Monogamy

edit

I answered you on the talk page with a reference but you continue to revert the page. What gives? It is a common term used by anthropologists to refer to all primates. However, please note that anthropologists do not deal with animals that are not primates. The term extends in zoology to all animals. It is the same concept covering the same general set of animal behaviors, whether in birds, chimps or humans. Please stop disrupting the page to push your POV.Griswaldo (talk) 10:22, 23 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

BTW this is definition #3 in the OED -- 3. Zool. The habit of animals, esp. certain birds and primates, of living in pairs, or of having only one mate. Homo sapiens are most certainly in the primate group. The OED does not make the distinction you want to make at all.Griswaldo (talk) 10:25, 23 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
It does not matter if it is a subscription service. The formatting of the citation, including the link, is per OED's request on how to cite their entries. Anyone with access to an academic library should be able to see OED online. Anyway online availability is by no means required in using a source.Griswaldo (talk) 14:44, 23 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
Yes but once again that is not a restriction on Wikipedia. Many people don't have access to most of the books and journals cited here.Griswaldo (talk) 16:01, 23 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Augustine of Hippo & Anthropology

edit

Your inclusion of a section on Augustine of Hippo as the 1st Christian anthropologist is without any factual substantiation and in fact, appears to be original research [original research?] or some form of POV. Further, the inclusion of his arguments on the soul and monogamous marriage have nothing to do with anthropology at all. If this is information that you want to include in the article, then you may want to find another section to put it in or rename the section and remove the contention that he was a "Christian anthropologist" as your supporting remarks to are not indicative. What does the soul have to do with anthropology? Stevenmitchell (talk) 08:43, 20 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hi. When you recently edited Sacraments of Initiation, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Grace and Word of God (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Pages

edit

Hi, As stated on my user page, I plan to gradually fade away from Wikipedia. I am still watching some pages, but not as often as before, and the trend will be to reduce involvement. Given that you seem to know the St. Faustina topic well, if you could add a pages to your watchlist and guard against vandalism and crazy edits that will be appreciated. Most of these pages are very stable and hardly get any vandalism, but it would still be good to have someone look at them once in a while.

I think what you may be interested are: Mary Faustina Kowalska, Divine Mercy, Divine Mercy image, Divine Mercy Sunday, Diary: Divine Mercy in My Soul, Michael Sopocko, etc.

Your help will be greatly appreciated. History2007 (talk) 14:54, 11 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

Thank you. The pages are pretty stable, and hardly get changed. But the general vandalism control is not enough because the people keeping an eye on them need to know the topic. That was why I thought of asking you. Thanks. History2007 (talk) 14:29, 25 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Faith in Christianity, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Good News (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Re:Revertions of Editor2020

edit

Dear User:Quodvultdeus, thanks for your message on my talk page. Given that User:Editor2020 did not have an edit summary in the reversion, I am guessing that it was probably an accidental click while he/she was looking at his/her watchlist. However, you may wish to ask User:Editor2020 if he/she does. Upon doing a quick glance at your edits, I do not see any issues. I hope this helps. With regards, AnupamTalk 15:56, 8 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
