Talk:Canon (title)

message: TODO: Move information from the subheadings into the much-referenced individual articles, which exists as stubs right now. Secular Canons, Canons Regular and add a blurb and link for Canonesses. There is enough information for large articles on each of these topics. Specifically it would be difficult to maintain lists of canons and information on them in the main article without cluttering it.

replies: text: Actually, as the article says they do legally speaking "elect" the (arch)bishop but these days (i.e.post-reformation) only after the Crown has told them precisely who it is they are going to elect...  David Underdown 20:47, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

message: "Canon Residentiary": What is this job, please? Vernon White . . . Talk  16:20, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: ON eof the canons who is actually resident at a cathedral, at least in the sense of having a permanent role there.  They also normally have actually have a residence in the environs of the Cathedral.  At an English Cathedral will include the Dean, possibly the precentor (although this is sometimes a Minor Canon's role I think), the Archdeacon in whose Archdeaconry the Cathedral lies and may be a few others.  Slightly confusingly the minor canons may also be in residence, but are not Residentiary Canons in this sense as they are not fully part of the Cathedral Chapter.  The Residentiary Canons are distinct from the Honorary Canons/Prebendaries are senior diocesan clergy, but with roles elsewhere in the diocese.  It is the Reisdentiary Canons who carry out the day to day services of a cathedral, with one being "In Residence" at a time (normally for a fortnight or a month), who is usually responsible for, in particular, weekday services.  I'll give some thought as to how this might be clarified in the article.  David Underdown 20:43, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Another "Canon Residentiary" has cropped up on WP: John Rogers (divine).  Presumably there are and were quite a lot of notable people with this job description. Vernon White . . . Talk  23:35, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

message: In the Episcopal Church, the Canon to the Ordinary is a priest who assists a diocesan bishop, often taking care of personnel matters, churches who currently don't have a priest, and other duties. Does anyone have a source we can include for that? 150.243.64.15 (talk) 17:54, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

message: Isn't the most common usage of Canon in the Anglican communion (or at least the Episc. Church of the USA) the main priest assigned to assist the dean of a cathedral?

message: "Regulary" is used in the lede paragraph - but does not appear to be a word in any dictionary I can find.  Do you mean regularly? or is this some arcane specialist word? - in which case it should be defined. - Arjayay (talk) 18:08, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

message: Perhaps someone with knowledge could add a section on how to address a canon? I was looking up how to talk to a Catholic canon, do I say "hello Father" or "Hello Canon" for a Roman Catholic canon priest. I think this would be a useful and relevant section for this page. 2A00:23C8:A3E:F201:2271:EDB2:3DFD:41EF (talk) 17:41, 29 October 2023 (UTC)
