Comments

[edit]

The beginning of this list doesn't match the one found at e.g. www.jerusalem-patriarchate.org (although this too seems to contain errors.) Does anyone know of any high-quality source for a more complete list? --Valentinian 11:18, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

GREEK

[edit]

The Title must be : GREEK ORTHODOX PATRIARCH OF JERUSALEM.

So, pls correct it!

I don't think anybody doubts that Theofilos III is a Greek, but I thought that "Greek" wasn't part of his official title? We should also keep in mind that this list extends back almost to the time of Christ and the first persons on the list would have been referred to "only" as bishops or patriarchs. Does anybody know for sure what his official title is? Valentinian T / C 23:48, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]


The title is: Ελληνορθόδοξο Πατριαρχείο Ιεροσολύμων (GREEK ORTHODOX PATRIARCHATE OF JERUSALEM)


Αρχιγραμματέας: ο Αρχιεπίσκοπος Kωνσταντίνης Αρίσταρχος

Διεύθ.: Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of JERUSALEM, P.O. Box 19 632, Tel. & Fax: 282.048

Well, this page says otherwise and agrees with the original move and is the official page:[1]. We are sometimes forced to use an adjective in Wikipedia to describe various heads of religion - for example "The Roman Catholic Bishop of Orlando" but nobody within the religion uses the initial description.Student7 (talk) 12:25, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

PHOTOGRAPH

[edit]

The photograph of the reenactment of the Passion on the Via Dolorosa refers to a Roman Catholic practice, not a Greek Orthodox one. Perhaps it should be moved to the article Jerusalem in Christianity instead. -- Horatio325 1:22, 27 May 2008

Move

[edit]

The Greek Patriarch of Jerusalem has been moved here for the following reasons:

  1. He is the Bishop for the native population of the region;
  2. Other patriarchs represent either external churches or minority residents;
  3. There is already a disambiguation page noting the historical uses of the term;
  4. This article is what is normally meant by "Patriarch of Jerusalem', ie what a reader would normally expect to find under this title;
  5. Meats wiki MOS criteria and convention.

Well you can't move it the way you did, you've ruined the history of two pages. I've undone that. Furthermore I do not think this meets the criteria, since he is not the only patriarch. Adam Bishop (talk) 00:54, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is the contents of the talk page for the disambiguation page, which has now been moved to the undisambiguated title; this was a proper move as the undisambiguated title cannot be redirected to only one claimant per Wikipedia's fundamental neutrality policy.

Bishop of Jerusalem

[edit]

Because "Bishop of Jerusalem" redirects here, this page should at least mention the Anglican Bishop of Jerusalem, who legitimately bears that title. Tb (talk) 03:22, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good idea. Done! Ad.minster (talk) 00:30, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Greek is unambiguated?

[edit]

How on earth did "Patriarch of Jerusalem" come to disambiguate to the Greek Patriarch? There are active Latin and Armenian Patriarchates and congregations there. Hardly seems NPOV. --Jfruh (talk) 03:34, 8 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely and totally. I've changed the "Bishop of Jerusalem" and "Patriarch of Jerusalem" redirects to point here. To do otherwise is a violation if the NPOV policy. (Actually, the disambiguation page should be moved to the un-disambiguated title.) oknazevad (talk) 16:00, 12 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Patriarch of JerusalemPatriarch of Jerusalem (disambiguation) – Treat the Greek Orthodox Patriarch as the primary meaning. He is leader of what is, in the context of Israel and the Palestinian Territories, by far the largest church which has a Patriarch of Jerusalem. The only other church of comparable size, the Melkites, do not have a priest known by this title. His "demotion" from primary meaning appears to be based on a misunderstanding of WP:NPOV policy, since we recognize the head of the Roman Catholic church as the primary meaning of Pope, even though other churches use this title.

WikiProjects

[edit]

Regarding this revert by Johnbod of WikiProject Catholicism. Does this disambiguation page only pertain to WikiProject Christianity and WikiProject Eastern Orthodox Church, and if so why not also WikiProject Catholicism? Without a reply with arguments to this inquiry, I am going to assume that this was a mistake and try to reinstate it. PPEMES (talk) 11:33, 16 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

See Wikipedia_talk:Disambiguation_dos_and_don'ts#Project_banners_on_disam_talk_pages. Johnbod (talk) 12:32, 16 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. The way I regard the conclucion of that discussion, there is no reason not to include WikiProject Catholicism here above. It "is actually good [...] to show up in the article alerts". I therefore aim to reinstate it, should you not come up with new arguments against it. PPEMES (talk) 13:12, 16 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
