Discretionary Sanctions Notification - Eastern Europe

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have recently shown interest in Eastern Europe. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect: any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Misplaced Pages's policies, or any page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Due solely to the volume of content you've added to Moscow–Constantinople schism (2018) I'm informing you of these rules; I haven't reviewed your edits on that page. power~enwiki (π, ν) 02:25, 29 October 2018 (UTC)

Moscow–Constantinople schism

Your recent editing of Moscow–Constantinople schism (2018) does not appear to be in conformity with our guidelines regarding neutrality and POV editing. See WP:NPOV. Specifically you have introduced large quantities of material cited solely or primarily to sources affiliated with the Ecumenical Patriarchate and two churches regarded as schismatic by all of the other canonical Orthodox churches. And then represented the claims made therein in a manner suggesting they are settled facts. The wording of many of your edits also suggests you are promoting one side of this conflict. POV or WP:AGENDA oriented editing is not allowed. Please be more careful in your future editing so as to ensure that all sides of the disagreement are fairly represented and that we do not give undue weight to affiliated and/or biased sources. Thank you for your contributions to the project. -Ad Orientem (talk) 02:37, 29 October 2018 (UTC)

File:Logo of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America.jpg

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Misplaced Pages non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Misplaced Pages talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

A barnstar for you!

	The Writer's Barnstar
	For your creation of and hard work on Reactions of the Orthodox churches to the 2018 Moscow–Constantinople schism. Cheers! Calthinus (talk) 16:08, 12 January 2019 (UTC)

@Calthinus: (I now see in December that I completly forgot to ping you back in January) Thanks a lot! I did not expect to get it for this article, given that it is Autocephaly of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine which made it Template:In the news recently. Thanks again!

Religion in Ukraine

Hi, if you have time, can you check recent edits to the above article. I don't know much about the subject. Thanks. Denisarona (talk) 16:13, 12 January 2019 (UTC)

@Denisarona: Done. Feel free to ask me if you need another check. Veverve (talk) 17:37, 12 January 2019 (UTC)

A beer for you!

Many thanks for your help. Enjoy!! Denisarona (talk) 11:16, 13 January 2019 (UTC)

Patriarchal Exarchate in South-East Asia

Please, don't do such reverts. Archdiocese of Russian Orthodox churches in Western Europe has never had parishes in South-East Asia. By the way his surname in Chashin (Чашин), but not Chasin (Часин). ~ Чръный человек (talk) 13:54, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

Hello.

First, the background is a recap of the situation. I agree the AROCWE never had churches in SE Asia, but it still happened shortly before the PESEA was created and I thought it was a good idea to talk about it. Moreover, the background you put before to replace mine had no reference whatsoever. I agree that the current "Background" section fits the article better (especially since you put references this time).

Second, the title of primacy of the primate of the Patriarchal Exarchate in South-East Asia is "Archbishop of Singapore and South-East Asia",(https://mospat.ru/en/2018/12/28/news168464/) it is not "Metropolitan of Singapore and South-East Asia". That Sergius was elevated to a the rank of Metropolitan does not change that the title of the primate (i.e. regardless if it is Sergius) is "Archbishop of Singapore and South-East Asia" Veverve (talk) 14:58, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

The fact is that for a long time the Russian Orthodox Church did not create any structures on the territory of South-East Asia. This was done in order not to aggravate relations with the "Ecumenical" Patriarchate of Constantinople, which claims control over the entire Orthodox Diaspora. However, after the latter's invasion of Ukraine, Russian Orthodox Church broke of Eucharistic communication with Constantinople, and decided that it is free from any previous agreements with Constantinople. For this reason, 2 patriarchal exarchates were created now, but not earlier. ~ Чръный человек (talk) 15:59, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

On 26 Feburary 2019 the Internal regulation of the Patriarchal Exarchate of South-East Asia was adopted: "The supreme ecclesiastical authority in the Exarchate belongs to the Synod of the Patriarchal Exarchate in Southeast Asia (hereinafter referred to as the “Synod of the Exarchate”), headed by the Metropolitan of Singapore and Southeast Asia, the Patriarchal Exarch of South-East Asia (hereinafter “Exarch”), and consisting of diocesan bishops of the dioceses of the Exarchate. The vicar bishop of the Diocese of the Exarchate may, at the invitation of the Exarch, participate in the meeting of the Synod with the right of an advisory vote" (original, translation). ~ Чръный человек (talk) 16:10, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

You are right, I will change what has to be changed. Veverve (talk) 16:22, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

@Чръный человек: Done. Thanks for your great help! Veverve (talk) 17:19, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

Maybe it will be useful for you: "Мы всегда с уважением относились к Константинопольскому патриархату и закрывали глаза на его претензии на попечение над всеми православными диаспорами, - сказал отец Александр. - Но теперь этот подход имеет мало общего с действительностью, уже нет никаких оснований Константинопольскому патриархату считать себя правомочным брать под свое духовное покровительство вообще всю диаспору, как в Западной Европе, так и в других частях мира. Теперь приняты новые решения о том, как будет окормляться русскоязычная паства и те люди, которые относят себя к членам Русской православной церкви. Церковная жизнь для русских общин в Западной Европе теперь будет развиваться по другому руслу." (We have always respected the Patriarchate of Constantinople and turned a blind eye to its claims to the custody of all Orthodox diasporas, " father Alexander said. "- But now this approach has little in common with reality, there is no reason for the Patriarchate of Constantinople to consider itself competent to take under its spiritual protection the entire Diaspora, both in Western Europe and in other parts of the world. Now new decisions have been made on how the Russian-speaking flock and those people who consider themselves members of the Russian Orthodox Church will be pastoraly cared. Church life for Russian communities in Western Europe will now develop in a different direction.) ~ Чръный человек (talk) 10:31, 4 March 2019 (UTC)

I have now added a small section about this in the articles of the PESEA, the DROCSP and the PEWE. Veverve (talk) 11:00, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
