Disambiguation link notification
[edit]Hi. When you recently edited Twenty Five Years of an Artist, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Nina Ricci and L'Air du Temps (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page A Doll's House do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Old Moonraker (talk) 06:09, 27 December 2011 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

[edit] Hello, I'm Doug Weller. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Degrees of Glory, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Doug Weller talk 10:54, 26 August 2019 (UTC)

[edit]I want to thank you for trying to get things right on pages concerning Community of Christ. As copy editor for the John Whitmer Historical Association Journal, I hope I know something about how Community of Christ is referred to. Below is a quote and citation concerning my edits.
“I learned that, actually, the church is not referred to as the Community of Christ; it’s referred to as Community of Christ.”- John Dehlin
Dehlin, John. “590: Stephen M. Veazey- Prophet-President of Community of Christ, Pt. 1.” Mormon Stories, 2015, www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxwofUNlsTg.
Please follow our style guidelines, Community of Christ guidelines have nothing to do with us, also note about MOS:CAPS
[edit]We have our own style guidelines that we expect everyone to follow. I've also edited [[Template:Community of Christ]] to meet MOS:CAPS, removed an inappropriate comment and some language violating WP:NPOV (Inspired texts). Doug Weller talk 11:13, 26 August 2019 (UTC)
@Hwangfan: I am unclear where the CoC style guidelines can be found that you reference to support your edits. Can you provide a link? Just because we use a definite article before the name of the church does not mean that the name of the church includes "The" as the name (contrast this with "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" which does include the definite article in its name). Additionally, a number of documents that can be found on the CoC website do include such phrasing as "the Community of Christ", for example: Bylaws, 2004 Priesthood Manual, 2017 Policy statement on intoxicants, and webpage on its First Presidency. Given these occurrences and others, my guess is you are interpreting the style guideline differently from how the CoC themselves interpret it, which gives even less support for removing "the". --FyzixFighter (talk) 00:04, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
@FyzikFighter: I appreciate your concerns about my edit. As Copy Editor of the John Whitmer Historical Association Journal, I'm aware of changes, since the early 2000s, of style concerning Community of Christ. I have reverted the edits and I include the following citation as proof of our style guidelines.
Dehlin, John. “590: Stephen M. Veazey- Prophet-President of Community of Christ, Pt. 1.” Mormon Stories, 2015, www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxwofUNlsTg.
- @Hwangfan: I'm sorry, but that is not a reliable source nor is it proof of the CoC's style guidelines. I was hoping you would provide something from the CoC website stating their preferred style guidelines. The links I provided are from their own website and show recent (in some cases two years old) occurrences where they use the phrase "the Community of Christ". Beyond that, wikipedia is not obligated to use any organization's style guideline - take for example WP continued use of "LDS Church" despite the style guideline of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. WP follows, in this case, MOS:LDS which provides no injuction against "the" in these cases. Not including "the" in some sentences comes off as just bad grammar, as has been noted by myself and other editors. We can certainly go down the road of dispute resolution, but imo, per WP:STATUSQUO and MOS:LDS the "the"s should remain. --FyzixFighter (talk) 15:54, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
@FyzikFighter: Understood. New citation below from Mormon History Association style guide; CofC's website under revision; please refer to pg. 5
Journal of Mormon History. “Journal of Mormon History Style Guide.” Https://Mormonhistoryassociation.org/Wp-Content/Uploads/2015/02/JMH-Style-Guide.pdf, 2015, mormonhistoryassociation.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/JMH-Style-Guide.pdf.
