Talk:Family History Center (LDS Church)

message: I believe Family History Centers contain enough information and are inportant enough to Geneological Research to warrant their own article.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnpacklambert (talk • contribs) 01:37, 8 July 2007
:I agree that it's not a good candidate for speedy deletion. Perhaps an WP:AFD discussion would be more appropriate. –SESmith 07:02, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It is unlikely that this article will grow too much beyond what is currently found in the stub, and it seems that it's notability will continue to be challenged. I think that this material is useful enough to appear somewhere on WP, but I'm not sure that it merits a standalone article right now. Perhaps it would be helpful to merge it into Family History Library, with Family History Center (LDS Church) being left as a redirect to that article. Of course this wouldn't preclude a separate article in the future if the section eventually became big enough to merit it. -- 71.35.46.20 23:19, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, I agree with that. The article on Family History Library already contains most all of the info in this article. –SESmith 00:15, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Olde discussion

message: I propose that FamilySearch be merged into Family History Center (LDS Church). I think that the content in the FamilySearch article can easily be explained in the context of Bar, and the Family History Center (LDS Church) article is of a reasonable size that the merging of FamilySearch will not cause any problems as far as article size or undue weight is concerned.

replies: text: No, not a good idea, for the same reason listed at Talk:FamilySearch#Merger proposal, except that I think no merge should happen in either direction, given the admittedly interrelated, yet distinct, histories of these organizations. -- 208.81.184.4 (talk) 18:12, 14 March 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed! Bad idea to merge.  Many people are interested in 'genealogy' and 'family history' -- encyclopedic information here will be expanding, not contracting. -- Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 12:15, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

message: Added to the list are the BYU FamilySearch History Library, and the Riverton Utah FamilySearch History Library. As many know, the sites have been standardized, under the umbrella of FamilySearch.org -- Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 23:23, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: This is currently consistent with MOS:LDS.  Although archived, this issue has been discussed previously at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Latter Day Saints#changes based on recent style request from LDS Church? Consensus change of the MOS should be arrived at before such changes are made. ChristensenMJ (talk) 18:38, 8 April 2020 (UTC)
