Hi Sigeng, |
|||
I added back the list of books for Ray Comfort. |
|||
I don't think the consensus is right in saying that a small selection of books should be posted. Wikipedia is a tool for everyone who wants to look Ray Comfort up and see ALL the books that have been written by him. Otherwise, if someone wants to see if Ray wrote X book, goes on Wikipedia and doesn't see it listed, may think that he wasn't the author for it. |
|||
I'd appreciate if we can leave the list (even if extensive) as is. After all, he is a writer and best-seller author. |
|||
Thanks! |

Hi Sigeng,
I added back the list of books for Ray Comfort.
I don't think the consensus is right in saying that a small selection of books should be posted. Wikipedia is a tool for everyone who wants to look Ray Comfort up and see ALL the books that have been written by him. Otherwise, if someone wants to see if Ray wrote X book, goes on Wikipedia and doesn't see it listed, may think that he wasn't the author for it.
I'd appreciate if we can leave the list (even if extensive) as is. After all, he is a writer and best-seller author.
Thanks!

Sigeng,
please tell me which sources re John G Lake you feel that I need to provide and I can paste them back into this section. The message you left on my talk page did not really specify what you wanted me to give you

Sigeng,
ok, I can easily find the source material (prob all from newspapers going on memory) on all these statements. If I have time tonight I will add them. Tommorrow is more likely, but I will add soon.
Re Burpeau, yes, he went to extensive lengths to find out about the "seminary" in Newberry, MI, and found out that it did not exist. The local Methodist church historian told him about a "sunday school" that existed, and Burpeau maintained that this is what Lake attended. In any case, this did not happen. I read through the Newberry newspaper for the relevant years and Lake was not at the Sunday school, nor was he ever in Newberry. His wife was from Newberry, but the newspaper indicates that she and her mother left her father (marital separation?) and moved to Sault Ste Marie, where the Stephens family lived a couple of doors down from the Lakes. I don't know how much you care, but check their original houses at Google Street View, 705 Bingham Ave, Sault Ste Marie, Lake house is green.
Burpeau's book is full of things like this--every time he finds that Lake did not do as he claimed, he creates a cover tale for him. Dozens of instances of this. Anyway, I have a lot of new material on Lake.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Mark Driscoll (pastor), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Salon (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.

Sigeng--I do not know what you are referring to here. I have never heard of Driscoll or even visited his Wikipedia page — Preceding unsigned comment added by Barry Morton (talk • contribs) 13:03, 10 April 2014 (UTC)
Barry Morton, Wikipedia is arcane. The comment above was "DPL bot" complaining about another edit I made to the Mark Driscoll page. You probably have my talk page on a watchlist because you've written on it before, so it notifies you of changes even if you don't care. It will probably be less annoying to not have my Talk page on your watchlist. -Sigeng (talk) 19:16, 10 April 2014 (UTC)
