I took out the bit "he preached Crusade in Southern Germany." This is vague. Preached it when? Which crusade? What exactly did he say about it. Hopefully somebody who knows a bit more can fill this in.

Well, you didn't need to take it out. 'Preaching crusade' is usually a recognised thing; people get commissioned to preach crusade. Which crusade? Certainly anachronistic as a question - I believe the numbering of crusades goes back no further than Gibbon. If you need more details, you should ask for them. Only unreliably sourced material needs to be cut. Charles Matthews 19:10, 3 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Two Johannes Teutonicus?[edit]

The lack of decent references makes it hard to verify this article. In particular, I can't tell if is is the same person as the famous "Johannes Teutonicus", the great canon jurist of Bologna, author of the Glossa Ordinaria, who died in 1245. In my research on Johannes Teutonicus (the canonist) I haven't seen him referenced as Wildenhausen, or being associated with Dominicans, or holding bishoprics or preaching crusades (on the other hand, articles on Johannes Teutonicus don't give much personal details at all). I know nothing about the Dominican Wildenhausen fellow covered in the article. Since there is mention of Bologna in the article, maybe they're the same person? Or perhaps an editor has confused two different persons with the appelation "Johannes Teutonicus"? Walrasiad (talk) 08:46, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There are definitely two Johannes Teutonicus, see de:Johannes Teutonicus Zemeke for the glossarist. --FordPrefect42 (talk) 21:58, 26 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bishop of Đakovo[edit]

It is anachronistic to refer to John as "Bishop of Đakovo". He was Bishop of Bosnia from 1233 to ca. 1237, but the town of Đakovo was only founded in 1239, and the Bishop's see was only transferred to Đakovo in 1246, see [1]. I am correcting this mistake. --FordPrefect42 (talk) 21:58, 26 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You might be correct, but the sources in English use that title. The use of a region for the name of a diocese is not normal in Catholic usage. I am reverting your correction until I can research this further. I appreciate your pointing this out. Daniel the Monk (talk) 04:02, 27 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The use of Đakovo in the title is indeed anachronistic, and it's confusing today because it means something else other than the contemporaneous Diocese of Bosnia. That article (now) has an explanation of some of these various intricacies, and that's the one that should be linked. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 16:59, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Literally no reference material?[edit]

An interesting story but there is no basis for any of this. There are no references. The single reference is broken. Normally this entire article would be deleted for this reason alone. Probably someone should provide verifiable reference material. Added no source material template. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.161.21.11 (talk) 06:37, 14 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
