[edit] Comment on use of formal title

Note: Sam Webster does not use the title "Reverend", as he has never been ordained into a church body that uses that title. Formally, he is "Mr. Sam Webster, M.Div." - JMax555 00:57, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Fixed. --999 02:19, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Citations Not Adequate

User:Khabs has changed four {{fact}} tags into sources but the "source" is just Webster's normal bio blurb on a site. It was, in all probability, written by Sam Webster himself. This really is inadequate by WP:RS standards. I don't think they stand up. --Pigman^talk 07:03, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Well, he was a presenter at their event. They would have vetted it. Counts as independently verified and published by a third party. Khabs 07:35, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Eh, says who? Surely not WP:NOTE and WP:VERIFY. - WeniWidiWiki 07:38, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

OK, most everything has been cited with book references. There are probably more. Most of the writings were published in Mezlim, Gnosis or PanGaea, but I don't have copies so can only note this for some of them. Khabs 17:22, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
