The fine folks over at [http://www.skete.com/ St. Isaac of Syria Skete] have given '''OrthodoxWiki''' permission to use the icon images from their website.  Here is the response received from Stan Kain, their marketing and website manager:

There's now a [[:Category:Vestments|whole new category]] and set of articles dedicated to [[vestments]].  There's plenty of work there to be done expanding the current articles and adding some new ones.  See [[vestments]] for links that need filling, and consider tracking down some usable images, as well.  Also see the related [[:Category:Liturgics]].

A whole new set of possibilities is opened up at [[Holy Scripture]], as well.  We'll need articles on every book of the Bible and some fleshing out on the main article itself.

Work continues apace, and massive expansion is occurring in multiple categories, thanks to our multiple new contributors.  In the past few weeks, we've significantly simplified and organized the [[Main Page]], which should make the site a good bit more usable and attractive.  Additionally, for examples of some of the more developed articles we've been working on, see:  [[Mount Athos]], [[Lindisfarne]], [[Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia]], [[Autocephaly]], [[St. Tikhon's Orthodox Monastery (South Canaan, Pennsylvania)]] and [[Iona]].

We're also working on the individual days on the [[Church Calendar]], with much more to do!  Take a look at the numerous categories on the [[Main Page]] (or go to [[Special:Categories]]), click around, and see what needs doing. Please also stop by [[Orthodox Church]] and [[Ecumenical Councils]] to flesh out the content in these central articles, and definitely pop in to [[:Category:Saints]],  [[:Category:Monasteries]], and [[:Category:Jurisdictions]] to see the growth in those areas.

We're currently still adding to the [[OrthodoxWiki:Style Manual]], but its essential structure and a lot of the basic content structure for '''OrthodoxWiki''' are now in place.  A lot remains to be done on the meta-side of things, however, especially on the [[Help:Contents|Help]] section.
