Talk:Bible Numerics

message: This page used to redirect to Bible code. Bible code is actually a very different topic. A more relevant article to redirect to is Ivan Panin (the person who discovered or invented Bible Numerics), since it does at this stage deal with Bible Numerics (although not in great detail). Possibly in the future I will write an actual Bible Numerics article instead. Markdarb 10:55, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

message: In the past few days, I have done a lot of work on this article to make it more accurate, objective and informative. In one fell swoop, someone called Phuzion has completely undone my work, and offered no argument or explanation. I require that explanation, please.--DStanB (talk) 11:33, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Do you not know how to read the history of an article? The edit summary says "Reverted to revision 448510853 by Phuzion: remove original research, commentary, etc..". I agree. Please read WP:VERIFY and WP:RS and WP:NOR. This article has no sources and any additional text really needs good sources. Wenham might be ok, but "An example that is more in keeping with Ivan Panin's processes" is not unless you have a source that says Wenham is "more in keeping with Ivan Panin".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dougweller (talk • contribs) 16:06, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

text: I understand the point you are making, but my own addition was not saying that Wenham agreed with Panin; only that an important starting point of Panin is factual information that is already accepted within scholarship. Why would well-established factual information require the backing of a source? Incidentally, I subsequently added a link to an external website, and that link has now also disappeared, ostensibly for failing the criteria of WP:VERIFY. I suggest you would have to look very hard to find a single one of those criteria that my suggestion might be shoe-horned into. Any chance of the link being re-instated?--DStanB (talk) 16:34, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

text: Ignore that last part. I've just received the automatic notification of your explanation.--DStanB (talk) 16:45, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

text: Enthusiastic? I'm not sure why you call me that. But the part of ELNO that is clearly relevant is 11, "Blogs, personal web pages and most fansites, except those written by a recognized authority. (This exception for blogs, etc., controlled by recognized authorities is meant to be very limited; as a minimum standard, recognized authorities always meet Wikipedia's notability criteria for people.)" I can't see a reason for making an exception for kingfisher1947. Dougweller (talk) 13:50, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

text: So that's your webpage? In which case you need to read WP:COI and you shouldn't add it to articles. The Wikipedia article Personal web page is completely irrelevant to our guidelines - they are not defined by our articles. Dougweller (talk) 22:07, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

message: Numbers in the Bible
An extra dimension of meaning is provided by the use of numerals in the Bible. Most numbers have special meanings attached.  For example, the number forty has the additional meaning of ′purification′.  Moses wandered in the desert for forty days -- not necessarily, but until the people were purified.  Noah experienced rain for forty days and forty nights -- not necessarily, but until the population was purified.  Seven has the additional meaning of completeness and perfection both physical and spiritual.  Thus, seven days in the week, seven days of Creation, seven churches visited by the Apostle Paul.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lynxx2 (talk • contribs) 10:18, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
