It's a little late for the canned welcome message, as you've been contributing for quite some time already, but I noticed that your talk page was blank. I came here from your post at the Help Desk. Generally on wikipedia, as regards content inclusion, we attempt to present a balanced compilation of different viewpoints, reflecting both what the available sources state and what information the article's readers are likely to be seeking. In the case of JW eschatology, it is appropriate for the history section to be as long as it is, because, for a non-JW reader, the past predictions and beliefs are as significant or even more so than the current views of the JW church. Also, while (in my opinion) it is good that you are representing the JW viewpoint on here, as it helps us catch potential POV problems, you should be aware that as a one-issue editor you will tend to be considered less credible in disputes. It is therefore especially important that you be careful to avoid controversial edit wars. So far as I have seen, you're doing fine, but I just wanted to give you a head's up as to that aspect of wiki culture. If you should run into problems, feel free to drop a message on my talk page, as I have some experience in acting as a go-between in religion-related disputes. -- LWG ^talk 17:02, 17 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
