PAULICIANS, a dualistic sect of the Orient, whose name was derived from their respect for the apostle Paul, rather than from their third leader, the Armenian Paul, as Photius and Petrus Siculus affirm.

I read the portion of the link on their doctrine.I'm skeptical that history has misrepresented them.
Anyway the article you reference doesn't mention "The Key of Truth" that BD has been speaking of and which you haven't addressed. :

My statement was the the Paulicians were oneness.... there may have been some fringe elements that leaned toward a twoness, but it cannot be substantiated from their most notable document, "The Key of Truth". In fact, Coneybear, who translated the document in the late 1800's, said "I see no evidence of any of the heresies in their writings"...
