Objection to the deletion of some sections

[edit]

I objected to the deletion of "Popes" section _ The names been filtered until only Patriarchs with the title of saint are left and who has a feast day in Synaxarium _And the section of the seven angels who have a special status in the Coptic church and they are considered saints. links:

Thank you for only adding popes that are saints to the template.
As for adding angels as "saints", I think the identity of these figures as saints to Coptics should be indicated elsewhere (such as on the List of Coptic saints or in the article of the Seven Archangels) and then cited in that article. This is the best way for several reasons. tahc chat 20:53, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
what is inhibited from being added here. Is there any law in Wikipedia that prevents their presence here, in addition to their presence in catholic saints Template too - So this is not a religious fault at the level of other Christian denomination - In addition, this Coptic belief is ancient and inherited since ancient times. thanks Egy writer (talk) 21:23, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I assume you are probably correct that they these archangels are called saints by Copts-- or at least some archangels by some Copts-- but Wikipedia is not based on my views nor yours. If you state these beliefs in the Wikipedia mainspace, where a knowledgeable person can read it, then there a much better chance of any errors being corrected of possible errors. I also cannot read the Coptic language website(s) cited above but other people could-- but not if these are only claimed here on a talk page. tahc chat 15:11, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
