I notice that Metr. Theodosius is listed as Abp. Sylvester's successor as "Bishop of Montreal". Metr. Theodosius, I believe was the administrator, and as Archbishop of Canada, Abp. Seraphim was his successor, with the title of Abp. of Ottawa. I don't know how that should be shown in the succession blocks other than show a blank for the succession in Montreal, as I think, no successor was made there, but that would lead to a break of succession in Canada. The same situation may appear in the Abp. Seraphim's predecessor in his succession block. Wsk 17:18, May 29, 2008 (UTC)

You bring up some good points. There are two sections here ("ARCHBISHOP SYLVESTER (Haruns), 1963 – 1981" and "1981 – 1989") and a listing here on the Canadian Archdiocese site which back you up in terms of Metr. Theodosius being the administrator. As to the succession boxes, I think it would be appropriate to list the predecessors and successors of the responsibility, so that an OrthodoxWiki user can navigate the line of things more easily. I do think that the appropriate title should be used for each person, though. Would that be too confusing? I think we already do something similar when the see changes from a bishopric to a metropolitanate or when the seat of a see moves to another city. I think that in the succession box for Metr. Theodosius under "Locum tenens of Ottawa and Canada (OCA)" the predecessor should be Abp. Sylvester. —magda (talk) 19:19, May 29, 2008 (UTC)
