User talk:Sdbhist/Sabbath and Seventh-day Baptists

Considering the pages of other Sabbath-keeping Christian groups, namely the Seventh Day Adventists, the creation of this page makes sense. I'm not fully versed in the rules of the community and would be more than happy to see the page edited for consistency to accepted forms, but it should exist by virtue of it's connection to the discussion of Sabbath and the existence of a current page on Seventh Day Baptist(s).
 * There are indeed a lot of rules in the Wikipedia community. As for this article, it does not seem to be written in an encyclopedic tone (i.e. "We believe...").  Instead, it should be "Sabbath and Seventh-day Baptists believe".  That way it doesn't sound like a conflict of interest.  Also, some verifiable, third-party sources must be cited as to whether the adherents of this religion actually believe the items listed.  Most Wikipedians do not classify the Bible as a "verifiable, third-party source", but I don't want to get into an argument in regards to the reliability of the biblical canon.

As for the statements that begin, "We believe," I simply removed them from the www.seventhdaybaptist.org webpage. The entry is quoting directly from those statements, not making them part of the entry itself. The article's syntax makes this abundantly clear with the statement, "from the Statement of Belief of Seventh Day Baptists" and the footnote. Again, I'll have to read up a bit more, but careful reading is in order. My formatting errors are likely the reason why.Sdbhist 20:08, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
