Changes

I was just thinking about something. If we call this All of Easton's Bible Dictionary...that's okay. But as we review has been uploaded, and edit and add to it (you know, do those things that make a wiki a wiki) it will eventually can be quite different from the original EBD. Maybe we should change the name to "WikiChristianaccessed through [[Easton's Bible Dictionary" and just say that it is BASED on the EBDIndex]]. That way a year or two down the road, when It would be excellent if we've edited things with it...we are still acurrate in the name. What does everyone think? Also, by linking to the external EBD we still give people a chance to see the original text of the EBDcould eventually wikify this. --[[User:CparkGraham grove|CparkGraham grove]] 0822:3910, 11 Mar 2005 22 September 2006 (PSTPDT)

----Hi Cpark. I guess this message is mainly concerned for me, I think it makes perfect sense Aquatiki and Kathleen, plus anyone else interested in the Easton's Bible Dictionary. All public domain texts that exist in WikiChristian or that are to change be copied into WikiChristian are being moved into the new text namespace. This includes Easton Bible Dictionary entries. This raises the name since question of what the idea naming convention should be for these pages. As you know, there was no original standard with some being named "Free Bible Dictionary:Name of Entry", others being named "Bible Dictionary:Name of Entry" and still others being named "Easton's Bible Dictionary: Name of Entry" but these were standardized to to develop a free wiki bible dictionary"Name of entry (EBD)". Since we do not want But now this needs to reinvent the wheel, we would like be changed to use what ever is already be in line with the public domaintext namespace. So, the options that I can think of include "Text:EBD is one :Name of the Entry" or "Text:Easton's Bible Dictionaries in the PD but Dictionary:Name of Entry". Are there are others alsoany other options that people can think of. We will change the name to WikiChristianI think my personal favourite is "Text:Easton's [[Free Bible Dictionary]] or in short FBD. Thanks for :Name of Entry" but I'm happy with either of the excellent pointabove options. We need to What do others think ahead while naming our projects, like in this situation, so that, when the wiki evolves, it does not have to change the name. ? --[[User:PrabGraham grove|PrabGraham grove]] 614:45 PM35, 11 Mar 2005 3 October 2008 (ESTPDT) Prab: In the interest of typing three letters versus 25 characters, I think this makes sensevote EBD. I looked through the recent changes and I was like We weren't typing ''Jeremiah (Easton's Bible Dictionary)'' but ''Jeremiah (EBD)''..."wow." Thanks What other criteria can you think of for saving me the trouble of moving most of the stuff! One last question....do we want the FBD pages to link to the main article judging? --[[User:Aquatiki|Aquatiki]] 13:02, 4 October 2008 (ie, "Abraham"PDT) or do we want them to link to the FBD page (ie "Free_Bible_Dictionary::Abraham") I know that in some cases we have True. EBD is a great number of articles written about someone (take Peter for instancelot simpler. The "Peter" article links to GrahamI can's article on the papacy, a short biography t think of Peter, and eventually any reason it will also link to the FBD article on Petershouldn't be simply "EBD". So, in my thinking Shall we'll want the FBD index pages to just link directly to the FBD article and save users an extra click...but what does everyone else thinkgo with that then? --[[User:CparkGraham grove|CparkGraham grove]] 0713:0038, 12 Mar 2005 4 October 2008 (PSTPDT)
