Talk:Messianic Judaism/Archive 12

message: Even though some of them weren't even that old ... apparently everything except the Christian Torah-submission argument was archived to Archive 11 on Monday, and now the argument itself has been moved to that other page. So that's why discussion here seems blank. Took me a while to figure that out. Rpresser 13:46, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

message: I wanted to congratulate the editing team for Messianic Judaism for keeping this article sound, in check, NPOV, sourced, and compromisingly intact. In short, I wanted to thank everyone for keeping this article safe from the round of editing wars that plagued the previous version of this article before I redrafted it last year. I know some issues have been hard to deal with, but this is just a thank you to all who in fact do contribute: Avi, ChristTrekker, Pinchas, Drbatton, Jayjg, IZAK (yes you too IZAK), P.D. and many many others. It's not often that we all work together well, but it is agreed that without you Messianic Judaism would not be getting the coverage it does deserve, no matter what views we may hold of it, if it wasn't for your patient endurance in the constant change that is wikipedia and this article. I am still unable to devote as much time editing myself - now that my firstborn son is due in a few weeks, and I'm moving in three. Long speech short, thank you for your hard work and participation. Your input has all been valued, and is very appreciated. Good job so far! inigmatus 17:26, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Why has that article been folded into this one?  That section alone is huge, and deserving of its own article.  I recall spending a goodly amount of time writing a decent section summary for it.  I don't see any discussion of this.  (Did I miss something?) What's going on? ⇔ ChristTrekker 17:28, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  [[Messianic Jewish theology]] 

message: I edited the following - "In recent years these organizations have noticeably shifted their focus from opposition of Christianity to opposition of Messianic Judaism" to "In recent years these organizations have noticeably shifted their focus from opposition of Christian missionizing to opposition of Messianic Judaism", but, even then, it is wrong. Even the most cursory glances at the websites of the 2 groups named show that their primary opposition is still missionizing. So I am going to make that change as wellFlaviaR 19:46, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Outreach Judaism/Jews For Judaism 

message: The sections on Torah and scriptural commentary are problamtic. The first states religious views as objective reality and doesn't eem to add anything to the article, but does seem, from the rest of the article, to represent the POV of a mnority of the movement.
I'd like to see more sourcing in the Scriptural Commentary section, and also the changing of Y'shua to Jesus, which is the name of the founder of Christianity in English language academic publications. Basejumper2 06:26, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

message: :Image:Bethelnyc.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

message: Anyone know a good reason for these two edits:  ? Both remove links to messianic sites and were anon edits from a shared IP address. --Peter cohen 14:28, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

message: FYI,
Ref 47. is broken but I did not touch it. Is someone coming back to it? It looks like something was started but currently is unfinished. Knight1000 (talk) 07:21, 23 November 2007 (UTC
