== A problem with the baptist article ==


] '''CheckUser changes'''
The ] article fails to be a neutral page in that it calls baptists a "Protestant" church. In doing so wikipedia is giving sole credence to the common yet mistaken belief that baptists came out of the catholic church. Even if they don't agree with the view that baptists precede Catholics, they should at least remove the word Protestant and thusly leave the article totally neutral. Most of the rest of the article does well with demonstrating wikipedia's stand on remaining a neutral site, but the beginning of the article is disapointing at best. ] (]) 00:35, 14 January 2010 (UTC)

] '''Arbitration'''
I appologise if I came across ..... un-neutral, my use of the word "heretical" could be considered POV and therefor, biased. As for the other two words you pointed out, I suppose I could have chosen more gentle words. Instead of "slaughtered" I should have said "publically executed in large groups", and instead of "murderers" I should have said "public executioners" or "punishers of those that disagreed with them". However, while harsh, they were not POVs, but historical fact, some accounts of which you can find in Foxe's Book Of Martyrs. I fail to understand, however, why everything I write can be so swiftly removed on the grounds of being "biased" or failing to be "neutral" yet when I point out something that fits both cases, I am told to discuss it in a chat line. And one other little observation, for being supposedly neutral, why is it that one can edit the Baptist and Catholic pages, yet the Muslim page is locked and un-touchable? The stands that wikipedia claims don't always seem to be neutral.

Thank you

For this . Since they're hopping from one sock to the next, those articles really need to be locked. Cheers, 2601:19E:4180:6D50:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 05:21, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

Perhaps, but I suspect he will just move to another LOTR article and we will end up chasing him all over the place. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 05:23, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in a research

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team
