Should the last sentence ("The entire decree....") have some citation? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.191.87.42 ( talk) 00:56, 17 March 2012 (UTC) reply

In terms of content, the bull is simply the format in which a decree of the pope appears. Any subject may be treated in a bull, and many were and are, including statutory decrees, episcopal appointments, dispensations, excommunications, Apostolic constitutions, canonizations, and convocations.

@ Elizium23: I removed the information that it was a bull, as the source you used to support it was permanently dead. By the way, I do not know what you are quoting here on the talk page. Veverve ( talk) 10:23, 16 November 2020 (UTC) reply

Veverve, that is a quote of papal bull. The link is obviously not dead because I had just visited it to cite it, it was up for me and for the visual editor, so it seems like an Internet problem on your end, but I do not wish to edit-war with you over this.

@ Elizium23: the source is dead at least on my end. Veverve ( talk) 16:59, 16 November 2020 (UTC) reply

Veverve, the correct link is in English and I do not know how it got switched to Spanish when I inserted the citation. Elizium23 ( talk) 17:05, 16 November 2020 (UTC) reply
