Date of First Vision

Early Life of Joseph Smith, Jr

I have twice reverted a specific date for the first vision from a anon using an AOL IP. Left them the following message.

Thanks for the recent edits on this article, but please keep in mind that Joseph Smith gave several accounts of the first vision during his lifetime, with relatively minor variations. One of these accounts was adopted as the official version by the largest LDS schism, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Since the LDS project group here tries to present a balanced view of all offshoots of Mormonism, as well as presenting opposing points of view (via Wikipedia's NPOV policy), articles about Mormonism have to be carefully written to incorporate as many viewpoints as possible. As there is some minor disagreement on the actual date of the first vision, a less than precise date has been selected for this article. We encourage people interested in LDS/Mormon issues to become involved in our project group. Please see: Wikipedia:WikiProject Latter Day Saint movement Hope to work with you soon.
