Some Wikipedians have formed a
project to better organize information in articles related to
Anglicanism and the
Anglican Communion. Wikipedia articles on Anglican-related topics are typically at or near the top of
Google searches – so accurate, thorough, and – yes – comprehensive entries are imperative. This page and its subpages contain suggestions and it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. All Anglican editors and those interested in Anglican Christianity are invited and encouraged to participate. If you would like to help, please inquire on the
talk page and see the to-do list
here. The goals of the project are:
To improve the quality of Anglican-related articles.
To increase the number of articles related to Anglicanism and the Anglican Communion in Wikipedia.
Tasks
To do
Add the portal template and the project banner to all relevant pages.
These articles have been selected by the Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team for one or more release versions of wikipedia. Please help ensure that these articles remain of the highest possible quality.
The following templates can be used on pages in Wikipedia to associate them with the Anglicanism WikiProject. Click on a template's title to see a sample of what it produces when included on a page. For a full list of Anglicanism templates see the main
template page.
Main templates
{{WikiProject Anglicanism}} — Template to add to talk pages of all Anglican-related articles
{{Anglicanism COTM}} — Template informing editors of the Anglicanism Collaboration of the Month
This is a subscription resource, however, UK library members will probably find they can gain access via their library's subscription, check your council's library webpages for details
The result of a project run by
King's College London, with various partners, to list all Church of England clergy from 1540–1835 (at this period this also includes what is now the Church in Wales). Not all dioceses have yet been completed. The site also contains diocesan histories, and other general reference material.
Listing of UK Anglican clergy, requires subscription for the current directory. Project member
User:David Underdown can also access certain old editions (1858, 1868, 1874, 1885 and 1908).
London Gazette, official notice of appointment of CofE bishops (both dicoesan and suffragan) (from approx 1665 on, including Wlesh clergy to the disestablishment of the Church in Wales) can usually be found using the Gazette's
search facility. Details of appointments to other
livings etc in the gift of the Crown are also published there, as well as
British honours and appointments to the Royal Household (e.g. clergy attached to the
Chapel Royal, those appointed Honorary chaplain to the monarch and so on). Template {{LondonGazette}} can be used to provide consistent formatting of references to this resource, and to ease future maintenance of these references.
You don't need to be Anglican to be a participant. Please add your name to the list below (you may add your location, parish, and diocese if you wish). Members will receive the project newsletter automatically. To unsubscribe add yourself to the list
here. Editors who make no edits to Wikipedia at all in three months will be pruned from the list. Editors can always join the list again when they return to Wikipedia.

All Saints Episcopal Church (Jensen Beach, Florida),
Episcopal Diocese of Southeast Florida. Interested in starting/rewriting articles on dioceses and bishops of the
ECUSA and on individual parishes, especially ones on the
National Register of Historic Places or otherwise of historic note. I've been busy creating subcategories for each state and Washington, D.C. in the Category:Episcopal churches in the United States and finding and or creating disambiguation pages for Anglican or Episcopal churches by name. I'm also interested in
Carpenter Gothic churches in the US and Canada and have found that most of them are Episcopal or Anglican churches. I've also been trying to untangle the
Episcopal Diocese of Delaware in which most church listings are actually redirect pages to the diocesan article. This has created difficulties in creating real articles on the churches so redirected. I'm also doing Anglican churches listed on various historic registers in Canada••

Geogre (

Richard Hooker article(s) improve. Oh, and diocese? I'd rather not. Episcopal Church, USA is about all I'd care to offer.••|

For people: [[Thomas Cranmer]], unless others by that name exist, in which case the activity for which the individual is best known should be bracketed, e.g., [[Richard Hooker (theologian)]] (not [[Richard Hooker (scholar)]], [[Richard Hooker (priest)]], etc.)
For clergy: (deacon), (priest), (bishop)
For scholars: (theologian), (philosopher)
Other possibilities: (author), (martyr), (missionary), (religious)
For other subjects: The simpler the title the better, with redirects or
disambiguation pages, as necessary. Where there are existing articles, the word "Anglican" should be incorporated, e.g., [[Anglican Eucharistic theology]], [[Order of St. Benedict (Anglican)]]
