Topic talk:Protestantism
From Wikiversity
"..moving us away from traditionalism" - I'd like to see this page moving beyond making implicit judgements of other religions (such as, I presume, "traditionalism" referring to Catholicism). If this sentence said something like: "..moving away from the perceived limitations of Catholicism" (note, also dropping the "us"), then I think it would be setting a better precedent for discussing Protestantism and the thinking that provoked the Reformation. Note that on Wikiversity, while we will not be applying the concept of neutrality in the same way is done on Wikipedia (see w:WP:NPOV), we will still want to educate people in a broad sense, rather than 'limit' thinking (that's the best way I can put it for now) in the introduction to a subject. See Wikiversity:Disclosures for more on this (even though it is not yet exactly comprehensive). Thanks. Cormaggio 18:13, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for acting on this so swiftly :-). I don't mean to barge in, and I really want to give you leeway in presenting your own materials - I just read that and thought, "hmm, maybe this needs a better intro.." Cormaggio 18:32, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Pages based on Religions
I'm adding links to pages based on some protestant religions, maybe someone else could add their knowledge in as well. Alex43223 Talk | Contribs | E-mail 02:01, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] How far are we willing to go as a "versity"...
Should we include as much information as we can but section it off in such a way that it isn't overwhelming. To have a huge page on "Protestantism" would put people off. But if we had smaller pages including the same information, they would get more out of it. --StephenDeloney 21:14, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
- Modularity is good. Also, Wikiversity is not the place to write encyclopedia articles or books. --JWSchmidt 21:17, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Pre-Reformation Movements to be included?
Will there be courses in people like the Hussites? I am more than happy to contribute to that. AlistairReece 06:24, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
