While removing text because it is controversial is probably not the best, I do agree that connecting BoM people to archeology can get tricky, it might be worthwhile for some of it to link to the appropriate section of Proposed Book of Mormon geographical setting.

I think the article is much better than when you started editing it. I agree with the last edit, links should almost *never* be in section headers. I've personally had to do some acrobatics to deal with that rule, but I agree with it. Naraht ( talk) 18:21, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
On 13 December 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Book of Mormon monetary system, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that it is debated whether or not Nephites used minted coins? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Book of Mormon monetary system. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, Book of Mormon monetary system), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Hello.
Is there any chance you would be willing to step away from Mormon topics? Are there resources at the library for which you work that are about topics unrelated to Mormon beliefs? I think those might be a more appropriate outlet given WP:NPOV problems I am seeing with your edit history vis-a-vis Mormonism in particular.

Hi there. I am not LDS, but I am religious, and I know how to follow policy on contentious topics without getting in trouble. It is very hard to write about anything from a religious perspective. A few months ago, I saw one of your articles get approved at DYK by a fairly experienced editor, even though I wouldn't have approved it myself. See Talk:Saints_Peter_and_Paul_Seminary for a similar example. If you want, you can write articles related to the Book of Mormon in your userspace, and I'll move it to the mainspace if I don't think the edits will cause controversy. I am not sure if the community would allow this though. Scorpions1325 ( talk) 23:34, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 02:19, 9 May 2024 (UTC)Hey, if you are having further discussions about a GA review outside of the review page it would be great if you could involve the nominator. I only found out about your reliable sources discussion after another editor made a decision about it when I really should have been involved in that discussion from the start.

On 10 June 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article A Modern Mephistopheles, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Louisa May Alcott wrote A Modern Mephistopheles as part of an anonymous series in which readers were meant to guess the author? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/A Modern Mephistopheles. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, A Modern Mephistopheles), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed.
