Summarise main points in the lead

That includes what it is (a diocese), where it is (WA), it's remit (main towns), when it was founded, by whom and who currently leads it. Laurel Lodged (talk) 08:51, 8 March 2021 (UTC)

@Deus et lex: Please explain why you made changes to the lead that are contrary to the format set out above. Laurel Lodged (talk) 11:45, 8 March 2021 (UTC)

There is no "format" for these pages, they can include any helpful information (and dioceses are so diverse that there shouldn't be a set formula). When you start using terms like "ordinary" and so on (which are not used in Australia), and saying they were "erected" (buildings are erected, not dioceses), then it's clear that sort of formula doesn't work. Please either improve them in a way that is consistent with Australian usage and what actually happens, or leave it alone. Deus et lex (talk) 11:52, 8 March 2021 (UTC)

@Deus et lex: In the Anglican Communion, the ecclesial terms "ordinary" and "erected" are quite common. Has the "Anglican Church of Australia" diverged from its roots or just dumbed down? Laurel Lodged (talk) 12:04, 8 March 2021 (UTC)

I don't care if they're "quite common" elsewhere, they aren't commonly used, so they don't go in. Deus et lex (talk) 12:08, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
