Sinaiticism

Level-headedness on the internet? On Wikipedia!? On AfD, at that?! Sir, I'll have you know that April Fool's Day was several days ago! I urge you to snap out of it and become a hot-headed troll like the rest of us - it's miscreants like you that convince members of the old guard that some good remains in the human race, and next thing you know they're lettin' their ol' guard down, and next thing they know, they find themselves pwned by a noobey. :-D (But, seriously now, thank you for participating - AfD can use more folk like yourself) --Action Jackson IV 10:06, 4 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

Usage of Template:Main

Hi! I deleted the {{main}}s that you put in John Calvin's view of Scripture and Institutes of the Christian Religion and thought I had better explain my actions to you. According to that template's documentation, it should not be used at the top of articles. It is intended for linking sub-articles from a central article, not back to that central article. So for instance, John Calvin might include a section on the Institutes, which summarizes the full article covering Calvin's magnum opus, with a {{main|Institutes of the Christian Religion}} at the top of the section. A sub-article, on the other hand, needn't have a tag referring back to the central article, though certainly the connections-cum-wikilinks should be apparent in the sub-article lede. Anyway, thanks for your many contributions! --Flex (talk|contribs) 15:23, 9 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Dealing with vandalism

Hi StAnselm,

I see that you reverted some vandalism at Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church. You might want to check out Wikipedia:Vandalism for more info about dealing with vandals. I find the warning templates particularly useful. Blarneytherinosaur talk 03:07, 10 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Mark

I don't know why is wrong with them either, and that's because no one has bothered to say. All that has been said is that I am forcing an as yet unidentified pov into the article, which just seems like an immature way to "argue" against the edits without being useful or helpful. That's for being a nice source of rationality in the process. I restored the edits just before you made the initiative in talk, mostly so people would get talking about it (I mean the actualy points, you see). Lostcaesar 07:34, 10 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Denomination editing

I notice that you've got some denominations down on your list of pages to expand. I thought you might find the following useful: Wikipedia:WikiProject_Calvinism#Denomination articles -- especially the template which has some useful headings for that sort of thing. Also, while I'm noticing things, I also notice that you're more active on Calvinism-related pages than many of the people in WikiProject Calvinism are. Thanks!  :) In fact, when I look, I think the PCA (Australia) might be one of the biggest contributors :).

Geoffrey Blackburn

Hi, your article says a fair bit about Geoffrey but it doesn't really assert notability - all the links do document facts, but none of them point back to material written about Blackburn - they are about the various organisations he is/was a part of.

Has anyone written about him? If not, I really think he may not be sufficiently notable for inclusion.Garrie 05:37, 20 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Geoffrey Blackburn

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Geoffrey Blackburn, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Geoffrey Blackburn

Put me down as someone who knows Dr Geoffrey Blackburn personally and am surprised - even from the material St Anselm has included in the article about him - that anyone would doubt his notability. As St Anselm wrote, he's one of the half dozen best-known people in his denomination. And is known, I think, worldwide because ot his status in the Baptist World Alliance (if I recall I read somewhere he was a world vice-president). There's a joke around Presbyterian and Baptist circles among clergy that they want 'Geoff' as they call him affectionately to conduct their funerals (he's 90-something and still in active ministry with Scots' Church, Melbourne!). I'll revisit the article and see if I can do a little bit of extra work on it. Ron Cameron 04:59, 3 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Poythress

I saw that you wanted to create an article on Vern Poythress. I have done so, and if you have time, I'd appreciate you helping to help fill it out (e.g., a section on his thought, links to the listed books and articles from frame-poythress.org, a free picture, etc.). In particular, I'd like to get an interesting fact or two in there that would make it a good candidate for WP:DYK, but we'll have to move fast to make it in the 5 day time limit! --Flex (talk/contribs) 17:13, 4 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Unfulfilled predictions

Hi Anselm, I would really appreciate it if you read some of my comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Unfulfilled historical predictions by Christians regarding the potential future of the article, including the criteria I have set up. --One Salient Oversight 11:30, 7 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Vern Poythress

  On 9 May, 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Vern Poythress, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

Hi, my supervisor is a graduate of Westminster -- John Davies. He's the principal of the Presbyterian Theological Centre here in Sydney.

Feel free to build up that page. My project is to make a good list of theological journals, including internal links and web-links. To place links on all references to those journals, and to create stubs for journals cited in existing articles.

Two points

  • Just dropped by to ask if you could send me a copy of your honours thesis, when it's all done.
  • Saw the bot comments above. That bot needs reprogramming (or speedy deletion, lol). It's good Wiki takes copyright seriously, but I find it a real drag rephrasing and rereferencing copyright rationales for images. I emailed an academic for a personal photo. He kindly provided one. Then someone removed it, saying he hadn't explicitly given Gnu license permission. Now I have to hassle him again. Alastair Haines 06:19, 26 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

IF YOU COLD HELP ME IN ANY WAY

Hi! First I would really thank wikipedia and, foremost, the people that make it going - people like you. I come from a village in Herzegovina, and throughout this century it has vittnesed many atrosities. So I desided to make a page about it, on wikipedia. Among the thing that I wrote is the genocide aginst the serbs in 1941, in Prebilovci. And on the title I used genocide - a user named rijeka, from croatia, has just removed that bit.

600 women and children from my village, were in 1941 slaughtered and thrown into pits near surmanci, the place were virgin mary is said to have apeared. I wrote abut this -- and rijeca removed that bit. Maby he just doesn't want people nowing about it -- that virgin maty apears to some vroats near were they cilled serbs during a genocide.

I've also created a page valled Prebilovci Massacre, and because of that, he claims, has removed a great bit of my article on Prebilovci. Among that article, he has removed of what happended in 1991, the bodies of thoose who were massacred in 1941 were blown up by a bomb.

I just think this is unfair. I see it this way: that's he's missusing his power on wikipedia. Chek it put yourself, then contact me and say what do you think.

Yours Very Thruly. —Preceding unsigned comment added by WebsterMasters (talkcontribs) 15:03, 5 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
