Even though there are Greek versions of Sardica, the original text of the Sardican synodal decisions was latin. I am not sure, however, how to categorize it for the needs of this article. Till, do you have an idea? [[User:MSimperl|MSimperl]] ([[User talk:MSimperl|talk]]) 22:06, 19 December 2025 (CET)

:Yes, you're right, to say that Serdica was a "Greek" synod is a bit unfortunate. Maybe one could say "Eastern" instead? Not in terms of attendance (as far as I remember there was a Latin speaking majority in Serdica), but geographically? It's not a perfect solution either, because in the 340s the division of the Empire wasn't as clear-cut as it became to be from 395 onwards, but I cannot think of any alternative term that's unproblematic.
