Cardinal-nephew edit

I would appreciate comments of any kind on this article. However, the main issue is the question of the list of cardinal-nephews. I believe that it should not be split into a separate article because the history and evolution of the institution is deeply tied to the list itself and visa-versa. For example, to be able to see visually the continuity of the institution between successive pontiffs and the relevance of the number of cardinal-nephews relative to the immediate predecessors and successors of a given pope. I would like to get some feedback on the presentation of this part of the article in particular, regarding whether it should be moved into a separate article, and (if not, as I would prefer), how it can be improved.

Comment Personally I think that the list should be moved to a new article. After all the Cardinal nephew article should be about what a cardinal nephew is and perhaps a brief history of the most significant examples etc. Giving the long length of the list, I do think a list of Cardinal nephews would be more appropriate, especially to get both articles to FA criteria. However if you think it should be kept in the article then my approach would be to incorporate some, or as much as possible into some form of prose. IMO I do not think moving the list of cardinals would affect the continuity - as readers could simply click on the article link to the list to see the long continuation of cardinals.

Having slept on it, I've thought about compressing the list so that readers could click on each century to enlarge it. I'll implement that and see if it addresses your concerns. Savidan 16:03, 16 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have split the list. Savidan 19:09, 16 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
