Talk:Agape feast

Mormon potlucks?
Can the official (Mormon church potluck dinners) and the unofficial dinners held by many Mormon women constitute types of Agape feasts?

 * If reliable secondary sources say they do, but not otherwise (not on Wikipedia, which does not publish the novel ideas nor the original research of its editors and readers. —&thinsp;AReaderOutThataway&thinsp;t/c 21:38, 31 August 2019 (UTC)

Sourcing and citation cleanup needed
This article has several citation problems: —&thinsp;AReaderOutThataway&thinsp;t/c 22:51, 31 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Invalid citations; the one that most stuck out was attempting to use a Google search as a source. Search results are not sources; they can be tools for editors to use off-site, looking for sources.
 * Incomplete and malformed citations. In particular, we cannot (per WP:SAYWHEREYOUGOTIT) cite a classical author like Tertullian and just leave it at that. Every citation has to be to a published source.  Thus, such citations-to-the-ancients can read something like.
 * No consistent citation style. This is veering between WP:CS1, WP:CS2 (the template), and unformatted (e.g. bare URL) citations or attempts at citations.  Per WP:CITEVAR, these need to be all in one consistent format within the article.  Given that CS2 is almost dead, and trying to do an article in CS2, when about 99% of editors do CS1 by default requires watchlisting it like a hawk, I would suggest moving to CS1 format.
 * Various parameters are being misused in citation templates (especially the CS2 template, though also in some CS1 templates). I cleaned up some of this as I ran across it (e.g. removal of English which is redundant since it's the default), but there's a lot of confusion in there about what is a title of a work, what is a subwork, what is a publisher, and so on.  In short, please actually read the template documentation before you use the template.

Coffee hour
The section on Eastern Orthodoxy currently reads: A number of Eastern Orthodox Christian parishes will have an agape meal (Turkish: sevgi ziyafeti), commonly known as coffee hour (Spanish: café comunitario), on Sundays and feast days following the Divine Liturgy, and especially at the conclusion of the Paschal Vigil. Why exactly are glosses being given in Turkish and Spanish? Furius (talk) 20:21, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
