Joan Taylor's Blog Post
[edit]I am not quite sure if you are aware yet, but I have a message on the talk page for the page Massacre of the Innocents where I try to respond to some of your objections for inserting her blog as a source. I would greatly appreciate it if you respond.
I would also like to apologize for sometimes inserting faulty links, and I will do my best to do better from now on. Silverfish2024 (talk) 20:43, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- Excuse me, but I don't know what you're talking about. I'm sure you're wrong, because I'm interested in war issues. Gear495 (talk) 19:47, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Gear495: what are you responding to? ~ Pbritti (talk) 20:01, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
Hi Pbritti, after doing a bunch of article creation for the various National Eucharistic Congresses in the United States, we figured an overarching history article would be appropriate given that various developments over time—what started them in the first place, when laity were allowed, the post WWI and WWII hiatuses—rather than having those things buried in the articles. I started Draft:History of National Eucharistic Congresses in the United States but I think Maximilian775 thought just calling it National Eucharistic Congresses in the United States without the "History of" would be better; would love to hear your thoughts on the title and/or the article as a whole. ~Darth StabroTalk • Contribs 00:17, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
- That's a good question. I'm inclined towards Maximilian775's proposals for two reasons: brevity of length and broadness of scope. If you haven't consulted Wikipedia:Article titles yet, I'll run the proposals against the policy outlined there. ~ Pbritti (talk) 00:23, 1 November 2024 (UTC)

Hello! Regarding your revert: Eastern Orthodoxy encompasses the religion, doctrine, and traditions of the Eastern Orthodox Church. The Eastern Orthodox Church is the largest institution associated with Eastern Orthodoxy. Therefore, I believe it is more appropriate to link to the Eastern Orthodox Church in this context. Cuvaj (talk) 17:09, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
- Both the canonical Eastern Orthodox Church and the broader categorization of Eastern Orthodoxy qualify as the second-largest Christian tradition. Since Anglicanism is not a single denomination but rather a religious tradition encompassing dozens (if not hundreds) of denominations, Eastern Orthodoxy as a tradition is more appropriate. ~ Pbritti (talk) 17:14, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
- You would be correct if this were the lead of the Anglicanism article. However, this is specifically the Anglican Communion article, which addresses only the churches in full communion with the Archbishop of Canterbury, not all Anglican churches. Cuvaj (talk) 17:28, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
- Even within the Anglican Communion, there are separate denominations. However, given that it would be splitting hairs and you seem fairly certain that Eastern Orthodox Church is better, I won't get in the way of you restoring your preferred version. ~ Pbritti (talk) 18:35, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks! Regarding [1] and [2], they are now inconsistent with this redirect. Is that okay? Cuvaj (talk) 19:38, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
