Language question

On the front page of en.wikipedia currently is a picture which has a sentence in it. "The most widely recognized version of the psalm in English today (shown here) is undoubtedly the one drawn from the King James Bible.". The language used there makes it seem as if it's OR, "undoubtedly the one drawn from the King James Bible" isn't the same as "is drawn from the King James Bible". Is OR accepted in some cases as long as it's cited as such? Does it violate NOR? How does language work on Wikipedia?

- You've made a good point. I've had a look at the Psalm 23 article, and there's no reliable source there to back up this claim. I'll post at Wikipedia talk:Main Page#Errors in today's or tomorrow's featured picture. -- John of Reading (talk) 09:22, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
- I've actually posted at Template talk:POTD protected/2012-01-17, which seems to be the correct place as far as I can tell. -- John of Reading (talk) 09:36, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks for the response and post. How did you find the template/correct place to post if you don't mind me asking. Wiki seems to be fairly chaotic and all over the place to the uninformed. Chrissd21 (talk) 11:06, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
- I've been to Talk:Main page before, where there is a banner at the top saying what to post where. Then, down at Talk:Main page#Errors in today's or tomorrow's featured picture, there's a note asking that today's page should be corrected first. So I posted there - and so far, no-one has noticed. Ah well. -- John of Reading (talk) 11:23, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
