Fair use rationale for Image:LifeWay Christian Resources Campus.jpg
editImage:LifeWay Christian Resources Campus.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Merged content issues
editHello, in the Finance and Business Services subsection there is content concerning the conference center and the boys and girls camp. The last two are referenced, the first is not, and the problem is that neither source identifies Lifeway as the owner/operator. Those in the know may not need this but as a worldwide encyclopedia there needs to be a source to corroborate ownership. Otr500 (talk) 23:12, 13 March 2018 (UTC)
Some proposed changes
editThis edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. Some or all of the changes weren't supported by neutral, independent, reliable sources. Consider re-submitting with content based on media, books and scholarly works. |
Information to be added or removed: In 1891, James Marion Frost, a 43-year-old pastor, started the company that is now known as LifeWay Christian Resources. The business began, after receiving approval from the Southern Baptist Convention, in a small office funded in part by money borrowed from his wife. Later that year, it became the Sunday School Board of the Southern Baptist Convention, with Frost as its first executive secretary (now called president). The Baptist Sunday School Board was founded in the pastor’s study of the 1884 Sanctuary of First Baptist Church, Nashville, Tennessee, located at the corner of 7th Avenue and Broadway.[1] Over the next century, the board expanded its activities well beyond Sunday School material. To reflect its broadening focus, the board changed its name to LifeWay Christian Resources in 1998.[2] The LifeWay name had been used in one form or another as a brand name since 1971. LifeWay's ministries include the production of Bibles, Bible study curriculum, books, church supplies, church music, student camps, and events.[3] [4] The company operates more than 170 LifeWay Christian Stores throughout the United States, as well as Ridgecrest Christian Conference Center in North Carolina.[5] LifeWay is a 501(c)(3) religious nonprofit organization that receives no funding from the denomination and reinvests income above operating expenses in mission work and other ministries around the world.
Explanation of issue: You might want to consider adding information to the history section since there isn't much information available on this page.
