Here is a quick table showing how the data has expanded over time:
Year | Month | Bishops | Months from previous |
---|---|---|---|
2002 | Jun | 5,000 | |
2002 | Nov | 10,000 | 5 |
2003 | Oct | 15,000 | 11 |
2006 | Sep | 20,000 | 35 |
2009 | Jan | 25,000 | 28 |
2011 | Feb | 30,000 | 25 |
(Note: there are a few "bishops" on the site that are not really bishops. These are mostly either ordinaries of a jurisdiction such as a prefecture or cardinals that were not also bishops.)
