Talk:Teachings

merge from teaching

Certain essential parts (direct vs. indirect teaching) can be added to the opening paragraph, particularly considering that it has been flagged as not conforming to Bahaipedias' quality standards. Ernobe (talk) 13:50, 5 March 2025 (EST)

Teaching and teachings are different concepts, I'm not sure it's possible to merge them. Teaching is an action that people do. Teachings are a set of principles that people believe in. David (talk) 20:10, 5 March 2025 (EST)

Agreed, I don't think there's much possible overlap here, unless we wanted to include a mention of the importance of teaching the Cause as something important that Bahá’u’lláh taught. Dragfyre (talk) 11:12, 6 March 2025 (+08)

If teaching is just an action that people do, unrelated to the principles they believe in, why have you suggested that the teaching article be re-written so as to serve as a gateway not a destination? Ernobe (talk) 11:48, 6 March 2025 (EST)

I'm not sure I understand, that policy doesn't dictate what content allowed on the site. The reason the notification is on the article is because there are several paragraphs that do not allow the reader to segue into the Bahai writings that support the statements made.
