Now up to date on August --evrik 16:45, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Intro

I'm not sure how to rephrase it, but the intro here should not be about the WikiProject. It should instead detail what, exactly, a saint is. —Mi ra 08:36, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Take a crack at it. --evrik 16:45, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Candidate Saints

Is there room on this portal for candidate saints (venerable as well as blessed)? Just a thought. Scolaire 19:50, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Like who? --evrik 19:57, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Help

I am willing to help out with updating the portal. --Sir James Paul, La gloria è a dio 22:57, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Good. --evrik ^(talk) 22:55, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Updated

I just finished updating this page. I added a new section Saints by Country. --Lord Balin 03:40, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

I trimmed it back. --evrik ^(talk) 22:55, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] News section

I question the usefulness of this particular section of the portal. I'm not really sure that there actually is a lot of "news" in this particular field, other than perhaps recent canonizations, etc. Would the rest of you mind if the section were to be removed or changed to something else? I personally would favor removal. However, if others would want to replace it with something else, I would propose trying to set up an automated changing of the listing of saints and others included on the various liturgical calendars for the day. I'm not sure exactly how to set that up, if it's even possible, though. John Carter 18:24, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
