List of Latter Day Saints

Noticed your edits on Controversial figures and alleged Criminals. Please see the talk page for a fairly intensive discussion on the topic - some of your changes may be reversed based on the editor's decisions there. Best wishes. WBardwin 05:10, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

-Good to hear from you. I haven't seen your name for awhile. Didn't mean to intrude, but last I looked, the trend was for removing names from CF&C category and placing them on the alternate page. I'll look over the talk page again.

-I'm doing some work on the Mormon pioneer article that might help me begin on our discussed effort on the Mormon Battalion. Your eye is welcome on those edits. Best wishes. WBardwin 05:22, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your improvements to the John Van Cott page. If you have more info about him, please share. He is an ancestor of mine. Isaac Crumm 10:52, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your comments. I will see what I can do about the photo gallery on the John Van Cott page. Formatting is not my forte, but I will try to fiddle with it. I am curious as to which child your wife is descended from. Feel free to visit my family history webpage at: mytribe dot dilaandarnie dot com; I am descended from Frank Victor Van Cott, his second child with his wife Laura Lund.

Mormon martyr

I don't think that the category mormon martyr is even neutral, but if you think he is a martyr lets try Christian martyr's as the category seems to be part of the mormons aren't christian's campaign. I can think of differences between JS and PPP, for example: 1) the motivation of the killer: JS - hatred for JS because of his religious beliefs vs PPP - hatred for PPP because he stole the killer's wife; 2) killers: JS killed by a mob(an outspoken subset of the community) vs PPP killed by a man and his friends. While I can see the argument that PPP was killed for his beliefs in plural marriage, that does not, IMHO, come close to the same as JS. --Trödel 01:40, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Sounds good - I'll think about the martyr vs domestic dispute some more too :) --Trödel 01:50, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

List of United States Presidents by military rank

Thanks for starting to improve things. I'm sure there are all kinds of those kinds of errors sprinkled through the article. Hopefully now they are easier to find and fix. — MrDolomite | Talk 13:38, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Akbar and Polygamy

No where in the article does it say that he was practicing polygamy by choice. Given that and the fact he comes from a long line of rulers who kept harums and married the number of woman their religion prescribed for them, makes me ask a question: why single him out? Putting the category of polygamy on his page, when its clearly a non-issue for an article about a Mughal emperor, I believe, is a bias. I meant no personal attack, everyone has biases, I do believe this is a bias. --hydkat 16:30, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
