"...of His Holiness the Pope, which was obtained on 11 April following."

Pope links to Pope John Paul II, should this link to Benedict XVI? or does "11 April following mean 11 April 1988?, which then would be correct to link to Pope John Paul II, but should say "...of His Holiness the Pope John Paul II, which was obtained on 11 April following."--Stmoose 06:19, 16 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Fra?

I have often seen the prenominal honorific Fra used in the ecclesiastical context, but I have never found an actual definition of the title. Wikipedia does not have an article on this, and since I was under the impression that Fra Andrew Bertie was not actually a priest, I am left wondering what the title could mean. It appears to be a corruption or variant of Fray or Fraile, but even were that the case I think an etymological explanation is in order. Can anyone shed any light on this?

I suspect the correct spelling is Frà. Wikipedia really should have a proper article on this term. __meco (talk) 17:16, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
