Exeptions
editThe bulk of the first section does not talk about canon law but instead talks about those who failed to follow it by means of wealth or power. This material should be removed or given its own section. Ian Hampson, Wales, February 2019 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.254.201.36 (talk • contribs) 08:12, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
Greek Church
edit"Greek Church" can refer to a grouping of Byzantine-rite Churches, but in this case, because each one is being individually named, "Greek Church" referred specifically to the Greek Byzantine Catholic Church of Greece. Elizium23 (talk) 02:21, 14 December 2019 (UTC)
Redundant List Section
editThere is a Redundant List Section, This Should be Under the Sub Article Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches.

On the surface at least, it seems we have two articles about the same thing: Canon (canon law) and Canon law. It looks like an obvious WP:FORK violation. Is there a convincing reason not to merge them? --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 23:35, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
