NPOV

Please read WP:RNPOV. Wikipedia is not an annex of your church, it is a secular encyclopedia. tgeorgescu (talk) 18:57, 5 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

this discussion is about historical and scholarly facts Ai777 (talk) 19:21, 5 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
How was that saying? What's learned at seminary stays at seminary. Very much not true for Wikipedia. tgeorgescu (talk) 19:34, 5 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
I do apologize if my comments were taken as otherwise, other than historical and factual. Ai777 (talk) 19:36, 5 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

I don’t understand the point of most of your biblical quotes at Talk:Jesus

edit

They do look a bit like preaching. Doug Weller talk 20:21, 5 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Ai777, on the one hand, let me also welcome you to Wikipedia. On the other, let me be blunt: please knock off the irrelevant scripture-quoting at Talk:Jesus. You are more than welcome to quote Jesus or anybody else at the Talk page when it pertains directly to improving the Jesus article; otherwise, it is off-topic for that page, which is *strictly* about improving the article. At a minimum, your comments and possibly the entire conversation you initiated could be at risk of being erased or collapsed because article Talk pages are not to be used as a forum for giving your personal views or thoughts about Jesus. Sorry if this seems harsh, but it's better to nip this behavior in the bud, before you make a habit of it, and it comes back to bite you.
Partial translation of that last sentence: did you notice Doug, who commented just before me? Doug is an Administrator at Wikipedia, meaning he has the capacity to suspend your editing privileges if you fail to comply with Wikipedia policies and guidelines, and he noticed your edit, and gave a very gentle indication to steer you back into compliance. Basically, you want to avoid having admins sniffing around on your Talk page as much as possible; it's the wrong kind of attention, and you don't want it. (On the other hand, Doug is a really cool admin, and if you're going to end up dealing with an admin, you're lucky it was him.) Don't worry, as a brand new user you are given extra latitude to make mistakes—that's how we all learn. However, now Doug has basically told you to stop the preaching, and so am I. So, no more irrelevancies at the Talk page please; keep focused on specific ways to improve the article, and avoid everything else. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me below, or you can ask questions about editing Wikipedia at the WP:Tea house or Wikipedia:Help desk. Once again, welcome!

Short summary "none"

edit

Dear colleague, you might want to reconsider changing the "none" summaries to some new text. The original "none" designation makes sense: the title of the article is self-evident. Especially it makes sense for the lists, where the new (AI-generated?) description repeats the title in a more complicated (and thus confusing) way. Викидим (talk) 23:42, 25 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

New message to Ai777

Given the explicit discussion on the talk page, your attempt to keep things going and maybe sneak past what you want against overwhelming consensus was completely egregious. Remsense ‥  15:12, 26 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm MrOllie. I noticed that you have been adding short descriptions to articles. However, the short descriptions you added are too long to be effective. The guideline is that short descriptions should ideally be under 40 characters long, and no longer than needed. For more information, see the short description guidelines. If you have any questions, please let me know. Thank you. MrOllie (talk) 17:38, 26 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
