Talk:John Taylor (bishop of Winchester)

Discussion
Episcopal symbols

When appointed to the bishopric of Winchester he declared in the Diocesan Magazine that he would not wear a mitre but would have it carried in front of him on a cushion in procession. This was an attempt to disassociate what he thouhgt to be the symbol of the office from the office holder. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Orthopraxis (talk • contribs) 14:27, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

"Rose window"

A perusal of these writings brings out Taylor's ecclesiology and his views on liturgy. He maintains that Christ did not intend to found a church and that the new rites of both Rome and the C of E were the work of the Holy Spirit. To say so is not to be polemical, merely fairly to represent what he actually said.Orthopraxis (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 22:20, 24 February 2010 (UTC).

Can I have an extract or quote or reference to an edition of Rosewindow to demonstrate that? --TonyinJersey (talk) 13:37, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

Article title
Some Googling to determine how the fellow was/is referred to:
 * John Taylor: ~10,400
 * John V Taylor: ~3220
 * John Vernon Taylor: ~1,840

These results strongly suggest that "John Taylor" was his common name — obviously we know he's published as "John V. Taylor", but it would seem that is merely for disambiguation. Our own disambiguation guidelines (WP:BISHOP) would prescribe the title John Taylor (bishop), but there are several bishops named John Taylor, so we use his most significant see: John Taylor (bishop of Winchester) DBD 09:25, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
