Michael: can you fix some nomenclature and then delete this query? I've added three very small entries for popes, originally Calixtus I-III, to discover that the listing has Callistus I-II, Callixtus III. I currently have them named as Callixtus I-III, but if you know what the standard name is now, they can be renamed as appropriate and redirects added from the other spellings - Malcolm Farmer |

Removed: Whether someone was a Pope or Antipope is mostly a matter of a historian's personal opinion. No, it is not a 'personal' opinion of a (one) historian. It is the opinion of the Roman Catholic Church about itself (which certainly involved consulting historians), discussed at great length in many individual cases by individual historians. In many cases there is no detailed discussion by historians because the person was very obviously an antipope. There are remarkably few difficult cases. This is not true, and should have been on the 'antipope' entry anyway; I'm going to run check and see if I need to delete it from there, too. --MichaelTinkler |
