| I guess I've see enough of where your priorities as an editor truly lie to regard any further discussion through this medium as pretty much pointless.

| == Barnabas == | |||
| Hello there. Concerning your message, I had explained why I removed some content under the Barnabas page right there in the edit summary: "→Other sources: Removed unrelated information. Gospel of Barnabas is discussed under alleged writings." It's up there on the revision history, check it out. --] (]) 15:10, 15 September 2014 (UTC) | |||
| :1) It is under the wrong header 2) Its very same content is already explained under "alleged writings" (last paragraph), and with more reputable sources 3) It's not even formatted properly --] (]) 15:39, 15 September 2014 (UTC) | |||
| ::The only reason the news in the given source is newsworthy is because the Gospel found is reported to be in Syriac. The section I removed doesn't mention that. Considering there have been other Gospels of Barnabas (in other languages) found in Turkey no less than 500 years ago, the information given therefore becomes moot, out of place, and useless. I didn't remove anything because of the "information itself", please stop making baseless accusations. Thank you.--] (]) 23:10, 15 September 2014 (UTC) | |||
| :::I'm sorry but I believe I already the explained the reasons why this is not a matter of subjectivity. At its current form, it needs organizing and at least some rewriting. https://en.wikipedia.org/Gospel_of_Barnabas#Possible_Syriac_manuscripts is a much better written section about the same matter with more diverse sources and new information, and it can be used to edit after. Anyway, let us stop arguing. Cheers. --] (]) 09:45, 16 September 2014 (UTC) | |||
| JudeccaXIII, I have reverted edits of yours on the ] page; specifically as relating to the persistent news stories speculating that a prolematic manuscript of Cypriot provenance formerly being held by the Turkish police and now lodged with the Ethnography Museum in Ankara, might constitute a lost Syriac/Aramaic manuscript of the Gospel of Barnabas. You will find that the question of how these stories might be reflected in the Misplaced Pages article, has been batted back and forth on that discussion page quite a bit (and I think there is more now archived). By all means join that discussion and propose your edits there - but it would probably be better to take account of the the current stage of debate before making substantial changes to the article itself. The main point is that there is absolutely no authoritative evidence from anyone who has been able to examine the Ankara manuscript itself, that it corresponds in any way to the text (known in Spanish and Italian versions) that is commonly denoted as 'The Gospel of Barnabas". ] (]) 15:17, 18 September 2014 (UTC) | |||
| :Hello, I'm very aware of your revert. I changed Syriac to Aramaic because the source reads so, and I wasn't sure of the non-English source. A user was complaining about some information on the article Barnabas. You can see the article's history to see more what I did because of the other user. I'll discuss the revert later as it is not a big deal for me -- Cheers -- JudeccaXIII (talk) 01:15, 19 September 2014 (UTC) | |||
| :: Thanks for the helpful comments JudeccaXIII. The problem here is that almost all information circulating on the Ankara manuscript is simply reporting other people's speculations; which in turn are largely wishful thinking. If the note by Assad Sauma is correct in identifying the Ankara manuscript with the extract pages on which he had been requested to report, then the writing is Syriac (written left to right) and the texts a mixture of Syriac and 'neo-Aramaic'. There are some photographs circulating of the manuscript cover, on which the writing is modern Syriac. What this means is that - in the absence of an authoritative or scholarly description, we need to be highly selective in what we take from the news-media sources. For instance, the claim '1,500 years old' is without any basis at all, as too is any correspondence between this text and the known Italian and Spanish texts. Equally, however, we need to be wary of those who are dismissing the manuscript as a forgery. It almost certainly is a modern forgery, but that does not at all preclude its transmitting a genuin medieval text; which could indeed be an otherwise unknown apocryphal gospel. ] (]) 09:19, 19 September 2014 (UTC) | |||

| == Book of Elchasai == | |||
| Hello TomHennell, I just created my first article ever on Misplaced Pages: Book of Elchasai, and I would like for you to expand this article as much as possible. I used this site as a reference: http://www.earlychristianwritings.com/elchasai.html, but within the site contains many references for sourcing by scholars and church fathers. Perhaps this may give you some interest as this article is around your editing field -- Thnx & Cheers -- JudeccaXIII (talk) 20:00, 29 September 2014 (UTC) | |||
| : Well done for creating the article; but I'm afraid I can offer little in the way of help. In general the existing ] article (to which your article links) provides pretty much all that is known. In particular, it is not at all certain that the author of the book is named Elchasai, many scholars think that is the protagonists name; and that the author is Alcibiades. But as I say, this is a bit far from my field. ] (]) 23:04, 29 September 2014 (UTC) | |||
| :: If you are looking for an up-to-date scholarly treatment of the book of Elchasai (it is a continual problem in Misplaced Pages articles, that material tends to be lifted form the XIth edition of the Britannica, and from the Catholic Enclyclopedia, simply because these are readily avaiable on line), then you may find useful matter in Patricia Crone's book on Nativist Prophets in pre-Islamic Iran. I should warn you that Crone's views are by no means the scholarly consensus; and her underlying thesis that some Islamic teachings originate with Judeo-christian sects such as the Elcesaites is one that scandalises many Muslims. But still you may find it useful in developing your article. ] (]) 16:14, 1 October 2014 (UTC) | |||

Nice ONe
Way to be quick to accuse me of edit warring, when you reverted 3 times and I did only twice. And creating a new user account, is not sock puppetry. That's called taking the advice of wikipedia and creating an account — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.48.187.167 (talk) 22:49, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
October 2014
Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Book of Daniel, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Also, it would help if you edit the whole article at once, and use preview, rather than clogging the history and watchlists with many small edits. Elizium23 (talk) 01:52, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
Archiving
I see it hasn't done it yet. You could maybe change the time to 10 days old and wait. That would make pre-October archive, I think. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 03:28, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

- I've asked someone at IRC to help. Sorry I've been useless. I really do not understand automatic archiving. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 22:22, 11 October 2014 (UTC)
- Aha. It appears that the main bot is not working "...Bots I, II, and III do work but MiszaBot itself was malfunctioning and has been blocked for over a year..." Someone will come and help soon. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 22:26, 11 October 2014 (UTC)
- I have set up a scheme that should lead to Lowercase sigmabot III archiving the talk page. The archival parameters are described here in some detail; those I used will archive everything older than 10 days, excluding the newest four sections on the talk page.

St Paul's Conversion narrative discrepancy
I made a recent edit to your entry on St Paul. You called it NO constructive. In the section about St Paul's conversion you mention "biblical scholar" Reza Aslan as being skeptical of St Paul's conversion story. He calls it propaganda. In order to be just and fair, it must be pointed out that Mr Aslan is a Muslim and that he vehemently denies the divinity of Christ. So Mr Aslan is not an objective biblical scholar but rather a very bias one. The credibility of this section of the article on St Paul is heavily compromised by someone who clearly has an agenda. I don't believe it is fair. In matters of Sacred Scripture, the highest authority on these matters is the Pontifical Biblical Institute in Jerusalem and in Rome. Jewish, Protestant, Catholic, and Islamic scholars worked together to translate the new testament.
Template:Non-canonical books referenced in the Bible
I had added the template to all the pages that it mentioned; but if you're going to add new pages, you should add the template to those pages immediately. StAnselm (talk) 19:19, 11 October 2014 (UTC)
- The template wasn't really finished when made. It still isn't, but i'm grateful for your help for placing the templates in the articles. -- JudeccaXIII (talk) 19:49, 11 October 2014 (UTC)
