Requesting that this navbox be converted to WP:HLIST. Changing to hlist does not affect the output, it just makes navboxes better for those who use screen readers. You can copy/paste the code below (which I've hatted because it is quite long). Thanks in advance, Jenks24 (talk) 12:51, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

[edit]The temple only includes a portion of our preceding Popes. There was a lo more as shown in the Catholic Encyclopedia online at http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/12272b.htm Please include all the Popes or none of them.

Hi, I request you to edit the list of Doctors of the Church in Template:Catholicism to add John of Avila and Hildegard of Bingen. I made a request in the talk page, but received no response.
I would like to suggest to remove the list of Doctors of the Church completely and embed it as:
|list6 = {{Churchdoctor|list only=true}}
so that it will be easier to add a Doctor of the Church when the list changes. I have already altered Template:Churchdoctor to be embeddable and embedded it in Template:Catholic saints. I have edited Template:Catholicism/sandbox for your convenience. Hope I make sense. If you need any clarifications, please do revert back. Thanks. --Jayarathina (talk) 07:30, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
- (end of moved thread)
- You didn't get a response because although you posted above (on 8 Oct), you didn't use
{{editprotected}}
, and I don't normally watch this page. However, these changes don't appear to be either uncontroversial improvements or supported by a consensus of editors, see WP:EDITREQ#General considerations. Has this been discussed elsewhere, perhaps at WT:CATHOLIC? --Redrose64 (talk) 09:46, 7 December 2012 (UTC)- Oops I didn't know that such long procedure was there to get an edit request for a protected template. I saw that you were the last one to have edited this page, so left you a message. Anyway as per your guidelines

I request
- To edit the list of Doctors of the Church to add John of Avila and Hildegard of Bingen
- Do this by embedding Template:Churchdoctor. That is to remove the list of Doctors of the Church completely and embed it as:
|list6 = {{Churchdoctor|list only=true}}
so that it will be easier to add a Doctor of the Church when the list changes by modifying just Template:Churchdoctor. I have made similar change at Template:Catholic saints. I have edited Template:Catholicism/sandbox to show how the changes would be affecting the template. As per WP:EDITREQ#General considerations:
- To keep this Template up-to-date the edit (1 - Adding the names) is necessary.
- This edit is necessary to maintain the template in order to add new Doctors of the church easily (2 - Embedding the template).
- I don't think this edit is controversial in anyway.

Agree . They need to be inserted. but an opinion of a priest or nun has to be taken.(Harishrawat11 (talk) 01:07, 8 December 2012 (UTC))
Agree . I don't have a problem with this, and don't see why it would be controversial. InfernoXV (talk) 05:44, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
Agree . Obvious, unless we have some new criteria, a doctor of the Church is a doctor of the Church when declared to be so by the Pope. However, I am not sure about embedding. Would it cause the Doctors of the Church template to need to be locked so as not to affect the Catholicism template? If so, don't embed. >> Jesus Loves You! M.P.Schneider,LC (parlemus • feci) 10:24, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
Comment: I think that Template:Churchdoctor has to be at-least semi protected. Because it is embedded in other templates too. But even if it is fully protected, it won't be a problem, as we are not going to edit it very often. (Penultimate declaration of doctors of the church was 15 years back) --Jayarathina (talk) 04:24, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
Thanks very much for that; so Done. --Redrose64 (talk) 11:02, 9 December 2012 (UTC)

Pope Benedict 16th is needed for preceding popes.
SHZ (talk) 22:51, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
Not done for now: It occurs to me that several other changes are needed, and that these should be done at the same time. In particular, there is an entire row titled "Pope Benedict XVI", containing links to: Papal conclave, 2005; Theology of Pope Benedict XVI; Pope Benedict XVI bibliography; Resignation of Pope Benedict XVI; Dominus Iesus; Sacramentum Caritatis; Deus Caritas Est; Summorum Pontificum; Spe Salvi; and Caritas in Veritate. I expect that some of these should be amended, others removed; but I am not in a position to decide exactly what should be done. --Redrose64 (talk) 23:31, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

- I've added a new group and list to the template sandbox with regards to Pope Francis. It's similar to the one for Pope Benedict XVI but as Pope Francis is still new it only contains the conclave 2013 link. I suggest for now to keep the group for Pope Benedict XVI's papacy as a seprate group and not included him in the group listing the previous popes yet. I did rename it as Pope-Emiritus though. I suggest we keep it as such as a separate group for the duration of the Pope-Emeritus' life. Once Benedict dies, one can/should re-evaluate the issue, but for now he's still a large living part of Catholicism. -- fdewaele, 14 March 2013.

While we're in there, can we separate "Particular Churches" from "Liturgical rites" which are two separate concepts? And why don't I see "Roman Rite" or "Dominican Rite"?Oh, now I'm seeing why some are boldfaced. It is distinguishing the Liturgical Rites from the Particular Churches. "Latin Church" is a particular Church, though, not a Rite. Elizium23 (talk) 21:39, 5 December 2014 (UTC)- Right!

Hello. Shouldn't Vatican City be listed somewhere on the template? The section including 'Institutions' may be a good place for that. Or even an 'Above' listing. Seems to be a major omission. Personally I would also add a subsection to a 'Vatican City' listing: 'Index of Vatican City-related articles' as 'index'. So I'll suggest that as well. Thanks.

Section 'Particular Churches and Liturgical rites'
[edit]Greetings, When looking at this section, Particular Churches and Liturgical rites after a few mouse hovers it becomes clear that the rites are in bold and churches not bold. It would be helpful to readers, first of all, to be in alpha sequence, and sub-sections. Since all of the above sections of the template do not have any sub-sections, it's probably better to just divide churches and rites into their own section.

[edit]Greetings, For this template: any need to keep or remove the Preceding popes section? Regards, JoeHebda (talk) 14:01, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

I say keep it, but rename it to "Recent Popes". If making the template smaller is a consideration, possibly combine "Preceding Popes" with "Pope Francis", into a "Recent Popes" section, where Francis is listed with a note that he's the current pope - so, for example:
- Pope Francis (current) · Pope Benedict XVI · Pope John Paul II · Pope John Paul I · Pope Paul VI · Pope John XXIII · Pope Pius XII · Pope Pius XI · Pope Benedict XV · Pope Pius X · Pope Leo XIII · (more)
I think it's worthwhile to keep some history of the papacy in the template, to indicate the continuity and history of the Church. Argyriou (talk) 18:33, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
- The template group header "Pope Francis" could be changed to "Incumbent pope" with {{Incumbent pope}} template as the first group item. It would convey more information, i.e. explicit about who is the incumbent, be more consistent with the "Preceding popes" (or re-named "Recent popes" or "Past popes") group header. –BoBoMisiu (talk) 15:38, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
I say keep it. Leo XIII is often considered to be the first the pope of the modern era (for example, he's the oldest pope listed on the main section of the Vatican website, if I recall correctly), and there is a strong continuity of thought among all the popes from Leo XIII onward. The phrase itself, however, is a bit awkward. Maybe something different than "preceding popes"? Too much alliteration there. 8bitW (talk) 20:18, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
Updates to 'Charity' section
[edit]Greetings, FYI the Charity section is updated with 'Aid to the Church in Need' and 'Catholic Relief Services' both of which I am familiar with. There may be other Catholic church charitable organizations (not local) within the global scope that might be added in the future. Regards, JoeHebda (talk) 14:15, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
Background colour
[edit]The current background colour gold is garish (on my screen anyway), resulting in a navbox that overwhelms it less-flashy neighbours. How about something less hard on the eyes, something like #ffee66 ? — Rwxrwxrwx (talk) 19:49, 28 January 2016 (UTC)
- I have now changed it to #ffee99 . — Rwxrwxrwx (talk) 17:22, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
- Rwxrwxrwx – fyi, there are actually hundreds of Catholicism navbox templates, all with color of gold. So to be consistent should they all be changed? Working on an unrelated issue, today I changed my Wikipedia skin to Vector & immediately noticed it's less colorfull so perhaps that might help with less color contrast. Regards, JoeHebda (talk) 02:12, 12 February 2016 (UTC)
- Rwxrwxrwx – On my browser (a clone of Chrome) there is an add-on ScreenShader which can adjust color contrasts, bells & whistles, may be helpful for you also. JoeHebda (talk) 02:21, 12 February 2016 (UTC)
- Yes, if you propse changing colours, you should probably post the question in a more general place of the templates than this individual one. Chicbyaccident (talk) 14:25, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
Rites section
[edit]I think we should consider a revision to the "rites" section. In this context, "rites" would normally refer to the historical liturgical tradition of a particular church. In that sense, "Anglican Use" and "Ordinate Use" don't fit, since they are particular uses or expressions of the Roman Rite. (Additionally, according to the articles, the Anglican Use has been retired and superseded by the Ordinate Use.) Secondly, there are also several historic rites listed which descended from the traditions of the Latin Church, but developed somewhat separately from the Roman Rite (the Ambrosian, Sarum, and Mozarabic rites). These rites are now only used in very limited geographic areas and are not permitted to be used by the Church at large.
I think it's a bit misleading and unnecessarily confusing to newcomers to list these rites as if they were on equal footing with the main rites of the Catholic Church, which can in fact be celebrated without prejudice in any geographic location. I would suggest removing these rites from the infobox so people aren't confused into thinking they are celebrated at large throughout the Church.
Additionally I would like to check if there is a "Rites of the Latin Church" category or something like that to organize the various rites of the Latin Church, including the historical ones.
Thanks for your consideration, 8bitW (talk) 23:11, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
Excluding Doctors of the Church?
[edit]This template is currently rather large. Perhaps the list of Doctors of the Church, having its own template, should be lifted from this template? Chicbyaccident (talk) 10:50, 12 February 2016 (UTC)
- Greetings, Looking at this template, I really like the "Popes" and "Associations of the Faithful" sections use of the (More) wikilink. So for the "Doctors of the Church" section, I suggest doing something similar. For example, only list the 6 most recent doctors, followed by the (More) which wikilinks to the same as "Doctors of the Church". Any feedback is welcome.

- Slight Oppose, unnecessary, it's fine as is and corresponds with the visible title. It seems that most titles which have a side-template and a footer name one of them with just the topic, as this one. So in that consistency is already achieved. Randy Kryn 11:17, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

Discussion on adding a Josephology section

Harmonisation of history section with equivalent templates
[edit]I'm thinking it would be suitable to harmonise the contents of the history section of this template with the history contents of Template:Catholic Church sidebar, and Template:History of the Catholic Church.
Here below is an idea:

For "below" line, are "Templates" and "WikiProject" really needed?
[edit]Greetings, Today I re-grouped similar elements on the template's "below" line. Wonder if "Templates" and "WikiProject" can be removed? IMO not needed for Wikipedia readers. Regards, — JoeHebda • (talk) 10:42, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
- Yeah, I don't think it hurts much, does it? For the rest, I'm sceptical about separation of below section in two rows for space economy in already cluttere templates.

Size
[edit]This template is too long, this template would not look better if looks like the Template:Eastern Orthodox Church footer? (Pseudo-Dionysius the areopagite (talk) 18:24, 30 August 2019 (UTC)).
- Its size seems fine, although it may have too many listings for some topics (and the one in the section above, that's way too big). A template is a Wikipedia topic map. A good template will divide the topics into sections, present each section coherently (chronological order, or importance to the topic, or other formats), and act as a guide to the collection as much as completeness allows. Randy Kryn (talk) 18:34, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
- Templates could be big, but not huge. Admittedly this template is closer to maximum than most typical templates, but still within default larger size, I would interpretate. Conversely, don't you think Template:Eastern Orthodox Church footer could be extended somewhat? PPEMES (talk) 20:20, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
Mass of Paul VI

OK. I have never done this and want you to do it. I wanted to ad to the "charities section" One of the most well known Catholic charities is missing. Its literally called Catholic Charities and it is in every city. Please list it. Also, somewhere you should list the two Nationwide Catholic support groups for homosexually oriented Catholics: One is called Courage. It is sanctioned by the Catholic church and supports Catholics in living celibate lives in line with Catholic teaching. The other is called Dignity, and it is not sanctioned by the church and it is for Catholics who want to meet other Catholics who are gay and believe that God does not condemn them for living fully as fully sexual beings in same sex relationships. Both organizations can be found by simple google searches. Thank you 2600:1700:11E1:3090:5079:D090:A0CD:9E9F (talk) 05:24, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
Not done only topics which have a Wikipedia article are in this footer. Catholic charities is already hyperlinked in the footer. Veverve (talk) 10:37, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
Done, the main one has an article (Catholic Charities USA) and, since the template has the section, seems a good suggestion. Randy Kryn (talk) 11:01, 28 December 2021 (UTC)

I'm not quite good enough at wikitext to see why this footer has vte with a line break in between them? Usually they don't right? Happy Editing--IAmChaos 23:51, 31 March 2023 (UTC)
