Please revise to account for Cardinal Dolan's title.[edit]

Archbishop Timothy Dolan, to become Cardinal tomorrow, is listed in the FIU cardinals site as getting a different title. This is a result of Cardinal Edward Egan (Dolan's predecessor as archbishop of New York) still living; Egan is the first-ever archbishop EMERITUS of New York, and continues as cardinal priest of the title which is the subject of THIS wikipedia article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.63.16.82 (talk) 18:50, 17 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Name of article[edit]

I just moved the page from Saints John and Paul basilica al Celio, Rome to the current title, Basilica of Saints John and Paul on the Caelian Hill. The past page title was a strange mix of Italian and English, and as an English-speaker living in Rome I have never heard it referred to in that way. The addition of "Rome" is unnecessary if already modified by the name of the hill in Rome on which it is located. There was also the issue of the capitalization of "basilica." There were a few options for how the page might be renamed. I decided to go for the one that I did based on the title of this book. If there are other opinions about what this article ought to be named I think we should talk about it here. In general the naming of these Roman basilicas is inconsistent here on Wikipedia. — AJDS ^talk 08:59, 3 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Santi Giovanni e Paolo al Celio is an ancient basilica in Rome, located on the Caelian Hill. The first church was built there in 398, and a series of ancient Roman rooms with frescos were discovered under the nave during 19th-century excavations. The altar, in the background of this photograph, is built over a bath containing the remains of John and Paul, two Roman soldiers martyred under Emperor Julian in 362, and to whom the basilica is dedicated.
