Category talk:Mormonism

message: I note you have removed the parent category :Category:New religious movements from this page because it does not fit in with the post-WWII timeframe, as given in the New religious movement article. This category is actually a little broader than the article suggests, reaching back into the nineteenth century. It is possible we will add an explicit time demarcation to the title to make this more clear. This category is in fact still in flux, and has not yet "settled down." We may want to revisit Mormonism's inclusion in the category once its contours have become more definite. --Gary D 00:36, 19 Jun 2004 (UTC)

message: This template is used on the page; however, Mormons are not included in it, nor does the Christian denomination category include Mormons.  I don't particularly care in what way this is fixed, being neither Christian nor Mormon myself, but this is not consistent. Ken Arromdee 20:49, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

text: Note question raised by previous editor on talk page. The comment provides context. And perhaps you could attempt to comment in English? This is, you'll note, the en.WP. And I suspect I translate poorly. Thanks! Notez la question soulevée par l'editor précédent à la page d'entretien. Le commentaire fournit le contexte. Et peut-être vous pourriez essayer de commenter en anglais? C'est, vous notera, l'en.WP. Et je suspecte que je traduise mal. Merci! --The Editrix 13:20, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

Swo yi, wo syang women ying gai shwo gwoyu. Hau bu hau? Désolé. These are English-language pages. Comments must be in English. If your English is inadequate to the task, let's all speak Mandarin, using Yale Romanisation. Ok? Dans l'échange, je promets de ne parle pas  sur les pages français. In exchange, I promise not to comment on the French-language pages. --The Editrix 21:44, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Christian denomination tree template 

message: While I think this is definitely a useful category, and has some advantages the way it is now, I think there ought to be a discussion on the pros and cons of making a subcategory for "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints", and having all related topics specific to that church under that subcategory; or we can go further and make separate subcategories for each denomination, and then a speparate one for something like "pre-1844 Mormonism" (not that this would be to my preferences, but rather to appease everyone here). I think the current format is bit too cumbersome and ties divergent topics together too closely.

thread_title: Discuss Subdiving the Category

message: Mormonism is described as "a term used to describe the religious, ideological, and cultural elements of certain branches of the Latter Day Saint movement, specifically, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) and Mormon fundamentalism."
The Mormonism category does not directly include the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints nor the Mormon fundamentalism subcategories. The only way for a user to navigate to the two specific main mormonism topics is through the Latter Day Saint denominationis subcategory.
The wikipedia categories is definately not a tree structure although parallell tree structures may be convenient, see Categories do not form a tree. Although articles are somwhat dependent of the categories, the structure of the categories may be changed.
When changing the structure, classification may be used to help users understand and browse through the categories, see Wikipedia:Classification
