Talk:Theology/Seminary Notes/Seminary Chapbook

User:Marshallsumter added a Delete tag, noting 'orphaned page, no apparent purpose, possibly solicitation for the source of the outline, with the exception of an added category this resource has been abandoned since 2009.'

I've been looking this one over, and aside from the link at the top which should be moved to the bottom as an External Links entry of some type, I think this would have use as theology or seminary notes collected in an appropriate learning project. There are many other pages by this author and (perhaps his classmates) that could be brought together in this learning project. It's really no different than student notes from a chemistry class, law class, business class, etc. The collected notes are extensive enough to provide educational value in my view, as they provide perspective on the studies included in and by this profession.

The question is where to move the collection to. There is a Topic:Historical Christian theology which links to this resource, but I'm not sure all of the pages are historical. What I personally would like to do with these pages is move them under Theology as the learning project. The corresponding school page makes it clear that Religious Studies isn't appropriate, as those are for secular study rather than a non-secular view. Putting them under theology would allow those interested in the topic easy access to these theological resources.

Thoughts? -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 01:03, 5 September 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for commenting on this one! If these classmates were studying what a Seminary is perhaps the learning project could be Theology/Seminary with these apparent class notes collected under this or Theology/Seminary/Class notes. As I recall, I believe a Seminary is a school designed to prepare students to be religious providers such as priests, rabbis, mullahs, ministers, and others. --Marshallsumter (discuss • contribs) 03:40, 5 September 2014 (UTC)

For now I merged the two ideas and went with Seminary Notes. Perhaps someone in the future will have additional information on the Seminary itself, particularly as it relates to different religions, that they would like to add as a separate page or pages later. -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 18:51, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
