The prosposed guideline has been inactive and I do not want to make changes without consent. This is somewhat of a pet project to get together the Catholic Church’s perspective. I will try to make a proposal and receive input and present before the Wikipedia community.

The following is a proposed Wikipedia policy, guideline, or process. The proposal may still be in development, under discussion, or in the process of gathering consensus for adoption.
