I just noticed that out the twenty edits you have made since joining our encyclopedia, only three have been to actual articles, with all the rest being talk page edits. This is in contravention to our [[Conservapedia:Guidelines#90/10 Rule|90/10 rule]] which we have enacted in order to combat [[talk pollution]]. I'm forbidding you from making any further edits to talk pages until you meet the demand of our rules. Failure to comply will result in a two week ban. You have been warned. - [[User:Markman|Markman]] 13:35, 3 March 2013 (EST)

:As far as I understand the site's laws, what is being counted are individual talk edits made by the user rather than the number of debates he participates. The rule is meant to maximize actual article editing and this one of the reasons I like this encyclopedia over other internet encyclopedias.
:Regarding my use of sheep over lamb, I prefer it because I think that when one engages in translation he should be as literal as possible. The word which was translated by me into sheep (and to lamb by the KJV) was "keves" (כבש). Keves does not denote any age and can refer to all sheep regardless of whether or not they're mature. Since those verses didn't use the Hebrew word for lamb ("tale" טלה) I decided to translate it into sheep. When choosing between lamb or sheep one must consult the original text. For example, when young sheep are mentioned in 1 Samuel, they should be referred to as lamb in the translation, since Samuel does use the word "tale". Sorry for not replying to it earlier, I didn't even see that you asked me about it at any point. - [[User:Markman|Markman]] 17:25, 3 March 2013 (EST)
