Ecclesiastical provinces

[edit]

I noticed that you have removed categories from dioceses showing that they are part of an eccesiatical province. This is true. Please restore all those changes! Thanks. Student7 (talk) 21:20, 6 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I can understand over-categorization. It has gone the other way too, lately. This is, it is not a requirement that a member of a category cannot be a member of a higher category. But it is neater, I suppose. Student7 (talk) 12:40, 7 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Poland activity check

[edit]

We are doing another activity check on members of Wikipedia:WikiProject Poland. I've noticed that you have not been active in the Poland-related articles in the past few months (we define it as doing 10 or more Poland-related edits per month in the last three months period), and as such I took the liberty to adjust your position in our Participants list from active to semi-active. Please note that this is just a method of keeping track of how many editors are currently active on Poland-related topics. Feel free to move yourself back if you disagree with this, and/or comment on WT:POLAND. In case you are not aware of that, our project has many active discussions on its talk page, we also list Poland-related article news (hee), Poland-related new articles for review (hee), Poland-related articles in need of cleanup (here), a listing of most popula Poland-related articles (here), a portal (here), and other tools. If the activity incrases, we would like to implement other tools, such as project A-class reviews and a newsletter. We are looking forward to seeing you around more often! Take care, --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 21:30, 17 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

CSD?

[edit]

I'm not following the reason for the CSD on St. Adalbert Parish, Providence. What am I missing?--SPhilbrickT 14:06, 21 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This also applies to other requests, such as St. Michael the Archangel Parish, Bridgeport--SPhilbrickT 14:22, 21 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I temporarily removed the requests, if I can understand the rationale, I'll carry out the deletion.--SPhilbrickT 14:28, 21 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I viewed it as a deliberate redirect, so that if someone was looking for St. Adalbert's Parish (Providence, Rhode Island), and starting typing in the search screen, and entered "St. Adalbert's Parish, Prov..." they would see the right one. I still think that is a valid use for a redirect, but I'll delete --SPhilbrickT 16:14, 21 January 2011 (UTC)both.[reply]

sort order

[edit]

It was my understanding that the consensus here was that the sort order was to be St. Mary Church (theCity, Connecticut). That is what I am doing now. Am I WRONG in my understanding?Lukascb (talk) 23:00, 21 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

AFD of bridgeport diocese church/parish articles

[edit]

You may be interested in this AFD (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/St. Mark Church (Stratford, Connecticut)) in case you haven't noticed it yet. While the majority seem to be non-notable, a significant number appear to be notable in their own right. As you seem more familiar with churches than I am, your opinion at the AFD about sortig out what should and should not be deleted is appreciated. Thanks. --Polaron | Talk 17:56, 23 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Also, can you please explain the whole "this is a church not a parish" edits you've been making? I'm not sure what you're getting at. Thanks, Markvs88 (talk) 00:23, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Added image of St. Stanislaus, Bristol to your article

[edit]

Also I am to be in touch with people at the church who know the name of the architect. My belief is that knowing this will help the present condition of this article.

I also have pictures of Sacred Heart and Holy Cross in New Britain. I will be adding them to the commons and will then include them in your articles, which I believe to exist.

Beyond that I have enough information on the architect of Sacred Heart to create a new article on him. This will provide a meaningful liks to your article.Lukascb (talk) 00:27, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

pls dont move articles under AFD

[edit]

Please don't move articles in the big Connecticut AFD, while they are under AFD. You moved St. Mary of Czestochowa Parish, Middletown to that name, adding Middletown. I happen to disagree whether that is the correct name to use, assuming the article is kept, because it looks like it could be in Middletown, Pennsylvania or in another state, or that "Middletown" might not be a town. The correct name in the end might be "St. Mary of Czestochowa Church (Middletown, Connecticut)" using church rather than parish and using (City, State). Please participate in naming subsection of the AFD discussion. And please agree not to make moves of items under AFD. It is confusing and there is not agreement about what names to use, obviously. Your move was a contested move; it is not uncontested. --doncram 11:59, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This information may be of some help to you

[edit]

I have been in contact with the pastor of St. Stanislaus Church in Bristol CT. He has consulted the original plans of the church and informs me that the original architect for the church built in the 1956 time frame was James J. O'Shaughnessy who worked from offices in Boston at 80 Boylston Street. That building is referred to locally as the Little Building.

I have heard of O'Shaunessy. He was not, as best I know, one of the major architects of Boston area churches. But he did design St. Joseph Church, Salem MA for a French congregation in 1948. This church is rather unlike the Bristol building. Its style seems to be referred to as International Style. St. Joseph is in the news a lot these days because there are forces in Salem who are attempting to demolish the building while others believe that it has great aesthetic significance.

Certainly O'Shaunessy's work seems very competent and my belief is that there might be quite a bit more by him in greater Boston, if not elsewhere. There are some additional places I can look at locally where I may be able to get more details on him.

I'm passing this information to you here because I have no way to cite the information that I've found on this church. It seems like it would be a worthy fact to be included in your wiki page and I leave it to you as to what you may want to do with it, if anything.

By the way I have mentioned your wikipedia entry to the pastor and he is interested in finding a way for his congregation to add their own contributions to your effort.Lukascb (talk) 16:52, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Autopatrolled

[edit]

Hello, this is just to let you know that I have granted you the "autopatrolled" permission. This won't affect your editing, it just automatically marks any page you create as patrolled, benefiting new page patrollers. Please remember:

  • This permission does not give you any special status or authority
  • Submission of inappropriate material may lead to its removal
  • You may wish to display the {{Autopatrolled}} top icon and/or the {{User wikipedia/autopatrolled}} userbox on your user page
  • If, for any reason, you decide you do not want the permission, let me know and I can remove it
If you have any questions about the permission, don't hesitate to ask. Otherwise, happy editing! Acalamari 21:32, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

do not remove AFD notice

[edit]

Do not unilaterally remove an article's AFD notice, as you did with St. Mary of Czestochowa Parish, Middletown. There is an ongoing AFD, which you are aware of and participating in.

If you repeat such disruptive actions i will seek to have you blocked from editing in Wikipedia, by escalating blocks until you are entirely banned. --doncram 10:34, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You also removed AFD notices in [this edit for St. Joseph Parish, Rockville] and at St. Stanislaus Parish article, which i have restored. Your removing AFD tag prevents readers from knowing that the article is likely to be deleted. It does not stop the AFD process. There is explicit notice that the AFD notice should not be removed until the issue is resolved. --doncram 11:19, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Please consider Wikipedia:Civility. I have concerns about process, but I want to see any discussions about process remain calm and deliberative. Requests to edit or not edit in a particular way are usually inappropriate. Removal of AfD notices is decided by a particular process. Please point to the process when discussing particular edits. --DThomsen8 (talk) 13:57, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Note - WlaKom's first language is Polish, and he may seem more terse than he intends. Best, Markvs88 (talk) 15:23, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for that information. --DThomsen8 (talk) 17:27, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

On that AfD page, you said that the AfD did not follow proper procedure. In fact, however, en.wikipedia procedure allows for a "bundled" discussion of possible deletion of multiple articles. See WP:BUNDLE for a description of the procedure. I encouraged Doncram to treat these articles as a group because of his assertion that the problems with the first article also existed in numerous other articles. Ideally, the discussion of this group can lead to a generic determination of criteria for deciding which churches/parishes should be documented in individual articles.

You have also said that the Polish wikipedia considers all Roman Catholic churches/parishes to be eligible for individual articles. I don't know how that works, but I do know that English Wikipedia does not have that same guideline or policy. Instead, in EN each article topic must be judged according to the general notability criteria and, in the case of churches/parishes, the specific notability criteria for organizations. As an American, I will comment that in view of the religious diversity of the United States and the very large number of individual churches here, it would be totally impractical to maintain an article about every church of any denomination. (For example, the city where I live has only about 27,000 people, but there are approximately 50 individual churches. Most of these are not notable by our criteria, so they will never have articles.) --Orlady (talk) 18:14, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/St. Mark Church (Stratford, Connecticut) - One list needed

[edit]

Please note my request, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/St. Mark Church (Stratford, Connecticut)#One list needed and comment or volunteer to make a list. --DThomsen8 (talk) 13:59, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

National parishes

[edit]

The category is for national parishes, not national churches as I stated. Category:National churches stands alone and unrelated, and I have not added any of its contents to Category:National parishes. I am assembling an article on the 19th century debate over Americanization, which piqued my interest in the subject; I noticed there was no category for ethnic parishes, even though WP has dozens of articles about them. so I created it. To my knowledge, the concept of the national parish is a feature of western Catholicism, but if necessary we can always have the category renamed.- choster (talk) 12:37, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article St. Mary of Czestochowa Parish (Middletown, Connecticut) is being discussed concerning whether it is suitable for inclusion as an article according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/St. Mary of Czestochowa Parish (Middletown, Connecticut) (2nd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. doncram 06:17, 31 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Holy Rosary

[edit]

I'm well aware of the distinction; however, we typically cover churches and parishes together in the same article, so this is a likely redirect. Nyttend (talk) 17:44, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"We" is the English Wikipedia aside from you. Look at the way that church buildings and parishes are categorised everywhere that you've not edited. Are you going to propose an article on the parish that meets at St. Patrick's Cathedral as well as an article on the cathedral itself? Don't cite your own edits as consensus when everybody else follows a different path. Nyttend (talk) 17:58, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
For example, look at Mount St. Peter Church — aside from being GA-quality, this is a typical church article. You'll notice that it covers both the parish and the building within which Mass is celebrated. Separate articles are not needed, and nor are separate categories. Nyttend (talk) 18:04, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I've already provided you with a sample link. Aside from your own creations, English Wikipedia articles do not cover parishes and church buildings in separate articles. Nyttend (talk) 18:20, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There's a question for you...

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

[edit]

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:35, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Monitor. WikiProject Poland Newsletter: Issue 1 (April 2011)

[edit]
WikiProject Poland Newsletter • April 2011
For our freedom and yours

Welcome to our first issue of WikiProject Poland newsletter, the Monitor (named after the first Polish newspaper).

Our Project has been operational since 1 June, 2005, and also serves as the Poland-related Wikipedia notice board. I highly recommend watchlisting the Wikipedia:WikiProject Poland page, so you can be aware of the ongoing discussions. We hope you will join us in them, if you haven't done so already! Unlike many other WikiProjects, we are quite active; in this year alone about 40 threads have been started on our discussion page, and we do a pretty good job at answering all issues raised.

In addition to a lively encyclopedic, Poland-related, English-language discussion forum, we have numerous useful tools that can be of use to you - and that you could help us maintain and develop:

This is not all; on our page you can find a list of useful templates (including userboxes), awards and other tools!

With all that said, how about you join our discussions at WT:POLAND? Surely, there must be something you could help others with, or perhaps you are in need of assistance yourself?

You have received this newsletter because you are listed as a [member link] at WikiProject Poland. • Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 21:11, 25 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
