:perhaps a sub-page or sub-section with a heading: "Articles that Mention Mormonism"? The page has already been re-named since it's inception once, but I think a better name would be "List of Articles that reference Mormonism." Similar pages are in the works for Catholicism and Orthodoxy, etc. Visorstuff 16:32, 5 Dec 2003 (UTC)
thread_title: Purpose of article

message: I appreciate the work done on this article. However, I have a few pointers to mention that could help prevent it from winding up on Votes for Deletion.
The intro of this article needs to be changed. It should ONLY describe the purpose and lay out of this article. It should NOT make requests of users. 
Furthermore, quick work needs to be done refining the list. It is lengthy and unruly. Too many things listed don't belong here. Categories within the article need to be laid out more specifically. Kingturtle 01:13, 5 Dec 2003 (UTC)
replies: text: Sounds good. Feedback is good, and I've only started with the refining of the lists and categories. This has taken a lot of time - perhaps I posted the page prematurely. Visorstuff 16:32, 5 Dec 2003 (UTC)
replies: text: I commend the workers on this article. In a month and a half it has really taken shape. Kingturtle 21:54, 25 Jan 2004 (UTC)

message: Comments on overall feedback thus far: I've spent a considerable amount of time compiling pages that deal with various religious organizations, (Mormonism, Scientology, Catholicism, Orthodoxy, etc., to make it easier for those who have specific interest in these subjects to find and edit them, helping the Wikipedia community as a whole. However, I also don't want this to be controversial, as it is solely a tool since the search feature is pretty flimsy though Google (see Wikipedia:Village pump). My academic interests is in religions (more specifically studies in American religion), and I would like to see a better way to track these religions. Maybe I should delete myself and add to a subpage of my own page? However, I'd like the page to stay as it's own. Please let me know what you all think. It's not as easy as it seems to compile such a list. Visorstuff 16:32, 5 Dec 2003 (UTC)

thread_title: Page History

message: The information on this page should probably be incorporated into the new Wikipedia categorization system. I'm going to try to use a Mormonism categorization system that roughly follows the outline of this page. COGDEN 19:22, 8 Jun 2004 (UTC)

message: I'm slowly working on articles for each of the LDS Relief Society Presidents.  Would a category by that name be appropriate or should they go into "Leaders?"  WBardwin 23:00, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  Relief Society Presidents  

message: I started alphabetizing the leaders section/creating two subsections in each group.  Do you think this is worthwhile?  Placing entries in "order" should make it easier to find items/names and might make it easier for new articles to be inserted.   WBardwin 07:10, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I think alphabetizing is a useful action.--andersonpd 17:41, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Alphabetizing Names and Topics 

message: It's hard to rename a list.  In light of the self-reference tag, how about ---
::List of topics about Mormonism
::List of Mormon related topics
::Mormon subjects by category
::Mormon topics by category
::Index of topics about Mormonism
::Resource index about Mormonism
or should we move the page into the LDS project pages and keep the present name? WBardwin 00:47, 12 November 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Name Tag 

message: The Root page concept is now taking shape with forward and backward linking. Properly used it would reduce this page to just ten or twenty branch links, each themselves root pages for a further ten or twenty branches. This eliminates the need for complete listing, and facilitates easy navigation backwards or forwards. --Lindosland 18:41, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cleanup - please adopt the [[Root page]] concept 

message: What would be the appropriate placement for the new sub-articles on Joseph Smith, Jr.?  Under his name, under Presidents of the Church, or should we have a new subcategory Origins of the Latter Day Saint Movement?  Ideas?  WBardwin 02:56, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  New Joseph Smith articles 

message: There's long been talk of a ritual of the Mormons in which the dead are 'converted' to Mormonism. It's reputed to be one of the reasons for their genealogical works. From what I've heard, it's got somethign to do with 'sealing them to the church'. Where's the relevant article on it? thanks. ThuranX 06:24, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

message: This page does not belong in article space as it is.  It should either be stripped of its self-references (ie, name it "List of LDS topics", remove references to "Wikipedia" and "articles") or it should be moved to WP: space. --B (talk) 04:31, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
