Ixthis888: /* Uniates */

==Uniates==
What is the OW position on how to represent Uniate saints? For some reason a canonical church (OCA) canonised him as a saint but I am aware that "Uniates" are not considered canonical (and as an example they killed Saint Maksym (in Poland) who is an Eastern Orthodox saint, for this very reason. He spent his life vocalising this as a heresy and that is why they killed him. So, this conflict perhaps confuses me on how to represent this man on my [[Timeline of Saints]] article. A canonical church canonises a non-canonical man?? Any clarifications/thoughts would be greatly appreciated. ~~[[User:Ixthis888|Ixthis888]], 24 March 2012.

:Well, when they convert to Orthodoxy - and lead ~20000 Orthodoxy as well - it's a lot easier :) - — by [[User:Pistevo|Pιsτévο]] ''[[User talk:Pistevo|talk]]'' ''[[User talk:Pistevo/dev/null|complaints]]'' at 21:53, March 23, 2012 (HST)

::So, he renounced Uniate? Sorry, I have not read his life and asking for quick references here ... thanks heaps Pistevo. ~~ Vasiliki, 24/3/2012 7pm.

==Olga Michael==
When and by whom was matushka [[Olga Michael]] glorified? [[User:Wsk|Wsk]] 14:03, November 3, 2011 (UTC)
: If I have made an error and listed an individual who is clearly NOT glorified or to be glorified or at the very least recognised as holy during life, or a future saint by the Eastern Orthodox church, please remove them on my behalf. I have used an OW "category" list to add "names" of "saints" who are listed on our site ... so, I was adding the references in bulk not always reviewing the more modern names. This brings up another question I have ... it refers to the Year 2009. I have a reference to Alexis Toth as a Saint but he is clearly Uniate ... so, what is the OW position on how to represent Uniate saints? Personally, since I started this whole article I was doing it for the sole purpose of documenting Chalcedonean saints ... any thoughts on what position I should take would be greatly appreciated. For the meantime, I will leave him IN since I am not sure if he is or is not a saint. ~~[[User:Ixthis888|Ixthis888]], 24 March 2012.

What is the OW position on how to represent Uniate saints? I am aware that "Uniates" killed Saint Maksym who is now an Eastern Orthodox saint for this very reason ... so, this conflict perhaps confuses me on how to represent this man on my [[Timeline of Saints]] article ... any clarifications/thoughts would be greatly appreciated. ~~[[User:Ixthis888|Ixthis888]], 24 March 2012.

Talk:Timeline of Saints

2012-03-24T06:58:52Z

Ixthis888: /* Greetings from Vasiliki */

==How to add to the Timeline:==
=== The Repose ===
If you wish to add the repose of a saint, the following guidelines can help:

# It is preferred that you start with their name then a comma then the way they died and a place (if known) another comma and then the date they died and are commemorated by the church then a semi-colon eg:

*<Year> <[[:Name of Saint]]>, bishop of <place>, <crucifixion>, d. <[[:Date of death]]>, FD: <[[:Date of commemoration]]>;
*<Year> <[[:Name of Saint]]> (born-died), bishop of <place>, died by <crucifixion>, <[[:Date of commemoration]]>;
*<Year> <[[:Name of Saint]]> (born-died), abbess of <place>, martyred under <name>, <[[:Date of commemoration]]>;
etc.

Some further points:
* Dont be afraid to use the <"ref"> tag to add either:
a) Reference to a CREDIBLE/HISTORICAL Source you have used to take the information; or
b) Historical fact connecting them to either a historical personality (such as son of King X) OR father of another saint etc.

== List of WORK: ==
The following pages are OrthodoxWiki information that should be included in this article. As each one is completed just put the date you finised next to it.

;Completed:
*[[:Timeline of Church History]] - All references to saints in this article transferred and completed 26/5.
*[[:Category:American Saints]] - Done 26/5.
*[[:Category:Greek Saints]]- Done 27/5.
*[[:Category:French Saints]] - Done 3/7.

;In Progress:

*[[:Category:Saints]] - All saints listed under "A". 3/7 - all done (except for the Apostles)
*[[:Category:Saints]] - All saints listed under "B". 4/7 - all done (except [[List of Bulgarian Saints]]).

::Hmmm, its a point I questioned myself ... for our century its relevant to include major personalities not yet canonised. However, for older centuried my fear is that it will build into a Wikipedia listing ... at this point, I am trying to transfer all the known dates for saints and get to the next step which is personalities .. who were you thinking of including?

Proposals:
[[Joanikije (Lipovac) of Montenegro]],
[[Vladimir (Bogoyavlensky) of Kiev and Gallich]],
Saint Anthimos of Chios,
[[Justin Popovich]],
Saints Parthenios and Evmenios of Koudouma Monastery,
[[Ilia the Righteous]],
[[Maria Skobtsova]],
John Iacob the Romanian (the Hozevite),
[[Maxim Sandovich]],
[[Peter I (Petrovic) of Cetinje]],

There is no need to add the proposals. If someone is missing, that is because I just havent gotten around to it ... its a lot of work and it cant all be done in one day. I was tired and needed to stop. Thanks for your keeness though, you can add these people in if you know the date of their death. [[User:Ixthis888|Vasiliki]] 09:34, May 27, 2009 (UTC)
: Ok. I didn't wanted to change something because that tag that you puted on the start of the article: ,,Refrein from make major changes..." something like that....
:We should do a Main Article with 20th century saints. [[User:Maraamu|Maraamu]] 15:34, May 27, 2009 (UTC)

::I notice you created a new article. I know you are excited but dont rush ... duplicating at this stage will only cause mistakes. THIS page needs to be finished FIRST .. THEN we look into developing a sub-article. [[User:Ixthis888|Vasiliki]] 22:51, May 27, 2009 (UTC)

==Wiki Editing Proposal==
In Wikipedia I was looking at the following article (which you can possibly refer to as one cross reference (for the early centuries) to ensure there are no Orthodox saints missing here): [[w:Chronological list of saints and blesseds|Chronological list of saints and blesseds]].
Anyways, I noticed they have organized it in an Excel-like/Table-type format, with cells. Wondering if this format is possible here or might look better; headings can also include:
Date, Name, Birth, Death/Feastday, Notes. It would mean a lot more work but I thought I would at least draw your attention to it. :)

Plus, it might be a good idea to follow the Wikipedia format and create a single article for '''each''' century, if there is enough content. :)

If we are to include every Orthodox saint, then this is a long long long term project. We would have to go through the entire Synaxaristes and Prologue. In fact, this is one of the agenda items for the upcoming Inter-Orthodox Synod this summer. There is another Greek Orthodox site which has the same purpose and is actively doing the same thing; they have a great start on things, have a look:
* '''Rev. Oeconomos Christopher Klitou (Holy Metropolitan Diocese of Limassol, Cyprus).''' '''[http://www.christopherklitou.com/when_is_my_nameday_preface.htm The Orthodox Pages: WHEN IS MY NAMEDAY?].''' ''(fairly comprehensive listings, both eastern and western)''
[[User:Angellight 888|Angellight 888]] 23:43, May 27, 2009 (UTC)

:P.S. - besides the two websites above, we can also check of course the OrthodoxWiki calendar right here, for all 365 days of the year. Whether the sources are 1) Synaxaristes, 2) Prologue, 3) OW Calendar, 4) Other sites -- the fact remains that there will be some Saints for which there are no known or near dates at all; at that point you may wish to make a decision on whether to include those in the article, since this article is date based.
: A further idea I have is to enlist volunteers (as a workgroup of sorts) to help out with different centuries; they will all need to have access to the sources first though. I realize this scope I have proposed is major, but it would likely make for a well written, comprehensive and thus respected article people will refer to. Alternatively, our scope here could be limited to the more major saints. Either way the scope must be clear. [[User:Angellight 888|Angellight 888]] 01:23, May 28, 2009 (UTC)

If you look at the history of this article, it was originally created to reflect a "table" style (similar to Wiki) but without knowing that Wiki had something similar. However, I suggest, that before we all get ahead of ourselves and run before we can walk that we prioritise our time in actually documenting the Saints in a systematic approach and in a simple approach (like the article currently reads). This approach will guarantee that all saints get documented - if we revert to fancy tables from the start, the work gets too much and exhasutive and people wont be bothered in contributing because of the complexity. Once this article is full and satisfactory, then User:Andrew can help us to set up some interesting tables since his expertise is in programming. So, can we all keep it simple for now and rush to the good ideas later? [[User:Ixthis888|Vasiliki]] 02:14, May 28, 2009 (UTC)

:'''[http://www.holytrinityorthodox.com/calendar/ I have this source. It is a greate site. ]'''
:The ideea with the table is verry good. The wikipedia article looks greate. [[User:Maraamu|Maraamu]] 09:01, May 28, 2009 (UTC)
::Hi, it IS! It is fantastic, I have added it to the "Further Reading" section. Thanks for helping out with this article ..there is a LOT of work to do before we even begin to think of making it look fancy! I notice your specialty is the Serbian Saints ..did you want to focus on adding them? [[User:Ixthis888|Vasiliki]] 09:07, May 28, 2009 (UTC)
:::My specialty are the 20th cenrury saints, not only the serbs. I'm glad to help because i love verry much the saints that are contemporary with us. It is a lot of work on this subject. [[User:Maraamu|Maraamu]] 09:24, May 28, 2009 (UTC)

::::Great! Go for it: [[:Template:Saints20]] ... dont miss any! :) [[User:Ixthis888|Vasiliki]] 09:32, May 28, 2009 (UTC)

It seems to me that dividing everything up by included templates creates a level of complexity that's not really needed. Just make a single master article and link to separate articles for each century, e.g., [[Twentieth Century saints]], etc.

Generally speaking, the point of a template is that it includes data to be included in multiple articles, not as sub-parts to a single article. —[[User:ASDamick|Fr.
