message: Planned apology says:
The last sentence in that section implies some irrelevance in the planned apology, as if the Church of England is unrelated to the Catholic Church of 1222 England.
Although the Synod of Oxford predated the Church of England by over 200 years, the office of Archbishop of Canterbury predated the Synod by almost 700 years. Besides, the Church of England was not newly formed in 1534—it was the direct continuation of the Catholic Church in England in its entirety, unaltered in any way (at first) except with the king as its head instead of the pope. Since it was an archbishop of Canterbury (Stephen Langton) who convened the Synod of Oxford in 1222, it is entirely appropriate that the act of repentance be made by his direct successor, the current archbishop, in 2022.
Therefore, I'm adding to that sentence so that the section now reads:
I've also copyedited the section. —8.9.93.141 (talk) 05:12, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Addition to Planned apology 

message: or better sources for the details here. They are too modern so they have a modern bias. This article is about a very old historical event. To comply with WPs neutrality policy, need to find an older source that's reliable. I copied the text in question.
"Economically, Jews played a key role in the country. The Church then strictly forbade the lending of money for profit, creating a vacuum in the economy of Europe that Jews filled because of extreme discrimination in every other economic area, as Jews were prohibited from practicing any art or craft, which were under the monopoly of Christian guilds.[6] Canon law was not considered applicable to Jews, and Judaism does not forbid loans with interest between Jews and non-Jews.[7] Taking advantage of their unique status as his direct subjects, the King could appropriate Jewish assets in the form of taxation. He levied heavy taxes on Jews at will, without having to summon Parliament."[8] 2601:601:51A:D1A:30DC:F336:5C68:7BD2 (talk) 23:05, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Needs more sources  

message: I think there is too much background information in this article, which is largely duplicated on History of the Jews in England and also History of the Jews in England (1066–1290). Some of the points are just too general (eg, explaining feudalism) but overall it seems bad practice to have three articles making broadly the same points in different ways, especially when they are all neatly organised by a navigation table. I'm hoping editors will be OK with some pruning and rationalisation. Jim Killock (talk) 11:33, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
