I am not completely opposed to a merge that User:Phileasson proposed, but I do have some concerns. At this movement they are (but new ones may come up as others comment)
If a satisfactory merge can be made, then by all means merge them. They are very related, however, I don't think just sticking in a section on the New Temple into the "Provo Tabernacle" page will cut it.-- ARTEST4ECHO ( talk/ contribs) 16:01, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
The Salt Lake Tribune also ran an article here [1] on the construction progress on this temple. I am not sure there is anything worth adding to the article there. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 18:09, 20 April 2013 (UTC)
FWIW, the Church usually provides an exact list of the participants in all Utah temple dedications. In my mind, it would be very helpful for our purposes if such a list was provided every time a temple was dedicated. Then the question of who did what at each dedicatory session might be more easily settled. In my list of the participants, because the official list has yet to be released (though it should be very soon), I have drawn up a tentative participant list. This is based largely on information available in the photo gallery of the temple dedication, which is in the cited source, and also on who was in attendance at the cultural celebration last night. I respectfully ask my fellow editors to NOT unilaterally remove this list until a source can be cited to verify the truth. As I said, the list is forthcoming (within the next day or two) and the common-sense approach in my mind would be to hold off any edits to this list unless and until it can be verified. (Though in the same breath I gratefully acknowledge all who have tirelessly worked on getting this section up to snuff so far.) I should mention that the list is somewhat speculative on the points of Russell M. Nelson being the presiding official at one or more sessions of the dedication and as to whether Michael T. Ringwood is indeed an assistant Executive Director of the temple department. My gut feeling? That Ringwood's presence had more to do with him accompanying his aging apostolic father-in-law (President Nelson). President Nelson's health might have been a consideration in Elder Ringwood's abrupt reassignment to Church headquarters a couple of years ago. Thanks, friends! -- Jgstokes ( talk) 09:12, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
ChristensenMJ, I had no one specific in mind to which I directed this topic. I am absolutely mortified to learn that you think it was directed to you. I assure you, that was not my intention at all, and I never meant to slight you. All I wanted was to gain some type of consensus as to whether or not such a list is helpful. I understand and fully appreciate your honest expression of your opinion. That's all I was after. I would ask that we perhaps hold off on any removal of this list until more people have had a chance to comment. I want to keep an eye out for the list so that the question of who presided at this temple dedication can be properly settled. Oaks is said to be the presiding official at the dedication, but the Church News photo gallery clearly shows President Nelson in attendance at one session at least, which would make him the presiding official for that session. As there has been some confusion in the past on this point, such a list would serve to clarify the matter for all concerned. That's all I'm after at this point. At the end of the day, I just want a consensus decision on whether or not to include this section. I am of the opinion that such a list, if available for every temple dedication, would be good to include. Do you have any information as to whether or not Elder Ringwood is an Assistant Executive Director of the Temple Department, as I surmised he was from his attendance at this event? The articles available are not specific on this point, and if the matter is ever clarified, Ringwood's assignment would need to be included under his name in this article. In regards to that point, I have contacted Rick Satterfield, the webmaster of ldschurchtemples.com to see if he has any information. I also took the liberty of using the Feedback feature on lds.org to inquire as to whether we could get a complete list of general authority assignments to include on that page, not implying that I was representing Wikipedia in any official capacity, but just as a matter of general interest. Based on what they are able to tell me, that information might be able to be added to that article. I have also requested fair use images of the current apostles that we have not yet been able to find. I will keep you posted on all that good stuff. Thanks for the comment. -- Jgstokes ( talk) 05:09, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
