Talk:Holy Synod of Milan

Update needed
This article is in serious need of being updated, with the help of someone who has dates, knowledge of precise facts, and sources for the recent events leading up to the demise of the former Milan Synod. Within the last two years, Archbishop Luca of Torcello has gone into retirement. Within the last 18 months, communion has been severed with the four bishops of the former North American branch of the Milan Synod (Metropolitan John of New York, Archbishop Hilarion of Austin, Bishop Phanourios of Lincoln, and Bishop Pavlos of Maspeth, the last of whom has since died); Bishop Ildefonso of Seville and Archbishop Onuphry of Bergamo have left and joined with another bishop to form a new Western European synod; Bishop Pablo of Italica has left to join the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia, it is unclear what has happened to Archbishop Boris of Germany but he has been removed from the Milan Synod's websites, and Archbishop Abundius of Como has resigned his episcopal rank.

This means that the Synod of Milan has essentially ceased to exist. There is only one bishop left (Metropolitan Evloghios), who has care for a parish and a handful of clergy in Italy, with two isolated priests in the UK who have no parishes. Recent photographs show Metropolitan Evloghios serving not as a bishop but as a simple priest. Whatever else this tiny remnant might be, it cannot be called a synod by any commonly understood definition of the word, and the article should be updated to reflect this.(Bertelin (talk) 09:17, 5 July 2012 (UTC))

Stale COI tag
The WP:COI tag on this article is very stale. The user has not edited here in 5 years. There is no active discussion (indeed, no discussion of any kind) about the conflict here on the talk page. I will remove the tag shortly, unless objections are presented here. Elizium23 (talk) 00:16, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
