Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date).

James, brother of Jesus
Howdy hello! I see that you added some information to the article James, brother of Jesus. I have reverted it, because it is considered original research. For the most part we don't just let folks add bible verses to articles. The problem with adding any given bible verse without the context of a reliable secondary source is that its hard to know what weight to give it. That means that of course the bible can be used to give a lot of different conclusions (case in point: there are many, many sects of Christianity that all see different parts of the bible as more/less important.) If you'd like to add information in the article, I invite you do so, but you must cite a reliable secondary source. Good places are biblical scholars, biblical professors at universities, or books on the subject. If you would like to ask me any questions or have any issues, make sure you preface your reply with so that I can be alerted. Happy editing! Captain Eek Edits Ho Cap'n! 05:09, 5 March 2019 (UTC)

Got it. Thanks!
