Traditions that name it as theirs
3 traditions name Russian Orthodox Church as their own — an affiliation read from their records, not a branch.
What this means
Association and branching, in both directions. Traditions overlap, split and re-merge; this is not a single-origin family tree, and being listed under another tradition is not the same as being recognised by it.
Does not imply a clean single-origin family tree · that the parent recognises the branch

Attributed founding
Whom the records name as founder
What this means
An attribution, and a contested one in most traditions: it does not mean the tradition began fully formed, nor that later adherents accept the attribution.

What this means
Records whose own statements name this tradition — 15 of them. Computed from those statements, not curated here, and ordered by how widely each is linked across Wikipedia — those at home in the tradition’s collection first, and those with a picture first among the leading few — rather than by significance to the tradition.
An affiliation recorded on a person is a third party’s record, often of one period of a life — not that person’s belief at every point in it.

A place that names a tradition may be a temple or a whole province. Either way it is not a count of believers, and not evidence of practice in every period.

A ruling house that names a tradition is a family’s recorded affiliation, not its subjects’ practice; an office is a line of holders, not a family.

Connections
How Russian Orthodox Church connects
Grouped by the kind of relationship, because a successor is not a son and a shared symbol is not an influence.
Affiliation 2
What this means
Association with a tradition or school. Traditions branch, overlap and re-merge; this is not a clean single-origin tree.
Does not imply a fixed roster · that every account of the tradition knows this figure · personal belief at every point in a life · the practice of a population
Imported from Wikidata unless a tile says otherwise. Nothing here has been read by an editor.
Recorded events and days 2
What this means
Events Wikidata records in a subject’s history, and the day a festival is kept. Not a complete history, and the day a festival falls on is not when it began.
Does not imply that these are all the events in its history · that Wikidata ranks the events by importance
