Timeline of Orthodoxy in Greece

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Timeline of Orthodoxy in Greece, and it appears to be a substantial copy of http://orthodoxwiki.org/Timeline_of_Orthodoxy_in_Greece. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 01:22, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

The WP:FEED backlog

Hello, I see you made a request at WP:FEED a long time ago, but have continued to be active on Wikipedia and made good edits to the encyclopedia. Since you have posted on WP:FEED in the past, I would like to suggest that if you want please try and help out at the page, as we have a massive backlog. It'd be really great if you provided some advice to other, new users on their articles.

To do this, you'll just need to take a look at their article, which they'll post the link to, and maybe see what perhaps can be improved, like adding sections, references or links, much like you would do with any other article, except you are giving feedback rather than making actual edits. After getting some idea of what needs to be improved, you just need to tell them briefly underneath. It's really simple but incredibly useful to new users and their articles, and helps to overall increase the quality of these new articles.

I hope you will at least consider, thanks. Please send me a message if you have any further questions. Thanks a lot! Chevymontecarlo 13:44, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

Hello. Πρόσεξα ότι γνωρίζεις πολύ καλά ελληνικά. Θα ήθελα τη βοήθεια σου. Έχω μεταφράσει δύο λήμματα από την ελληνική Βικιπαίδεια στην αγγλική. Δυστυχώς, υπάρχουν κάποια λάθη, κυρίως συνταχτικά.

Eastern Liturgical Feasts being removed

For articles for: December 2nd December 3rd December 6th December 8th December 10th December 11th December 12th December 13th December 14th December 15th December 24th December 26th December 27th December 28th December 29th December 30th December 31st

The link to the Eastern Orthodox liturgics is not present. I do not know if they never were added, or if they were removed by a user. I do not know if this has been done to other months, but I only checked this month. Just letting you know that it will need to be put in again, but I do not have the time to do so and I don't really know how. I will post also to the Eastern Orthodox page about this.75.73.114.111 (talk) 06:05, 10 December 2013 (UTC)

I added links for all the days in December that were missing. (They had never been added in the first place, because those Orthodox Calendar Day articles had not yet been created). I have not checked the other 11 months to see if they all have links to the Orthodox Liturgical Calendar days. Thanks, ΙΣΧΣΝΙΚΑ-888 (talk) 17:35, 14 December 2013 (UTC)

Eastern Orthodox Patriarchs

I noticed you reverted my edits on the Eastern Orthodox category and I was curious why? My knowledge of the area may not be as much as I'd like it to be but I was under the impression that Eastern Orthodox included Greek Orthodoxy. Which is why I thought it was rather pointless to have a category for Greek Orthodox Patriarchs and Eastern Orthodox Patriarchs also. Mugsalot (talk) 10:22, 19 July 2014 (UTC)

You did not leave any explanation or justification for your edits at all, and it seemed that the categories were valid categories in and of themselves. However in response to your comment above, I see that in order to avoid duplication, it might be best either to include "Category:Greek Orthodox Patriarchs of Jerusalem" as a sub-category of "Category:Eastern Orthodox Patriarchs of Jerusalem", or else simply to request deletion of "Category:Eastern Orthodox Patriarchs of Jerusalem". Deletion seems like the best path, since having one subcategory is unnecessary, as there are no other "Eastern Orthodox" Patriarchs or Jerusalem other than the "Greek Orthodox" (i.e. the Armenian Patriarch is "Oriental Orthodox"). Thanks for the clarification. ΙΣΧΣΝΙΚΑ-888 (talk) 13:13, 19 July 2014 (UTC)

Sorry about that, I would have put a deletion request on the category but I didn't realise there was a different way of deleting categories and I couldn't find the template. So, would I be right to assume that I can revert your edits and leave it empty? Mugsalot (talk) 14:32, 19 July 2014 (UTC)

Sounds good. Thanks ΙΣΧΣΝΙΚΑ-888 (talk) 14:35, 19 July 2014 (UTC)

Regarding the Icon of Pope Miltiades

Hi, You have reverted my edits to December 10 (Eastern Orthodox liturgics) and April 10 (Eastern Orthodox liturgics). The icon in this picture is of Saint Julius the Veteran (See File:IuliusVeteranul.jpg; cf. Julius the Veteran and May 27 (Eastern Orthodox liturgics)) Unless you have a Orthodox icon of Pope Miltiades, please restore my edits. I have nominated the picture for deletion at commons. So if it gets thru, this image will be redirected to the one that I have replaced. --Jayarathina (talk) 14:23, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

I now see that the original icon is misnamed. Sorry for the confusion and thanks. ΙΣΧΣΝΙΚΑ-888 (talk) 14:26, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

Response to your message

My edits are not vandalism, but when I didn't comprove the proof of Roman Catholic recognizment of some saint, I let him inside saint category. There is no doubt. In German saints, for instance, only one is not Roman Catholic saint, and I did it. There is no doubt about this matter!

Thank you for your additions in Photios. Also notice that all additions should have an inline reference so the article can pass the wp:dyk nomination.Alexikoua (talk) 07:59, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

Thanks again. I see you are interested in various religious personalities, so you might be also interested in expanding Dionysios Mantoukas or Ioakeim Martianos, they are stubs right now.Alexikoua (talk) 16:37, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

Many thanks for the suggestion. I will try to look into it. Salut. ΙΣΧΣΝΙΚΑ-888 (talk) 13:23, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

Elder Paisios of Mount Athos

I thank you for your edits which have been quite constructive.

I do question, however, the category "20th-century Eastern Orthodox clergy" as Saint Paisios wasn't ordained that I'm aware of, and the existing category "Eastern Orthodox monks" seems to me to be sufficient.

Also, I had been thinking of renaming the article to "Saint Paisios of Mount Athos" and I'd like tour opinion.

Vincent J. Lipsio (talk) 14:40, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

Yes indeed, good point. I had the same puzzling question about ordination... I searched and noticed a few pages online in Greek that referred to him as "ιερομοναχος παισιος" ("Hieromonk Paisios"); but I could not find any confirmation of this in English or in more mainstream sources. I have his biography (book), and will consult that. Until then I agree it may be best to remove the category.

As for the article title, renaming it with 'Saint' sounds appropriate; but I am not sure which format is best to use here on Wikipedia; for instance, his fellow Athonite Elder Porphyrios (Bairaktaris) of Kafsokalivia is named that way, without 'Saint', and with the last name in brackets, as is appropriate for Orthodox monastics. Other 20th century Saints such as Silouan the Athonite do not use 'Saint' either. I think a good option might be "Paisios (Eznepidis) of Mount Athos", which gives a better identification. ΙΣΧΣΝΙΚΑ-888 (talk) 20:20, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

I was introduced to him in 1978 (but didn't actually converse with him) and I don't recall his being a priest. Also the icon you added (thanks!) shows St. Porphyrios as a priest, but not St. Paisios.

As for renaming, perhaps both St. Porphyrios' and St. Paisios' articles should be renamed. There's great inconsistency in Wikipedia on how saints' articles are titled, and I don't see any reason to not rename it, but I don't have a strong opinion, either. (Of course, he could have been a deacon, I suppose, but that's improbable.)

Methinks that "Schemamonk" shouldn't be used both because it's peculiar to the Russian Church and also because it's meaningless to most readers.

Also, "Ὃσιος" translates to "Saint" not "Venerable" (it's a common mistranslation, but it's wrong; there are two words in Greek that translate to "holy" or "saint").

Vincent J. Lipsio (talk) 14:43, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

Many thanks for this reply. Please feel free to make the corrections when you can. Regarding "Schemamonk", he was in fact a Great Schema monk, so perhaps it could be renamed like that to show his rank, "Great Schema Monk"; i.e the term is linked to the article explaining it. ΙΣΧΣΝΙΚΑ-888 (talk) 15:03, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for your further edits. As for the great schema, well, St. Silouan was in the great schema, as was St. Nicodemus the Hagiorite, and presumably was St. Porphyrios, and were many other monastics whose articles don't style them as such specifically. In Greek, the term isn't used as a title, and I'm quite sure only Russians use it as such.

Vincent J. Lipsio (talk) 18:41, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

Yet this was the actual level of his monastic rank, and as such should definitely be included in the template. ΙΣΧΣΝΙΚΑ-888 (talk) 18:53, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

Well, do you want to edit the dozens, perhaps hundreds, of articles that don't explicitly mention the great schema? How about all the monastics who lived before there was a little schema? And do you want to mention rassophores explicitly?

Vincent J. Lipsio (talk) 22:30, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

If a Saint's monastic rank is a fact and it is known, as it is in Elder Paisios' case for an example, then there is no reason it should be left out and not be included. The other cases you list could easily mention the rank as it relates to them as well, if it is known and they probably should. It is a statement of the obvious and inclusion makes it more complete. ΙΣΧΣΝΙΚΑ-888 (talk) 00:04, 22 January 2015 (UTC)

I very much disagree with you but I'm not changing it lest I start an editing war or cause hard feelings or whatnot.

Vincent J. Lipsio (talk) 16:20, 22 January 2015 (UTC)

Very well since the field in the infobox is named 'title' and not 'rank', and, there are icons now where he is referred to - together with Saint Porphyrios and Elder Iakovos - as "The New Acetics" -- (see: ΑΓΙΟΙ ΤΡΕΙΣ ΓΕΡΟΝΤΕΣ, ΟΙ ΝΕΟΙ ΑΣΚΗΤΕΣ; Η τριάς των οσίων νέων ασκητών), I submit that the 'title' field better be changed to 'The New Ascetic' .

PS, Hoping this interests you, at the Holy Cross Monastery (Wayne, West Virginia), "On Monday night, after Matins for the Synaxis of St. John the Baptist, His Grace Bishop George tonsured the Rassaphore Monk Jason to the Small Schema, giving him the new name Monk Paisios in honor of the newly-glorified St. Paisios the Athonite." (Note the non-use of "schema-bishop".) Vincent J. Lipsio (talk) 16:20, 22 January 2015 (UTC)

Thank-you very interesting. (In regards to your Bishop comment, it is clear that he would not be called this in everyday parlance; but strictly speaking that would be his rank). ΙΣΧΣΝΙΚΑ-888 (talk) 00:42, 28 January 2015 (UTC)

About one type of links on "Eastern Orthodox liturgics" calendar pages

Dear ΙΣΧΣΝΙΚΑ-888, there is many links on many pages like this: http://days.pravoslavie.ru/en/Days/20140420.htm All they steers one to "404" page. My poor English and my ignorance in bot's matter not allows me to write bot to change in ALL links "days.pravoslavie.ru/en/Days" section on this: "orthochristian.com/calendar". If You can do it - do it please! And we all can saw not "404" but real actual page: http://orthochristian.com/calendar/20160420.html Cordially, Александр Васильев (talk) 09:10, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

Thank-you it is a good idea. Their new site is here, for example: http://orthochristian.com/calendar/20151004.html . However I also do not know how to wite a "bot" either. Over time I can go back and manually update the links but that would take a long time. Maybe someone else reading this can help? Appreciate the suggestion. Best, ΙΣΧΣΝΙΚΑ-888 (talk) 12:27, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

If I could know English good! :( 1) It can eat off a great lot of time if You'll work manually! Maybe You can write a request for bot to some Admins of en-Wiki? 2) Please actualize Your example of link: http://orthochristian.com/calendar/20161004.html instead http://orthochristian.com/calendar/20151004.html ;) Александр Васильев (talk) 20:12, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

I wrote a message to Soupforone in his User talk. Hope he can help us. Александр Васильев (talk) 05:53, 29 October 2016 (UTC)

Greetings Александр Васильев! I'm not sure how to code the bots, but I could fix the urls manually. This could take forever, though. Also, is the correct suffix "htm" as with pravoslavie or "html" as with orthochristian? Cheers-- Soupforone (talk) 14:48, 29 October 2016 (UTC)

Cheers, Soupforone! Thank You for answer! The correct suffix is "html", like here: http://orthochristian.com/calendar/20160420.html (When I try "htm" I see "404"). Александр Васильев (talk) 18:57, 29 October 2016 (UTC)

I just had a look. There are at least several hundred of the urls, but it seems feasible. Cheers-- Soupforone (talk) 03:37, 30 October 2016 (UTC)

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:09, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

Dear colleague, it seems that Your chahges duribg last monthh or more conflict with Wiki-rules. I'm not Wiki pro, but I see few undos made by User:Ira Leviton with comment: "Replaced html coding with wikicoding". For example see this:

Pisarz12345 need to be banned?

Dear colleague, I already requested and prevented and alerted him, in English and in Russian, but he continues to adding of not-venerated persons. My English is so poor, and I cannot write to Admins intelligible. I hope You can do it! And another point. There is many precedents in "Eastern Orthodox liturgics" when added a not-venerated persons. Often this addings have links to the https://orthochristian.com/calendar/ , specific in "Another commemorations". This ones provokes some users Like Pisarz12345 to going this way. Now I decided to start deleting such points of not-venerated persons if I meet such points during my work in Wiki. Александр Васильев (talk) 11:07, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

Hello Александ. Yes I agree that this matter with User:Pisarz12345 needs to be flagged to the Admins now. He has been told both by yourself and by me not to add un-venerated persons to the lists of Eastern Orthodox Saints, yet he blatantly continues to do so. With his edits, he continues to add un-venerated persons to the lists, without producing even one valid reference or footnote to a valid Orthodox Church source (or Synaxarion); and the link that he does provide, to the encyclopedic site "Drevo" do not count as a valid source in this case. Incidentally, I have noticed that User:Pisarz12345 has already been BLOCKED INDEFINITELY on the POLISH WIKIPEDIA (see here), so there is already a pre-existing pattern of disruptive behaviour on his part. If you can please initiate the action here on Wikipedia with the Admins, I will certainly participate and provide my feedback as well. Let me know if you can begin the process with Admin... ΙΣΧΣΝΙΚΑ-888 (talk) 12:22, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

Dear ΙΣΧΣΝΙΚΑ-888, user Pisarz12345 still continue vandalism and war of editings. Your request on my talk page was rejected by Administration: "If you need more help or have additional questions, please reapply the {{admin help}} template, or contact the responding user(s) directly on their own user talk page." I don't exactly understood this. I don't know when one can get a list of Admins... I hope You can proceed to try and write to some of Admins personal. - Александр Васильев (talk) 14:36, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

I use reliable sources like Drevo, Other commemorations paragraph is for not canonized but venerated persons, like: Hieromonk Arsenius of Valaam Monastery (1853), Schemamonk Theodore of Svir (1822) or orthers. Secondly Potitus of Gargara you are insinuating is not venerated is in the official menologium of ROC, like Patricius of Vladimir but you are too lazy to check the sources I linked. Pisarz12345 (talk) 14:53, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

1) "Drevo" in which I am an old and active user, is not ORIGINAL source. If You want to translate some information from "Drevo" here, You'll not to be so lazy and refer to original sources from "Использованные материалы"! It'll be correct. 2) Here in Wiki is a list of CACONIZED saints, NOT a list of not venerated OFICIALLY by the Orthodox Church! Don't enter a confusion here. 3) STOP THE WAR OF EDITING! You CAN"T undoing the undo's of rest user WITHOUT CONSENSUS!

P. S. Ко всему прочему, думаю, Вы прекрасно понимаете по-русски и отдаёте себе отчёт в том, что вломились в этот раздел как слон в посудную лавку. Но Вы здесь не один! Люди годами собирают здесь информацию не для того, чтобы Вы перевернули всё с ног на голову! - Александр Васильев (talk) 16:23, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

You should firstly check your verified sources, nextly you should know that Latin Saints of Roman Patriarchate is not a official source, and that the site was created by defrocked priest.

Secondly other commemorations paragraph is for not canonized but venerated persons, like: Hieromonk Arsenius of Valaam Monastery (1853), Schemamonk Theodore of Svir (1822) or orthers.

Last, the orthodox calendar is a list of canonized saints not CACONIZED saints. Pisarz12345 (talk) 18:34, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
