 * No need to apologise. This is one of the faster reviews I have had.


 * "Norwich, p 326: "The Council was to hold eighteen plenary sessions... the almost unanimous findings... Those who maintained otherwise were condemned and cursed – including the now defunct Pope Honorius."
 * Thanks, found it. I hate to be fuzzy, but condemned and cursed isn't quite the same as excommunicated—do you have another source to indicate a formal excommunication?-- Farang Rak Tham   (Talk) 11:17, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Actually it is. "Excommunicate" is a modern word. "Curse and condemn" was the form of words and it was known as anathematization. However, I take your point. Try Ostrogorsky, George, History of The Byzantine State. New Brunswick: Rutgers University Press. (1957) OCLC 422217218, p 114. "the Patriarchs Sergius, Pyrrhus and Cyrus and Pope Honorius, were excommunicated." Gog the Mild (talk) 11:30, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Okay, confirmed.-- Farang Rak Tham   (Talk) 12:01, 18 June 2018 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the comma.
 * I would prefer to keep "for". However, I have tweaked ALT1 to avoid two for's and to, I think, read a little more smoothly. What do you think? Gog the Mild (talk) 09:04, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
