Parishes
Instead of deleting these links why not put other ones in? Just because you may not like a particular parish does not mean it shouldn't be linked to from here.

History
I'm sure I have read this article elsewhere at some time: I cannot remember where, but I suspect that this is either a copyvio, or at the very least comes from a source that deserves to be cited.But even that is to assume that it is relevant, and I do not think it is. It is a pre-history of the diocese, not a history of the present entity, and I cannot see how the history of human settlement in the area where the cathedral is currently situated, nor the presence of Elizabethan theatres, can be held to be relevant to the history of a diocese that did not exist until 1850 and covers a far bigger area. The section is also heavily POV: even a page on a Catholic Diocese must be written so that it can be read equally comfortably by members of Opus Dei, the Free Presbyterian Church, or the Humanist Society: I do not believe that it meets that expectation.

 * Nearly 3 weeks and no improvement: it would be my intention to delete this section in a week unless it is made much more relevant.Kevin McE 12:53, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I agree. Will do some editing... Matt - London 09:58, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I Googled a piece of the text, and it seems that Google picked it up from a page on the Cathedral Website which is no longer directly linked to the main website. The page is still visible today here, but does not cite any further sources Pdjenner 05:02, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Pastoral Areas
The three pastoral areas are currently supervised by Bishop Hine (Kent), Bishop Lynch (South-East) and Bishop Hendricks (South West). It is appropriate IMO to list the Bishops in the order shown as it reflects their seniority by date of episcopal ordination followed by age, but I will edit the article to correct the apparent error in allocation.

I have been wondering how to more accurately describe the designation of these auxilary bishops as pastorally responsible for these three areas, as this allocation has no status in Church Law and does not diminish the full pastoral responsibility for the whole diocese that is the responsibility of the Archbishop. As yet I have no answer to this, but am concerned that someone without local knowledge of the church and the diocese may misunderstand the article as it stands. Pdjenner 04:42, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Undue weight
Why is two-thirds of the article about a primary school in Sidcup? -- John of Reading (talk) 11:10, 14 April 2015 (UTC)

St Joseph's Convent and school section
Unless there are any sensible objections I propose moving most of the section on St Joseph's Convent and school to a separate article. The section is far too long and not notable enough for inclusion in this way in the current article. Afterwriting (talk) 22:27, 26 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Unless there are any objections in the next 24 hours I am going to move this section to a new article of its own. Afterwriting (talk) 20:54, 30 January 2016 (UTC)
 * You didn't: I have deleted it. Kevin McE (talk) 11:41, 16 April 2016 (UTC)
