TSE?

I don't understand how "Sacred Scriptures Bethel Edition" abbreviates to "TSE". Care to explain?--Editor2020 (talk) 23:24, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

I find it a little difficult to understand too. But, I've done a little research and realized that different countries have different abbreviated forms of the Bible. In most parts of America it is called SSBE or simply SBE. In England it is usually the same, but some call it TSE (The Sacred Scriptures Edition), while in foreign countries sometimes it is referred to as BE (Bethel Edition). Hope that helps.

Prefer block quote.

On your recent edit to SSBE your edit summary was "prefer block quote". Normally, Wikipedia doesn't use blockquote for one line quotes. See WP:MOSQUOTE

"A long quote (more than four lines, or consisting of more than one paragraph, regardless of number of lines) is formatted as a block quotation, which Wikimedia's software will indent from both margins. Block quotes are not enclosed in quotation marks..."--Editor2020 (talk) 23:32, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for your help Editor. I've added a different quote type to organize the page better. I plan to extend the quote later. Kiddish.K (talk) 10:43, 30 October 2008 (UTC)

Yahshua

Hi Kiddish.K, looks like you figured out a bit about reverting edits, but there are a few problems: you broke Pip2andahalf's name in the edit summary, and it wasn't Pip you were reverting anyway (Pip was reverting a real vandal/mistaken-edit) - if you are reverting a series of unrelated edits, you would normally just say "revert to version by Safeguarded"; and if you are also going to correct a typo, you really should note that; and you are actually reverting User:Jayjg, who is really not a vandal at all, but maybe someone you disagree with. I see you've started conversation on the talk page though, which is the most important thing. Franamax (talk) 18:48, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Ok, thank you for the help! By the way, I'd be happy to talk to you about the Yahshua article if you think what I reverted to was wrong. And I'll take your advice gladly.
