The wikipedia article on Amoris Laetitia (https://en.wikipedia.org/Amoris_laetitia) is highly biased in favor of critics of the document. Criticisms of the document are given a prominent place and in fact take up more of the article than the actual content of Amoris Laetitia. Most of the links are to publications that are critical of AL (NCRegister, EWTN's "World Over").


== Request for help: articles related to Trinity / Arianism / Nicaea need attention ==
I think this should be a high priority for WikiProject Catholicism because it strikes at the very unity of our Church. I recommend WikiProject Catholicism take control of the article on Amoris Laetitia, rewrite it to focus on the actual content of the document, and leave the controversy for another article.


Hello! Over the past two years, a vast number of articles related to the Trinity, the Arian controversy, and 4th century Church history have been overhauled and/or bloated with material of a decidedly pro-Arian/anti-Trinitarian slant, including ], ], and dozens more. The main user behind this transformation is ], an extremely prolific Arian apologist who runs the blog , one of whose stated purposes is to "oppose the Trinity doctrine." See his ] for a sense of their scope and character.
Happy to discuss.


While the user in question often adds serious content and cites legitimate scholarly works, it's consistently written in a polemical tone that fails to meet Misplaced Pages's ] principle, and often is improperly cited and/or mixed with ] from his blog. He's also shown himself averse to constructive criticism, as seen from his ].


While I've attempted to fix some of the more egregious revisions (e.g. to ]), as a Misplaced Pages rookie and full-time theology student I lack the bandwidth to revise and factcheck all the articles in question, and for this reason I'm appealing for your help, especially those of you who have background in theology/Church history. Your assistance with reviewing, revising and factchecking these articles is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Off the project, a few editors have asked me about whether ] is still a salient force on the project, most recently yesterday. While the WikiProject's members are definitely active and contributing new articles and content at a prodigious rate, it might be time for us to consider a more organized approach. I'm not super keen on things like Discord, but that could be an option to coordinate efforts. If anyone else has thoughts, please let me know! ~ ] (]) 16:04, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
Misplaced Pages has many thousands of wikilinks which point to ] pages. It would be useful to readers if these links directed them to the specific pages of interest, rather than making them search through a list. Members of ] have been working on this and the total number is now below 20,000 for the first time. Some of these links require specialist knowledge of the topics concerned and therefore it would be great if you could help in your area of expertise.

For a number of Popes who have been canonised since their deaths (as well as other canonised clergy), there seems to be a disparity between the use of the Saint infobox and the Christian Leader infobox: some place the saint infobox at the top of the article, directly after the Christian leader infobox; others place the saint infobox under the canonisation/veneration section of the article. Is there any established consensus on which is best here?

I propose to create a Misplaced Pages page "Sister (religious)" in respect for the large number of sisters who do not consider their vocation as monastic, as implied by the title "nun", at least in the United States.

The Sister article may be brief and direct readers to the article ], but it would show respect for the important distinction between nuns and sisters in the United States today.

*Neither "nun" nor "sister" are strictly technical terms (http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/11164a.htm), so creating an article discussing one but not the other may be an artificial distinction. The distinction in degree of religious observation is a ancientand a worldwide phenomenon (not just the United States - the Sisters of Charity in Calcutta, for example), so a global article for "Catholic women religious" or "Catholic sisters and nuns", breaking out some of the more of the technical content from the "Nun" article, may be appropriate. –]<sup>⋉]</sup> 11:44, 7 February 2018 (UTC)
:*Would there be any support for changing the name of the "nun" page to "Sisters and nuns" and explaining in the introductory section the distinction and usage, and where to find the specifically sister section below? Alternately, would the notability you mention not come from simply the widespread references to "sisters" (for religious sisters) in the 20th century? Also, could you tell me how someone made ] redirect to ]; as with most guideline pages I find this one overwhelming, and would appreciate simply a reference to some examples! ] (]) 15:01, 16 February 2018 (UTC)

Request for help: articles related to Trinity / Arianism / Nicaea need attention

Hello! Over the past two years, a vast number of articles related to the Trinity, the Arian controversy, and 4th century Church history have been overhauled and/or bloated with material of a decidedly pro-Arian/anti-Trinitarian slant, including Homoousion, Arian controversy, and dozens more. The main user behind this transformation is AndriesvN, an extremely prolific Arian apologist who runs the blog revelationbyjesuschrist.com, one of whose stated purposes is to "oppose the Trinity doctrine." See his contributions for a sense of their scope and character.

While the user in question often adds serious content and cites legitimate scholarly works, it's consistently written in a polemical tone that fails to meet Misplaced Pages's Neutral POV principle, and often is improperly cited and/or mixed with original research from his blog. He's also shown himself averse to constructive criticism, as seen from his talk page.

While I've attempted to fix some of the more egregious revisions (e.g. to Athanasius of Alexandria), as a Misplaced Pages rookie and full-time theology student I lack the bandwidth to revise and factcheck all the articles in question, and for this reason I'm appealing for your help, especially those of you who have background in theology/Church history. Your assistance with reviewing, revising and factchecking these articles is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

(And of course, feel free to get any other community involved if you think they could help. I'm about to ask WikiProject Eastern Orthodoxy.)
