 | Explanation of Wikipedia outlines Outlines on Wikipedia are a type of list article. "Outline" refers to the format of the article, not its topic, which is identified after "Outline of" in the title. "Outline" is short for "hierarchical outline", which is a type of tree structure, in which levels are represented with headings and indented list items.Together, the outlines form a subject classification system, to help organize knowledge into related areas. Because of this, they are one of WP's Contents systems. Each outline serves as a site map for its subject. These navigation aids can help you find your way around areas of knowledge on WP, even when you are not sure what you are looking for. For more in-depth explanations, and instructions on how to develop outlines, see Wikipedia:Outlines and Wikipedia:WikiProject Outlines. There are currently over 900 stand-alone outlines on WP. For the main list of them, see Wikipedia:Contents/Outlines. |
What type of thing is God?
[edit]We ought to also include discussion about God's "thingness", i.e. views that reject the idea that the Lord can be taken as an object. Thoughts? Kakurokuna (talk) 16:57, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
- I'm not sure exactly what you mean, can you provide an example? Madeleinesinging (talk) 17:43, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
I'm not so sure about the "non-physical entity" characteristic. Many polytheistic belief systems (which we mention in the introduction) have gods which exist squarely in the physical realm.
On publication
[edit]The list of publication has already(rightly so) been marked as awkward in comments. Instead of listing by religious affiliations, maybe list by Scriptures, Sociology,Theology, ect. Corvus poe (talk) 09:18, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
