سلام المسيح اخي. شكراً لفتحكم موقع ويكي بالعربي لكننا سنحتاج مشرفين في هذا القسم قبل أن نعلن للناس عنه وأنا سانقل مواضيعي للقسم العربي.

== Sysop? ==
Dear Arbible,
You've been around OrthodoxWiki for a long time now, and I'm grateful for your work and commitment to this site. I'd like you to become our official "Oriental Orthodox Sysop," helping us to oversee (and mediate if necessary) articles related to the non-Chalcedonian churches and suggesting ways we could build more in this direction. I'm not sure what this would mean, but maybe you could help us figure it out!
I don't expect any more of a time commitment that you've already demonstrated. Along with the Sysop role, you'd be included on the sysop email list, and have some additional powers for managin articles.
Let me know, either here or on my talk page, or directly by email if you're willing to take on this job. Thanks! {{User:FrJohn/sig}}
:Dear Father,
:Thanks very much. This would be a great blessing to me. I would be very happy and also privileged to be able to learn more from you all and help as much as I can.
:Yours in Christ, --[[User:Arbible|Arbible]] 16:53, August 10, 2006 (CDT)
:;Wonderful! In progress... Thanks, [[User:FrJohn|Fr. John]]

== welcome message ==
Hello, when you welcome someone, use subst: for the <nowiki>{{welcome}}</nowiki> template. I mean, instead of placing <nowiki>{{welcome}}</nowiki> in the user talk page, place <nowiki>{{subst:welcome}}</nowiki>. This will make it more personal, and the new user, when hit "Edit this page" to reply to the message, will see a text, not an ugly template. Regards, [[User:Gregg|Gregg]] 15:53, August 26, 2006 (CDT)
:Thanks very much for the excellent tip. Will do. Yours in Christ, --[[User:Arbible|Arbible]] 01:04, August 27, 2006 (CDT)
== Booklets ==
Thanks for the booklets, Arbible! I got home on Friday, and they were waiting for me in the mail. I look forward to reading them. — [[User:FrJohn|<b>FrJohn</b>]] ([http://www.orthodoxwiki.org/User_talk:FrJohn&action=edit§ion=new talk])

== New Additions ==
Thanks for the quick reply. The article is my article and contribution to en.wikipedia.org. But I like your project and I think there should be an Orthodox wiki as well. I intend to add more monasteries from Romania. But that depends on the time I have. I also corrected the problem with the pictures and I have made them free for non-comercial use.
== Arabic ==
How would you say OrthodoxWiki in Arabic? Thanks! — [[User:FrJohn|<b>FrJohn</b>]] ([http://www.orthodoxwiki.org/User_talk:FrJohn&action=edit§ion=new talk])
::This would be:

:Thanks - changed the sitename setting on the Arabic version. — [[User:FrJohn|<b>FrJohn</b>]] ([http://www.orthodoxwiki.org/User_talk:FrJohn&action=edit§ion=new talk])
:P.S. I've updated your sysop rights over there. Let me know if anything needs to be tweaked - I know, e.g. some of the special pages aren't translated. I guess that's not a super-high priority though. Maybe better just to get something on the main page, and transfer over the legal stuff. Feel free to take charge over there as much as you have time for. Thanks! — [[User:FrJohn|<b>FrJohn</b>]] ([http://www.orthodoxwiki.org/User_talk:FrJohn&action=edit§ion=new talk])

==Coptic articles==
Hi I am interested in articles about the[[Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria]] and I have been asked by [[User:ASDamick|<font size="3.5" color="green" face="Adobe Garamond Pro, Garamond, Georgia, Times New Roman">Fr. Andrew</font>]] <sup>[[User_talk:ASDamick|<font color="red">talk</font>]]</sup> <small>[[Special:Contributions/ASDamick|<font color="black">contribs</font>]]</small> on 15:45, March 29, 2007 (PDT) to organise with you as you are one of the administrators
I have started and edited a lot of the atricles regarding this chuch on english and arabic wikipedia and I am hoping I will be able to transfer a lot of these atricles if not all to othodoxwiki if possible
Looking forward to hear from you--[[User:Ghaly|Ghaly]] 16:06, March 29, 2007 (PDT)
would you agree with me that both sides call themselves orthodox the differentiation is by saying Oriental or Eastern.--[[User:Ghaly|Ghaly]] 06:49, April 13, 2007 (PDT)
== Thank you! ==
I had to let you know that I am glad that you're here to help maintain articles regarding things Coptic. You do a good job of keeping things balanced and within the parameters of OrthodoxWiki's self-identity. —[[User:ASDamick|<font size="3.5" color="green" face="Adobe Garamond Pro, Garamond, Georgia, Times New Roman">Fr.

== His Holiness Pope Shenouda III and what you claim against him... ==
My Dear Brother,
How are you? I hope you are doing well.
I am very upset because what is written about His Holiness is absolutely 100% false and you won't allow me to correct it. I know for a fact that everything written is not true. How can you allow such things to be written? I don't understand where you get such ideas. His Holiness is a strong defender of Orthodoxy and he does not believe in any of what you have kept here on this page. Please show me what are your sources and I will prove to you this is false information. His Holiness is coming to visit in 1 month and I plan on presenting him with a copy of what is written so he can clarify it and if he has time, I will ask him to discuss it with us and I will ask to record the conversation.
I really hope you understand why I am upset about this situation. I hope to hear from you soon. Please keep me in your prayers.

: There are even more points, including Pope Shenouda's 'denial that the Holy Spirit can dwell in the faithful', and Pope Shenouda's famous 'three bodies of Christ' theory adapted from Protestant writings (in their interpretation of what we receive in the Eucharist). All these issues are fully documented and referenced from Pope Shenouda's published writings/books and audio/video lectures. I invite you to read more about the Orthodox doctrine of theosis, the Barlaamite Controversy (14th century), as well as Pope Shenouda's writings against Pope Kyrillos VI in El-Keraza magazine during the sixties of the past century. --[[User:Arbible|Arbible]] 00:59, April 27, 2007 (PDT)
== His Eminence Metropolitan Bishoy... ==
My Dear Brother
I realized that you also protected his page when all you are doing is hurting him, not protecting him. Everything he said was taken out of context. Please realize that it is the enemies of the Church who do such things in order to create problems. Please allow me to edit this page as well. I can't stand to see this lies written about His Holiness and Metropolitan Bishoy. They are 2 of the greatest Theologians of our time and great defenders of Orthodoxy and they are being persected a lot as Saint Athanasius the Great was.
I hope once again that you understand me. Please keep me in your prayers.

'''Try learning Arabic first, then listen to the recording. It has nothing to do with baptism!''' --[[User:Arbible|Arbible]] 02:43, May 4, 2007 (PDT)
== Please forgive me for the rude tone I was speaking to you in. ==
Dear Arbible,
I am sorry for how I was speaking to you, please forgive me. I am very upset about this situation because you are calling His Holiness Pope Shenouda a heretic. I can't just sit quiet while you write all these things which are lies. I have written a lot in response to what you claim, but rather than respond, you simply deleted it and I don't understand why? Please respond and I hope to hear from you soon.
Once again, I ask for your forgiveness for speaking in a manner that was rude.
Please keep me in your prayers.
: Above comments by [[User:Orthodoxy4everr]]
: Dear Orthodoxy4everr,
: Thanks for your messages. The published writings and recordings of both HH Pope Shenouda and HE Anba Bishoy speak very clearly for themselves, but they are in '''Arabic''' (please see my short comment in bold above). The persecution of the blessed departed Fr Matta El-Meskeen and his monks (which continues to this very day) is also very well known, and their writings also speak for themselves. We are not here to hide selected parts of, doctor, or embellish the truth. This is not a public relations department; this is a (scholarly) encyclopedic work that seeks to be objective and factual.
: The Pope and the clergy have the highest respect, but these are events and facts that occurred whether some people like it or not.

== About saint Marina ==
I am not sure , but i beilive that Saint Marina was from modern-day Albania.
:This is not my article, but the source quoted is the Coptic Synaxarium so I added an {{ Oriental }} tag + moved St. Marina > Marina (according to OW naming conventions). Please feel free to edit as necessary. If you are going to use other non-Oriental sources, perhaps we should also remove the {{ Oriental tag}}. In Christ, --[[User:Arbible|Arbible]] 10:22, June 26, 2007 (PDT)
: I must check, ther is Saint Marina from Albania and her feast day is [[July 17]]. You could see in Prologue from Ohrid.
--[[User:Ddpbf|Ddpbf]] 10:41, June 26, 2007 (PDT). God bless you.
