I'm sorry, I did not use anything as a soap box. And I only added a citation to a piece that was already there. I did not add the piece about Ignatius Press.]
I see that you were responding to a {{cn}} request about the re-release of the works, which is commendable. Looking again at the edit history, I see that it was the poster of that piece of information who was soapboxing; it was unfortunate that the link you added, to the bookseller's website, was so blatantly (Donate to Ignatius Press and buy our books!)

H. A. Ironside

I'm not interested in giving you a hard time, CrossReach, so I thought I'd copy here what I wrote in reply on my own talk page a few days ago. (Generally, folks answer stuff on their own talk pages, but I thought you might not know this.)

Let me suggest that you keep all such information out of the lead, source with citations information you want to add to the article (Who called Ironside the pope of fundamentalism?), and put any list of Ironside's famous contemporaries in the notes. All the best, John Foxe (talk) 18:11, 6 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Those 3 people were all Fundamentalist Evangelical preachers with whom Ironside shared a great deal. Of course he was contemporaneous with a billion people but they have a special significance and interest to people interested in the life of H. A. Ironside. Torrey used to pastor the very same church Ironside pastored. Gipsy Smith spoke at Moody on at least 3 occasions. And Morgan was called the Prince of Expositors. Harry was the called the Archbishop of Fundamentalism. Both are considered two of the greatest Fundamentalist preachers of the first half of the 20th century.]
I think I could make just as good a case for
James M. Gray, Billy Sunday, and Paul Rader. In any case, a bunch of names are out of place in an article's lead.--John Foxe (talk) 18:19, 25 February 2017 (UTC)[reply

You're probably right. I also hadn't seen your reply. Is this the right place to make a response? I'm a bit of novice with the whole Wikipedia thing and I just add stuff as I go along with my own unrelated research into various authors. My intention for doing so is just to try and share the information that I have found and that may be of some use to others. I had seen another article on another famous religious leader that had mentioned who he was contemporaneous with, so I thought it was the thing to do. Sorry about that. All the best.

Interestingly I just came across F. B. Meyer's page. In the article's lead he is described, without proper citation, as the Archibishop of the Free Churches. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F._B._Meyer

Normally, I expect folks to answer on their own talk page, and obviously I did check back.
Wikipedia articles come in all qualities from absolutely embarrassing to Britannica quality. (I'm not embarrassed to say that I think some biographies I've contributed to are the best in existence, including print sources, e.g. Frank Sandford). So, regardless of what's out there, it's best to follow WP rules as much as possible and cite sources.--John Foxe (talk) 21:30, 6 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Very well written, and someone I did not know about. He was connected earlier on with not only A. B. Simpson, but E. W. Kenyon and R. A. Torrey. But they all broke cords with him after they detected he was steering well off the Evangelical course. I found this information in Joe McIntyre's book on Kenyon which I have been planning on buying for some time. https://books.google.ie/books?id=1G-6MrfFM6YC&lpg=PA98&ots=eRar_Ye7ps&dq=Frank%20Sandford%20writings&pg=PA98#v=onepage&q=Frank%20Sandford%20writings&f=false

New categories

Hi, I deleted a category that you had tagged as

WP:G7, and then moved some of your other new categories to lowercase. I don't normally do this out-of-process, but it seemed appropriate to me to WP:Ignore all rules in these simple cases. I hope you have no objection. – Fayenatic London 20:51, 19 August 2018 (UTC)[reply

Hi, that's great. I had actually realised I had made a mistake. Made a new category, but didn't know how to delete the old one. So I was hoping a more experienced user would find it and rectify the situation. (DJKinsella (talk) 10:09, 7 September 2018 (UTC))[reply]
