[edit]

Need to add information about the School of Prophets in Brigham Young's era, and its (albeit short) continuation in President John Taylor's day. As well as the 'ceremonies' and incidents associated with the School. --Tobey 15:17, 10 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

[edit]

I'm not sure that the "School of the Prophets" church listed here is sufficiently notable to warrant a Wikipedia article. The only reference here is to its own website, and it seems to be just a very small organization. Whoever introduced this material ought to provide backup in support of notability, if it exists.

The LDS School of the Prophets was clearly notable and has been discussed in countless historical books and journals, I'm not questioning that part of the article. COGDEN 18:26, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I followed the link in the footnote, to http://www.schooloftheprophets.org.au/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=46&Itemid=53 and it turns out that the whole first section of this article is copied (basically) verbatim from that site. That site also includes a copyright notice, © 2009, so it is a technical violation for the content to be reproduced here. Abinidi (talk) 00:06, 18 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Introduction with other uses of the phrasse

[edit]

The term "school of the prophets" was used to describe Samuel's school in Ramah in the Hebrew Bible, and to describe Harvard in the seventeenth century and Yale in the eighteenth. I've added a short introduction with references to this usage. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Harrycroswell (talkcontribs) 12:21, 22 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
