Reverted[edit]

I've reverted your changes in Q58214615. All the non-English articles are a translation of that article about the rise of the church, and not that article about the evangelical political parties. Please provide a very strong reason not to link to Q58214615. Thanks. --Bageense(fala) 14:26, 5 November 2020 (UTC)

Bageense yes sadly the article was renamed without reaching to any kind of consensus and lost most of its meaning, which was the political influence of the Evangelical churchers, not "their rise" with a very questionable title also which sounds ridiculous in my opinion. However as the author of the original text whose intention was unequivocally the political involvement I'm pretty sure the translation to the other languages were intended to be for that meaning and not for the current meaning that seems to be about its history and "rise". --Dereck Camacho (talk) 16:30, 5 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I think that what matters most is the fact that the articles in other languages were a translation of the one in English, regardless of the title. Anyway, the name in Portuguese also changed to the "rise", and the Spanish and Italian wikis could follow the example.
I came here just to tell you why I reverted your edits, since I could not write an edit summary. Sorry if my message seemed intrusive. --Bageense(fala) 17:47, 5 November 2020 (UTC)
Bageense I understand, however except for the Portuguese article the Spanish and Italian articles havn't change their titles yet and thus are more accurate to the political article (the one more recently made) than the current article. I think at least in those two case the linkage should be to the new one. --Dereck Camacho (talk) 17:55, 5 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
(fala) so do you agree that in Spanish and Italian the articles correspond to English' "Evangelical political parties in Latin America" and not to the terrible missnamed "Rise of the Evangelicals in Latin America"? --Dereck Camacho (talk) 19:30, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
