Talk:Angelus

message: Made the text of the Angelus into a table with the English translation. Not being sure of the copyrights that apply to the translations out there, I translated it myself with the aid of a dictionary and compared it to this site to fix grammar. If someone more knowledgeable about this sort of thing feels that the translation does violate copyrights, please revert it. X) If someone happens to know that any of the regular translations of it are in the public domain, it would probably be better to use one of those. User:Jenmoa 07:15, 27 Feb 2005 (UTC)

message: It would be good to know too why we Catholics should pray the Angelus.
:I'm not sure if you meant we should include this in the article, or if you are just asking.  To give a brief explanation of why the Angelus is a good devotion for Catholics and all Christians, the Angelus remembers Christ's coming in the Flesh in order for our salvation and as Mary was the first to receive Him so we wish to also and with the aid of her prayers to her Son.  I'll think about adding something like this to the article.--Francis419jn655 19:02, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Why we should pray the Angelus... 

message: I've removed the Tagalog translation of the Angelus, as there's no reason for it to appear in the English language Wikipedia. Sonitus 04:33, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Removed Tagalog version

message: This article seems to lack sources... it would be good if there was a source cited to back it up. -Fisheromen 18:56, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree and add some comments to that effect below.  I have also added a couple of "citation needed" to the article.  There are some weasel words too, such as "some" attribute.  Should probably be cleaned up.  In general, the article could use a better history section.--Bruce Hall (talk) 13:40, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Sources?

message: I think this is a good question.Because we must remember the past history of the Angelus.The answer is; Pope Gregory ordered a bell to ring in the evening to remind people to pray for the Crusades.......Louie Bernadette Belga June 21,2007
:This is in the article.  Is there a source?  Given the sensitive nature of the Crusades, there should probably be sources for this and other claims.  I have added in a few "citation needed".--Bruce Hall (talk) 13:37, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why did Pope Gregory ordered a bell to be rung in the evening? 

message: It is pointed out that the Angelus is sounded on RTE TV at 6 each evening but I recall this to be 18 bells long, cf. the 9 cited in the article.  Is there any knowledge on this discrepancy? Daithic (talk) 10:49, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I would imagine you are right. Standard practice seems to be three sets of three (during each Hail Mary), with a pause in between, and then a group of nine for the final Collect. Stefan (talk) 13:43, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

message: Take a look at quotes 7 and 8 in the "Quotes" section.  Are these encyclopedic?  Should they be removed?  ~ All Is One ~ (talk) 21:28, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Removed, since no objection. The notes made no relevant sense; poor spelling.  ~ All Is One ~ (talk) 19:01, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Quotes 7 and 8 

message: I may be mistaken ... but wasn't it the Angel Gabriel who delivered the message to Mary?  Or am I mistaken?  If so, shouldn't this detail be added to the article?  Thanks?  (Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 17:22, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  The Angel [[Gabriel]] 

message: I believe there is a lack of consensus for this change: .  Bold-Revert-Discuss seems to apply.  Can we revert it until a new consensus should emerge?  The issue is being actively discussed at Talk:Maundy Thursday.  Tb (talk) 18:29, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Lack of consensus 

message: There are now various other texts, a couple of English, Latin, Spanish, Maltese,.....
Where are we going to draw the line? Shall Norwegian and Turkish be added too? How about French and Hindustani? I think a link to a separate Wikipedia (be it French or Spanish) or a separate article on multi-languages is better, else it just gets too long and this is English Wikipedia. However, Latin should certainly remain here. Suggestions? History2007 (talk) 10:26, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: These versions should be directly quoted from reliable sources and referenced at each section. Editor notes need to be placed in the edit field warning not to change the text unless consensus is reached via the talk page. All other revisions to these sections should be immediately reverted. Periodic editing of this section would then be unnecessary as stable versions are more helpful to the reader. All is One (talk) 22:34, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Multilingual texts

message: Here is a copied message from Talk:The Angelus (painting): "In this article, "a prayer" is referenced (the Angelus, of course). Clicking on "Angelus" brings up a French history, not an explanation of the thrice daily call to prayer known by that name. It seems to be from a book and not from a Wikipedia page which is usual." Looking over this article, shouldn't it be a concise description of the prayer? The history section can go into its own article Angelus (history). Jane (talk) 08:23, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: The two references given for Anglican practice are quite modern and niche, while I believe the history is longer and more complicated. As written, a reader might assume the practice is authorized, which I believe it is not. 67.180.195.248 (talk) 19:08, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
