WikiProject Anglicanism

A new WikiProject focussing on Anglicanism and the Anglican Communion has just been initiated: WikiProject Anglicanism. Our goal is to improve and expand Anglican-reltaed articles. If anyone (Anglican or non-Anglican) is interested, read over the project page and consider signing up. Cheers! Fishhead64 06:40, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Uniform format proposal

A proposal is being floated at the project page that there be a standard format for organising each article about national provinces of the Anglican Communion, including this one. Please consider participating in the straw vote and discussion. Cheers! Fishhead64 21:41, 10 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:Personal Ordinariate

Apart from the Traditional Anglican Communion, the article should really consider verifying whether groups within the Anglican Church of Australia have ever sought a similar canonical structure to the proposed personal ordinariates. ADM (talk) 05:16, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Could be expanded

This seems to be a rather dry outline of formal institutional history and current institutional structure. It would be nice to expand it with something on the social role of the church in Australian history, the apparent current declining membership trend, etc. AnonMoos (talk) 12:06, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Reason the church was started...

There should be some inclusion of the historical ROOTS of the church. Although the Anglicans have really tried a lot of public relations - including so far as CHANGING their name away from the "Church of England" to "Anglican" - the REASON why the whole church was started was not based on theological reasons - e.g. charismatic gifts (as for Pentecostals), to be able to dunk in water (as for Baptists), because of grace (for Lutherans) - but because King Henry the 8th wanted to SHAG his brother's wife, and the pope wouldn't let him. This is disgraceful! But no matter how much Anglicans want to distinguish their future, that is the reality and the truth, and MUST be included as a FACT of HISTORY. 110.33.120.196 (talk) 09:53, 26 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
