Talk:Archbishop Iakovos of America

Untitled
http://www.orthodoxwiki.org/Iakovos_%28Coucouzis%29_of_America I am not sure of the liscensing restrictions of Orthodox Wiki, however it states that those pictures are in the public domain and, granted, there might be a POV issue but I think it could be some help. gren 02:20, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Archbishop Iakovos of America → Iakovos (Koukouzis) — To start removing the honours of religious officials that are not the head of a given denomination. As noted in WP:NCP additional qualifiers (such as "King", "Saint", "Dr.") should not be used. WP:NCWC permits titular prefixes for Eastern Orthodox Metropolitans, Archbishops and Bishops, which is obviously in conflict with WP:NCP. the issue is currently being resolved here, and currently no opposition exists with removing the prefixes so long as the individual is not the head of an autocephalous church. The religious name is first, followed by the family name in brackets. It appears to be the common practice, although I have no personal opinion on the matter and am open to suggestions. My focus is the removal of the titular prefixes. Labattblueboy (talk) 05:38, 3 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Archbishop Michael of America → Michael (Konstantinides)
 * Archbishop Demetrios of America → Demetrios (Trakatellis)
 * Archbishop Spyridon of America → Spyridon (Papageorge)
 * Archbishop Yurij (Kalistchuk) → Yurij (Kalistchuk)
 * Archbishop Jovan VI of Ohrid → Jovan VI of Ohrid
 * Metropolitan Michael Khoroshy → Michael (Khoroshy)
 * Metropolitan Wasyly → Wasyly (Fedak)
 * Archbishop Damaskinos of Jaffa → Damaskinos of Jaffa
 * Metropolitan Constantine → Theodore (Buggan)
 * Metropolitan Ilarion (Ivan Ohienko) → Ilarion (Ivan Ohienko)
 * Metropolitan John (Stinka) → John (Stinka)
 * Metropolitan Mykhayil → Mykhayil (Champion)
 * Metropolitan Mefodiy (Kudryakov) → Mefodiy (Kudryakov)
 * Metropolitan Vasyl (Lypkivsky) → Vasyl (Lypkivsky)
 * Oppose In what sense is this bizarre formula "the common practice"? Certainly not WP rules. We should use Michael Konstantinides or Michael Konstantinides (bishop) etc. Johnbod (talk) 14:55, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
 * As odd as it sounds, I've found that the suggested naming formula is the common disambiguation method for eastern religious offcials, although you are entirely correct that no guidelines exist for the naming method. This being said, I would not be necessarily opposed to your suggested method, I just think it should be consistent.--Labattblueboy (talk) 16:07, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose and closing (casting vote): the last comment was 16 days ago. Likely far more people know Archbishop Michael of America by that he is an archbishop than know his birth surname, and similarly with the other names. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 16:57, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
