Talk:Altar cloth

message: An altar cloth is not a concept unique to Wiccans or neopagans. The article should be renamed, expanded to include all common uses, or deleted. Fuzzypeg 01:38, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: I see no reason whatsoever. I would suggest that "Altar cloth" is the more common term, just from reading through the Altar Linens article where the term "cloth" is used several times. When doing the merge I would preferably do away with most of the "colour symbolism" section, which I find to be virtually without value. See my previous comments on this page for more info about this. Fuzzypeg☻ 04:14, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

text: I don't see any reason not to merge unless Altar Linens is a sacred term within the context of the Catholic church. Otherwise both usages can be taken care of here, and the non-capitalized term should be favored. -- nae'blis (talk) 16:03, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The articles have now been merged. It had been almost a month, with no objections at either article. We do need sources, however, badly. -- nae'blis (talk) 21:04, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

I noticed the article was sadly lacking in this respect... I'll leave the placement of images up to the people who are working on this page (as you will know more which are needed and where to place them than I) but I took the liberty of looking up some possibly helpful ones for you. 
As these are generally images of the altars and not specifically the cloths upon them, they may need cropping to make them more useful for the article; just let me know which ones you'd like cropped and I'll take care of it for you. I can also upload the flickr images to Commons and post them here when done if they are at all useful. Cheers, — Editor at Large(speak) 01:21, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
