Archiving citation
Hi! Thanks for fixing the dead link in Seismic wave. It's much preferred, however, to parse the original URL and the archive URL separately within the citation. In this case, the original URL was dead, even in archive.org's backups, so I'm glad you found a live one! There are parameters in cite that are specifically for archiving:,  , and. The  field always contains the non-archived link, never the archival one. If it's still working, then set, and the template sets up that URL as the link to the source. If , then the source link becomes the archival URL. But the original URL, whether dead or not, is always kept. I fixed this one, but no doubt you'll run across more. Thanks for looking out for these! — Gorthian (talk) 18:09, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

Jehovah's Witnesses
Hi. Your edit at Jehovah's Witnesses has been partially reverted, as the assertion that the Watch Tower Society is the official name for the religious denomination is not accurate, and it is particularly misleading to suggest that The Watch Tower Society reports a membership of 8.3 million. The sources you cited variously said that the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society and the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society are the official name of Jehovah's Witnesses, but they aren't even the same single corporation, the former being incorporated in Pennsylvania, and the latter being the name of a New York corporation as well as the name of a number of subsidiary corporations in various countries. Not only are the great majority of 'rank and file' JWs not members of the 'Society' (or of the subsidiary corporations), but even most 'elders' are not members of the corporations.-- Jeffro 77 (talk) 13:21, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
