As the person who started this article as separate from the Episcopal Diocese of South Carolina, I wanted to distinguish between #1: the historic and undisputed diocese; #2: the current diocese of the Episcopal Church; and #3: the autonomous diocese. There was a separate article for #2 but no separate article for #3, and I sensed an edit war was beginning with Kotobagaari over how to treat #3# in the article for #1, so created the new article to avoid it. While I think it's inconvenient to have three articles for the same disputed diocese(!), I think it is the most neutral approach, at least until legal disputes are resolved. If the Episcopal church wins in court, we can then merge articles #1 and #2, and perhaps keep #3 for separatist churches; if the autonomous diocese wins, we can merge #1 and #3 and keep #2 separate. At least, that's a thought. -- Wikibojopayne ( talk) 16:14, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
This article will likely be deleted tomorrow, so I'm turning it into a redirect to Episcopal Diocese of South Carolina, just as has been done for Diocese of South Carolina (Anglican). Wikibojopayne ( talk) 14:23, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
