Anglican Communion Network
Can you look at Anglican Communion Network? It is now claiming that the ACN is taking over as the de facto Anglican church in the USA after Lambeth 2008. This was news to me. How does one go about reporting a problem?

 * Since your message someone else has fixed this rather surprising forecast (see diff.


 * There are several ways to deal with problems. If a problem is aggregious and will mislead readers, and you can't quicky fix it by editing, there are various tags I would consider to alert the readers and the editors, such as   and  .  Useful tags, and instructions for using them, are listed at Template messages/Sources of articles and Template messages/Disputes.  It is important to assume good faith, and engage the original editors on the talk page of the article.  If they were intending to be neutral, unconscious biases probably got into the text, so it is easy to negotiate improvements.


 * A useful antidote to bias is verifiable facts WP:VERIFY, so continually to ask politely but firmly for references.


 * This particular article makes a lot of (surprising) assertions, a few of which are controversial.  Everyone editing a controversial article like this should make themselves familiar with WP:CITE.


 * If you can't persuade anyone to fix an article and you can't resolve the dispute by negotiating a 'win-win' (I don't think you are there yet) then there are other ways of getting help - see Resolving disputes.  --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 08:58, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I cut a lot of unsourced assertions from the article that seemed excessively fawning or critical, or that just seemed provocative (I couldn't tell which side of the debate they all came from). Is it good enough yet? --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 09:14, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

Diocese of Newark questions

 * 1) Do you think my section on the election of the tenth bishop at Episcopal Diocese of Newark is balanced?
 * 2) Do you have access to sources (such as church newspapers) that can fill out the bio of John P. Croneberger? --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 09:00, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * It seemed so when I read it the first time but I will read it again more closely and let you know what I think.


 * I do have access to the diocesan paper and other resources and would be glad to help build up the entry on John P. Croneberger. I even have access to him if need be!

 * Freely licensed photos would be great if you dare to take a camera to church!
 * The bio is missing some essential bio trivia (date and place of birth, and year of priestly ordination.) Also, since I know very little about life in your diocese, I don't know if we have his most interesting career achievements, though I do know that we don't have citations for those we do list.  We won't always be here to answer questions.  Be bold!  --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 09:14, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
