Additional notes
According to Lorenzo Cardella Lucius II promoted also Nikolaus of Germany to the rank of cardinal-deacon or cardinal-priest of S. Lorenzo in Damaso, but no such cardinal appears among signatories of the papal bulls. Cardella mentions also cardinal-deacon Guy of S. Maria in Portico but he was created only by Eugene III and is identical with future Antipope Paschalis III. Besides, it is possible that Lucius II promoted also cardinal-deacon Pietro of S. Maria in Via Lata, but most probably he was created by Eugene III in March 1145.
