[edit] Proposed Merger

The Prince Bishops article is rather bare, and I can't see a reason why we should need to have a separate article from this one (with fewer links and details). It also gives unnecessary confusion between Prince Bishop and Prince Bishops

[edit] Vandalism

Where on earth has the list of bishops gone? There's a reference to an article which apparently doesn't exist and never has... whoa, and we have a horribly messy edit history too. Ugh. Time to fix this. Shimgray | talk | 17:54, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

And looking at other articles, a lot of old bishoprics have been inexplicably vandalised like this... gah. Lots of cleanup. Shimgray | talk | 17:57, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] New arms, based on Fox-Davies' drawing

I've created this image, which I'll leave up to someone paying attention to these articles, to include in this article. It is based on a drawing accompanying an article by the venerable Fox-Davies on ecclesiastical heraldry, though I had no blazon to work to. Greentubing 08:14, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Recent change

I deleted the sentence that said that the Bishop of Durham is the senior-most bishop of the province of York, as it would seem to make more sense that the Archbishop of York would be. I know how these things work, though, and I realize that there may be some obscure technical reason why this might not be the case. If I'm wrong, feel free to correct me.
