This doesn't answer the OP's question -- please see [Answers vs Advice](https://buddhism.meta.stackexchange.com/q/61/254). If you don't think the question is worth answering then just don't answer it, or find a different question that is worth answering.

It was worth answering; and I did so with the proper practice... wearing white robes from causing or re-arousing schism isn't cool. OP if you really want to  know: email or call: Wat Carolina; The Abbot: Chao Kun was most likely at all of those councils he should be able to clarify when and what was said at them.

Please avoid posting link answers. The question should be addressed in the answer itself.

The Wikipedia article mostly agrees with your second link i.e. http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Buddhist_councils ... but your first link i.e. http://www.thisismyanmar.com/nibbana/2589year.htm currently returns nothing (an 'empty' page) when I try it.

I suggest you ask for citation there. Or initiate a discussion under the Talk tab.

Councils are only held after some schism between the schools. Bah.

Politics is a Mara to arouse emotion; stick to all the precepts oneself... do not worry about; Titles, Recognition and other such nonsense.

Emotion is human delusion... Born out of: The feeling and sensation skandhas. There is only pain or not pain; same as pranayama breath; Only you know if the breath is a long pain or a short pain, not a long pain or not a short pain.

Move from such pranayama and it becomes the breath of; The Prajna Paramita: One of peace and wisdom.
