{{box | text=This page is to discuss how the Bible could best be referenced in WikiChristian and any changes that we should undertake. Please see [[Bible Changes]] for the current system that is being implemented.}}
Some of the pros of the current system that I can see are:
* A verse can be easily displayed on any page simply by typing something like this: <nowiki>{{web_verse|john|1|1}}</nowiki> which will display {{web_verse|john|1|1}}; different versions and languages can be displayed too, for example <nowiki>{{greek_verse|john|1|1}}</nowiki> will display this: {{greek_verse|john|1|1}}
* By editing the verse directly (for example adding links to the verse) the edit will apply on whatever page the verse is displayed
* There can be a main page for each verse of chapter for which a commentary can be written (for example [[John 1:1]])
* There can be individual pages for different versions / translations of the verse or chapter which can contain footnotes about that version (for example [[John 1:1 (Greek)]] can have footnotes that show any textual variants for the Greek text - if there happen to be any)
Anyway, these are just some of the positives. I look forward to hearing what other people think and to hearing the cons. --[[User:Graham grove|Graham grove]] 13:53, 22 July 2008 (PDT)
