I've done some work on the Roman Catholic part: Black is no longer allowed on Good Friday (it's no longer included in the "General Instruction for the Roman Missal" or the "Ordo"). I've also added information about the use of blue and a special case in the Philippines. - Cnyborg 22:13, 11 Jul 2004 (UTC)
I suggest removing mention of purple from the Roman Catholic section of this article. The documents all mention violet, which is technically a different color. (In Latin, purpureus is not violaceus.) Rwflammang 01:19, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
I'd like to see the Symbolism column removed from the table of Roman Catholic colors. There is no source for it, and I do not think that an authoritative source exists for it. The whole column is original research at best, and nonsense at worst. Rwflammang (talk) 21:06, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
The Roman Catholic section would be more useful if the table was in the same format as the Anglican table, comparing the liturgical colors of the Ordinary and Extraordinary Rites. Dgf32 (talk) 00:58, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
An editor seems to want to change the section on Roman Catholics to "Catholics" or "Latin Rite Catholics", which is incorrect. The information given is specifically about the Roman Rite, and not about the other Latin Rites. I understand the usual POV-spinning in which only those in communion with the pope get to be Catholic, and it's out-of-place in general on Wikipedia, but here it's especially out of place, because the section is, in fact, only about the Roman Rite.

I undid the additions i made to the Coptic Liturgical colours after realising the sources really need to be checked. The Cake 2 (talk) 05:28, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
In Moscow Patriarchat Inside Russia (instead of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia), red colour is used during the Paschal season. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lenmetro (talk • contribs) 13:22, 19 March 2013 (UTC)
Is it possible to find the history of why liturgical colors exist? 24.1.8.85 (talk) 15:16, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
Some parts of the article, the Anglicanism and Protestants sections in particular, may require a more general perspective or maybe we should be using examples from different national churches. The Protestant section in particular is very focused on U.S. denominations; we list three American Lutheran denominations, which seems an undue focus. We could bring in the example of the Church of Sweden perhaps? It would be good if an editor from a non-English speaking country could add information about the practice of liturgical colours in their country. -- Hazhk (talk) 17:02, 22 October 2015 (UTC)
Just to clarify with everyone, Good Friday is a day of deepest mourning. It seems that black should be used. I know they use black and violet at my Catholic Church. 74.90.110.7 (talk) 04:22, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
Sorry!!!!!!!
I made a mistake editing the section on black vestments. Now, almost all of the article has the black bar on the side. If someone can look and try to edit it back properly, that would be great. I tried fixing it but it won't go. Thanks 74.90.110.7 (talk) 04:30, 29 March 2016 (UTC)74.90.110.7
