Use of the term "Mormon"

[edit]

Please follow the manual of style on this issue, which is found at WP:LDSMOS. Unless we're referring exclusively to the LDS Church and/or Mormon fundamentalists and/or pre-succession crisis Mormonism, we don't generally use the term. This book is used outside of those limited groups in the Latter Day Saint movement. Good Ol’factory (talk) 21:22, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Retranslation"

[edit]

Surely calling this a "retranslation" is an instance of bias? It would be more neutral to call it a rewriting or an expansion since nothing was actually translated (or even claimed to be translated, as these expansions are purportedly from revelation rather than an actual text).Metz77 (talk) 14:02, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
