message: The article De Viris Illustribus (Jerome) was created by a user who likes to include fairly questionable content, like a reference to "Peter, considered to be the first divine person by church of Rome."  Moreover, the user in question believes that the New Testament was written by Petrarch in the 14th century AD, and that various books contain "very special meanings" in need of being decoded.  (See further the deletion discussion for 62 of his articles that were deleted this morning.)  I am burning out trying to single-handedly steer De Viris Illustribus (Jerome) towards being a sound and encyclopedic article, and I hope someone else can start watching the page.  I have no agenda and would welcome editors with very different views from mine; the page just needs honest and experienced participants, period.

I think that this is a fine idea, but also think that I would want input from others as to which content to feature on which date. I have therefore set up a page for such discussion at Portal:Saints/Saint of the day for interested parties to nominate content related to individual saints they would like to see featured on the portal, and one which particular day, if one is preferred. I am here thinking particularly about possibly including individuals on the days of their feasts, if they have one. Any member of this project is more than welcome to make any nominations they see fit. Please feel free to make any specific suggestions there. John Carter 20:18, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Saint of the day 

message: I often run into the same sources when looking for citation for stub-level saints articles. Since I found myself looking up the same styles over and over again, as well as tiresomely checking back to copy-paste old "ref" formats, I started a Notepad list of styles for particular sources. While redoing my user page a few days ago, I thought it would be more convenient to make a user page for myself with these styles, in case I run into a sourceless saints article while not at home. So I thought I'd share it with you all: Saints citation styles for commonly encountered sources.
A few caveats however: first and most importantly, these examples are all for specific articles. You would have to modify them appropriately in order to use them correctly. It would be a good idea to use Wikipedia:Citation templates in conjunction with these, in case there are additional appropriate fields to be included. And secondly, remember that this my user page. These styles for are my personal reference. You may not like them, in which case you may continue to use whichever style of citation you please. However, if you find a problem with one or have an issue or concern, please, do bring it up to me on the citation styles talk page. Thanks. I hope these are useful. Alekjds talk 21:13, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Very helpful, thanks.  It is worth noting, on a similar topic, the change in citing ancient sources in the last 40 years.  Since much of the material we use is PD, it contians the older format for citation of ancient sources: Title in Latin, book and chapter in roman numeral, regular numbers for lines.  For example: Adversus Haeresies, II.IV.2.  However, the modern scholarly standard is to refer to the english title, and use regular numerals; thus: Against the Heresies, 2.4.2.  Just a little reminder to all.  -- Pastordavid 21:19, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Actually, considering the revision of the Portal:Saints recently, we might want to reconsider removing the Cao Dei saints as well. Personally, I have proposed again that there be a work group of Biography to deal with the majority of the non-Christian religious figures, but it has so far gotten rather little support. If such a group ever does get established, I think then we could reasonably limit ourselves to those parties included in specifically Christian lists of blessed people or those included in Christian liturgical calendars.

replies: text: Honestly, given that their lives almost completely overlap (they have the same feast day and everything), I think that a merger to the SS. Cyril and Methodius page is warranted. The naming convention would probably demand that we change it to "Cyril and Methodius," I imagine, although perhaps that would not be necessary. Alekjds talk 17:14, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: If you check out the talk pages, such a merge has been proposed before, and met a fair amount of opposition.

thread_title:  Collaboration 

message: It was brought up a while ago on Portal:Saints about how we could organize a liturgical calendar schematic for presenting saints articles on the Portal page. My idea is that we could have a category for each feast day of the year. Of course different churches have different feasts for the same saint, but this could be representing by naming the categories thus:
*1 January feast days (Western)
*1 January feast days (Eastern)
*1 January feast days (Coptic)
Et cetera. Also, we could have a little nav box on the "body" of each category page, with something on it like...
You know the drill. There's probably a more efficient template for that. Anyway, that's my idea. I acknowledge the tedious downside of manually completing this task (plus, what, creating 600-900 new categories if we want to fill out the Orthodox and Coptic calendars as well as the RC?), but I do think that it has many advantages. Alekjds talk 01:58, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: As an alternative, maybe just creating an individual page for each day of the year, with divisions for the individual traditions/denominations? Because, unfortunately, there have been a number of saints who either have different feast days in different calendars, have multiple feasts in the same calendar, and/or have had their feasts moved and/or discontinued, and the amount of categorization involved in doing all of this might be rather excessive. John Carter 02:01, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: There's already a set of articles for the Orthodox Church calendar that has been extensively filled in. See Eastern Orthodox Church calendar. TCC (talk) (contribs) 11:01, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I am well aware of them. I also know of articles on several of the individual Calendars of saints. For what little it might be worth, I think the articles referenced by User:Csernica above may at some point, given their short length, be combined into one larger and more detailed article, and that perhaps a single page listing all the known observances by Christian denominations, Orthodox, Catholic, Anglican, Lutheran and whatever else, might be the best way to ultimately go. Said articles will have substantially more content, and will stand a much better chance of ultimately reaching Featured list or some similar status. John Carter 14:39, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You know, I was just looking at those same articles (the Orthodox calendar by day articles) and thinking the same thing - that they need to be compressed to at least by month.  There are plenty of examples of what the liturgical calendars "by denomination" look like, and I think, as John noted, that there is a chance for some of these to wind up being pretty decent articles. The articles that are "by date" are just too limited to ever be particularly useful.  Pastor David † (Review) 15:47, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Each of these awards will be specifically made for the winning project. Many of you know that I haven't actally written even a single GA myself yet, so I'm not particularly useful in this regard, but if any of the rest of you can point out articles that you have written which might qualify this project for that award, I'd love to see the project get one.

thread_title:  New award being given out to projects 

message: One of the difficulties in dealing with a collaboration for a project like this one is the rather difficult scope of the project. We effectively deal with a section of the content of five distinct WikiProjects, WikiProject Anglicanism, WikiProject Catholicism, WikiProject Eastern Orthodoxy, WikiProject Lutheranism, and WikiProject Oriental Orthodoxy, as well as some additional content within the scope of our parent WikiProject Christianity. As a result, parties interested primarily in one branch of Christianity, from any of our related faith-specific projects, might have less interest in working on an article relating primarily or exclusively to some other faith. I wonder what you all might think of changing the collaboration from one monthly collaboration to five simultaneous collaborations, one relating primarily to each of the five traditions above. At least initially, I think there are probably 50-100 articles that are going to be very important to more than one tradition, and that we might get more input this way. I have also taken the liberty of contacting the projects mentioned above for any input they might like to give on this matter. I would think, rather than monthly, we might permit a collaboration to remain until and unless it receives, say, at least a GA nominataion. I would welcome any input, positive or negative. If the response were to be positive, I would think that we might be able to start sometime in January with the multiple concurrent collaborations. John Carter (talk) 15:07, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with dropping the monthly idea, but I think we should try to work on the 50-100 or so common articles before setting up separate colabs. Is St Paul GA? How about St Augustine? St John? St Thomas? St Ambrose? There are many saints that everyone would like to see go to GA. -- SECisek (talk) 21:36, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think that's more or less the intended reason for the proposal above. My real intended purpose was to make it the case that all five collaborations would be nominated for GA (or, potentially, FA, as the case may be), before new collaborations begin. The reasoning is partially due to articles like Mark the Evangelist, Athanasius of Alexandria, and others where the subject is an extremely significant figure in the history of the Oriental Orthodox Church and Christianity as a whole, but one who would still very likely not be among the first ones proposed. Then, when all five collaborations (or maybe more, depending on how many other churches, like the Arian church, declared individuals saints) have reached their intended nomination, new articles would be nominated for all five groups. Doing it this way would permit each related project to maybe concentrate on their own chosen nominee initially as those articles are developed, but still hopefully draw a bit more attention to the others. And I do think actively involving the other projects to this degree might help speed up the improvement process. John Carter (talk) 15:37, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Hi, My question is regarding naming conventions. I was editing Cainnech of Aghaboe and thought that i would link from other pages where he is mentioned (such as Kilkenny) where he is referred to as St. Canice. There is a redirect from St. Canice to Cainnech of Aghaboe but should the kilkenny page use the link St. Canice or St. Canice.

message: It has probably been noticed by most of the editors who frequent this page that there is often a pronounced degree of overlap between the various projects relating to Christianity. Given that overlap, and the rather large amount of content we have related to the subject of Christianity, it has been proposed that the various Christianity projects select a group of coordinators who would help ensure the cooperation of the various projects as well as help manage some project related activities, such as review, assessment, portal management, and the like. Preferably, we would like to consider the possibility of having one party from each of the major Christianity projects included, given the degree of specialization which some of the articles contain. We now are accepting nominations for the coordinators positions at Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/Coordinators/Election 1. Any parties interested in helping performing some of the management duties of the various Christianity projects is encouraged to nominate themselves there. Thank you. John Carter (talk) 17:32, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Much to my surprise, the period for the factual elections of the new coordinators has started a bit earlier than I expected. For what it's worth, as the "instigator" of the proposed coordinators, the purpose of having them is not to try to impose any sort of "discipline" on the various projects relating to Christianity, but just to ensure that things like assessment, peer review, portal maintainance, and other similar directly project-related functions get peformed for all the various projects relating to Christianity. If there are any individuals with this project who are already doing such activities for the project, and who want to take on the role more formally, I think nominations are being held open until the end of the elections themselves. And, for the purposes of this election, any member in good standing of any of the Christianity projects can either be nominated or express their votes at Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/Coordinators/Election 1.
