Talk:List of Catholic archdioceses
Appearance
Diocese of Rome
[edit]Rome is not an archdiocese. It is a metropolitan, but only carries the rank of diocese. (Hence the Pope is called Bishop of Rome - not Archbishop of Rome.)
- It is neither a regular diocese, an archdiocese or a metropolitan archdiocese. Gcatolic.com lists it as a "Papal See".
- By the way, there is no "metropolitan diocese", only metropolitan archdioceses. See Gcatolic.com for a list of all different kinds of diocese existing.

- It is the Holy See, I believe. john k (talk) 01:33, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
China
[edit]The Vatican only recognizes Taiwan as the government of China, instead of Beijing, so when we mention "China" we should clarify which one we're talking about. --Lou Crazy 00:22, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
Name Change
[edit]As the main article has change to Catholic Church, this article ought to agree with it. I propose a rename to Catholic Archdioceses.--EastmeetsWest (talk) 21:46, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
