I have added the 'cleanup' tag for this page, because it seems just a tad bit messy and disorganized to me. Aesha 20:45, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Do we really need seperate articles on Rainbow, DeMolay, Job's Daughters, and Triangle?  Why not merge them into one article on "Masonic Youth Organizations"? Blueboar 19:23, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think we do need the separate ones: combining them would be too unwieldly, in my opinion.--SarekOfVulcan 12:35, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think this is a resolved and dead issue at this point, and we won't be merging.  The MYO article actually got AfDed. MSJapan 19:56, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  cult no way 

message: I'm new to Wiki and don't want to mess anything up, but why isn't there a reference to IOJD in the FreeMason's article? 168.251.194.18 (talk) 17:06, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: There is -- check out the  template in the upper right.
i am in jobies an who ever wrote this is right, we are no cult, jobies is to teach girls life skills and leadership. though we also learn about job, a man who was very faithful and the adversary tried his faith sending him through test after test, even killing his sons and daughters, taking away his riches, killing his wife, and he still kept his faith in god and in the end his richesness prevailed.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.121.116.181 (talk) 04:50, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Masonic Reference? 

message: Most people judge Job's Daughters by the Masonic History, and believe that it is some sort of cult. However, it is not. There is not even the slightest chance that Job's Daughters are a cult. It is basicly like a soritey, or guild. an organization that used to thrive, and is now slowly deminishing due to many reasoins- but the  most common is the fact that Job's daughters is not a cult.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.151.211.240 (talk) 00:30, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Missunderstood 

message: In 1934, the age range was 13-20. http://books.google.com/books?id=AugWAQAAIAAJ&q="Job's+Daughters"&dq="Job's+Daughters" However, someone just changed the age range at the founding to be 13-18. Does anyone actually have a source establishing what the ages were at the time? Thanks. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 20:34, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

message: My name is Cindy Meredith Clark I am Past Honored Queen of Bethel #2 in Madeira Beach Florida, I believe in 1975 or 1976, my sisters Brenda Meredith Stone, and Tammy Meredith Brunaugh held Senior and Junior Princess at the same time. I am curious as well as they are to see if 3 Sisters held the top 3 positions together other than us at any Bethel in the United States.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 104.8.12.145 (talk) 19:14, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: that's very interesting.  unfortunately, Wikipedia isn't a place to find that kind of detail.  i hope you were able to find the information you were looking for.Colbey84 (talk) 15:41, 12 November 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Sisters who have held the top 3 offices of Honored Queen, Senior Princess, Junior Princess 

message: while the info in this section is interesting and should be included, i found the writing to be quite opinionated.  some examples:
* "has a penchant for getting into legal battles and causing controversy throughout the Masonic world"
* "causing financial harm to the organization"
* "decided to try it again"
* "tales of corruption and bullying"
* "because its administrators felt at risk speaking out"
* "pokes good-natured fun"
in general, this section could use a good edit, but it is the expressed opinions that are most concerning as a WP article.  if these phrases are direct quotes from reliable sources, they should be written AS direct quotes.  (a vague reference somewhere in the paragraph should not be used for opinions.)
and, while at least some of this info is relevant, this phrase reads like an advertisement (and is also vaguely opinion):
* "Ms. Yoast makes custom, one-off designs that do not use any registered JDI trademarks for members, Bethels, Grand Bethels, and the Supreme Guardian Council at her sites "Sweet JoRaDe"[12] and "Pink Power Printing."
since i see some huffing about who can or should edit on this page, i won't edit anything, but will leave this as a suggestion.Colbey84 (talk) 15:40, 12 November 2017 (UTC)
