Sui iuris and sui juris

No one controls the article at Sui iuris. You may edit it as well as anyone else.

The two different spellings should not matter. The original legal concept underlying the phrase is the same, but different histories have developed in different jurisdictions. The purpose of a Wikipedia article is to document, for the general reader, what reliable sources say about the subject. How the article is organized is pretty much up to all Wikipedia editors, working in collaboration. If you think the Roman Catholic canon law aspects of the article have too much prominence, make a suggestion on the talk page to see if other editors agree with you. Just remember to try to ground your arguments in what reliable secondary sources have to say. Speaking out of your own authority, however much knowledge and authority you have in the real world, just does not work in Wikipedia.

Nothing prevents you from developing proposed content in a userspace draft, where you can show what you'd like to say and get comments before changing the article. Just remember to follow the policies at WP:COPYWITHIN if you're going to paste the existing article into your workspace as a starting point. (But for this sort of case, you do not want to submit to "articles for creation" - they will just decline your article because the article on the topic already exists.) You can link to your workspace from the talk page at Talk:Sui iuris to let other editors see what you're proposing. For small changes, of course, you could just make them and, if someone objects, engage in discussion on the talk page.

Wikipedia is very much about working in collaboration with other editors. Even if you think they are RC conspirators, please keep that to yourself and simply treat them as good-faith editors as well as you can. — jmcgnh^{(talk) (contribs)} 23:00, 9 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
