Sortable Indices
Would there be merit in converting the category indices (such as this one) to using the honor_entry template as opposed to correcting the stage info here?
- Yes please. Love the sortable lists too, but with three sections on this page not sure how that works. JadeDragon (talk) 07:10, 22 October 2014 (EDT)
- "which are distributed outside of North America." Do you mean NAD or the continent? Remember that Mexico is part of North America geographically, but of the Interamerican Division. Is ACS now offered in Canada? Or still only ADRA? While official documents might state NAD is using ACS, reality might be very different. -- w126jep (talk) 08:41, 22 October 2014 (EDT)

Not sure where to put this in. This is a Creditable 2hr Continuing Education Value Community Services course on Adventist Learning Community. Following the course handles almost all the questions in the Adventist Community Services Honours. It has resources and it is very well done.

Mix ACS into Outreach honors
At the last video/teleconference for the NAD AY Honors Committee, it was requested that that ACS honors NOT be separated into their own table, but that they should be included and only considered as part of the Spiritual Development, Outreach, & Heritage category. The reasoning was that there are no official "church department AY honors". For example, the Stewardship honor was not made by or for the Stewardship Department, the Teaching honor was not made by or for the Education Department, the Family Life honor was not made by or for the Family Ministries Department, etc. The ACS honors should be seen as community service honors and the NAD happens to also have a department for community services; not that they are linked. ADRA is not NAD so that has no bearing. --w126jep (talk) 14:00, 10 October 2018 (EDT)
