Talk:Reformation (disambiguation)

message: The disambiguation page should be at this article and not Reformation (disambiguation), because this is where the majority of links are pointing to. Please leave this page as a disambiguation page. Green Giant (talk) 02:56, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: No good idea - that is Euro-centric, and there may be other "Reformations" in other historical epochs, there might even be a starship in a C-rated scifi series with the name "the Reformation" (just an example). I think the Protestant Reformation is the topic that refers to all events in Europe around the 16th centuries, before and after, not just Herr Dr. M. Luther, who was most significant, but definitely not alone. It would be better to rewrite the text on the disambig to refer to all events, not just Luther, and rework the Protestant Reformation to deal with Leo X:es economical decisions, Luthers inflamed tries to evoke debate, and the subsequent schism, chaos, peasant wars, schmakaldic wars, thirty year wars and this-that-whatever. As much as I'm concerned, Kung Fu Tse made an important reformation in China more than 1500 years earlier. Said: Rursus (☻) 14:01, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Making this not a disambiguation page 

message: As can be seen on the disambiguation page, there have been several other significant Reformations throughout history that were just as important, if not more important, than the Protestant Reformation. "Protestant Reformation" should not be the primary topic, and so the pages "The Reformation" and "Reformation" should redirect to the disambiguation page, not to "Protestant Reformation".

thread_title:  "Protestant Reformation" Should Not Be the Primary Topic 

message: To me it makes no sense to include Islamic Reformation under the heading "Movements" but put Counter-Reformation (aka Catholic Reformation) at the end under "See also". Catholic Reformation is a common term for the latter, particularly among Roman Catholic scholars who don't like the implication that they were either reacting to Protestantism or else opposed to all reform. Both Islamic Reformation and Catholic Reformation are redirects anyway. I'd suggest moving Counter-Reformation up to the first section, including the note that it's also known as Catholic Reformation. --Colapeninsula (talk) 16:43, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
