Creation

I have created this article with a basic definition. As always, hop in and collaborate! --Michael Yates 16:35, 15 August 2008 (CDT)

Citing

I am unsure about how to cite my sources in these artices or what may be considered common knowledge. Any help is appreciated Michael Yates 17:02, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Filioque

This word needs either to be defined or removed from the subheader. Ro Thorpe 17:15, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

I'm not sure what you mean. There is now a small section in the article on this subject.Michael Yates 18:31, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Indeed, but it doesn't mention the mysterious word. Ro Thorpe 18:41, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

I see. Good call. I have included it in two places now to clarify. Do you think they would suffice for the average reader?Michael Yates 18:48, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Yes, that's fine. I confess I didn't recognise it as Latin (filioque = et filio) & was mentally pronouncing it in a French way...! Ro Thorpe 18:53, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Haha. Thanks for the useful suggestion. Michael Yates 19:09, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Disambiguation

This may need a disambiguation, such as Trinity (Christianity). Offhand, Trinity was also the code name for the first nuclear weapons test, and has been used in a number of political contexts. Closely related words such as Triad also have multiple definitions. Howard C. Berkowitz 17:20, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
