Talk:Daniel Avery (Latter Day Saints)

Disambiguator
I moved this article back to the "(Latter Day Saints)" disambiguator. I guess WP:MOSLDS isn't completely clear on this and I'm not sure what the correct thing to do is. It seems that "(Mormon)" is generally only used for people who either were members of the LDS Church or who were Mormon fundamentalists. It doesn't seem to be used for people who were members only of the pre-1844 church or for members of other Latter Day Saint groups. For example, William Smith (Latter Day Saints), Samuel H. Smith (Latter Day Saints), and so forth. Avery was never a member of the LDS Church—he was in the pre-1844 church and then joined with the Strangites. So I think "Latter Day Saints" may be more accurate than calling him a "Mormon"? Good Ol’factory (talk) 22:03, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry I see my error. I misread MOSLDS item #4.--ARTEST4ECHO (talk/contribs) 22:09, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I guess we could add a #5 that mentions using (Latter Day Saints), but I'm not sure how much support there is currently for this approach? Or if we should just use (Mormon) in all cases. Good Ol’factory (talk) 22:46, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
 * You know, I really don't think it matters. The only reason I changed it was that I happen to be working on finding images for a page using "(Mormon)" when I came to this page.  When it came up it seemed odd to have two different formats, so I went to MOSLDS and, at the time, it seemed to me that "(Mormon)" was the way it was supposed to be titled.  However as you point out that isn't true. So if you want to see if a change can be agreed upon or not, really isn't a big deal to me.--ARTEST4ECHO (talk/contribs) 12:15, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Sounds good. Thanks. I may raise the issue at MOSLDS at some point to see if others have any strong opinions about it. Good Ol’factory (talk) 22:54, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
