From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The prosposed guideline has been inactive and I do not want to make changes without consent. This is somewhat of a pet project to get together the Catholic Church’s perspective. I will try to make a proposal and receive input and present before the Wikipedia community.

These naming conventions regarding the Catholic Church is a collection of guidelines on how to name Wikipedia articles about the Catholic Church, as well as associated people and entities. It is offered as a central point of reference.

Background: failed 2017 naming convention proposal

[edit]

The background of the former draft was summerised as below, on the situation across Wikipedia with inexisting, centralised naming convention. Until a more accurate understanding is proposed, this is what is offered:

The article name Catholic Church was set in 2009. Branch theory-derived and theological neutrality-appealing WP:POV/WP:PRECISION (ambiguity) objections tend to be dismissed along WP:IDONTLIKEIT/WP:POINT/WP:FRINGE lines. However, what has nevertheless settled the WP:CONSENSUS since 2009 is interpretation of WP:COMMONNAME/WP:PRIMARYUSAGE; both echoing preeminent self-designation. Generic articles since followed suit per WP:CONSISTENCY until all generic Catholic Church-related content pertained in 2017 (notably excluding episcopal conferences, provinces, dioceses, and some independent organisations). A naming conventions mirroring this consistent, arguably de facto convention, was drafted here in September 2017 with background in User:Vaquero100/CC vs. RCC from 2006, in turn a mix of an essay and a naming convention proposal previously referred to in discussions. While in a drafted state, a formal admission proposal by voting was initiated by a user but failed after a few days 6 October 2017. It has since been renamed and maintained in a failed proposal state. Though, a follow-up discussion includes a derived Cuius regio, eius religio-styled convention. In 2018, a new proposal was drafted at Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Catholicism).

Working todards a new draft: Introduction

[edit]

After Wikipedia:Proposed naming conventions (Catholic Church) failed, discussion about it went on at 1) Wikipedia_talk:Proposed_naming_conventions_(Catholic_Church)#Cuius_regio.2C_eius_religio, and 2) User talk:andrewa/Roman or catholic#Possible new proposal name.

To refocus the discussion again, this naming convention draft article emerged as a centralized location where on the talk page there is room to discuss the possible revival or modification of a new proposal, suggestibly taking into account the former failed proposal.

Guidelines

[edit]

To be settled.

The universal Catholic Church

[edit]

Articles that apply to the Catholic Church in general should use the phrase "Catholic Church" or the adjective "Catholic". Such articles should be recognisable, natural, precise, concise, and consistent with other Catholic Church-related titles, and should reflect a neutral point of view. For example:

Catholicism

[edit]

To be settled.

Particular churches sui iuris

[edit]

To be settled.

Latin Church

[edit]

"Latin Church" should be used whenever possible to distinguish the individual particular churches. For example, "Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago" will become "Latin Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago" to distinguish for example "Syro-Malabar Catholic Eparchy of St.Thomas of Chicago" because both have overlapping
