Title of the Master of the Temple

I've reverted edits suggesting that the Master of the Temple is styled "The Reverend and Valiant" because it is, unfortunately, not true. See the official website and the regular service sheet Chelseaboy 09:57, 20 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It seems that the present Master does, in fact, claim this title, although he says he "doesn't use it very often" - see an interview with him here. Chelseaboy 13:59, 3 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The official site of the Middle Temple says that the style of the Master of the Temple is the Reverend and Valiant; see [1] (at the bottom). The current Master has used his title in interviews talking about his book about the Da Vinci code (see [2] for instance). Throwawayhack 10:20, 5 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Layout

The images are overwhelming the lead of the article; they need to be restructured. I get approximately 1 inch of text - no more than four words a line - down the middle until the infobox ends. Putting them all in the right hand column below the infobox would be a lot better than putting them on the left. GRBerry 17:34, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Royal Peculiar?

This page describes the church as a Royal Peculiar, but the Royal Peculiar page itself describes it as "extra-diocesan, and therefore peculiars, but not Royal." XofWiki (talk) 16:49, 27 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Basis for round design

Previously, this article said that Temple Church's round design was based on the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. However, on the Dome of the Rock Wikipedia page, the following is stated, "The Crusaders captured Jerusalem in 1099 and the Dome of the Rock was given to the Augustinians, who turned it into a church while the Al-Aqsa Mosque became a royal palace. The Knights Templar, who believed the Dome of the Rock was the site of the Temple of Solomon, later set up their headquarters in the Al-Aqsa Mosque adjacent to the Dome for much of the 12th century. The "Templum Domini", as they called the Dome of the Rock, featured on the official seals of the Order's Grand Masters (such as Everard des Barres and Renaud de Vichiers), and soon became the architectural model for Round Templar churches across Europe." Diarmaid MacCulloch also states in his series 'A History of Christianity' that the Knights Templar based the design of Church on the design of the Dome of the Rock, based on a simple mistake in thinking the Dome of the Rock was as mentioned above. I have therefore amended this article to correct this inaccuracy. It should be noted that Temple Church's website also states that the round design is based on the church of the Holy Sepulchre - to this I would say that there should be an effort to get the facts across consistently.
