Lent
editI've attempted to make a clarification at Lent#Oriental Orthodoxy, specifically, regarding 55 fasting days vs. 40 days of Lent in the Ethiopian church. (Here's a list of the specific edits: [1].) I've added some sources along with it. However, as a result of my efforts, the section now leans more heavily toward Lent as practiced in Ethiopian Orthodoxy. Presumably it is the same in Eritrean Orthodoxy; I am not sure at all about the other churches. I thought I'd leave a note here in case anyone else wishes to offer further clarification regarding the other churches (or correction, if necessary, for what I've already written). -- Gyrofrog (talk) 16:20, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
Pew report
edit(Cross-posted to Talk:Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church) This might be of interest to the WikiProject: "Orthodox Christianity in the 21st Century" (PDF), released by the Pew Research Center on 2017-11-08. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 16:11, 29 November 2017 (UTC)
Honorifics and "Mar Thoma"
editHi, I have been going through articles and removing honorifics from them. This includes "Mar", "Mor", "Maran Mar", and "Moran Mor". However, I have come to a quandary. "Mar Thoma" is a common appellation in the Malankara Church, and I am told it's not strictly an honorific, but part of a name. There are Metropolitans named "Mar Thoma I, II, III..." and there are many more whose name includes "Mar Thoma" or even spelled "Marthoma". I realize we can't just knock out "Mar" and leave "Thoma" in these cases. Could it be left intact by Wikipedia's guidelines? What to do? Elizium23 (talk) 01:40, 2 March 2020 (UTC)
- Comment: Although it's been moved back-and-forth a few times, "Thoma I" should be "Mar Thoma I" (and "Thoma II" at "Mar Thoma II" etc.), according to the #Syriac bishops guideline in place at WP:NCCL. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 17:45, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
Orthodox Tewahedo

List of maphrians
editThere was a recent POV edit war at List of maphrians, and we need an expert on the subject to discern what was correct. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 22:04, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

Assistance needed for Draft:Joint Commission Of The Theological Dialogue Between The Orthodox Church And The Oriental Orthodox Churches
editI need some help expanding the Unofficial Meetings and Official Dialogues section of this draft page.
Also, I'm certain the references for the four official dialogues have a primary source, however I can only seem to find secondary sources online. Perhaps the originals are offline and/or in Greek? Contagious Owl (talk) 01:46, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
Coptic Orthodox Diocese of New York and New England
editWould some members from this WikiProject mind taking a look at Coptic Orthodox Diocese of New York and New England and assessing it? It was created back in 2015, but nobody created a corresponding article talk page or added any WikiProject banners. Since Coptic Orthodox Church is listed a falling within this project's purview, I thought this would be a good place to ask about the diocese's article as well. The content about scandals might be needed to be closely examined to see whether BLP is being violated. -- Marchjuly (talk) 23:53, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
- Hi again, @Marchjuly - I would love to take a look. Unfortunately, it seems this project is a tad inactive... BiscuitsToTheRescue 19:54, 21 September 2022 (UTC)
