This article should be longer--V7ndotcom elursrebmem 11:50, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

Yes, that's why there's a stub tag on it. Personally, I can't find much more to write about him though. TCC (talk) (contribs) 20:37, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Just a thought

in this section

It has also been suggested that he may be identical to Baraqyal, who is occasionally mentioned as a fallen angel.

it should say who suggested it,is it the catholics or Jehovah's witnesses? and if so write it as such with a citation

in the section iconography is that a general term or is it iconography in catholicism or Buddhism etc just to be specific I am not sure on this.

in the section patronage defining his responsibilities according to which faith and culture, it should say this and have a citation and also praying to the angel is that catholic tradition or a general Christian tradition, not all people in Christianity would believe in this ideology so you should state where it stems from and provide a citation.

also aren't angels void of sex, I mean they are neither female or male?? if so why is the being referred to as Him??

I am not confident enough to edit this article myself but I had these questions in my mind when I read it, perhaps someone with experience on the subject along with the articles creator could take on board some of my suggestions. for the record I liked the article and it interested me as in the catholic sense I suppose this being would be my guardian angel.
