Welcome*[[User talk:Magda/Archive001|Archive 1]] (November 24, 2004 – August 28, 2005)*[[User talk:Magda/Archive002|Archive 2]] (September 14, 2005 – December 15, 2005)*[[User talk:Magda/Archive003|Archive 3]] (December 23, 2005 – September 28, 2007)----==Names of Bishops in the Church==Hi Magda, I really appreciate what you do ...you do a lot of awesome editing but I really have to disagree with 1 change you are making to the 'Metropolis of XXX' articles that I have created over the past few days. This issue I have is over-riding the link I set up for the Bishops. I have noticed that you include the Metropolis area as a title to their name Eg. His Emincence [[John (Black) of Area A and B]]. Thanks I dont agree with including the 'of Area A and B' part because that title could change with time. They may become a Metropolitan to another area perhaps and then the title would no longer be relevant. I think it suffices to just use their name with Surname in the brackets ..leaving the title out of it? What do you think? Is their something I dont know that I should know for your contributions! the reason to include the title? --[[User:FrJohnIxthis888|FrJohnVasiliki]] 2014:3700, 24 Nov 2004 February 21, 2008 (CSTPST)

You said: "Also==Help needed==Hello Magda, do you have I would like to bring to your attention problem with the article [[John (Zizioulas) of Pergamon]] where one of the users keep removing valid academic source to the criticism of the J.Z., not providing any advice valid academic reason for removal, but rather expressing his own opinion on getting him to sign the matter. Since I know that user from Wikipedia and have experienced his disgraceful behavior there, I am asking for help before situation ends up in the formal request for an account?"mediation (just as happened there). Thank you.
Uh, well... you know your husband better than I. :) Maybe offer him ''piftia'' or ''salad de bef''?

==Holy Sepulchre==
== Triodion Stuff ==Hello [[User:Magda|Magda]]! The characterization of the week after the Publican and Pharisee as "the first week of the Triodion" is certainly correct and commonly heard. In your comments on my user talk pageHmm, I think (a) and (b) are spot on. Iyou've never heard re right about the pre-Lenten weeks spelling of preparation referred to as the "Triodion"Sepulchre. That was bothering me throughout, but Ididn've only ever heard them referred t want to as change the pre-Lenten weeks title of preparation or, in short-hand, pre-Lentthe article.[[User:Dcndavid|DcnDavid]] 09:29, 23 Feb 2005 (CST)Do you think it should be Americanized?
== Events ==As for what I did changed, there were a number of verbs in the history section of the article in the present tense (that were about past events). So that's what I meant by present to past tense in history. I stopped after the history section (except for changing annointed to anointed in the next paragraph), so that's why you don't see changes throughout. Oh, and I also messed with what I thought was awkward wording once or twice. Please change anything you think needs undoing.
At Thanks for the end of the list of feastskind words about my editing. I really need to start getting back on more. Honestly, put a period and then I just don'''Other events:''' etc. t have the free time that I'll note this did in [[OrthodoxWiki:Help wanted]]college. --Plus, my job requires me to sit in front of a computer 8 hours a day, so when I get home I sometimes just want to get away from these machines!

== Titles French links ==
I noticed that you were making links Thanks for filling in all the various saint titles (e.g.French links, Righteous, God-bearing, Venerable, etc.). Do you think we really need separate articles for each of these titles? Magda! — [[Saint commemorationsUser:FrJohn|<b>FrJohn</b>]] already covers some of this sort of thing, no? --([[Userhttp:ASDamick|Rdr//www.orthodoxwiki.

'''Follow-up:''' How about if we create I also wanted to give credit to Magda on the External Links; I have noticed her over last fortnight adding and adding links and its a very difficult task and I have to say she is doing a single article called really timely and thorough job! [[Saint titlesUser:Ixthis888|Vasiliki]] to which these various titles can have redirect links? I do think it would be useful to have an article which explains them. 23:34, April 16, 2008 (UTC)
Regarding == Ekatontapyliani versus Ekatontapiliani ==Hi, ur question on Anastasios Orlandos got me thinking ... can u do a hit on the style for the [[Church Calendar]] commemorations: I think it would get cumbersome to use the full versions found in [[Saint commemorations]]. There seems word Ekatontapyliani versus Ekatontapiliani to see which is hit more frequently or if you cant be a terser style characteristic of synaxaria and menaia. bother how can I don't think we intend for there to be a single menaion do that we're using here, but rather a sort of combined menaion with differences noted in parentheses where the custom varies. The one I've been using happens to be the one found in the back of the Antiochian ''Liturgikon'', though I've added in a few extras here and there. --check? [[User:ASDamickIxthis888|Rdr.

== Category links New England Diocese==Thanks, Magda, for catching the century 'date'. Also, you came up with the date for Abp Dmitiri that I've been trying to find for some time. Now the dates in his article need correcting!! [[User:Wsk|Wsk]] 23:17, April 30, 2008 (UTC)

Hi Magda, I hope you don't mind but I've made you a sysop. Thanks for your work here, [[User:FrJohn|Fr. John]]== Undo/hide ==
== Disambiguation ==Hi, Magda. I don't think it's necessary to have a disambiguation page except for saints with extremely common names (e.g., John, Basil, etc.), and then just make a page with a name like this [[Basil (disambiguation)]]. I don't think there's a need to link all the individual sainted Basils (or whomever) back to the disambiguation page. I do think it would be best to have disambiguation pages include "(disambiguation)Undo" in the article name, thoughundoes. There are some people where you wouldn't want to have the bare name article be a disambig. page, such as [[Jesus]] (though one theoretically could, since we have people like Jesus of Navi, i.e., the Prophet Joshua:). Experiment!
