A fact from Christianity in Asia appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know? column on 9 December 2007.

[edit] Papal envoys

We seem to have a dispute on whether to include the names of the companions of the papal envoy, Lawrence of Portugal. PHG says one thing, citing Roux.[1] Aramgar says another, citing Rachewiltz.[2] I don't currently have access to either source, but my recommendation is that we remove the disputed information. It's not that useful to this particular article, and is of a level of detail that isn't needed. Please take the dispute to Talk:Lawrence of Portugal and work it out there, not here. --El on ka 07:46, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Merge

This article, Christianity in Asia was created by PHG (talk · contribs) on December 4, 2007.
Another article, Roman Catholicism in Asia was also created by PHG, on February 2, 2008

Though I think the overall topic is definitely worthy of an article, upon review, the articles appear to be near duplicates of each other. I therefore recommend that "Roman Catholicism in Asia" be merged into "Christianity in Asia", and the old title can be setup as a redirect. Anyone have an opinion on this? --El on ka 06:09, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] China

I was surprised to see that this article does not yet have a section for Christianity in China. I've added it as a "seealso" for now, but we should definitely include a summary section on it. --El on ka 06:23, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
