Welcome to OrthodoxWiki!

Hello, AKCGY, and welcome to OrthodoxWiki!

Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Please note that OrthodoxWiki is always in development, so not everything works quite right yet. You can help, though!

OrthodoxWiki is a community-edited encyclopedia of Orthodox Christianity. Articles are created and edited by our members, and so everything that we do here is subject to review and revision. The result is a true consensus product, with every interested editor contributing his own knowledge and writing skills. As such, when you feel that criticism of an article is warranted, we encourage you to join in and fix it! Don't worry about breaking anything or doing something wrong—the other editors here are happy to jump in and help you learn.

PLEASE read carefully the section of the Style Manual titled OrthodoxWiki:Style Manual (Point of View).

Also please note that other editors will assume that you have read the Style Manual (our official editing guidelines). If you're wondering why an edit was reverted, an article renamed, or any other unexpected changes were made by another editor, check there.

Please also take a few moments to edit your user page by clicking on your name here, so that we can know a bit about you: User:AKCGY. Feel free also to add your picture to the OrthodoxWiki:User gallery.

If you are uploading images, be sure you're doing so legally and according to OrthodoxWiki policy. Failure to abide by policy may result in your images getting deleted without warning.

If you would like to experiment with the wiki, please feel free to do so in the Sandbox.

By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and other discussion pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) produces your name and the current date. Please sign your comments on Talk pages, so everyone will easily be able to see who left them.

Naming bishop articles

Hello. I noticed you've recently created several articles dedicated to hierarchs. In the future, please try to name them according to the appropriate section of the official Style Manual, which stipulates, among other things, that titles should be left out of the article names for bishops. Thanks! —Dcn. Andrew talk random contribs 18:41, July 14, 2006 (CDT)

Image copyright?

Hi AKCGY,

Do you have any information on the copyright or source for Image:StVolodymyr.jpg? (I renamed it so that the strange characters in the old filename don't cause any problems later on.) Thanks! — FrJohn (talk)

I had found the picture on Wikipedia ([1])...thanks for the name change!--AKCGY 23:14, August 14, 2006 (CDT)

Христос Рождається -Christ is Born!

I would like to greet all my fellow Orthodox Wiki members on the occasion of Christ's Nativity, and on the New Year;

Your deleted image(s)

Hello! One or more images which you uploaded has been deleted in according with OrthodoxWiki policy, most likely because you did not provide an appropriate tag for it.

If you feel that this deletion was in error, you may upload the image again, giving it the appropriate tag indicating that the image is legal for OrthodoxWiki to use.

To check which images may have been deleted, take a look at your upload log and look for red links.

Thank you for your contributions! —Fr. Andrew talk contribs 11:47, March 16, 2007 (PDT)

Please do not do such things

[2][3]. Editing history should not be lost. You should rename the page but not to wrap the text from one page to another.

However, there is a question, not related only to this page, it should be discussed. I am sure that the monastic names should be translated and secular - transliterated. Since I believe that Basil (Fedak) was a monk, I translated his name. You wrote (in en-wiki): "Metropolitan Wasyly (Fedak) was never known in any capacity under the name "Basil." He was always officially titled "Wasyly" in English.". It is not so. If you search in google information on request "Basil (Fedak)", you will see the opposite. ~ Чръный человек 06:02, February 10, 2013 (HST)
