==Note==Vasiliki, thank you for your kind note. I think if you'll take a tend to be history buff - so I like to look at encyclopedias such as behind the ''Oxford Dictionary fluff of the Christian Church'' or the ''Blackwell Dictionary of Eastern Christianity'', or any other encyclopedia, you'll find that etymology usually only takes up perhaps tradition (small t) get a few words in parentheses after the initial name picture of the entry, ewhat "really" happened.gBill/Basil/Vasily. [[User:Wsk|Wsk]] 20:31, '''''Stephen the Protomartyr''' January 20, 2009 (Gk. ''stephanos'', "crown"UTC)'''''.

I'd strongly recommend that you take a look at these stylistically standard sources when editing articles to get a sense of the standards that we've been using on OrthodoxWiki for the past few years. Thanks! &mdash;[[User:ASDamick|<font size="3.5" color="green" faceMinor edits ="Adobe Garamond Pro, Garamond, Georgia, Times New Roman">Fr.

Just a suggestion for clarity. This would put the title more in line with other entries for key icons, such as those of the Theotokos, and also include the other common reference to this icon, the '''''Taxiarchis'''''. Cheers. &mdash;[[User:Angellight_888|<font size="3.5" color="blue" face="Adobe Garamond Pro, Garamond, Georgia, Times New Roman">Chris</font>]] ^{[[User_talk:Angellight_888|<font color="red">talk</font>]]} 9:10, January 20, 2008 (EST)

:: Hi Chris, yes the area is Mantammados but most Greek people actually name the icon I've noticed you've recently made a huge number of edits all marked as "Mantammadosminor." as a stand alone nickname or pet reference ... We do not usually refer to the entire phrase Archangel Michael Taxiarchis of Mantammados ... its a 'nickname'. Just like the Please remember that "Panormitisminor" icon (my article tomorrow) ... we dont call the icon ..the Taxiarchis of Symi the Panormitisedits are things like fixing spelling, he is more commonly referred to as 'Panormitis' and known this way. Since I am not here on Orthodwiki long enoughminor formatting issues, do you still suggest that the article be moved anyway? Alsofixing links, I dont know how to move the article ..etc. I am happy either way, as long as the information Adding content is available for people to learn ..almost never minor. -- [[User:Ixthis888|Vasiliki]] 18:35 This may seem pedantic, January 20but it's actually pretty important, 2008 (PST)since many folks filter what they see in edit histories so that they don't see minor edits.

The biggest thing missing from the Gorgoepikoos article is a history of its formationHi, closely followed by future plans for development, and perhaps a personal history of Mother Kallistheni - I kinda thought that but the [[Monastery of Pantanassa (Mangrove Mountain, New South Wales|Pantanassa Monastery]] article and the article fact that I modify every 30 seconds I thought on [[Stephanos (Pantanassiotis)|Elder Stephanos]] is the best example for what I other hand people would look for be annoyed with me if the same article came up a zillion times in the Recent Changes list ..its not a problem ..I was doing can do it - but, the beauty of Orthodox Wiki (and all wiki encyclopediaspedantic) is that collectively we make better articles.

This image of the saint is taken from www.imr.gr but it does not belong to them since its been around for a very long time on the web. I thought if an image has been around for a while on the web its ok to use... another thing, most of my other images are scans of my own personal pictures at home. Should we take this image off the page then? -- [[User:Ixthis888|Vasiliki]] 13:44, January 31, 2008 (PST)

The current use discussion page of the image is larger than 80x200 pixelsarticle. The beginning of You were absolutely correct, the titles for the OrthodoxWiki [[Help:Image licenses]] page states: "All images eras should be tagged with information about their copyright/licensing status and source. It is illegal for us to use images on OrthodoxWiki for which we do not have permission or which are not usable under reflect the fair use provisions history of United States copyright law.Images which do not conform to policy are subject to immediate deletion. Merely noting the image's source is not enoughChurch as much as possible. There must be verifiable permission given I think I have done this successfully for OrthodoxWiki's use of the imageeras up to 1485 AD - (have a look). It After that time it is your responsibility difficult to place a name on any period of British history as it relates to the uploader Church, so we will have to ensure that go with the image may be used and is tagged as properly licensedsecular headings I think." I know it's a huge painAgain, for the 20th century, but if we keep track you can determine when each of these things as we upload imagesthe dioceses for the various Orthodox jurisdictions were established, it's much better for OrthodoxWiki to be as correct as we cancould create a sub-category with those dates. Thank you for your help in taking responsibility I think for now, we are good to go with the files you uploadsuggested outline. —:) [[User:MagdaAngellight 888|<b>magda</b>Angellight 888]] 03:53, May 26, 2009 (UTC)==About Dates==I'm using the '''new calendar dates'''.

Is mention the Nativity feast and the 25 dec is the new date. 7 jan is the old date.:BTW. Take it easy. This lists are not an easy work. There are more then 4000 names (in all centuries)out there. We should take this step by step and with a lot of calm, peacefully and love for saints. [[User:Maraamu|Maraamu]]
