Oxford High School[edit]

Oxford High School (Oxford) is a girls' school. So I think that this may well be an error, and that Alan Hopes may well have attended another school in Oxford before his family moved to north London. --Coyets 11:06, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've changed it to City_of_Oxford_High_School_for_Boys, as this recent official biography does still mention "Oxford High School": http://www.catholicchurch.org.uk/Home/Featured/Pope-Francis-Appoints-New-Bishop-of-East-Anglia/Biography 92.29.250.42 (talk) 12:53, 11 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Episcopal Ordination[edit]

At 58, given that at the time he was single (and thus eligible to be ordained to the Roman Catholic episcopate under canon law), he was appointed... This is a crazy way of putting it. He still is single (of course), and the fact that he was then would have been the most trivial of grounds for making him a bishop. — Preceding unsigned comment added by C0pernicus (talk • contribs) 14:13, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

For clarity - this appears to have been fixed now, by the commenter themselves. 92.29.250.42 (talk) 13:15, 11 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
