Seventh-day Adventists Tagging

Many of the resources that will become available in a Seventh-day Adventists group will have some [or a lot] of quotes from Ellen White.

It would be nice if a TAG on any of those quotes would flag the original source of that quote. [and everywhere else it is used] 

Many of the proposed resources do reference somewhere that the quote is found [but not all and often not the original source [Adventist Home is often quoted but AH is not a source document] ]

    Good  idea David. Martin has said that this linking will be something that he will be pushing.

    Mission: To serve God as He desires.

    Good suggestion, David. I believe Martin already has this on his radar, but I'll pass it along just in case!

    Thank you, David, Lynden and Sherri. I've been working on getting Ellen White's writings tagged and re-indexed. Just yesterday I brought it up in several meetings and phone calls. It's a complex process and will take some time but will remain a top priority for me.

    Another thing I was working on (even before coming to work this morning) is to bring the world of our pioneers into the Logos ecosystem. See the new thread I'm starting.

    For Example:

    "Can All Be Prophets?" Chapter 3 page 1
    Quotes "Counsels to Writers and Editors", pp. 33, 34

    "Counsels to Writers and Editors", pp. 33, 34 CW 34.1
    Quotes "Review and Herald", March 25, 1890

    Where I found the quote at:
    RH, March 25, 1890 par. 4
