[edit] Thanks for the Welcome

I am well impressed to have been welcomed to wikipedia. I would be grateful for comment on my article 'numinosum'. As I wrote nearly all of it and it is my first.

Thanks so much,

No problem. Upon doing a little research, I found that there's already an article called Numinous, which is somewhat described in religious experience. I think that you might find some duplicate ideas, however I'm sure that several of your ideas could be incorporated into both articles. The two articles would best be merged (see the end of the article in the link). As for style, it looks pretty good, with two exceptions: 1) It's standard to put the name of the article on the top, and put it in bold (e.g., "A Numinosum is..."), and 2) Spacing issues (there are two spaces in betwen sections). But the latter is pretty irrelevant. I hope this helps. -Patstuart^{(talk)(contribs)} 02:14, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
