[edit] Jonas Wendell

  • Ah, yes, I believe you're right about the copyright. I just checked into it and it looks like USA works early than 1923 have fallen into the public domain. I forgot about that. In any case, since the other article already exists, just do your editing over at Jonas Wendell. You can add a {{db|Request by article author. Content merged to [[Jonas Wendell]]}} tag to the beginning of the incorrectly titled article and an admin will delete it for you.

[edit] Bible Student movement

Do you have any comments on the Bible Student movement page ?

I'd particularly be interested in the history of the Bible Students in Europe - is it true that in Germany (during WW2), they had no contact with the rest of the JW movement, but stayed affiliated with it, but then broke up when after the war they got wind of the changes in doctrine ?

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Ctrussell.jpg

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Ctrussell.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Shyam (T/C) 20:27, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your photo "gift"

The photo which you claim is the only photo of WIllian miller, and hence you are justified in replacing a high quality picture with a low quality one, is not acceptable to keep high wikipedia standards for photo quality. Thankyou for doing the research, but please do not replace your low quality photo again. Ansell Review my progress! 07:10, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Also of concern is the fact that the fair use tag which you have used on the photo is blatantly wrong. Fix it up before posting the image on any pages. MyNameIsNotBob 09:32, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Hi. Now I understand more about the picture. Unfortunately under the situation you described it is not verifiable, and therefore shouldn't be used here. If the photograph was printed or verified by some reputable source, then it would work. You said you gave it to the SDA church... did they do anything with it? Did they write any papers or statements on it? If what you say is true and verifiable, I think it would be very interesting to document it on the page and add the photo.

[edit] Apology

I' ve made a big mistake, and accused you for replacing the foto of mr. Russell with the foto of Adolf Hitler. I called you moron. Well, I'm deeply sorry for that.

It was user 152.163.100.69 who made the change. I thought it was you.

I replaced the right foto. Please accept my apologies.

Thank you for apologizing, but as to how you could have thought it was me (who wrote the article) could have put it up is beyond me. Pastorrussell 22:08, 7 July 2006 (UTC)


I would appreciate your contribution to the subject I have raised in the discussion on Adventism, and on the connection between Adventism & Russell.--Vassilis78 07:11, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] William Miller

Hi. I'm doing a PhD on William Miller and currently lecture in Church History. I was very excited to see your discovery of a photograph of William Miller. I would be interested in discussing it further with you--I'm particularly interested in obtaining a higher resolution image. You can contact me on crocombej AT hbc DOT ac DOT za Thanks JCrocombe 07:03, 14 August 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Russell's mariage

Dear PastorRussell, I read in your article about Russell's mariage that the couple had promised celibacy. How can this information be documented? Is it something published by the WT or was it mentioned during the trial of the divorce? I would appreciate your help on this.--Vassilis78 11:01, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
