Is this template done? futurebird 14:46, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The leaders section needs to be expanded but I see no reason why it can't be used. I've already tossed it on the denomination pages. CJ 17:27, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What possible basis is there for the particular leaders mentioned? That part of this template seems wholly arbitrary. john k 00:32, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It is. I just never got around to fixing it. If someone else can it would be great. CJ 11:04, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

@Greenwoodtree: René Vilatte performed one documented (that I have read about) ordination for the predominantly black denomination but was not a member of that New York denomination. He operated his own separate denomination in Chicago under various shell names but the African Orthodox Church (AOC) was not connected with Vilatte in the 1920s, i.e. during his life. The AOC explicitly rejected any connections with all Old Catholic churches in the 1920s. All he did was a few rituals. –BoBoMisiu (talk) 21:43, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• OK, thanks for the info and the correction. --Greenwoodtree 12:03, 5 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
