editSuggestions;
- The best title: De Doctrina Christiana (Milton), since this is the title of the ms.
- "currently two translations of the work; Charles R. Sumner's and John Carey's." Put each title, place and date in separate footnotes.
- "The only edition of Christian Doctrine" The only manuscript. "Edition" in this context would signify a printed edition.
- "London's Old State Paper Office" Unidentifiable under this name.
- "Secretary of Foreign Tongues" to the Council of State
- "theological "tracate"" Possibly so in original. "Tractate" intended.
- "in 1677 he was pressured by the British government" In 1677 there was only an English government and a Scottish one.
- "there is a minority line of criticism that seeks" A minority line is unlikely to be doing the seeking.
- "he believed that there was a "progress" to relying on the Bible completely." We understand that Milton has used "progress" in some context concerning scriptural authority, but no inmformation is transferred.
These points needn't be debated: they can be edited in or ignored. --Wetman (talk) 23:06, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
Help!
editThis is a plea for advice on how to prevent this article from continuing to show up on my watchlist. I have already removed the article -- under its current title -- from my watchlist ; but, apparently because I edited the article when it was under a former title (with different capitalization), it keeps showing up in, and dominating displays of, changes to articles on my watchlist.
One other factor may have complicated things. I was in the process of fixing some spelling mistakes when someone else changed the name of the article "underfoot" as it were. When I tried to save the spelling fixes, the attempt failed, reporting that someone else had been editing "underfoot" (can't remember if that was the exact word used).
I can't access the article under the name I edited it under, because a redirection forces display of the article under the new name. At least, I don't know how to access it under the old name.
Any advice or help in fixing this will be appreciated. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Publius3 (talk • contribs) 03:47, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
