thread_title: Missing from list of bishops?

message: The new bishop of the Diocese of Atlanta was ordained today, Bishop Robert Wright. Current leadership shows the old Bishop Neil Alexander as the current leadership. WWW.EpiscopalAtlanta.org for more information.
I also doubt the page linked to Robert Wright is the correct person.
I served as an acolyte during the ordination.

thread_title:  Proposed merge with [[Kevin D. Nichols]] 

message: "Between the 1970s and the 2020s, the diocese has been a major epicenter for clerical sexual abuse claims regarding priests, youth leaders, and organists, with multiple thousands of criminal charges against clergy and lay employees.[original research?]"
I would assume that this statement is flagged as lacking original research because there is none out there to be cited. The above statement is false.  There have been no incidents of clerical sexual abuse at all, let alone "multiple thousands of criminal charges."  
Beyond the fact that it's lacking proof, the statement is also also numerically highly improbable.  As cited in the article, this is a small jurisdiction with a little over 8,000 members spread over only 57 congregations.  A reasonable assumption would be that the total number of current clergy and lay employees would be somewhere in the neighborhood of a couple of hundred people.  Most of these staffers have been with the diocese for many years, and several parishes are staffed by clergy who are still hanging in there well past retirement age.  
Logically, even going back over the past 50 years as cited in the above statement, the total number of employees would be less than a thousand.  To have generated "multiple thousands of criminal charges," every single employee would have to have been one very busy, very wicked beaver. 
The statement is inaccurate, wildly improbable, and clearly malicious disinformation. 168.91.163.62 (talk) 19:19, 16 March 2023 (UTC)

As I was going to remove it, I wondered why this page even exists.
Shouldn't this page be a disambig page with links to the

I propose that any content on this page be merged to the
appropriate pages (most of which is probably already there)

replies: text: I have expanded the article from published sources. The phrase "the pillars of Roman origin used within the nave" bothers me: the "pillars" look like clustered columns, and they don't look even faintly "Roman". Often "Romanic" is misused by non-native speakers, where the English style designation is Romanesque. I didn't make this change, however, not knowing the church at first hand. --Wetman 12:42, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Plea

message: This page needs work.
Some thoughts, plea is a legal term that is mostly archaic in meaning. In the criminal context it means the criminal's response to the state's indictment or information, in the civil context it is usually a linguistic artifact (such as a plea in bar, or a plea to the jurisdiction). In addition, I believe this is geogrpahically biased.
I recommend an overhaul and consideration of whether this page should be merged into existing articles such as plea bargain. 
There seems to be a definition at the top? Should that be in there?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.209.208.11 (talk) 07:48, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

message: I believe "special liability to repair a road or bridge" was a special case where where 'res judicata' did not apply to a claim. Namely in a case where party A had been acquitted on the defence that a third party, B, was liable, and B was subsequently tried and obtained acquittal by proving that A was liable, A could be tried again. Nonetheless, it is listed as a Plea in Bar in the Oxford Dictionary of Law Enforcement. William Avery (talk) 14:08, 6 February 2015 (UTC)
thread_title: Peremptory pleas and "special liability to repair a road or bridge"

message: "Plea" is ambiguous.  A person might make a plea in normal conversation, which is not the meaning discussed in this article.  The added parenthetical clarification would be analogous to the one on Filing (legal).  Any thoughts?  I can just do it, but won't rush. -- econterms (talk) 21:04, 27 January 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Let's rename to Plea (legal) 

message: I'm not qualified to add this, but we should really have something about non-Common-Law countries. In many, if not perhaps most, of them the idea of "pleading guilty" or "pleading not guilty" simply doesn't exist. The defendant can of course confess their guilt or dispute their guilt as part of the trial, but there is no formal plea before the trial. Guilt is always determined through the trial itself and the evidence presented therein. 178.7.217.74 (talk) 02:12, 17 November 2021 (UTC)

thread_title: naming convention for kings; English first name

message: , first of all we can talk about it at the article's talk page, all you need to do is to ping me. Second of all it is not me who edited the information. If I would edit information in regards to historical matter, I rely on information that is available through the Encyclopedia of History of Ukraine (link) which is published through the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine Institute of History. According to the encyclopedia, in the article about Mstislav II of Kiev it is mentioned that his mother was some unidentified German princess, the same goes for his father Izyaslav whose wife is mentioned also as supposedly some German princess. If it shows that it was indeed me, I do apologize for confusion. It looks like you might be right about the Leo's ancestry issue. I found that the Mstislav's mother might have been of the House of Hohenstaufen rather than Staufen, second, according to the article about Gertrude of Comburg, it looks that the website "Geni" is not precise about Agnes either where Agnes Liubava might have been a daughter of the first Gertrude of Comburg rather than second Gertrude of Sulzbach. Aleksandr Grigoryev (talk) 17:39, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
