message: It seems that part of this list is more Arabic than English. Shouldn't Khail be changed to Michael? --Valentinian 22:06, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I just noticed this question, & wished I had seen it sooner: a few weeks ago, I realized Khail = Michael, & have since added this to the relevant entries. Further, some of the Orthodox Patriarchs use the name Michael. So how to disambiguate? -- llywrch 22:56, 21 October 2005 (UTC)

message: I have set up the above page for the Roman Catholic Popes to cover the papacy as an organisation. Perhaps there could be an equivalent for the Coptic Papacy (and any other religious leaderships)

message: For the Coptic Papacy, this link will be extremely useful for some of the Coptic Popes. Take a look. ~ Troy 00:55, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

message: There is not a valid reference in this article. I put a citation needed banner on the top of the page. Please give valid sources for this information. As it stands now the whole article could be removed as unsourced. There must be a valid list available for Coptic Orthodox Popes in some book. No source equals fiction to a Wiki reader.

replies: text: There is probably a good deal of reliable lists and chronologies in books, but the same can't be said for online refs, so I agree that Amazon isn't a good reference. Having said that, there might be a few salvageable lists on the internet, specifically this one or in terms of the history of the popes, a collection like this might be useful. ~ Troy (talk) 02:48, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I didn't comment about Amazon. Basically, I need a source for St. Mark being the first Coptic Pope, plus it would only seem reasonable if the rest of the Popes were listed. Internet or hardcopy would be fine. Are you saying "There is probably a good deal of reliable...." but you cannot produce any of the documentation? The Coptic Church must have a list of Popes somewhere. If they don't, well... it be fiction. Don't y'all have an official book in English that list your Popes. There must be a sanctioned list of Coptic Popes in English out there somewhere. Jason3777 (talk) 06:13, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

text: One last thing, there are zero sources for this list - where did it come from? Should I take it as fact just because it is on Wikipedia and has no source in the entire article? I don't do that. Y'all need a reference on your Popes, there must be one somewhere. If not, I would hate to delete it (i.e. the whole article) - but I would consider it - see above - although I would much rather have a sourced article. Come on, one legitimate English source on the Coptic Popes. If no one can provide one, is it a legitimate article? Jason3777 (talk) 06:47, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

text: One more last thing from WP:BOP - "If no reliable, third-party sources can be found for an article topic, Wikipedia should not have an article on it." Jason3777 (talk) 07:04, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

message: I have a bit of trouble understanding what method was used to determine the dates of each Patriarch's years in office. Does the ordination of a competing patriarch (whether Arian or Chalcedonian) really make the original Pope "deposed"? The Cake 2 (talk) 23:58, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

message: What is the ground for listing almost all Coptic Orthodox popes as saints? Neither Meinardus (2002) nor Atiya (1991) do... The few ones who aren't listed as saints aren't mentioned to have been hideous popes and I can find that at least one of them is even mentioned in a synaxarium. This seems to have been a completely arbitrary choice by  (the user, not the actual pope lol). Leefeniaures audiendi audiat 17:17, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
