JRN and JCG, You know who this is. Feel free to let me know what you think or give me comments. I have switched the reference of the Quarum of Twelve to one that references the Christian view of the Twelve. CSG

[edit] Help
If you need any help with anything (like policy or what not) just let me or josue know. You can leave us a message on our talk page. If you leave any messages on talk pages put four ~'s at the end and it will leave your user name. I think the page is really starting to shape up well. JRN 21:56, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Name
If you could get those databases or whatever you found online to cite the official name of The Church of Jesus Christ, that would be great. I think it will help tremendously in getting the official name on the page. This could be a long process though. JRN 15:46, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
Here is the problem. Those sites are ones that we need permission to access. This is an issue we need to bring joe ross in on. If it gets too bad, that is why we have a church lawyer. CSG 12:38, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] What's your problem?
I haven't used the term except when I needed something to disambiguate among the multiple churches called "The Church of Jesus Christ". Also, I have said that I will use the term "(whimp)" to further disambiguate. Is that not satisfactory? McKay 15:44, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
- Under WP:NCON#Example there's a quaint little fictional story about Maputa and Cabindans. It is a matter of fact that the Cabindan's are called Cabindans. The Maputans don't like that they call themselves Cabindans, but nonetheless, it is a matter of fact that they are the Cabindans. Sure, there's a group of people that doesn't like it, but that fact remains. If we titled an article about the Cabindan's Cabindan, there will be some people upset, but wikipedia policy is much more concerned with what they are actually called.
- I'm really not afraid of the Wikipedia administration getting involved, because wikipedia policy is on my side. I'm complying for the moment, but note that it is not because I think wikipedia policy dictates I do so. I'm doing so to please y'all, and beacuse I now have another way of disambiguating.

- My solution involves adding " (whimp)" which I have been using. I'm hoping that that doesn't cause a problem, because you, as a group, have been using it yourself. McKay 18:58, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
- I understand your request, but I am unable to follow it. While I understand that you don't think any other churches are called "The Church of Jesus Christ" you must see that I believe that there are other churches called "The Church of Jesus Christ". Under some circumstances usage of the term "The Church of Jesus Christ" is completely clear. At other times, I personally feel that there must be some sort of disambiguation. What can I do to specify which church it is when the usage of "The Church of Jesus Christ" is unclear. I think that there shouldn't be any problem by specifying the headquarters of said church, which is why I use the designation "with headquarters in monogahela pennsylvania" shortened to "whimp". If you cannot provide something to designate it, I will use that one, it is not offensive. Otherwise, I will continue to use that designation. Feel free to report me to the administration if you feel that that's what's right. I feel like I'm bending over backwards to meet your silly little whims. I'm sick and tired of your continual threats to report me to the administration. These threats are counterproductive. Either do it, or be quiet about the issue. I'm not going to change my actions unless you can provide a different option. There needs to be a way for me on the talk pages, to disambiguate your church from other churches which I believe share the name of your church. McKay 19:38, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
- I fail to see how this is a legal issue. Is it illegal for me to call Bill Gates "Bill Gates" even though he is legally William Henry Gates III? No, is it illegal for me to refer to MyFamily.com as MyFamily.com even though legally they're The Generations Network? No there isn't any legal problems. I'm going to continue to use the term " (whimp)" as I have been the past few days. If you're going to report me to wikipedia administration DO IT ALREADY. STOP THE LEGAL THREATS! THIS IS YOUR LAST WARNING. It is not a legal issue. Either file a lawsuit or report me. Don't bring it up again or you will be reported for continual threats. McKay 04:21, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Logging in on a different computer
someone has been claiming to be you logged in on another computer I believe it's probably you, but you should probably log in on both computers to better show that it really is you. If you have any questions in about logging in, feel free to ask. McKay 19:55, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
