Merging of Corinthian-pages to First Epistle to the Corinthians
Has there been any discussion here of merging the Corinthian-pages to First Epistle to the Corinthians? See, for example, diff, edit-summary "no material worth merging." Pinging user:Beland to join the discussion. Regards, Joshua Jonathan  -  Let's talk!  07:12, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
 * I have not opened a previous discussion about merging chapter-specific articles into the book article. This page and many others were created by the since-banned User:JohnThorne and consist almost entirely of snippets of Bible text translation and some willy-nilly commentary. This user was apparently in the habit of adding copyrighted material, excessive detail, and original research. The content of these articles does not follow NPOV very well, as the random comments tend to represent a single POV on a given phrase. There are thousands if not millions of one-off comments on these verses, so picking one or two is somewhat random, and including all of them is not feasible. What we can do is talk about important or notable controversies concerning specific passages, and where these articles contain that sort of content, I've been merging it up to the article on the whole book. I've also been merging up objective and factual context about these books, but most of that is formulaic and repeated across every chapter article (which means merging them saves a lot of space and makes reading a lot easier). -- Beland (talk) 22:01, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
