Talk:List of angels

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

List of angels is supported by WikiProject Occult in order to expand, improve, and standardize articles related to the occult. Feel free to edit the article attached to this talk page and/or become a participating member.
??? This article has not yet received a rating on the Project's quality scale. Please rate the article and then leave a short summary here to explain the ratings and/or to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the article.

The purpose of this page is to provide a quick reference for the names of angels in the Judeo-Christian-Islamic tradition and various other sources. Although the entry for angels contains a number of examples, a situation analogous to the demons/list of demons has arisen, and since the original entry is not meant to function as a reference, this page may serve that purpose akin to the Hierarchy of angels entry that is also separate from the main Angel article.

If you choose to add an entry, please follow the convention of the existing names: name (with Wikipedia link if it exists) and then origin if it is known. This will provide a starting point for individuals seeking to know more about the names listed in the article. Zahakiel 22:50, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lucifer

Shouldn't Lucifer be added to this page? He was an Angel before he fell. I'll add him now but you can always remove him again later. ≈ Seraph 15:32, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Unlike many fallen angels and demons, there are references in religious literature to Lucifer before his actual fall, (e.g., Isaiah 14) so I think it is an appropriate entry for this list. Zahakiel 21:22, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
