	I just put another note at the start of the A section to point out that adding definitions to this page isn't exactly useful. I'm going to snag some of them and shove them into the page for the term in question. Should we remove the listings of the words that do have definitions?

		+	:I've been on the fence about this, Blain. As I mentioned above, the vast majority of these definitions came from the source -- I left them on the list so that we have some context when trying to come up with a definition. (sometimes the Mormon usage of a word doesn't always spring quickly to mind). But, I think leaving the words on the Potential Terms list makes it easier to see what has been done already (for those working the list). Of course, it also makes the list so long that it has to put off some people!
		+
		+	:So, I'm on the fence about deleting or not. [[User:WikiSysop\|Kent Larsen]] 14:45, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

	:You do realize that the definitions aren't meant to go on this page, right? The idea is to first review the term to make sure that it should be included (i.e., that it has a Mormon meaning or use that is different than non-Mormon meaning or use), then create a definition and click on the term and add the definition to the page. The idea is to have one page for each definition.     [[User:WikiSysop\|WikiSysop]] 16:07, 16 September 2008 (CDT)		:You do realize that the definitions aren't meant to go on this page, right?

		+	:David, there isn't anyone trying to do this. I pulled together these lists of terms from a variety of places, including some anti-Mormon sites (they had a lot of terms that I didn't find elsewhere). I have tried to remove definitions that are not objective or that were blatantly anti-Mormon, but have tried to leave in information that might help in creating definitions.
