This is a list of proposed Seventh-day Adventist related Wikipedia articles. Before creating, check that the article does not already exist under a different title by searching Wikipedia. WikiProject Christianity has a brief and helpful list of steps in creating a new article. Almost everything here will belong in a subcategory of Category:Seventh-day Adventist Church. See also Category:Establishments by year and Category:Disestablishments by year.

If you're looking for something to do you could also add to a stub article, as found in Category:Seventh-day Adventist stubs.

General

[edit source]

Churches

[edit source]

Churches belong in Category:Seventh-day Adventist churches and in one of the subcategories of Category:Churches by country.

Education and schools

[edit source]

Schools belong in either Category:Secondary schools affiliated with the Seventh-day Adventist Church or Category:Universities and colleges affiliated with the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Also add them to an appropriate subcategory of Category:Schools by country. And also to WikiProject Schools (elementary and secondary schools) or WikiProject Universities.

Adventist hospitals

[edit source]

Hospitals belong in Category:Hospitals affiliated with the Seventh-day Adventist Church and one of the subcategories of Category:Hospitals by year of establishment and Category:Hospital buildings by year of completion. Add to WikiProject Hospitals and regional WikiProjects.

Adventist people

[edit source]

Individuals must be notable. The Seventh-day Adventist Periodical Index (SDAPI), particularly the Obituary Index (which catalogues notices published in Adventist periodicals), may provide a middle name for an individual, or birth/death dates. Additionally, add them to WikiProject Biography.

Be careful that the search criteria are not too specific. Surname+Firstname is usually fine, but please check! You might try just using the surname at first, and then seeing how specific you have to be by seeing how many entries match the person in mind. Keep the link tidy if possible, rather than merely copying the URL from the browser address bar – see examples above.
Also check to see if they are included in the Manuscript Collections at the Center for Adventist Research. The indices have brief biographies as well (at least the ones one user has seen).

Adventist theologians and preachers

[edit source]

These also generally belong in Category:Seventh-day Adventist theologians and Category:Seventh-day Adventist ministers.

Former Adventists

[edit source]

These belong in Category:Former Seventh-day Adventists. They may also belong in Category:Protestant theologians or similar.
