Talk:Latter-day Saint

message: Is anyone opposed to incorporating this page with Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and to making this a disambig page to differentiate between Latter-day Saint and Latter Day Saint? -- Kwekubo 12:23, 21 Mar 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: This page was created after much discussion (you may want to look at some of the history from the History of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints pages by COGDEN and others), and should remain, not be incorporated into another page. In other words at this point, there are a number of us who would oppose such action. -Visorstuff 22:01, 21 Mar 2004 (UTC)

message: I'm pretty certain the LDS Church is not "one of the fastest growing churches in the world" by any objective measure.  Also, it is questionable whether "It is the most far reaching world religion originating in the United States".  Numerically, the Assembly of God (starting in Topeka KS in 1914, I believe, headquartered in Springfield, MO today) is far larger at 35 million or so.  The Seventh-Day Adventists are larger as well.  If the statement means far-reaching doctrinally, then yes, I'd agree, but that's a matter for opinion and not for an encyclopedia.
OK to edit? -Novel-Technology, April 25 2005

replies: text: Newsweek and Time both made these claims, as do other publications/websites including Adherents.com. Not sure why the question was not answered earlier. -Visorstuff 18:15, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  Some Innacuracies 

message: Links to a generic search page. Is that a legitamate link??Mikereichold
:No. It actually linked to a 404 page within the LDS site. It was another "LSD" edit... har har har... at least they could make the vandalism funny. I mean, come on. On a related note, though, there are too many external links listed here. Links within www.lds.org can be trimmed, some of the non-official sites don't need to be listed (per WP:NOT, we're not Google), and is it really necessary to list the homepage for every different language/nation? I'm going to sift through the first two categories a little; input is welcome, as always. Deadsalmon 07:48, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  LDS Style Guide 

message: In my understanding, books are only listed if they are used as references or are authored by the article's subject. Most of the books mentioned here don't fall under either category, and while the Book of Mormon is of obvious importance, we don't list versions of the Bible under Christianity or the Qu'ran at Islam. I've removed this section because of this. Tijuana Brass¡Épa! 23:38, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Further reading" 

message: Having two pages for the same thing is completely confusing and also hinders other languages links.
An example: from the howard hughes site ther eis a link to this wiki, and there is just a dansk link, no german,spanish or anything else.
If somebody wants to have two versions, of the same thing he(/she could create it on another wiki ...
: I've suggested merging the articles together as this page contains no relevent information that isn't in the Latter Day Saint article. User:kristmace 16 August 2006
:: Oppose as they are not the same thing - however, we should edit the articles to more clearly establish the differences. --Trödel 15:00, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: I would firmly support a complete re-write if a merger is not agreeable as this is a vague and confusing article. The re-write should be short, and clearly linked to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saint page, which is a proper article on church beliefs and facts. Kristmace 21:27, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
