I did delete your "United Effort Plan" article, because articles containing only links to other websites are not allowed in Wikipedia. Try recreating the article with information about the website. Academic Challenger 08:04, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Good job on the FLDS update
Good job on the FLDS update, adding the picture of the temple, etc (I was eventually going to do that) -- I am not LDS (far from it) but I understand how folks like that (FLDS) ruin LDS's reputation -- keep up the good work...
I'll take a look. Tom Haws 17:35, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Golden Plates
I may have been a bit abrupt in my reply to your questioning of the neutrality of the Golden Plates page. The page has been pretty stable for some weeks now, but if the information given there needs more citation, we can work on that. I've archived previous talk page posts so that we'll have an uncluttered field if we need it. All the best, --John Foxe 19:39, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] grammar was correct
I'm not trying to embarrass you I'm just pointing out the "correction" you made on the lost 116 pages was incorrect. The area between the commas was a parenthetical interjection, so the "and" is unnecessary. It should read as a coherent sentence without the interjection. So therefore the sentence should read: "Before returning home after two weeks, Lucy searched the Smith house and grounds for the plates, but because Smith did not need their physical presence to create the transcription, they were reportedly hidden in a nearby woods, she was unable to locate them."
With the interjection removed it should still be coherent: "Before returning home after two weeks, Lucy searched the Smith house and grounds for the plates, but because Smith did not need their physical presence to create the transcription and she was unable to locate them." As you can see, it doesn't make sense with the "and" there when the interjection is removed. I will quietly revert the mistake and also feel free to remove this from your page if you wish.

- Thanks. Of course, you're right. Nevertheless, the original sentence (especially seen in edit mode) was confusing.--John Foxe 10:05, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
