Priority of making the article Roger Mahony conform to all other articles on Roman Catholic Cardinals[edit]

Westofpch, I appreciate your taking an interest in the article Roger_Mahony. I also appreciate your willingness to explain in your edit summary that your examination of the Archdiocese website indicated that the Cardinal preferred to use the title of his office ahead of his proper name, and so that therefore the lead sentence of this article should reflect this observation, instead of conforming to centuries of traditional Roman Catholic usage of clerical titles.

It is very important, however, that you provide verifiable, reliable sources for inclusion in this article which would explain whether the decision to print the office title ahead of the Cardinal's proper name was made personally by the Cardinal himself, or whether this choice was made in fact by the site creator, Deacon Eric Stoltz, if you still wish to have this detail included in the text of this article.

Unfortunately, when you made the editing change to the article, you also accidentally brought this encyclopedia entry out of conformity with the dozens of other Wikipedia articles on past and present members of the College of Cardinals, as it is a style convention in this encyclopedia that the title Cardinal should be included immediately before the last name when describing the subject's full name anywhere in the body of the article, especially in the lead sentence of an article entry.

Now the article Roger_Mahony does not match the other articles on Roman Catholic cardinals. Not to worry-your edit can be reverted. If you still disagree, please stop by and make a comment on the talk page, or you can also contact me directly. Cheers! 198.252.8.202TalkHistory 02:41, 15 May 2008 (UTC

Airbrushed!! Mahony was notorious...[edit]

Mahony was likely the most notorious protector of abusive priests in the United States, after Cardinal Law in Boston. This page is extraordinarily inaccurate and portrays his work as positive. His actions kept abusers in the diocese, and he refused to pass any church documents to civil authorities for decades. This is one of the most insidious men in the Church, and his half-baked, publicity-driven measures to 'protect children' are being paraded as evidence of his enduring dedication to fighting child abuse. There are actually released records of him speaking to top aides about how to shield abusers from civil law enforcement. Shame on him and his, who have scrubbed this page of any accurate material. Please help Wikipedia community! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 37.44.86.101 (talk) 21:02, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
