The "patron" field renders as "Patron saint"; I notice that some Catholic entities using the other template have non-canonised types as a patron: for example, Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham. Perhaps a "patron_title" field defaulting to "patron saint" would be a means of addressing this. Smartiger ( talk) 21:49, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
{{ Infobox diocese}} has the "rite" parameter to cover the different rites of the Catholic Church. I suggest there should be an "anglican_communion" parameter to cover the different churches in the Anglican Communion: e.g. Church of England, Scottish Episcopal Church, Anglican Church of Australia, etc. After all it is meant to be a multi-denominational template. -- Scrivener-uki ( talk) 23:14, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
In the case of Metropolitan sees in the Catholic church, it may be interesting to have a parameter "Suffragan see(s)". What do you think?-- Alberto Fernandez Fernandez ( talk) 14:11, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
I would suggest to add a type parameter to the infobox to incorporate the diversity to the particular churches in the Catholic Church. In the Catholic Church, sees may fall into 25 different types of dioceses (Detailed listing http://www.gcatholic.com/dioceses/types.htm). Some sees also have the title of Primatial sees ( Primate (bishop)) like the Diocese of Rome. This would complement the parameter "jurisdiction" allowing to link to the wikipage explaining to the term without wikilinking the title of the infobox. As example in the case of territorial prelatures like Territorial Prelature of Loreto, the title of the box would read "Territorial... " and the link to territorial prelate would come in the box. What do you think? -- Alberto Fernandez Fernandez ( talk) 14:22, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
I'm wondering whether it would be better to move the "|priests=" parameter from the "Information" block to the "Statistics" block? It gives the number of priests in the diocese/archdiocese and would keep in with the number of parishes, churches, schools, etc.
Also would it better to move the "|metropolitan=" parameter from the "Locations" block to the "Current leadership" block? Who ever is the
Metropolitan is a person not a location. The parameter is in the "Current leadership" block in the {{
Infobox Roman Catholic diocese}}. --

02:29, 3 February 2011 (UTC)|bishop=
and |bishop_title=Archbishop
. If it was a diocese, and not an archdiocese, then I put the bishop in the bishop field and the archbishop in the metro_archbishop field. The |pope=
field seems a bit redundant, since it is the same pope for all Roman Catholic diocese. However, since it was in the other infobox, and the TFD outcome was to merge the two, I merged it. I think the potential problem comes from the fact that "metropolitan" was used for "metropolitan archbishop" in the Roman Catholic box, but seems to be commonly used for the "metropolitan area" in this infobox. My suggestion for changing this would involve changing the label for this field to "location", adding an optional |location=
parameter, which would do the exact same thing as what |metropolitan=
does now, then deprecating the "metropolitan" parameter. I could even have a bot change them all, since it would be in the context of the merger, and my bot is approved to make changes to assist with outcomes of
WP:TFDs. What do you think? Is there a better option, or is this just not a problem? Moving the |priests=
to the statistics block is far easier, since it just requires a minor change here. I can do that as well if there are no objections. Thanks!

|province=

03:12, 1 June 2011 (UTC)This template is used in the article Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham, which is an ordinariate and not a diocese. The parameter "priests" displays as "Diocesan priests" which is inaccurate for the article. The proper term for "diocesan" priests is "secular priests", as opposed to "regular priests" who live by a rule. Can we change the displayed value to reflect the proper, official term instead, so it is accurate for every article, including those which are not dioceses? Thanks. Elizium23 ( talk) 13:11, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
I have noticed a pretty widespread error on the infoboxes for dioceses. Over, and over, they indicate that the local see city where the bishop's residence is located is the "Metropolitan." This is just not accurate. For example, Diocese of Gaylord says that the Metropolitan is "Gaylord, Michigan." This is wrong twice over, first because a metropolitan is a bishop, not a town; and second because it is (for Gaylord) the Archbishop of Detroit, not the Bishop of Gaylord. Virtually any other infobox has the same mistake; see, e.g., Diocese of Burlington. MrArticleOne ( talk) 21:46, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
What is this parameter supposed to mean? The diocese is usually spread over an area and thus cant be attributed particular coordinates. Am I misunderstanding something? This is in turn leading to " coordinates missing" tagging of all articles of dioceses. ~ ScitDei Wanna talk? 10:25, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
What is the proper use of the field "Rite"? A diocese does not have a "rite", it belongs to an autonomous particular church; in the Catholic Church, this is one of 23 sui iuris Churches, of which the Latin Church is the largest and best-known. But there are 22 Eastern Catholic Churches. Sometimes their dioceses are called eparchies. But the problem at hand is the use of the murky term "Latin Rite" in many, almost all, the infoboxes that use the "Rite" field. Many sources, including the Church's official documents, use "Latin Rite" in various ways, especially to actually refer to the Latin Church. Sometimes it refers to the Roman Rite, which is the best-known Rite of the Latin Church. But a diocese should always be associated not with a Rite, but a Church. The bulk of dioceses will be members of the Latin Church, and some will be the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, and so forth. But how can we express this in the infobox? Particular church? Sui iuris church? We need to rename this field, because it is misused and misunderstood. Elizium23 ( talk) 07:36, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

Would it be possible to add a new category, after "Leadership", of "Diocesan Officers"? In the Anglican Communion, there are officers in each diocese, such as the Chancellor, the Registrar and the Archivist, who carry out functions under the canon law of the diocese. It would be useful to have an entry for those officers in the infobox. Mr Serjeant Buzfuz ( talk) 07:08, 14 October 2014 (UTC)
Could a new line be added under the "Leadership" category for the Dean of the diocesan cathedral?
