@Surtsicna: I need a third QPQ (there are two). I'm also having trouble finding the passage in Hamilton that verifies this from your link. Is it possibly the p267 ref? Is it left to assume that there was Adam, there was John, and then there were titular bishops? Otherwise the pages are new and long enough.

Hi, Sammi Brie. I counted two out of the three articles at the columbine nomination (the third I had already used up) as two QPQs. Sorry, I have no idea what I meant by "page 120". I had changed hooks quite a bit. Hamilton is quite explicit so there is no need to assume. See pages 84 (Banyas conquered, no successor to John appointed), 397 (succession of the resident bishops), and of course 266-267 for the titular bishops.

It's a bit of a compilation that requires a rat race search of Hamilton, but it seems to check out. We have Adam, we have John, and then we have a bunch of titular bishops. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 18:20, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
