[edit] Commune

A commune with Saint Pantaléon as its protective patron is not an "other use" in the normal sense. I hope it will be permitted to continue to list the communes here, as well as at the newly-created Saint Pantaleon (disambiguation). The geographical concentration of named communes reflects cult, as always. It's not an irrelevancy really. --Wetman 09:55, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] What about the name ...

Pantelejmon ... should it be added? --evrik 14:55, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

The long i is employed only in initial positions-- Iudea-- final positions-- Pamphilij-- or in between other vowels-- Sequoja. This is orthography only, not a "spelling". --Wetman 17:19, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
  • What does that mean in the context of this photo Image:Icon 01028 Sv. vmch. Pantelejmon Celitel'.jpg --evrik 19:14, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
"Holy Greatmartyr and Healer Panteleimon." And to amplify Wetman's point, this would be a matter of preferential transliteration. The "i" instead of the "j" is the most common form in English. The "j" might be used in some standard transliterations from Slavic languages. TCC (talk) (contribs) 20:25, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Plea for expansion

The article should cover Panteleimon's veneration in Russia in more detail. The origin of the cult: the monastery in Cologne, its ties with Gytha of Wessex, the miraculous healing of her son Harald, whose son Iziaslav II is baptised as Panteleimon, Rossikon is established on Mt. Athos, the churches to his name built in Novgorod and Halych... But perhaps I'm too naive here, considering that Paraskevi is still a stub and Theodore Stratelates not started at all, despite all my campaigning to improve the coverage of Eastern Orthodox saints? --Ghirla -трёп- 10:13, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

We'd help if we could, Ghirlandajo.--Wetman 22:05, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
It sounds like you know quite a bit. Please help us! Moonbug 08:45, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Information not covered

I just picked up a book, Encyclopedia of Saints, 1995, Alpine Fine Arts, ISBN 0-88168-226-8

It has quite a bit of information not covered by this article. I will be adding to it soon. I ask those editors who have a stake in this article and have brought it to this point to be patient with me while I do my best to incorporate the information I have into what has been put up already.
