Redundancy

[edit]

Currently we have three related articles. This one, which is about the modern archdiocese and its medieval predecessor. Prince-Bishopric of Freising, which is only about the secular territory of the bishops. And Bishops of Freising and Archbishops of Munich and Freising, which is a list of bishops, archbishops and prince-bishops. I removed the list of bishops from this article because it was redundant, but I equally could have just redirected the list article here. I didn't because we have a separate article on the principality and because the list article had more redlinks. We have almost no information about the history of the diocese. If we are going with a setup like this—and our coverage of German bishoprics is not consistent and has huge gaps—we should probably have a separate article on the diocese before it was raised to an archdiocese and moved to Munich, i.e. an article at Diocese of Freising (currently a redirect here). I also think the list article should be moved so that the word "list" is in the title. Srnec (talk) 21:58, 16 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
