User talk:Shruggedbeware

February 2023

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to an article, CHRISTUS Trinity Mother Frances Health System. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. However, keep in mind that even on the talk page of an article, you should limit your discussion to improving the article. Article talk pages are not the place to discuss opinions of the subject of articles, nor are such pages a forum. Thank you. Zerbu ^💬 07:16, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I was just making a note on the page that such an organization did not appear to exist and the term "province" seemed a bit out of place within the context of the article. My note is an invitation for other would-be editors to jump in to clarify some terminology in order to improve the quality of the article. You don't even have a confirmed email for your user page and you're talking about "Wikipedia is" as if you speak on behalf of everyone on the site or the board of the foundation or something. Get off my page. Shruggedbeware (talk) 07:51, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I think the term "province" is appropriate in the context of the article. See the article Ecclesiastical province: "An ecclesiastical province is one of the basic forms of jurisdiction in Christian Churches with traditional hierarchical structure, including Western Christianity and Eastern Christianity. In general, an ecclesiastical province consists of several dioceses (or eparchies), one of them being the archdiocese (or archeparchy), headed by a metropolitan bishop or archbishop who has ecclesiastical jurisdiction over all other bishops of the province."

Zerbu may also have been troubled by your use of the <ref></ref> mechanism to add your inline comment to the article, since your comment is not a citation of a reliable source. A more usual way to add an inline comment would be to use the Clarify template, e.g.

In the early 1930s, the Sisters of The Holy Family of Nazareth came to Tyler, Texas from the Sacred Heart Province^{[clarification needed]}

If you hover your mouse pointer over "clarification needed", you see your comment. See Template:Clarify for the short story and Wikipedia:Please clarify for the long story on the Clarify template and its kin.

Best wishes,

Oh, I see. I was misusing the <ref> function. My mistake. I'll go back over my edits and fix that now. Thanks for pointing that out. Shruggedbeware (talk) 23:47, 1 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You could just revert the edit for a thing that doesn't exist without coming onto my talk page. Bye! Shruggedbeware (talk) 00:45, 4 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
