I converted all instances of "Mission Santa Bárbara" to "Mission Santa Barbara" because the mission's own website generally uses the spelling without the acute accent. If we wanted to use the Spanish spelling it would have to be "Misión Santa Bárbara" anyway, so "Mission Santa Bárbara" is just plain inconsistent. --Angr/tɔk tə mi 11:56, 4 September 2005 (UTC)
- Good: thanks. I've never seen it spelled with the acute accent myself; it's certainly not done that way locally. Antandrus (talk) 15:04, 4 September 2005 (UTC)

In my opinion is the address 34°26′02″N, 119°43′04″W slightly wrong; at least I couldn't find the church with this address. But I found by trial and error: 34°26′18″N, 119°42′47″W —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.193.12.17 (talk) 16:24, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Current function and affiliation of Old Mission Santa Barbara
The Wikipedia states that Mission Santa Barbara is currently a parish church affiliated with the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. Correct, but incomplete. It also contains a museum,a gift shop, a Franciscan Friary and a retreat house. The Mission is owned by the Franciscan Province of Santa Barbara which is geographically much larger the Los Angeles Archdiocese. The parish actually rents the church from the Franciscans. It would be nice to include SOME of this, although I'm not clear about how I'd edit it (oh, I work for the Old Mission Santa Barbara.)72.214.244.133 (talk) 23:29, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
