Sorry

Hello, MDexter66. I accidentally blocked you for about three minutes; sorry, I misread the recent changes page and mistook you for a vandal. Please accept my sincere apologies :-) -- P.B. Pilhet / Talk 11:27, 17 December 2006 (EST)

Welcome

Hi MDexter66. Thanks for contributing to WikiChristian. Please feel free to edit other articles. In particular, feel free to add information to the general information article on Roman Catholicism - Roman Catholicism (overview) or other overview articles regarding specific of Roman Catholicism; also feel free to create an opinion article on any specific topic or write a short sentence or two of opinion in the discussion section. --Graham grove 19:27, 17 December 2006 (EST)

Eucharist

I've redirected Eucharist to Lord's Supper. Unfortunately that meant losing some of your work, but given it was predominantly taken from the Catholic Encyclopedia, it should be easy to get back. If you would like to talk about the doctrine and theology behind the eucharist, you could write about that under the heading "Theology - Differences in opinion" in the Lord's Supper (overview) article. --Graham grove 07:43, 18 December 2006 (EST)

Thanks for your changes

Hi. Thanks for your corrections in the Roman Catholic sections. Its nice to read about you in your user page. I'm sure you have had problems in the past with people getting upset - evangelical Christians (of which I'm one), sadly, are good at getting upset or irate. I hope that you don't have that problem here. Although the users of this wiki are predominantly Protestant Christians, there has never been a stated doctrine / set of beliefs that a user has to adhere to, and so it is good to have a Catholic Christian on board, to correct any factual errors that may have slipped in accidently. To accommodate different views, each topic is set up like this:

• A main page on that topic - this only gives a brief 2 or 3 sentence summary (see for example Grace) followed by a list of links including links to
  • An overview or encyclopedia information page - this is an information page - explaining the topic, including explaining the differences in doctrine between denominations if applicable, but minimising any broad sort of opinionated statements - see Grace (overview)
  • Related topics
  • Opinion articles - including short statements of opinion (see Talk:Grace/discussion), as well as the potential for inidividual opinion articles (for example Justification by faith alone (G.G.))
  • Quotes page (see Grace (quotes))
  • Miscellaneous other related pages

I hope this helps explain the structure a little. If you were wanting to put detailed factual information about a topic, enter in the "(overview)" page. If you want to make a brief comment or opinion, put it in the "/discussion" page. If you want to write an extended article that is your opinion, create a new article with your initials in brackets after the title; and link to it from the main page for that topic.

Once again, thanks for your help in editting and correcting errors. --Graham grove 20:10, 20 December 2006 (EST)

'Thanks for tuning up the articles I had worked on. As you can see, I'm still not all that familiar with the format and coding on the Wiki-sites, and thanks much for the welcome. -MDexter66'
