Catholic theology has an RfC
Catholic theology, which is within the scope of this WikiProject, has an RfC for value. A discussion is taking place. If you would like to participate in the discussion, you are invited to add your comments on the discussion page. Thank you. Jeaucques Quœure (talk) 03:39, 12 October 2024 (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.)

- UPDATE: There's now an ANI open on the user in question, recommending a topic ban, in case anyone wants to weigh in: Misplaced Pages:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#AndriesvN_and_Christian_theology_articles

- UPDATE: The user in question has been indef blocked as of today for being WP:NOTHERE. However, their numerous edits remain in need of review. See Special:Contributions/AndriesvN for a sense of what pages need work. It's a pretty hefty task. Thanks for any help! -HieronymusNatalis (talk) 17:12, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
Future of this WikiProject
Off the project, a few editors have asked me about whether WikiProject Catholicism 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! ~ Pbritti (talk) 16:04, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
- Sorry to say Pbritti, but I like Discord... ~Darth Stabro 20:10, 3 November 2024 (UTC)

Inboxes for Pope Saints
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? Also, all of the information in the saint infobox tends to be duplicated in the sainthood section of the Christian leader infobox – is it not therefore redundant to use both infoboxes within an article? Vesuvio14 (talk) 00:03, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, we should only have one per article, but people love adding them. Johnbod (talk) 02:33, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
- There should only be one infobox, probably the Christian Leader one for more modern popes at very least; and then using the module attribute to add in the relevant saint sections if any other things are needed. ~Darth Stabro 13:47, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

Avignon Papacy
If I understand it correctly, the Avignon Papacy is about a line of popes before the Western Schism. If so? I had to de-link at pages of anti-popes during the schism. GoodDay (talk) 21:06, 23 December 2024 (UTC)
- No, you don't understand it correctly. Have you tried reading the first lines of those articles? Johnbod (talk) 21:48, 23 December 2024 (UTC)
- The infobox says "1309–1376", with Gregory XI listed as the last pope, which indicates before the Western Schism. Therefore the intro is inconsistent, if the 1378–1417 Schism era is included. To avoid the inconsistencies, the Avignon Papacy page should be split into two pages - Avignon Papacy 1309–1376 & Avignon Papacy 1378–1417. At the very least, the schism info is misplaced.

Jimmy Wales has addressed the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences back in 2012
While searching in the Internet Artchive to improve this WP article, I sumbled upon this 2012 CNS article which tells how Jimmy Wales gave an address at the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences where he had been invited.
I was unaware of it, and I found this information funny, so I am relaying it to you here. Veverve (talk) 14:20, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
