CWA v. CWFA and Citation Links[edit]

I believe the correct acronym for Concerned Women for America is CWA, but a few times it is written as CWFA. The dates in which Penny Young Nance was CEO are written strangely at the bottom and should be condensed to one line. Also, many of the links in the references do not work. Jfunsten (talk) 18:55, 8 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Seven Core Issues[edit]

I think that there should be a new section added to this page about the CWAs Seven Core Issues, which are Sanctity of Life, Defense of Family, Education, Religious Liberty, National Sovereignty, Sexual Exploitation and Support for Isreal. This is their mission statement and I think highlighting that would bring about a more well rounded page. You can find this information on their website under the "Issues" tab. Rebmorse (talk) 10:38, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Consideration for Possible Additions/Factual Support[edit]

discuss CWA's opinions/actions in further depth (highlight specific topics i.e. domestic violence, motherhood, women's health)

Social Conservative vs Christian organization[edit]

Calling it a conservative Christian organization is not encompassing the fact that it is a social conservative organization (this classification is based on stances). It is mentioned just a line or 2 down that they are a Christian organization. As such, I am reverting it back to saying that this is a social conservative group. Also, I am attempting to use outside sources besides the organizations website, so try to limit the citations of the website itself. Bre579 (talk) 02:56, 21 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

What sources do you have that say they are a social concervative organization and not a conservative Christian organization? I strongly believe you should reconsider since their website states "Through sound research and education, the Beverly LaHaye Institute will stand strong in defense of the family, Judeo-Christian values and those conservative principles that build responsible citizens and cultivate strong families, communities and nations" Lipsquid (talk) 03:19, 21 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

And as I look back over the edits, I see the long term stable version of the article had "Christian" in the first sentence of the lede. We should look for compromise wording here. Lipsquid (talk) 03:22, 21 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I edited it so that it says social conservative Christian organization. I feel as though this is a good compromise. I wasn't saying it wasn't Christian, but was also trying to stay with the fact that it is socially conservative. Hopefully this helps to alleviate the issues both of us had with the wording. Bre579 (talk) 03:43, 21 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That works very well for me. Thank you for the compromise. Warm regards, Lipsquid (talk) 03:46, 21 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. The point is to make the page better! Bre579 (talk) 07:27, 21 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Working Through the Media[edit]

I am not sure I like this heading, I was thinking something more along the lines of Outreach to Supporters or Media Platforms... any other ideas or thoughts? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bre579 (talk • contribs) 15:45, 21 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Do you think simply titling it "Outreach" would be sufficient? Bbuonocore (talk) 09:05, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

2004 — 2013 archived[edit]

This talkpage covers discussions from 2004 up to 2017 — or, if we count one minor bot edit,[1] up to 2019. It's surely time the "Archive 1" got used. I have archived 2004 to 2013; the cutoff line was pretty organic, as there was no discussion in 2014 or 2015. Happy editing, all, with a hope for livelier furture discussions.
