Talk:British and Foreign Bible Society

Untitled

I don't know much about the origins of the BFBS or Alfred Sturge, but it seems a little incongruent that he should be regarded as one of its founders, since he was born more than a decade after the organzation was started. The sentence on his involvement should probably be editted accordingly. Best wishes--

removal of content

Removing content from this article should have some reasoning behind it. Can the controversial section be broken down or separated outBrian0324 23:02, 4 January 2007 (UTC)?

It's just vandlism, this person seems to have a few pages he/she is determined to change for no real reason Ram4eva 22:50, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Principles of translations?

Does this society use any expressed translation principles or sources? ... said: Rursus (bork²) 11:48, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

Neutral

"Does anyone else feel that this page currently reads like an advert or promotional material from the concerned party? --Riche (talk) 15:57, 24 April 2009 (UTC)"

Yes, but that's hardly an argument against it. Every other page on Wikipedia reads like either an advert or a personal attack.
