WikiChristian talk:Bible

Revision as of 20:53, 22 July 2008 by Graham grove (talk | contribs)
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: {{web_verse|john|1|1}} which will display Template:John 1:1 (WEB) edit; different versions and languages can be displayed too, for example {{greek_verse|john|1|1}} will display this: Template:John 1:1 (Greek) edit
  • 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 or 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. --Graham grove 13:53, 22 July 2008 (PDT)
