Regarding the origin of the custom of the white papal cassock, a priest from Indianapolis writes: 
"You state that the use of the papal white cassock originated with Pius V's use of his Dominican habit. I have heard this story repeated many times, and I suspect it is repeated so often because it's kind of a cute story. I suspect the story is apocryphal. 
"Raphael's painting The Mass at Bolsena (1512) portrays Julius II in what appears to be pretty much the same white cassock and red mozzetta worn by popes today, as does his seated portrait of Julius II, and his Portrait of Leo X with Cardinals Luigi de' Rosso and Giulio de' Medici (1518-19). Piombo's 1526 portrait of Clement VII, and Titian's 1546 portrait of Paul III also portray these popes in white cassock and red mozzetta." 
According to the news show Rome Reports, which airs on EWTN, popes have worn white since Sixtus IV (1471-1484). This is borne out in the contemporary portrait of Sixtus IV by Melozzo da Forlì (c. 1477-80).

So, as wonderful as the story of St. Pius V, OP, refusing to give up his wonderful habit, it just doesn't jibe with the facts.

replies: text: True enough. It was the actual first Dominican friar elected pope, Innocent V, who began the custom of wearing white. He was elected some 290 years before Pius V. Perhaps since they both had the same posnominal number they have been easily confused.
The article is sourced using a blog showing pics, saying earlier popes wore "the same cassock" as Pius V. I've never seen a painting of Pius V in a cassock. He is wearing white with a red mozzetta, but not a cassock. These are hardly cassocks  :File:Pope_Pius_V_16th_century.jpg It's a very wide garment made of thin cloth. The oldest pic I've found of a pope possibly wearing a cassock is Benedict XIV, 18th century. :File:Benoit_XIV.jpg. Maybe Pius wore his dominican habit - but if so, he was never depicted in it, but always in the papal "gala". Blogs aren't good sources, unless they are written by experts. In this case the blogger is obviously mistaken. --90.236.31.76 (talk) 09:26, 25 November 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: Excuse me, this dogma about "Immaculate Conception" was not proclaimed in 1874 but in 1854 (8th December). I read, that Pius V forbid to dispute about this question to theologians, because it was very warm and vehement this dispute.--Stebunik (talk) 19:10, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

message: In most of the other articles, the section detailing a Pope's activities during office are under the heading "Papacy," not "Pontificate." Should that be changed for consistency?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.18.207.7 (talk) 03:41, 18 August 2012 (UTC)

message: The reference to St. Pius V's feastday as a memorial is changed to optional memorial, which term is used in the site referred to in the statement.  It is also the designation used in the Roman Missal. Caeruleancentaur (talk) 03:27, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Optional Memorial 

message: "He also stood firm against nepotism, rebuking his predecessor Pope Pius IV to his face when he wanted to make a 13-year-old member of his family a cardinal and subsidize a nephew from the papal treasury.[5]"
How is that possible, when Pius IV died prior to V's papacy? The linked reference does not explain it and the years noted on each end make it impossible to refer to an event prior to IV's papacy. Is this not logically impossible?
:One would assume, though not stated in the source, that Antonio Ghislieri rebuked his predecessor as a cardinal, not as pope. --Kansas Bear (talk) 18:47, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: At the end of the article, I noticed two categories: :Category: Counter-Reformation - :Category: Anti-Protestantism ("Counter-Reformation" and "Anti-Protestantism").
: I think that is one too many and one too few. Two categories: anti-Reformation and (the same): anti-Protestantism – are too much. There is not really to say, that Tridentimum fought only against Protestantism, but rather to say, that it restored Catholicism too. Or: were not before the Reformation all these European countries - including England - Catholic? Who was before? Also: it is not the most felicitous expression »anti-Reformation«, much less »anti-Protestantism«. This last term is a bit offensive to Catholics. The term Counter-Reformation introduced protestant historian Von Ranke, which was otherwise a good historian, but he had looking at the history of the protestant angle; he very very loved Lutheranism. Wikipedia is neither Protestant nor Catholic, but objective and impartial. Therefore, if one category of anti- must be in this article, let it be one category of for- too (Counter-Reformation, Catholic-Restoration). Only then will be the categories fair and balanced according to the historical truth. We can omit a category of anti-Protestantism, because it is more eligible category Counter-Reformation. There should be written a category of Catholic restoration, because Tridentinum was it.  I hope that now we are no longer one against the other, but the one for the other: but all for the unity in Christ.--Stebunik (talk) 18:58, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  Pius V and Immaculate conception 

message: He forbade horse racing in St. Peter's Square. Severe sanctions were imposed against blasphemy and adultery. The penalty for sodomy was to be burned at the stake. Doctors were forbidden to treat patients who had not recently confessed or received the sacraments. Blasphemers were allegedly treated according to their pocketbooks. The rich were heavily fined, the poor were flogged. These draconian laws quickly made Pius V the subject of Roman hatred[citation needed]; he was accused[citation needed] of trying to turn the city into a vast monastery. It should be noted, however, that he was not a hypocrite: in day-to-day life Pius V was highly ascetic. He wore a hair shirt beneath the simple habit of a Dominican friar and was often seen in bare feet.[17]
