Deletion

The article had been tagged by another editor as failing the notability guidelines. Although I have seen worse (you had one reference), basically we know only one thing about him, and usually one fact isn't enough to establish notability. We don't know his nationality (although the context suggests he may be American), date of birth (or death if he isn't still living), what his role in the development was, what his academic or technical background was... nothing really. We have one sentence giving one vague fact. If that's all there is, he's not notable. If you can beef up the article to make a proper entry with more refs, that would be great. Deleted text follows.

Asks for your opinion for Maidashi ryokuchi.

How do you do? My name is Hot cake syrup, I read your article Glover Garden with considerable interest, thank you.

Maidashi ryokuchi
is proposed deletion, but I think it is to leave over. The reason is that the park is not famous, but it has substantial implication for the Fukuoka's modern history. And in Wikipedia there are too few articles for Japanese garden. If your concurrence on my opinion, please note your comment on

translation help for National Archives

You may have heard of me, Im

National Archives
and Im wondering if you would be interested in setting something up between us to have these students work on translating from English to Spanish. We would have to do a fair amount of structuring as they are younger and with zero experience, but it can mean a large number of man/hours towards the project. For the students, its a chance to collaborate with a foreign institution.

Hope you like the idea! Thelmadatter (talk) 19:16, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

Letterism


John Granville Woolley, Civic Sermons, 1911:

"The ignorant, dogmatic letterist may groan over the 'apostate church' and watch for the Lord to dishonor her and stultify Himself; but there is no 'apostate church.' The crowd that puts on its best clothes on Sunday and goes to meeting, the aggregate of the parish censuses, is not the church. But in that, there is the old, true church, unscathed and undiscouraged. She has held up Christ, straight through the centuries, and the crowd has come to her with many aims and many isms and many sins


Ernst Hofer, The Lariat, 1923 - "Greek letterism"


Richard M Edwards, Scriptural Perspicuity in the Early English Reformation in Historical Theology

The Antiochenes (literalist) opposed the Alexandrian School's (letterist) interpretive methodology founded on the Greek/Jewish allegorical interpretive methodology.


Mal Couch, Russell Penney An introduction to classical evangelical hemeneutics: a guide to the history

"Following the Babylonian captivity, the Jewish rabbis fell into the quasi-worship of even the letters of scripture, adopting 'letterism' as a springboard to allegorization and spiritualization. They committed the sin about which Paul later wrote: 'The letter kills, but the spirit gives life'. (2 Cor 3:6). To their credit, not all the rabbis fell into letterism or, later, allegory".

N. D. Ahuja, The essence and the fragrance, 1975

"However, 'legalism' (fiqak) and 'letterism' (tafsir) engulfed the teachings of the Prophet with lapse of time and the Esseence of God-Realization was, to a great extent, lost in the cob-webs created by Ulema-i-su ie the self-seeking "

new articles

Please be a little more careful with your new articles--you certainly have enough experience to do them well when you take the trouble. Supportive selling environment was missing the really essential link--perhaps because the word was mis-spelled, and could certainly have used a wider array of sources.

For Wincenty Aksamitowski you translated the first sentence only. This is not really considered good practice now, so i filled the military career in a little fro the French article & the Google translation of the Polish--please check that I got it right & did not misinterpret.
