Welcome to the WikiProject Catholicism 101![edit]

Hello, Slugger O'Toole/Archive 1, and welcome to the Wikiproject:Catholicism 101! Thank you for your generous offer to help contribute. I'm sure your input will be much appreciated. I hope you enjoy contributing here and being a Catholic Project Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to discuss anything on the project Talk page, or to leave a message on my own talk page. Please sign all your comments, and be bold with your edits. Again, welcome, and God Bless! -- MamaGeek TALK CONTRIB 13:56, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

CST[edit]

I think that between us we should be able to significantly clean up/improve this page, but we need to agree on somekinda overall strategy. I think that the fundamentals contribution represented a serious improvement, by helping to draw all the elements together, and making it clear how the RCC understands and builds its ST. Without it the whole article loooks like a fairly arbitary set of rules and conditions. Lets talk about it on the Talk page a bit before we get into any more editing.

KOC Note[edit]

Thanks for the heads up on the Knights of Columbus article... I'd be happy to help out, but I'm not sure what to do. Is there anything specific I can do to help? Clint 01:29, 10 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Pope Pius XII[edit]

Thanks for your comments. One question: do you remember the source for the fact that Pius distributed money to people when Rome got bombed? This was removed a long time ago by another user because there was no source provided. If there is a source, we also need a date for when this happened. Also some context. Pius performed many acts of charity during the war, some notable, some not. If he distributed a lot of money though, this seems notable. savidan^{(talk) (e@)} 23:57, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think you'll find that I addressed all of your comments with the following exceptions: I really don't know how to follow up on this Knights of Columbus video and I don't have a book on me right now that talks about Pius's relationship with Japan. I'll see what I can do on these. As for Dalin's book, it was cited already, but I added a sentence linking to it. savidan^{(talk) (e@)} 03:31, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Vote in progress to move Counter-Reformation to Catholic Reformation[edit]

This move makes sense because Counter-Reformation implies that that the movement was against reform. Rather as a reform movement within the Catholic Church, it is most precisely known as the Catholic Reformation. This is now the more favored term in academic theological circles.

Please stop by talk:Counter-Reformation for the vote. Thanks, --Vaquero100 19:33, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

hi[edit]

But as I pointed out, I'm a heathen, and worse, an evil homosexual who'll burn in hell for ever if your church has its way. I'm just not interested in the topic, and I'm offended by the way the church has focused on people's genitals for the past century, and killed thousands (millions?) of African women because of the ban on condoms.

Having said that, I want your article to be in the best prose possible. Surely there are WPians who are sympathetic to the cause ... Have you tried researching the categories of WPians? What about other catholic-oriented articles—look at the history for each, and find good copy-editors. This would be an investment in your future WP contributions, too.

AndyZ may be willing. Fg2 is good. So is Ubercryxic. But these people may not appreciate my recommendation, and may have the same qualms as I do. Good luck. Tony 17:04, 17 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

KofC[edit]

Hello, the KofC article is in very good shape and there's not too much copy editing to do. I worked on the intro so as to make it more readable, and I think it's stronger now. I did delet "family" and I apologise if that needs to be in there, though I think "fraternal service organization" covers it and the family aspect becomes apparent later in the article. Let me know if you have any questions regarding that. Murcielago 14:50, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Catholic devotions[edit]

Hey Briancua.

I just started the Catholic devotions article. It's not much yet, but it is a start. Thanks for your interest. --Vaquero100 17:18, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Categories in userspace[edit]

Hi! I noticed that in your scratchpad / draft / alternative article User:Briancua/list you have the categories still activated, so it's showing up in Category:Animals and a few others. Could I suggest that you deactivate them (by putting a colon before 'Category' in the link) until such time as the article is in the mainspace rather than the userspace? (As per WP:CG, "If you copy an article to your user namespace (for example, as a temporary draft or in response to an edit war) you should decategorize it".) Cheers, Ziggurat 01:25, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Copyrigh Violation!??! I am the one who wrote it all...[edit]

Regarding: Doug Obey on Wikipedia

Why on earth would it be a copyright violation if I am the one who wrote it??

I created the website (And wrote ALL of the content within it... )therefore I have every right to copy my own creations and use them as such on Wikipedia.

Please remove the copyright violation. I GIVE PERMISSION! (otherwise I wouldn't have posted it!)

Thank you,

Jason Stadtlander Stadtlander Designs (If you have any doubts, look at the bottom of the website... it says "STADTLANDER DESIGNS" at the bottom)

Theology of the Body[edit]

Thanks for the Theology of the Body section on the CC page, Brian. We desperately need a comprehensive approach to this teaching on WP. Maybe you or I should propose this on the collaboration page. Vaquero100 02:52, 2 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I just saw that and voted in support of your nomination. Good going, Brian. Vaquero100 02:59, 2 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Pope John Paul the Great[edit]

Why did you remove every instance of Pope John Paul the Great? --Briancua 23:32, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Because it's a redirect to the actual article, and there's no consensus in the world at large that this should be his title. You'll notice that I didn't touch the discussion of the subject in the article, since it was well-cited, and that I didn't mess with people's sandboxes. --Sar e kOfVulcan 00:10, 12 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Lies My Teacher Told Me[edit]

How was the see also section to A People's History of the United States irrelevant? Like Lies, it focuses on parts of American history that aren't always talked about in your everyday classroom. Also, see [[Textbook#High_school|here]. Amazon.com's page for Lies also includes People's History in the "Customers who bought this item also bought" section. [1] It also says that 56% of people who get Lies also buy People's History. AK Press's page for Lies says "File alongside Zinn's People's History Of The United States". [2]. This page has People's History listed as a related book. Here are a bunch of comments people have made about Lies, and a few of them also mention People's History. I'm not the only one who thinks they are relevant to one another. I'm going to put it back in, but if you want to take it out again, feel free to mention it on the article's talk page (I have it watched). Thanks.

link to Iranian[edit]

Hello, when you want to link to the article about something Iranian, please do not link to Iranian, as that is a disambiguation page (which nothing should be linked to). Instead link to the one of the options found on that page such as Iranian people, or Iran, by writing out [[Iranian people|Iran]] or [[Iran|Iranian]].

Weld Family[edit]

Thank you for correcting that point of information in my article on The Welds. I misunderstood the info in the William Weld article. I edited the later so others won't make the same error.

I see you have done work on several articles re: Greater Boston. I've been contributing in this area as well. You can see a list of my original articles on my user page. Not only might some of them be of interest to you, they are all very new and may not have been proof read by anyone other than me. It would be nice to have someone savvy about Boston and Norfolk County look at them. Happy Holidays. ◄HouseOfScandal ►08:26, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Society in Dedham for Apprehending Horse Thieves[edit]

This article has been nominated for deletion through the AfD process. Rklawton 16:14, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, here are some of my concerns about the article on pornography addiction.[edit]

Yes... i hated to use James Dobsons views as an attack, and I know that i should not have. but the main problem is that there are NO I repeat NO counter claims in defense of pornography with a reputable source and easily verifiable claims. This ALONE on such a hotly debated (Though perhaps not quite as much nowadays as in the 90's) topic... is good standing to almost INSTANTLY slap a POV notification, as well as a weasel word template due to it only giving the reader (Whom as i've said in numerous other topics with matters similar to this) Might just be looking for answers, research, or an average teenager trying to see if looking at pornoraphy will send them to hell or not etc. etc.

So that's why I consider it important that at least an EQUAL amount of statements for both sides of this debate be placed INSIDE the article and be in a seperate section for each of them which is easily viewable. (Perhaps set up the article so it has general definition of addiction first, then general info on the debate, and then seperate sections for views FOR and AGAINST or vice versa of the existence and proliferation of pornography addiction which conform to ALL wikipedia standards.)

I think this should be a minimum and that the internet section should have extra details added, and the plethora of recovering from addiction links be shortened down to a few informational ones instead of five links leading to different pages on a single website.

I think this is quite reasonable and I hope that this can be met up with on your part

Image:John W. O'Reilly.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:John W. O'Reilly.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Fair use rationale for Image:KofC_WYD.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:KofC_WYD.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

I have conducted a reassessment of the above article as part of the GA Sweeps process. I have found some concerns which you can see at Talk:Catholic social teaching/GA1. I have placed the article on hold for seven days. Jezhotwells (talk) 21:46, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Alveda King.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Alveda King.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Andrewlp1991 (talk) 02:03, 30 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of The Catholic University of America and The Knights of Columbus for deletion[edit]

A discussion has begun about whether the article The Catholic University of America and The Knights of Columbus, which you created or to which you contributed, should be deleted. While contributions are welcome, an article may be deleted if it is inconsistent with Wikipedia policies and guidelines for inclusion, explained in the deletion policy.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Catholic University of America and The Knights of Columbus until a consensus is reached, and you are welcome to contribute to the discussion.

You may edit the article during the discussion, including to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. SarekOfVulcan (talk) 13:58, 23 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of John W. O'Reilly[edit]

The article John W. O'Reilly has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Nonnotable person

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
