Article issues

This article is unbalanced, POV, and improperly uses sources. Please see the extensive discussion at Talk:1831_polygamy_revelation. --MrWhipple (talk) 21:41, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

It creates a lot of work, but hopefully we will result with a better article. Did I say it creates a lot of work? --Storm Rider (talk) 21:43, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
Thank goodness you've arrived...with no ill will towards the editor who created this page, as he/she is no doubt sincere, there is so much POV littered within this article, the plural marriage article, and the JSJr. & polygamy article that graves in the Independence, MO and Lamoni, IA areas (uh, and of course one particular important female's grave in Nauvoo, IL) are probably quaking. I shall of course endeavor to include the official church statements, etc. from 1844 (and earlier) in an effort to 'balance things out', and appreciate any & all help.

Can we pause all the haggling until after the merge?

I propose we stop all edits on this page until the merge is complete. I think we have good deal of consensus to where I feel comfortable executing the merge tonight. After the merge, we can pick up these discussions on the new page where the final text will rest.--Descartes1979 (talk) 20:12, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Major restructuring proposal

A major restructuring proposal for all polygamy articles related to Mormonism has been made at Talk:Joseph Smith, Jr. and polygamy#Series and Restructuring proposal. Please visit and give your two cents. --Descartes1979 (talk) 04:39, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
