Is this page needed? edit
This page has little information, and what it does have is essentially all already in the main article for The Church of Jesus Christ. Unless there is going to be way more information added to both pages, that would make the main article too long without this separate branch-off article, do we really need this page? I am posting this comment the pages for both Quorum of Twelve Apostles (The Church of Jesus Christ) and History of The Church of Jesus Christ; it applies equally to both. - Reaverdrop (talk/nl) 22:53, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- In it's current state, I don't think this page is necessary. If it could be expanded to give a more complete history of the quorum, i.e. historical members and the dates they were in the quorum, etc.—this page might have more of a reason for existing. In it's current state it looks like a candidate for merging or deletion. Rich Uncle Skeleton (talk) 03:02, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- There's no real scope for merging, since it looks like this page is already duplicated verbatim for the parallel passage on the main article, or at least in its state at a recent point of editing. Certainly if it were to have information such as a listing of all the members of the quorum in the church's history, with a brief statement of the most pertinent information for that apostle where merited, that would be more information than would be appropriate on the main page, and would justify this one - but unless such information is forthcoming, I agree this page is a good candidate for deletion, without prejudice to re-creation at some future date if it is created with enough independent information. - Reaverdrop (talk/nl) 03:07, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- I'll admit the page is small and needs a lot of work, but there is no reason not to add information and expand the page and leave it right where it is. Jcg5029 01:49, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
- history would be great, more explanations on their responsibilities etc (it needs work but its important) Jcg5029 01:50, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Recent additions edit
Good to see this page being expanded re: history. That's the kind of thing that I think justifies the page's existence as separate from Quorum of the Twelve. Rich Uncle Skeleton (talk) 21:18, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
- Ditto. - Reaverdrop (talk/nl) 15:30, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks guys, I appreciate that. It just took awhile because I am really busy. Longer than I wanted for sure. Jcg5029 19:33, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

word for new apostles edit
hello, what is the correct term? Is a new apostle elected? ordained? anointed? placed by revelation? --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 16:51, 8 April 2019 (UTC)
