Dean Ireland's Professor of the Exegesis of Holy Scripture

 * Nominator(s): BencherliteTalk 21:33, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

Not sure why I've ended up writing a list of theologians when I have no interest in theology, but it seemed like a good idea at the time (turned a red link blue, or something, I forget exactly which one). It also made a change from a list of Arabic scholars, when I have no interest in Arabic, and a list of librarians, when I have no interest in libraries (err)... Anyway, you get the picture – another WP:OXFORD list of academics, with absolutely no mention of cricket or baseball or similar. One image, with alt text; no dabs; no deadlinks. Bless you for reviewing, and may all your wiki-sins be forgiven as you do so. Incidentally, I have it on the very highest authority that reviewing this list is the spiritual equivalent of a pilgrimage to Rome. BencherliteTalk 21:33, 23 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Support.  Good raise  22:25, 23 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Support – my "quick look" was followed by a more in-depth look just now, which has revealed no areas of concern. One or two questions I would have raised have been covered by your answers to TRM's comments or by the changes made in response to them.  The gaps-between-tenures issue is not terribly important.  All looks fine!   Hassocks  5489 (tickets please!)  22:32, 24 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Quick comments from Hassocks, prior to fuller review later
 * Looking good; I will check in more depth later, but these things occurred to me on the first run-through:
 * Goodraise corrected one typo, but there is another lurking in E. P. Sanders's notes.
 * A wikilink to Atticism would add value.
 * There are some gaps between different professors' tenures (notably 1930 → 1932 and 1989 → 1991). An explanation of what happened during those periods would be beneficial (e.g. was the post vacant?).

 * Wikilink added, typo spotted and excommunicated. I've not found any discussion of why there were gaps between a couple of the professors, alas. BencherliteTalk 09:34, 24 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Support my many, many, many utterly trivial utterances were swept away in moments. And the ones which didn't go my way are a matter of taste, and won't stop me supporting.  Good work, as ever. The Rambling Man (talk) 18:32, 24 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Support - the only thing that I saw that needs to be corrected was "one of 12" - should be one of twelve or 1 of 12 - your pick. Cheers! KV5  ( Talk  •  Phils ) 15:49, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks, fixed. BencherliteTalk 15:54, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
