Question[edit]

"A major step in Seventh-day Adventist's understanding of Righteousness by Faith occurred in 1888. " is a monumentally uninformative statement - what on earth does it mean? Kvetch 13:33, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Problem with plurals[edit]

The first two sentences read:

The 1880s was a decade that began on January 1, 1880 and ended on December 31, 1889. They occurred at the core period of the Second Industrial Revolution.

The term 1880s is treated as singular (1880s was) and also a plural (They occurred) one of these should be chosen and stuck to, but I don't know which would be better. 86.13.119.97 (talk) 06:57, 5 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
