Also, I checked out the neutral point of view and external link guidelines. I can find many citations to support the validity/reliability/factuality of the edits. I may be able to work on and complete this: do you have any suggestions, advice, guidance, help, etc you may be able to offer? Thanks so very much, Thankful777 (talk) 20:20, 12 February 2010 (UTC) (Thankful777 (talk) 20:20, 12 February 2010 (UTC)). Also, I checked out the neutral point of view and external link guidelines.

Regarding your edits

Re your message: I read what you had added to the two articles. Unfortunately, I do not feel that the tone of the additions was appropriate. See Wikipedia's policy on a neutral point of view. Your additions of the blog were not appropriate per the external link guidelines. You may be interested in joining the Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity, which has organized to help develop Christian articles. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 20:05, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Re your message: The problem with your edits is that they have a sermon kind of tone, which is not appropriate. Wikipedia articles are supposed to have a neutral, encyclopedic style explaining the topic, not a sermon style. Your use of all capitals and mixed capitals is part of the issue. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 20:26, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Re your message: Sure, but instead of repeating what others have already written, there is an extensive help section on how and when to use sources available at Wikipedia:Citing sources. Wikipedia has a very extensive set of help documents at Help:Contents. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 20:30, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
