User talk:TrumpetPower!

Welcome!

Hello, TrumpetPower!, Welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope you like working here and want to continue. If you need help on how to name new articles, look at Naming Conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the Manual of Style. If you need general help, look at Help and the FAQ, and if you can't find your answer there, check the Village pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and the Policy Library.

Additional tips:

Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:

If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills, try the Sandbox.
Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
You might want to add yourself to the New User Log
If your first language isn't English, try Wikipedia:Contributing to articles outside your native language

Happy editing!

Josephus edit summary[edit]

Regarding this edit summary [1]: regardless of any disagreement on content please do not engage in personal attacks and incivil assumptions of bad faith, these are not acceptable in wikipedia. Please review WP:AGF WP:NPA and WP:CIVIL before proceeding. Make your case, but don't attack the other person. Thanks. --Doc ^ask? 17:44, 16 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Good to meet you[edit]

It's good to have you around on the 'Jesus" pages. Once you get the hang of the "can you cite that" questions - which are a good thing and keep the article pretty on track - real changes can be made and most editors are happy to accept a obviously NPOV compromise. Just remember - the "cite" thing works both ways - if you're not sure ask where they got their reference from! Sophia^TalkTCF 18:12, 20 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Wiggle room" - I shall use that one sometime as it really makes me chuckle! Sophia^TalkTCF 18:34, 20 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Removing AD from articles[edit]

Hi, TrumpetPower! Regarding a recent edit you made, I'd just like to tell you that the Arbitration Committee ruled that AD and CE are both acceptable, and that editors are not to start changing what is already there. (The same goes for American and British spellings, by the way.) Please respect that. Thanks. AnnH ♫ 20:44, 20 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WP:3RR[edit]

Just to inform you...you have been reported for violation (with Str1977) of the 3 revert rule...you can see the report here. KHM03 ^(talk) 22:20, 20 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

RfC[edit]

Hi Ben - I've decided to put an RfC together about the behaviour of the editors on the Christianity/Historical/Historicity/Jesus-Myth pages. I've had enough of this "give us quotes - no they're no good" wheel warring that is going on - this isn't the first time this has happened. If we are going to have the scholar vs scholar fight we need an external referee. If you have a chance take a look at the references they give. Bede.org and bible college research backs up a lot of it so if that's how they want to play things it could get interesting. Sophia^TalkTCF 13:27, 21 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I thought your joke was funny - if we can't have a laugh now and then there's no point doing this! Sophia^TalkTCF 23:57, 21 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Historicity of Jesus[edit]

The sentence fragment you added..."...established critical scholarship maintains that the passage refers to docetism, which they consider an unrelated issue..." is a bit confsuing to me...who are "they"? Maybe you could clarify the language a bit. Thanks...KHM03 (talk) 15:41, 21 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
