I just organized this section, and moved your comment and my response concerning Dr. Peters' blog to a new section below, so that editors such as I can cite the discussion and its evidence, argument, and conclusion as a precedent for citation of such blog on other Catholic canon law pages in the future.

Dr. Edward N. Peters, J.D., J.C.D. blog as reliable source

In the Light of the Law—This is a blog, but the author is noted canonist Edward N. Peters and it should be suitable as a WP:RS. Elizium23 (talk)

I heartily concur with this assessment. I have thought this for a long time, but I didn't know if there was a policy to back this up, or any other editor opinions on the subject. I agree, that this blog should be an admitable source. It was even cited by The Associated Press as a substantive commentary on the reforms; this alone makes it a real source, and not just some private blog. And Dr. Peters has been published numerous times by established 3rd-party publishers within the field of canon law, and cited countless times by the broader media as an authority within the field of canon law. Pope Benedict XVI appointed him a Referendary (expert on canon law) to the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura; if the "Supreme Judge of the entire Catholic world" (cf. canon 1442) thinks that someone is an expert in his field, then in the words of another pope, "Who am I to judge?". His blog certainly meets WP:BLOGS. Canon Law Junkie §§§ Talk 09:12, 19 September 2015 (UTC)

No longer stub

I have tried to update the classification of the article, after responding to its stub status. If I have done this improperly please advise as to what I left out. Thanks! Jzsj (talk) 14:11, 15 July 2017 (UTC)

I think it's better to leave the assessment of an article to the experts. It's certainly not B-class. It's start-class at best: the coverage is very basic. And it's not high-importance. If you look at the Wikipedia:WikiProject Catholicism assessment page, you'll see that high importance is for things like Thomas Aquinas and College of Cardinals. The best thing in a case like this is just to remove the "stub" rating and leave a blank. Then it will go into an "unassessed" category and somebody will pick it up and rate it in due time. I've done that. 95.44.50.222 (talk) 08:08, 19 July 2017 (UTC)
