From Wikipedia:Catholic Encyclopedia topics:
While the text is public domain PLEASE do not simply dump text from the CE into Wikipedia without modification. The Encyclopedia was written to serve the Roman Catholic Church and reflect its doctrine, therefore nearly every article has a distinct POV and no article should be included word for word. Format the text according to the Wikipedia Manual of Style. Correct any spelling errors. Rephrase any awkward-sounding prose to improve clarity and flow. Remove 19th century references unless they really move the text along. Update the articles with new information. Any text describing the "current situation" as of 1908 or 1913 should be revised as necessary.

It is a big article. I'll work on pruning it down and Wikifying it as I can find time. --Marcusscotus1 02:22, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
I did a major overhaul of the article tonight. It really was in terrible shape. I will revise this and put it in modern language as well as add some more, um, "secular" insight to the article. This could also use some tie-ins with the major Irish saints: Patrick, Brigid, etc. Meg 04:12, 14 December 2005 (UTC)Meg
[edit] Revision please
I know very little about liturgical history and found this article full of technical terms that are not explained. It could be a great deal shorter, for instance, Celtic Easter could be part of the WP Easter article. I am interested in recent and current attempts to revive a celtic apporach to prayer and worship but found this article indigestible. ---Vernon White 18:50, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] translation, wikification, cleanup, editing, and cutting
wow, this article needs help! There's a lot of latin that isn't translated at all, a lot of bias, a lot of long, dense, paragraphs, it's not in wiki-style, the stuff from the catholic encyclopedia all has pov issues (as noted by others), it's got some REALLY long sections, lots of info could be better put in other articles (the stuff about easter fort example, which could also greatly benefit from an explanation of what these 19 and 80-something cycles MEAN) and in general, this article needs a lot of help, and I'm not the man for the job :( Yipely 02:35, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
I'm currently an anonymous user. I added numerous paragraph breaks, translated several Latin phrases, clarified wording in a few places, and cleaned up some punctuation. But yes, a lot remains to be done. Perhaps I'll log in and do some more later. All this took an hour or more.
