Talk:World Youth Day 2005
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is inflamatory:
"The church is recommending that attractive boys wear chastity belts while visiting the pope to avoid any further church scandals."
It is not official and should be removed.
I support the removal by User: 192.210.10.253. That was vandalism by User: 24.68.10.172, who has also vandalized the 2005 Honshu Coast Quake page. -- PFHLai 18:06, 2005 August 16 (UTC)
You don't need to discuss removing obvious vandalism. Just do it. Prohibit 20:38:40, 2005-08-17 (UTC)
Sorry -- was my first ever Wikipedia post/modification/whatever-you-want-to-call-it. Just wanted to be certain.
This is a clear case of "if it isn't true, it should be" IMO :D 194.216.55.225

[edit] Indulgence
Somebody removed the Indulgence stuff, claiming that there were no link with the WYD. Actually, I took it from the French article, where it is stated in the quotation that there were special indulgence for the WYD pilgrims. If somebody can fix it (and correct my previous mistake), thanks.--Revas 22:11, 16 August 2005 (UTC) (oops, does the sentence I wrote means something in English ? I just don't know).
[edit] Juventutem
This is actually an important event that many Wikipedians care about, so whoever removed it was wrong to do so. You can read more about it here:

Also, I would add that, after I had added that part somebody else linked to the Mass. So there is interest in it. Furthermore, as mentioned in the statement, this group is receiving support from several members of the Church hierarchy. So it worth at least a couple of sentences to mention it.
- I agree it deserves mention on WP, but is their inclusion in this WYD noteworthy? — ceejayoz ★ 14:37, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
Yes, their inclusion is noteworthy to this story, because it is a first time event. Look at the associated website and see the names of the hierarchs who will be offering Mass and meeting w/them. It would be difficult not to see this as a stand out of this year's event.
[edit] Brother Roger's Death
I'm not sure if this is appropriate, but I thought as a current event that Brother Roger's recent and tragic death should be included in the write up of the article. It certainly marred the beginning of World Youth Day. shaile 18:03, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
I just got mail from a friend in the WYD and another about the death of Brother Roger from the same maillist and I do think he was killed by someone who had lose a relative in the aircraft crash in Venezuela. I noticed it while watching news of a french channel and it claimed that some people in the airplane were going to WYD... I'm not sure about if his death has anything to do with the craft, may be... --Henriquevicente 21:16, August 18, 2005 (UTC)Henrique Vicente
[edit] Attending groups error(?)
After making a few changes to the page, I now see a repeating 'edit' option at the end of the 'Attending groups' section--does it appear on other browers, too? I am not sure how to fix this. GinaDana 22:45, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
- It's caused by the large number of floated images. I've turned off section edit links for the page until someone comes up with a better solution. — ceejayoz ★ 03:42, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] this is not an article for an encyclopedia

- Why not? Sporki 00:01, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
do you want such an article for every event 2005 20009 -......?
crazy and not of any interest--Nicetobe 20:21, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
- This article is necessary. We articles for each of the Olympic games too. And each of the World Cups, Super Bowls, etc... All these individual events have enough information about them to have individual articles. joturner 21:09, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
I think alle these articles should be summarized and shouldn't remain as individual articles.--Nicetobe 11:44, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
