Is Number Important? Is it 8, 9, (or 10, including Secretary)?[edit]

The article lede says there are 9 Cardinals. The first section says 8. The list of members lists 10 names (one is a non-Cardinal bishop-secretary). Overall, while each may be technically correct, is there some way to clarify how important the number is (and if so, what the best-descriptive number is)?

Copyright violations[edit]

This article has a lot of copyright violations; I have deleted one, from http://en.radiovaticana.va/news/2017/06/14/council_of_cardinals_updates_pope_on_state_of_vatican_reform/1319013 . From the bottom of this page: "All the contents on this site are copyrighted ©". There seem to be several paragraphs copied from different sources. The copyvio tool produces a list; there are 5 URLs with similarity > 50%. Best wishes, Pol098 (talk) 14:41, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Pol098: I've blanked the article and listed it at WP:CP for an investigation into the copyright violations. This is best practice if an investigation is needed, instead of just requesting revdel for one of the violations. Hut 8.5 08:57, 19 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support. A look at the article's sources, as well as Google and Google News, suggests that "Council of Cardinals" is the both the most common name and the official name. ModernDayTrilobite (talkcontribs) 19:42, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
