Correct. Until we get further, or new, direction we will comply with the do not post the number instruction.garystroble wrote: ↑Mon Feb 06, 2023 5:40 pmSo it's all right to post a link with the phone number but not the phone number itself. Is that correct?

Re: Requesting a custom map
I personally wouldn't post a link to some random page with the number. But right now the wiki page is the only place that I know of where the number is listed. If we don't link to that page then we have no way of helping people contact the GSD. If CHQ doesn't want the number publicly available they need to provide a calling-protected location again.russellhltn wrote: ↑Mon Feb 06, 2023 11:36 pmWe haven't been told not to.garystroble wrote: ↑Mon Feb 06, 2023 5:40 pm So it's all right to post a link with the phone number but not the phone number itself.

However, for practical reasons, I think linking is better than posting a number directly because it has regional specific numbers and (hopefully) it will be updated with any changes which will hopefully make it less likely that any given post has stale information.
Late addition:
After some additional searching I found that the following URL doesn't redirect to the wiki but it isn't calling-protected either: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/too ... t?lang=eng
The number is also available from the Contact Us menu option in LCR which is calling protected.
I'm happy to limit where I link to (and have someone edit previous posts) but right now it looks like the number is publicly available. In fact, a google search for "Church of Jesus Christ Global Service Department" brings up this link as the first item and the wiki page as the second.
