United Church of Christ

What is your problem?— Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 22:18, 21 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Vchimpanzee I have no problem with anyone editing anything on Wikipedia as long as it is always NPOV. The example on criticism of same-sex marriage and other issues like anti-semitism were not NPOV or were simply innacurate. Examples: the use of a United Church of Canada pastor's critique of the UCC concerning anti-semitism, but listing the pastor as United Church - which is misleading - and not mentioning that the parish is in Canada, which lead's one to think it is in the USA. I deleted this entry as it approached vandalism. I do not think you posted that entry. However, you did post on same-sex marriage and stated that the Biblical Witness Fellowship is an organization within the UCC to which many UCC pastors and congregations belong. To my understanding, the word 'many' indicates a large number. The BWF is a minority organization within the UCC and very few UCC pastors and congregations are members. Considering its Dubuque statement of faith, which confesses a fundamentalist understanding of scripture, this is an organization to which few could have belonged to even at the UCC's creation in 1957. I have no issue with the BWF or its rights to free speach. I am interested only in the facts and a neutral point of view.Jm3106jr (talk) 14:35, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I was going by what the librarian said when I said "many". I couldn't find that in the printout, so I just went by what she said. Your edit looks good and I just wanted to make sure the minority view was represented. Either certain statements had been added since I first looked or I overlooked them.— Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 18:41, 27 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Constituent College

Hi, further to the St Cross thread (which I don't want to clutter) are you interested in other Oxford University articles? I have been looking at the college articles then moved on to other Oxford articles.81.86.211.166 (talk) 09:00, 2 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @81.86.211.166:, I might be interested in the PPHs and the two colleges without a royal charter. I think the Oxford PPHs can be deemed constituent halls. --IACOBVS (talk) 07:07, 6 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi IACOBVS, All the PPHs are described as "permanent private halls of Oxford University". I think this is reasonable as PPH is a term used both in oxford's statutes and more generally, for example in prospectuses. However I think more detail is needed: 1. In articles on the PPHs: some explain the difference between a PPH and a college and others don't; 2. In the main article on PPHs: I have added a section on the history of PPHs, but again there is not enough detail on how PPHs differ from colleges.

I agree that PPHs are constituent halls but wouldn't use the phrase in the articles. I find the use of the word constituent in the college articles confusing: as far as I can see it just means part of, so it could be, but isn't, used in the articles for Durham or York colleges. I would prefer to describe all the Oxford colleges as "colleges of Oxford University" in their wikipedia articles, if I had the time (or inclination) to discuss the subject on every Oxford (and Cambridge) college talk page.81.86.211.166 (talk) 11:15, 7 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
