- I have appreciated your thoughtful editing on the International Churches of Christ page. I am a recent editor and have tried to contribute to improving the article by a careful consideration of WP policies and how they apply, in particular, to the third paragraph in the Lead. The topic of the recent court cases in the Lead and the body of the article has been something that both you and I have commented about on the Talk page. The administrator, Cordless Larry, who has taken a keen interest in policing the article has taken the position that I have a conflict of interest because I am a member of a church congregation that has a relationship with the ICOC even though I have no financial relationship with the church as explained in my response to his COI claim. I dispute his COI position, but would like to continue having input to improve the article until my status is cleared up. I noticed that the administrator noted that your efforts to Request for Comments about the Singapore court case was unofficial because your post failed to follow the specific WP policies on RfC. I am wondering about entering on the Talk page an appropriate RfC that is compliant with WP policies about the court cases specifically. You appear to be more experienced than I on the RfC process, so I’m wondering if you could assist me in making an appropriate RfC about the recent court cases that complies with WP policies so that a consensus on this question among other editors could be attempted?

- Thanks for your note. I honestly think it's a bit early for an RfC on the issue of the court cases. There is a lot more cleanup that needs to be done first on the article as a whole. Once we do that we may find that it's a lot easier to reach consensus on the lawsuits, particularly in the lede. Also, for the record, I've never done an actual RfC.

- Looks like now might be a good time for the RfC. Feel free to set one up and I'll participate. Nowa (talk) 12:17, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi Nowa, The source you just added in support of the material you added to the article, stating that a lawsuit had been refiled in the California Superior court, doesn't mention the International Churches of Christ but instead mentions the First Apostolic Church in Maryville. Is there something I'm missing? TarnishedPathtalk 01:09, 16 December 2024 (UTC)
- Forget my above question, it looks like someone else added that reference previously and the reference you added is the only one I should be concerned with. TarnishedPathtalk 01:23, 16 December 2024 (UTC)
