentioned men being battered by other men. Furthermore, one of the FIRST things that part of the article said contradicted itself by saying violence against men is (brace youreself) 'not a problem', citing a website that makes references to men as diseased and 'the enemy.'

However, you are right about 2 things, one was that the Study on Women's Health and Domestic Violence against Women 2005 did not shed light on violence against... men; I must have accidently put that word in the wrong sentence, you have my full apologies. And secondly, whoever wrote this article used exceptionally biased and most likely uneducated websites as footnotes, so I absolutely AM making edits based on what i disagree with personally.

The last time i got hit by a male was a fight i got into in 6th grade. Since then i have been hit by my mother, female teachers, girlfriends and and many other females, all of which were unprovoked and I never hit back. I logged onto this article cause my ex-girlfriend recently gave me a bloody nose after i got into an argument with her that she was unwelcomly trespassing on my property. I, like so many other men before me, didn't press charges or even call the police. The point of I'm trying to make here, is that only half of the time men are the victims of domestic violence. The other half is women.(obvioulsy)

Honestly, do this. Go back and look at the article before i made the changes, only this time, mentally replace every mention of male with female and vice versa. The article is downright misogynist. But thats not what I did. I changed words like 'woman' to 'victim,' 'batterer' to 'offender,' and 'wife' to 'spouse.' To be honest with you i consider it an act of feminism. The article portrayed women as weak, helpless little sheep, and i elevated them to an equal status as men.

I promise to be extremely careful in the future not to pin to much of my opinion on wikipedia, but do you at least see where im coming from? I just got punched in the nose by my exgirlfriend. It's like a woman getting robbed by a man, then having that woman look up 'Robbery' on wikipedia and it ONLY talks about woman perpetrators, and male robbers are immedietly called: 'not a serious problem.'

69.243.83.42 (talk) 03:14, 29 April 2008 (UTC)Danny

doesn't it seem a little odd

... that you think it's not important to worry about CE or AD, but you took the time to find and revert all my changes, AND to write a lengthy comment on my talk page about it? There is probably something much more important needing your editing than CE vs. AD. Hope this inspires you to do some constructive editing! ;) --JaGa (talk) 03:03, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

(I'm going to get a little defensive here, so beware. No harm is intended) IMO, a line has to be drawn somewhere. If we let people go under the radar, someone would eventually run into a visible enough article where the big CE vs. AD dispute would blow up again (as it has at Jesus and Template:History of China in the past, and as it seems you may have run into yourself to a lesser degree at Freemasonry). I have a zero tolerance policy. IMO, if a user is going around switching CE to AD or vice versa, without seeking consensus first, that user is editing in a disruptive manner. Period. If I revert the disruptive editing, I personally feel I am undoing what amounts to vandalism, instead of perpetrating the era notation dispute. Whether I am justified in my belief or not, is clearly another matter :Þ. Maybe I have a double standard, so you have made me think critically about my editing. But then again, you haven't changed my opinion that your edits amounted to being disruptive (while made in good faith). :) -Andrew c [talk] 03:31, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
Well, thanks for at least giving me credit for good faith. I believe they were made in good faith. Basically, I was thinking, just as it seems proper for an article about Windsor Castle to use colour and an article about JFK to use color, it seemed proper for Christianity-related articles to use AD instead of CE. I'm not religious, but I do believe strongly in tolerance. And I thought forcing CE onto articles that would probably be edited and viewed mostly by Christians was intolerant. Mind you, the edits were done on a whim, I did no research to prove my point of view. Then again, did you make absolutely sure that each revert you made was in line with consensus for that article? I'm not trying to push one argument or another; I was just trying to remove prejudice from articles. But don't worry, I've had more than enough of that. --JaGa (talk) 04:31, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Jesus historicity controversy

Hi Andrew. I see you haven't replied to me on the relevant talk page so I was just wondering what you thought about my reason for deleting the said material and whether you still wanted it reinserted. Thanks. Roy Brumback (talk) 08:04, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Pronouns

Hi, Is the capitalization of pronouns not necessary or is it disallowed by the grammar police, whoever they may be? Thanks. History2007 (talk) 16:09, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

ok, but what I do not know is: Is the Man of Style a suggestion or is not following it against the rules. E.g. wearing colors that do not match well in public may be unpopular or against style, and the fashion designers may faint upon seeing it, but is not against the law. So what is the case here? Thanks History2007 (talk) 16:33, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Fact 1: You know more about this topic. Fact 2: I don't like their style, but will live with it, for I do not want to start a debate on grammar. Thanks. History2007 (talk) 17:58, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

GNL

Thanks for your input. You should have seen the unpleasantness and downright abuse during the GNL war at MOS talk last year ("you motherfucker", etc). We won, with a rather weak result; but it's better than nothing. TONY (talk) 13:43, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

Chair (official)

I don't understand why you made your recent edit here. Is the "longstanding title" the title of the article, or the title of the office?

Also, the article includes a somewhat intricate discussion of the various forms of the word. Your edit, IMHO, clobbered that discussion. (It has been clobbered before, or at least was put into an incoherent state by unfortunate editing.) My opinion is that the article should be "Chairman (official)" and that the discussion should cover the use of "Chair" and the other forms. Robert's Rules of Order, if I recall, uses "Chairman." Lou Sander (talk) 00:39, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Template

I've been thinking about your comments on the fertility awareness template. I thought perhaps a template for the menstrual cycle would get around the issue of appearing to define FA: I've worked up a suggestion here. I'm not sure the templates would be similar enough to treat it as a renaming; any comments on that issue or other comments on the template would be welcome.

I'm also sorry to see you're having health issues; I hope it's something transient and that you'll feel better soon. LyrlTalk C 12:16, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

User:Invocante keeps inserting ICEL draft texts for a revised English translation of the Roman Missal. ICEL strongly opposes any premature publication of these texts, as indicated on the Internet here and here and here. I have endeavoured to draw Invocante's attention to this with regard to his insertions in English versions of the Nicene Creed in current use and Gloria in Excelsis Deo. It hasn't worked. There is nothing more I can do. But an Administrator can do something - if something needs to be done. Cheers. Lima (talk) 18:03, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

I [Invocante] do not accept that in the normal understanding of things I am violating the copyright of the ICEL. The very notion of copyright on translations of texts as ancient as the creed or the Gloria is dubious but in any case there is a more substantial point. The new translation when it comes out will affect millions of the Catholic laity and the attempt to hide behind copyright is simply disingenuous. The reason for this are well given by Father Zhulsdorf in his reply to the ICEL letter referred to by Lima [http://the-hermeneutic-of-continuity.blogspot.com/2007/04/letter-from-icel.html here Indeed if we take the example of the new translation Gloria the Church has already authorised a new musical stetting of those words which is readily available from the Word Youth day website, see http://www.wyd2008.org/index.php/en/parishes_schools/wyd08_mass_setting. This availability on the WYD site tells us two things. One the text I provide was reliable and 2 the church is perfectly happy to have the text in the public domain. So on what basis does Lima claim the right to delete my entry? Lastly I might add Lim arrogantly reedits everyone else’s contribution and he might have tried speaking to me first but. Lima seems to think he has a monopoly of wisdom about the catholic church. I suggest you go to hi stalk page which is littered with people complain about his arrogance. Invocante (talk) 18:30, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. I have followed your advice and put a message on Invocante's Talk page. Drawing Invocante's attention to the matter by an edit summary was not enough. To judge by what he has just posted here, perhaps the Talk page message may not work either. I had better also follow the advice of Wikipedia:Copyright violation and raise the matter on the Talk pages of the two articles. But I'll wait a little, to see if it is necessary. Lima (talk) 18:39, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

I have no objection to the Future Uses article being deleted if my entry is allowed to remain on the current English creeds page. I have already explained several times why I think there is either a copyright problem with all 20th C versions of the creed - in which case you need to delete them all or there is no substantial problem. I have also pointed out although the ICEL has taken objection to publishing the entire new translation it seems to have no objection to publishing extracts. Lima cited one situation where the ICEL wrote to object but ignore the numerous websites where portions of the text have been cited and the ICEL has taken no objection. He is however unable to deny the fact that most of the text of the ordinary for the mass is already freely available on an official site of the Australian Catholic Church. If the ICEL should to write to Wikiepedia and requests its removal fine but I do not accept that Lima is the sole arbiter on these matters. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Invocante (talk • contribs) 12:02, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

User Lima keeps deleting my entries on the creed and the Gloria. He has entirely failed to answer the counter arguments I have given him regarding the alleged breach of copyright but instead just keeps deleting my entry. He is the one who should be given the warning not me. I have repeatedly posted reasons arguments in favour of my entries and he just ignores them and goes ahead and deletes them anyway. Invocante (talk) 13:52, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

RCC

Andrew, you are fixing the bible refs but I'm not sure you are doing what is correct. All of our references have a consistent format. You have now made these refs inconsistent with the rest of the refs on the page. Is there some policy you are following that I am not aware of? Let me know, thanks. NancyHeise (talk) 21:22, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

OK then, thank you for identifying that important problem and fixing it, I am very grateful. Good job! NancyHeise (talk) 21:29, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi Andrew,

a few days ago you send me a message telling me that i've been doing a copyright violation. to this incident I am apologize to you and also to the Wikipedia team. I am so sorry. I give you my word, that i have no idea that what i'm doing is actualy a copyright violation. I am a new user to Wikipedia, and i've just made my account a few months ago. I saw a feature wich made me able to put an image in Wikipedia page. Since i'm a new user i was curious about this, so i tried it. I thaught it's gonna be like every other site wich I can put my image in. So i am sorry for this missunderstood, wich is my fault. For the image itself, I got it from a video preview of the movie. I captured the image then edited it myself (i just wanna use it as a test) so yes, i do not have the actual copyright for it. So basically, i just wanna try the feature on Wikipedia. If my action causes so many trouble, once again I said I'm sorry.

I hope this kind of incident would never happens again.

Regards.

One question, one proposition

Probably External Links in Codex Sinaiticus needs some correction. I divided into two groups. And proposition. From time to time I work on List of New Testament uncials, and this List will complete (I use Aland, Kurt and Barbara Aland, The Text Of The New Testament: An Introduction To The Critical Editions and To The Theory and Practice Of Modern Text Criticism, 1995, Grand Rapids, Michigan). It will no longer "List of named or notable uncial codices", but 'complete List'. There is one problem, after codex 045 two boxes are empty ('Sign' and 'Name') and they will empty. What we shall do? Maybe it will better to divide into two tablets (from 01 to 045 nad from 046 to the end). It is only proposition, I will not change it without your acceptation. I am not sure is it my proposition is good. After your decision I will do the same in polish wikipedia. This list will complete in his time. Leszek Jańczuk (talk) 13:59, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Edit warring

Thank you for your kind warning. However, if you are following BRD, then note the R, in that you have been reverted. I noticed you have followed D in BRD, and I've responded in kind. Your bold removal has been reverted for the reasons listed on talk. (Clarify, please note I refer to you making the bold move since your removal came after previous discussion related to this matter further up the talk page; Wallace information replaced a different quote objected to by two editors. Therefore, your warning was unwarranted as you walked in and changed an end result of a discussion, then warned me for reverting your BRD changes.). --Faith (talk) 01:04, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

You did not "revert"; you removed text you disagreed with. There is a big difference, sorry. The text existed as the result of a discussion you didn't participate in, so it was your bold move to take it out, which was reverted once and discussion was responded to with reasons for the revert. Thank you. --Faith (talk) 01:15, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
I'm sorry, but this is my final reply to you on this subject. You did not participate in any discussion regarding any sort of addition or removal of that part of the article until you removed the text that was already in place. I performed a Wikipedia:1RR#One-revert_rule of that removal, a single revert to your bold removal of the text. Therefore, you did B, I did R, and we are both doing D on the talk page. Now, further discussion on the talk page is not only acceptable, it's necessary and I'll be happy to discuss further the changes you propose to the article. However, I don't appreciate the false warning, and continued debate, so any further discussion on that matter will have to involve an administrator. Thank you --Faith (talk) 01:24, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
Yes, exactly; as you are involved in the situation, your admin title has no bearing as you are acting as just another editor in this particular situation. You could hardly pass censure against yourself, unless you are into self-flagellation, which presents far worse concerns than need to be addressed here :) I think you simply misunderstood and misrepresented the situation; discussion is revealing we are basically on the same page, or can at least meet in the middle. --Faith (talk) 02:06, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

but we have the permission from the author and the permission to upload it on wipedia as it was uploaded for the Khmer sculpture article.

Book of Revelation Link?

Why do you persist in deleting a link to a scholarly and professional presentation of the book of Revelation? The linked page provides material that is thoroughly devoted to the understanding of the book of Revelation with 18 PowerPoint presentations resulting in around 1000 charts dealing with numerology, authorship, dating, extra-biblical quotes of the "church fathers" and more. It is not promoting some personal website but is a link filled with professional grade material by an organization that provides it freely. Is it merely a bias on your part as you clearly allow links to "sermons" by other men? Why the double standard Andrew? Just curious.

Logos

Please don't remove ALL of the logos. Not all of them are incorrect. For example; in the image Image:Martha logo.svg, the type face was a direct trace over, and did not involve an actual font whatsoever. The font was overlayed, edited to match each specific path, and made as an exact copy of the logo. Just because I uploaded it, doesn't means it's wrong. In fact, most of them are correct. Especially since most are traced directly from the bitmap version of the files. And I have no idea how the colors would have differed, referring to your comment on the other page, considering there is a "pick colors" tool, i.e. the eye dropper button that gets the same exact color...

Deletion of Hermits of Saint Bruno Page

The Hermits of Saint Bruno are listed in the Official Traditional Catholic Directory under Religious Orders (P 115). Preview of book can be seen here: http://books.google.com/books?id=giA8iihQAT8C&printsec=frontcover&sig=x0lniO29urnVG5zrbE7ZUasp0Gc&source=gbs_book_other_versions_r&cad=0_1 or one can just be purchased.

Beside myself in the Diocese of Orlando, there is a Hermit of Saint Bruno who was just recognized on Wednesday, June 4th by Cardinal Archbishop Sean O’Malley. The occasion is the celebration of a Mass of Consecration for a man who wishes to take perpetual vows as a religious hermit for the Archdiocese of Boston. That man is Brother Benedict Joseph Connelly. (Which was one of the listed Hermitages). I just found an online Catholic Bulletin to use as reference. can be read here: http://parishbulletin.com/Bulletins/1096/060108MaryNewton.pdf

I had planned to add the Diocese of each hermitage that has been Canonically recognized by either Canon 603 or are a Consecrated Religious, as I am. But I was writing the Fraternity to see if I could get a list of all recognized hermitages. As you can imagine this takes time since I am the only hermit within the fraternity with permission to have computer access.

If the page could be returned I will add the reference to the Catholic Directory and the Consecration Notices of the hermits from the Dioceses as I find them online. I can reference Benedictine and M.I. documents for myself as well, but they are hardcopy and not online. And more references will appear like a link to my hermitage in the Orlando Diocese.

If you are able to return the deleted page I will slowly build on it. I leave it in God's hands.

Thank you for your time. Regardless of your decision, God Bless you. Rev. Michael Anthony, H.S.B., D.D. (talk) 21:31 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Manuscripts and categories

That is fine.

I found them in a very full "Category:Ancient Roman Christianity" and sought a more specific category for them.

As I under stand you, you won't mind leaving manuscripts in "Ancient Christian texts" if they are manuscripts of works later than the New Testament books.

"Category:Ancient Christian texts" is within "Category:Christian texts" and "Category:Ancient Roman Christianity" --Carlaude (talk) 17:07, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Example-- Codex Hierosolymitanus
Non-manuscript example-- Canons of Hippolytus
I agree on all points except that until there is a "proper manuscript category" I think it better to have any in "Ancient Christian texts" than not. This one at least make clear from the name it is a particular manuscript. --Carlaude (talk) 17:48, 13 June 2008 (UTC)


Hermits of Saint Bruno

Would you please take a look at the page at User:Carthusian hermit/Hermits of Saint Bruno and see if it meets the standards for publication. I am still a long way from completing the page and have written the appropriate organizations for permission to list other hermitages.

I hav elisted some of the parish and diocese bulletins that list the HSB and/or their hermits.

Please list any deficiencies that you see. This way I can see if I am on the correct path, before I continue to work on the page. Thank you for your time. God Bless you. Rev. Michael Anthony, H.S.B., D.D.--Carthusian hermit (talk) 20:53, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

{NEW} —Preceding unsigned comment added by Carthusian hermit (talk • contribs) 22:14, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

I am going to continue to work on the Hermits of Saint Bruno. But how is Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest and all its associtaed orders that have pages valid when HSB have more references, multiple diocese support and is older than their organization. I just want to know so I can look for what is required to meet all regulations. They do not even have one reference when we have many. I know you do not count those published by the Church, but at least we have those. Thank you, I plan to get back to work on the page when released from hospital. Then I can start to look through archival newspaper articles and such.

I pray you enjoy your vactaion. --Carthusian hermit (talk) 22:10, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

Task force recruitment

Hi, I'm commenting here because I worked with you on emergency contraception, and you seem familiar enough I think I've seen you on other birth control, articles, too. I've proposed a task force to provide a discussion place for articles on methods of birth control, and was hoping you would be interested in joining. If you're interested, please add your name to the proposal: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Medicine/Task forces#Reproductive medicine. LyrlTalk C 01:00, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Great work at Misogyny

Good on you for being consistent in upholding the policies at Misogyny. It's a thankless task. Although I'd let many of the edits stand myself, I really only have that luxury because someone is willing to accept some degree of conflict. I'm just feeling a little tired playing the same role myself at other articles, so I thought I'd drop you a note to say at least I appreciate what you're doing. Your actions do reflect what the wider community would like someone to be doing at the page.

I've read a fair bit of Millet, by the way. She's fun to read, however, she sounds exactly like any unsourced POV editor at Wiki. Were it not for the fact that she was published and has been very widely cited, we could not accept her comments at Wiki. The edits you keep removing "sound" exactly like Millet, it's precisely the sort of thing she would say. However, you're quite right, unless someone has actually said these things, we can't actually accept them.

Before writing up Millet, I want to find more tightly argued feminist text. Naomi Wolf strikes me as a suitable source. I actually like her as a person, though I disagree with many of her ideals. Her televised interview with Harvey Mansfield is just outstanding (link at Manliness). Alastair Haines (talk) 03:48, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

deleting talk page comment

Andrew, I did not review everything on Biblical Inerrancy, but are you deleting another editor's comment from the discussion page? Unless it is highly offensive, which I did not see, what is the reasoning? It seems like a strange action for you that surprises me. --Storm Rider (talk) 17:30, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

I withdraw my question. No much after I added this question I found myself deleting a rather long diatribe on a discussion page for the Bible regarding Obama. Shortly after that I read your comment on Faith's home page; I should have just read everything first or kept my mouth (fingers) quiet. Cheers! --Storm Rider (talk) 17:49, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

What is going on..

Apparently you like to follow me around and warn me on my talk page when you don't like something I've done. This is what.. the 3rd time you've run into me? Whatever, I'm not assuming bad faith.. yet. You seem to have a problem with my edits. Quite frankly, I'm flattered. Perhaps you would understand what I was doing after reading my replys. When I see a troll like that, who has an agenda, what do you expect? For the sake of the article, it's better if he doesn't edit at this point. I was referring specifically to the Criticism of Christianity article, and my intention was not to bite, or scare the guy. He can edit whatever he wants. But until he gets a grasp on our policies and guidelines, handling a topic that he feels particularly strong about is not a good idea. You saw his comment.. that kind of attitude has no place here. --Pwnage8 (talk) 02:28, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

I honestly didn't recall warning you all the way back in January (and it seems I have only edited your talk page 2 times, so I'm unclear what this third run-in you are referring to is). Both instances, you edited articles that are on my watchlist. We may share similar interests or it could be coincidence, but your implied accusations of wikistalking are unfounded. I want to make it clear I wasn't trying to put you on the spot or make you feel bad or scold you or anything. I just wanted to say "It isn't nice to discourage new editors for editing". If you think I am out of line, please go to WP:ANI and ask an uninvolved admin to review my behavior. As for the anon, I guess we disagree on whether they are a troll or not. It isn't clear to me that they were editing in a disruptive fashion. It is always better in my opinion to assume good faith and try to steer new users towards a path to becoming a productive editor. Anyway, good luck in the future, and I'm sure our paths will cross again (it is a small world).-Andrew c [talk] 03:03, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
Eh.. I don't really think you're stalking me, per se, I just thought something was off with your tone.. and maybe, just maybe, there is something behind that. The third encounter I'm referring to is that human rights template thing. I think we both agree with respect to the anon, we just differ on how we would treat the situation. Whatever, I'm passionate about Wikipedia, and I can get a bit carried away sometimes. This civility stuff comes up every now and then on my talk page :P --Pwnage8 (talk) 03:16, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Inline Citation Help

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for the help on the inline citation re: 2nd Temple Period in Ancient Israel (Ezra). Regards, Rcjavid (talk) 12:21, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deleting categories

Thanks your note.

I do not think I was not aware of speedy criteria at WP:CFDS.

Assuming I do this and such next time how do I get someone to care it out-- I mean the bot moving the categories in articles once the deletion goes through.

I have come across things like Category:Apostle John where they did go thru the full discussion and agreed to delete/rename -- but no one had done it, or even part of it.--Carlaude (talk) 23:39, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

Move Que me quedes tú

 Done

Hey there, I would like to ask you a favour of moving the page Que me quedes tú to its official title of Que Me Quedes Tú, thanks a lot =) Kotakkasut (talk) 11:51, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Early Versions

I think we need to create a new section in New Testament - Early Versions of New Testament, and articles about Syriac Versions of New Testament, Coptic Versions etc. Of course we have Coptic versions of the Bible (but not Syriac versions of the Bible), and there is some problem. I can not write about Old Testament, it is not my field (I have not books). I know nothing about Coptic translations of Old Testament. I think, it will better if we will write separate articles for Old and New Testament. Articles will more clear, and we will have not complications with translation of translations (i.e. translations of Septuagint). For now I want create article "Syriac Versions of New Testament". Coptic maybe in October or November. Leszek Jańczuk (talk) 01:08, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Tim and vandalism

Andrew, given these two edits (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Shituf&diff=223539106&oldid=223537299, http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Shituf&diff=223539293&oldid=223539106), would you please warn Tim on his talk page not to persist in his vandalism? Thanks. -LisaLiel (talk) 14:59, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

I'm not taking sides here. Tim, at worst, may have been editing to prove a WP:POINT, but I don't think his edits qualify as "vandalism". You yourself used the "undo" function 7 times in 25 hours. Anyway, the article is protected so that neither one of you can do damage. Be glad that you guys haven't been blocked for 3RR. And try to play nice and work together on the talk page. Good luck to you both (seems like you'll need it ;p)-Andrew c [talk] 15:06, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Consensus reached on Shituf - Please unprotect

Hi Andrew. Tim and I have reached a consensus on the Shituf article. You can view the consensus at Talk:Shituf#Let.27s_Keep_This_Simple.2C_for_everyone.27s_sake. It consists of the version here, with the first paragraph changed to this:

Shituf is the term used in Jewish law for worship of the God of Israel with an association of external powers, deities, or internal aspects. Any worship deemed by Judaism to fall short of pure monotheism is considered avodah zarah ("strange worship" or "idolatry"), and is forbidden both to Jews and to non-Jews, but shituf is a lesser form of avodah zarah which some rabbinic authorities consider to be permissible for non-Jews, since it does include worship of the One God of Israel.

And with a See Also section that includes Trinitarianism, Arianism and Tritheism.

If you unlock the page, we can make that edit and be done. -LisaLiel (talk) 21:49, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
