 == Improving this article == 

 The article as it stands is a muddle. I have removed statements from the section ""Origin"" which do not correspond to it; but there are far more major defects. The fundamental problem is that there is no current agreement among academics as to the contents of Arius' teaching.  Rowan Williams goes as far stating that Arianism is an invention of Athanasius (Arius page to be supplied later)  I am not clear as to how the article should be reworked, but I sense that its revision should be part of a project which includes the other two main articles Arius and Arian Controversy.  It is hardly worth trying to tidy up the missing citation references until the overall structure of the article has been rethought.   "
