: It's not really a question of storage space, by any means. My question was simply if those working on these articles feel that they are regarding persons of encyclopedic notability rather than being simply biographies of local clergy. I'm glad to read that they are in the former category. {{User:ASDamick/sig}} 21:10, May 23, 2006 (CDT)
::Some things that, imho, should be done - categories and templates. Placing a [[:Category:Orthodoxy in Australia]] (or New Zealand) and a { { orthodoxyinaustralasiasmall } } tag (w/o spaces, of course) in the pages will help keep things orderly. Ideally with these articles, they would also be added to the expanding list on the Orthodoxy in Australasia frontpage. — ''[[User:Pistevo|Pι]]''[[Special:Listusers/sysop|s]]'''[[Usertalk:Pistevo|τ]]'''[[Special:Contributions/Pistevo|é]]''[[User:Pistevo|vο]]'', at 10:52, May 25, 2006 (CDT)
Tonight's additions to [[Michael Shehadie]] give a good indication of the sort of material which can be added later, justifying his initial inclusion from an Australian perspective. chrisg 2006-05-30-2332 EAST

::I had not, admittedly, distinguished between parish and mission or monastery. In ROCOR, I had included Holy Cross Australian Orthodox Mission, Melbourne [http://www.australianorthodox.org] and St John the Baptist Skete, Sydney. However, I had also completely forgotten about St Anna's Convent, Melbourne, which is English-speaking - are there services there? — ''[[User:Pistevo|Pι]]''[[Special:Listusers/sysop|s]]'''[[Usertalk:Pistevo|τ]]'''[[Special:Contributions/Pistevo|é]]''[[User:Pistevo|vο]]'', at 19:41, May 25, 2006 (CDT)
 
::: Sr Virginia (Riasophora Theodora) recites all the hours at her convent at Preston Vic, usually alone, but occasionally with one or two others. Fr Joakim at Kentlyn NSW is an EFL priest, and well loved. He usually says the hours and he also celebrates liturgy if any people are there. Spring Street Mission Melbourne Vic now only has three or four periodic attenders. Services there are infrequent with Hieromonk Benjamin having to travel to Melbourne from interstate. The future looks bleak for the Spring Street mission.

:Concerning the comments of one chrisg... The 'bleak future' of Holy Cross Mission has been greatly exaggerated. www.australianorthodox.org
 
::Thank God for the fruit it bears. It can be difficult to tell in the early days of a mission, and his comment was written 8 months ago. &mdash; edited by [[User:Pistevo|<font color="green">Pιs</font><font color="gold">τévο</font>]] <sup>''[[User talk:Pistevo|<font color="blue">talk</font>]]'' ''[[User talk:Pistevo/dev/null|<font color="red">complaints</font>]]''</sup> at 03:37, February 6, 2007 (PST)

Of course, that wasn't much. However, because of the considerable amount of information that is contained in this series, and the basic unwieldiness of trying to fit it all together, I would propose making, effectively, two series' - one for Australia, the other for New Zealand. Thoughts? &mdash; ''[[User:Pistevo|Pι]]''[[Special:Listusers/sysop|s]]'''[[Usertalk:Pistevo|τ]]'''[[Special:Contributions/Pistevo|é]]''[[User:Pistevo|vο]]'', at 10:52, May 25, 2006 (CDT)
