[edit] Wikimedia Foundation receives copyright infringement claim from Mormon Church
From w:The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints -- "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, widely known as the LDS Church or the Mormon Church..." I went with "Mormon Church" because this is a "widely known" name as well, and to use the entire "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" is very very long in the headline of an article. I hope you do not mind if I move it back. Cirt (talk) 04:58, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for your response. I respect your opinion, though I also respectfully disagree, as a perusal of similar types of news stories about this organization seems to hold that "Mormon Church", is used more frequently than "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints". Thanks for the polite response. Cheers, Cirt (talk) 19:07, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks!
Thank you for taking the time to point out the transcription error in this article about Noam Chomsky. I had to listen to it several times before I was sure exactly what he said. Good ears;). Gopher65talk 23:13, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
