Regarding New Testament epistles
Where there is more than one book in a series (e.g. 1 and 2 and 3 John), I think it wold be beneficial to write about all three in one article ("The Epistles of John"), especially when it comes to debates about authorship.

But as it is now, most of the multi-book articles are barely more than stubs, so to create another stub-sized article to talk about authorship alone seems pointless.

Does anyone have a problem with me simply merging those into single articles?

(1 & 2 Corintians would become "Epistles to the Corinthians", 1 & 2 & 3 John would become "Epistles of John", and so on.)

I only see it as a problem for the fella who wrote the chapter-by-chapter summary of the three Epistles of John. But, if you ask me, that's far too much info anyway. A summary should be a couple of paragraphs per book, with any important points separated into a "Highlights" section. And THAT would work fine merged. --Jaban 01:34, 9 July 2010 (CDT)

Thanks for your feedback.

If I should happen to come up with something worth spreading, by all means I'd be very happy to have it spread! :-)

I was just allowing [my vanity?] to hope that I might be recognised as the originator of the idea. It might come in handy one day. (I know, I know. As likely as a 747 out of a scrapyard...)

It looks as if you have an interesting story to tell, I'll try to read it later today. --BronzeDome 02:50, 10 March 2011 (CST)
