Under Template:Infobox Christian leader#Template Data, it should be noted that setting the parameter Type will alter the colour of the heading. Colorboxes could be a useful way to illustrate this.
Current text: Type of leader (Priest, Pope, Cardinal, Antipope, or Coptic Pope). If the leader is none of these, leave blank to default to Bishop.
Suggested text: Type of leader (Priest, Pope, Cardinal, Antipope, or Coptic Pope). If the leader is none of these, leave blank to default to Bishop. The heading background will change to grey for Priest , yellowish for pope , pink for cardinal and violet for all other settings . OJH (talk) 15:10, 31 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
{{Infobox person}} comes with this explanation/guidance for the |parents=
parameter:
Names of parents; include only if they are independently notable or particularly relevant.
{{Infobox Christian leader}} does not include the same guidance about notability/relevance of the parents. Should the guidance for {{Infobox Christian leader}} be updated for the |parents=
parameter to match that in {{Infobox person}}? I think it should since the purpose of any infobox is to summarize key points (see MOS:INFOBOXPURPOSE) and including the names of non-notable/not-relevant parents seems, to me, not to be summarizing key points. I invite others to discuss here. Archer1234 (talk) 12:32, 1 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
Done
Hello,
For the Eastern Catholic bishops(or Eparchs as they are called), they lead Eparchies and not Dioceses even though they serve the same function. Can somebody add a parameter to the template which states that, eg. "| eparchy = ". Thank You....

Friends, need some direction, please. The Pope, the Archbishop of Canterbury, any many evangelical church leaders have personal websites.
I'm trying to include one for the Superintendent of Wesley Mission in Sydney, Stu Cameron. Having used the Christian leader infobox for the job, I'm afraid I'm having difficulty adding it in. (Feel free to edit if you can see what I have inadvertently messed up.)
Is it a case of having that field included here in the template? I imagine at the bottom of the infobox. Archer1234 or any other experienced editor here, would be very grateful for guidance here. MatthewDalhousie (talk) 06:16, 30 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

which appears like the second example to the right:

Edit requests to template-protected pages should only be used for edits that are either uncontroversial or supported by consensus. If the proposed edit might be controversial, discuss it on the protected page's talk page before using this template. Consider making changes first to the template's sandbox and test them thoroughly here before submitting an edit request. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request. When the request has been completed or denied, please add the |
Please could |previous_post=
be moved up the infobox to sit directly below |other_post=
? Its clearly being used on many articles as part of the religious career summary and so should be in the top bit of the the infobox. Its original intended purpose was an alternative to |profession=
with important pre-religious posts; this is reflected in its current position under the personal life section of the infobox. Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 12:36, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
