1955, Erich Loos, Baldassare Castigliones „Libro del cortegiano“ – Studien zur Tugendauffassung des Cinquecento, Frankfurt a.M., page 195:

Wie im Konklave über den künftigen Papst abgestimmt wird, bleibt strikt vertraulich.

2025 May 7, Ivo Marusczyk, “Wie das Konklave abläuft: Strikt abgeschottet - und "besinnlich"”, in Tagesschau, archived from the original on 2025-05-07:

How the future pope will be voted on in the conclave remains strictly confidential.

Die Messe im voll besetzten Petersdom war laut Protokoll der offizielle Start des Konklaves und der Auftakt zu einer möglicherweise mehrtägigen Papstwahl.

2025 May 7, “Vatikan: Konklave hat offiziell begonnen - wer wird neuer Papst?”, in Der Spiegel, →ISSN:

Kein Wunder, dass ein Reformentwurf dieser Jahrzehnte vorschlägt, die^([sic]) Konklave doch kurzerhand in die Engelsburg zu verlegen, wo sich der Besucherstrom problemlos eindämmen ließe.
