Removal of link[edit]

I have removed the link to the "Catholic Encyclopaedia". It is a transcript of an encyclopaedia published in around 1910 - hardly a relevant or authoritative source.

also in England surely?[edit]

The intro states "As a UK Alliance it has Alliances established in Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales". Presumably, and from the rest of the article, it also has presence in England. Mutt Lunker (talk) 08:17, 30 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

WEA and WCC links[edit]

Given the affiliation of the EA to the WEA, I have added reference to this announcement. Cpsoper (talk) 03:53, 27 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Criticism[edit]

I have added a short referenced section on the EA's advocacy of ecumenism with Roman Catholic Churches and how this is regarded as controversial by some. Cpsoper (talk) 04:25, 27 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You must read WP:NPOV. It's not a controversy unless someone states it's a controversy. Walter Görlitz (talk) 15:49, 27 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, the references refer to a large constituency, and three editors who think it is highly controversial and in their judgement would have been highly controversial to the founders and earlier supporters of the EA. Cpsoper (talk) 03:04, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Even if you listed 10^1000 opposing views, if a neutral party doesn't support the word, it should be used. We had this discussion at the Lausanne Committee for World Evangelization talk page as well. Walter Görlitz (talk) 06:31, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

LGBTQI issues[edit]

The section recently added was unreferenced and has been removed. Cpsoper (talk) 12:10, 18 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

We have some usnourced content[edit]

I'm snot sure where the sources are for this https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Evangelical_Alliance&oldid=prev&diff=933791321 but I have now removed it twice and without sources. Feels like WP:OR and WP:NPOV and WP:UNDUE. I suspect that I will have to request action on Alasdair Mac Colla's Ghost (talk · contribs). Discussion instead? Explanations and sources?
