Your edit to Christian martyrs

On the page List of Christian martyrs, you removed Joseph Smith, with the note that he was a "false teacher" of a cult, because he added to the Bible.[1] The Mormon church identifies as Christian. That page is a list of Christian martyrs. There are hundreds of thousands of Christian denominations across the world. Many of the denominations like to denounce each other as "not being 'true' Christians", for reasons such as:

1) others believe Jesus is the son of god, but not god himself (blasphemy against the trinity);
2) others believe Jesus is god himself, and that's blasphemy (believing in the trinity, which is associating people with god);
3) others believe Jesus is the physical incarnation of god, but god's not a trinity (believing in a singular physical manifestation);
4) others believe that 'ye are all gods, ye are all offspring of the most high' from psalms is a literal doctrine;
etc, etc... tons of reasons christians call each other "untrue" christians

The point is, that's all irrelevant. Wikipedia doesn't decide who's a "true" "true" Christian, who's a "false" "true" Christian, and who's a "false" Christian. Mormons identify as Christian. Joseph Smith was allegedly a Christian. He's listed as a Christian martyr. Additionally, many of the other Christians on that list had differing doctrinal beliefs - so they might also be listed as "untrue Christians", according to some denominations.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Boogaloo - 2nd American Civil War (December 6)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by KylieTastic was:

Neologisms are not considered suitable for Wikipedia unless they receive substantial use and press coverage; this requires strong evidence in independent, reliable, published sources. Links to sites specifically intended to promote the neologism itself do not establish its notability.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Boogaloo - 2nd American Civil War and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Boogaloo - 2nd American Civil War, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
