[edit] St. Blazey

The village of St. Blazey in the parish of St. Blaise in Cornwall, UK is named after St. Blaise.

[edit] Deletion of a fictional character with the first name Blaise

Where do we stop? And what about the many hundreds of historical people whose first name was Blaise (to start with Blaise Pascal)? The business about St. Blaise being associated with erotic asphyxiation is patent nonsense.... The article should probably be renamed St. Blaise, and any other legitimate Blaise stuff, like the software package, get its own page. — Bill 19:18, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I've never heard this business about erotic asphyxiation either. Blaise 22:11, 2005 Jun 17 (UTC)

It's been lying around here for a while, but I checked it out and I think you're both right. I can't find muchg evidence of currency for this usage outside WP. Whether it's a hoax or just very espteric knowledge I don't know, but since three of us have failed to verify it, I've removed it. - Just zis  Guy, you know?

[edit] Move

There was some other uses that should go on a Disabiguation page, leaving this for the Saint Blaise. Trying to clear off some Cruft. Dominick (TALK) 17:19, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Discussion

I fixed some cut and paste moves that had separated the page content of the main article from its edit history. I really don't care that much about whether the main article is at Blaise or Saint Blaise. But I think the disambiguation page should be at Saint Blaise (disambiguation) (the few items pertaining to the unmodified "Blaise" can be clarified with an inline comment). older≠wiser 12:54, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

What happened is a bunch of "Blaise", plain Blaise entries popped up. They were on the Saint-Blaise page as a disambiguation. The Blaise (disambiguation) would handle all those, and the plain Blaise entries. Dominick (TALK) 13:29, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
So are you suggesting one or two disambiguation pages? That is, having both Saint Blaise (disambiguation) and Blaise (disamiguation) or moving Saint Blaise (disambiguation) to Blaise (disambiguation)? I'd be OK with the former (though, I'm not sure it's necessary). I don't agree with the latter, as most of the items on the page explicitly refer to Saint Blaise--the unmodified Blaise items almost seem an afterthought. older≠wiser 15:13, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
Surely one dab page is enough? And I see there is only one: Blaise now redirects to Saint Blaise (disambiguation), and I've fixed a couple of others too. - Just zis  Guy, you know? [T]/[C] AfD? 17:37, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

I've moved Saint Blaise (disambiguation) to Blaise (disambiguation). I hope that was what you wanted... —Nightstallion (?) 09:44, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

No, most of the terms on the page are uses of Saint Blaise. The uses of Blaise are almost superfluous, as they do not even have articles. older≠wiser 13:13, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

The following external reference trips the filter: [http://www.fisheaters.com/customstimeafterepiphany4.html Feast of Saint Blaise] Seems harmless on the surface. --Wetman 20:35, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
