Hell on Wikiquote!

Thankyou for your good faith creation of Hell/In Christianity. You linked it to w:en:Hell which via Wikidata d:Q564 which goes back to Hell here. There may be reasons for (undiscussed) splits on fundamental pages like this but it can be difficult to automatically mode well in Wikidata, confirm the set of split pages are consistent, and also to extrapolate where (in hell) this is going. I'd be grateful if you could explain this so I can try to ensure this split is consistent and the pages on hell are not duplicating over the same area and I can work out how to model this on Wikidata. It get harder (but no eye-of-the-needle impossible) if there is not a 1-to-1 mapping between English Wikipedia pages and Wikiquote pages and things alos have a tendency to end up in a heap if this clear mapping is not present. Thankyou. -- DeirgeDel ^t_a^c 17:22, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

Hi! The Wikiquote page Hell/In Christianity links to the Wikipedia page w:Hell in Christianity, not w:Hell. Both the link in the description and in the External links section go to w:Hell in Christianity. So there should already be a 1-to-1 mapping between Wikiquote and Wikipedia here, unless I am mistaken? BurningLibrary (talk) 18:36, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

On hell! I think its me who messed up. Thanks. That makes things simple and I've sorted the sitelinks. I'll have to go to heaven for this instead! -- DeirgeDel ^t_a^c 19:29, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

Your good humor is appreciated. It is, perhaps, the most sensible attitude to take towards a topic as dark as this one. BurningLibrary (talk) 20:33, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

(Barn)star for your work on Jewish symbolism

BurningLibrary deserves a star here!

Thanks for doing the work on building a good solid article about a very interesting topic. I especially value the way you found at least one good quotable quote about many different important topics, clearing a space for future editors. HouseOfChange (talk) 12:48, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the kind words. BurningLibrary (talk) 13:45, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
