Luther
"Martin Luther, originally an Augustinian friar, initiated the Protestant Reformation against the Catholic Church in 1517." - this is totally untrue. Martin Luther, and many of the Protestant Reformers, never intended the Reformation to be a movement "against" the Catholic Church. Many of them wanted an internal reform, including Luther. This should be corrected to a more neutral sentence.
Original research in "Name" section
There are several issues with the final paragraph of the "Catholic Church#Name" section:
The final paragraph references exclusively primary sources, with no sources providing scholarly commentary on the significant of the use of "Catholic Church". More commentary is needed from reliable sources to describe why "(Holy) Roman Church" is used at least 25 times in the documents of Trent, while "Catholic Church" is used 34 times. Or why Vatican I uses "Roman Church" 5 times compared to "Catholic Church" 11 times. The use of primary sources can only be used to assert the trivial fact that the words "Catholic Church" were used in various documents of the three councils and other Papal bulls. Additional sources would be required to assert any significance of this usage in the primary sources.
Latin Church is the particular church of Latin rite. However to say other Rites such as Alexandrian, Byzantine, East Syriac, and West Syriac to be Roman is not proper word use. Roman Catholic is most appropriate when referencing Latin Church not Catholic Church. This article is an explanation that may clear confusion[1]On more information on the Latin particular church look at this article [2]. Also, if there is anymore confusion on nomenclature, read this article [3] I hope for a friendly exchange. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Manabimasu (talk • contribs) 03:58, 22 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Redirects here are under attack by user:Manabimasu. See his recent edits. Please, help. Hyperbolick (talk) 01:50, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
I want to confirm. That I did Change the redirects to the disambiguation page. I would like to know what rules I broke besides being reckless. I only reverted two or three times. I would like a discussion. I want to be civil. So for every page with “Roman” I changed to Roman Catholic disambiguation. I won’t change it back because I have bias. I want to know the opinions of editors. Also, to hyperbolick, Thanks for informing of my reckless edits. I need attention towards the discussion.Manabimasu (talk) 01:57, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, Can you point out my error? Please quote the violation. I would welcome the opportunity to learn. Also, I would like to learn how to achieve a consensus. To add in Edit_requests#Planning_a_request there is a statement “Uncontroversial changes don't require sourcing, such as correcting typographical errors or disambiguating links. ” I thought I could redirect to a disambiguation page.Manabimasu (talk) 02:09, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I feel that this (mass) change is against long-standing consensus — redirecting to the main article as opposed to the dab page. I, therefore, have rollbacked all those changes. El_C02:29, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Agree with El_C. These redirects have been around for a very long time. Not as if all of Wikipedia was too dumb to realize where they should point this whole time. Hyperbolick (talk) 03:00, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".
The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.
