Eastern (Byzantine) Catholic Martyrology for February[edit]

This appears to have been dumped here all the way back in 2007 along with Eastern (Byzantine) Catholic Martyrology for January (also included in this nomination). It's not an encyclopedia article, it's a liturgical list. I have a feeling it's a copyvio from the source, but the source is now dead and archive.org isn't working for me for some reason so I can't confirm. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 06:47, 30 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I am not sure that COPY-VIO need be a problem. WP has a lot of lists. If I have a concern it is that a lot are the feasts of saints and martyrs who (as yet have) no WP article. That need not be a problem as one function of lists is to identify missing articles that are needed. I would add that a couple of red-links appear to be the result of typos. On the other hand, if we have such lists we should have twelve of them. I suspect there will be equivalent lists for the Catholic Church and possibly the Anglican or others. These should survive or be removed together. Peterkingiron (talk) 13:44, 5 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I came across the article while assembling a "list of lists of martyrs", so to speak, and didn't see any equivalent Catholic list aaaaand now literally having typed that it's occurred to me that it didn't occur to me at the time to search by calendar of saints vs. calendar of martyrology and that's why I didn't find anything useful. I feel genuinely dim now, to be honest.

Okay: having done a better search, it appears that all this information is better presented in a series of articles that are linked at Eastern Orthodox liturgical calendar. Those articles are organized by the day not the month and are exhaustive, accurate, and referenced. Rather than deletion, I think it might be better to redirect these articles to "Eastern Orthodox liturgical calendar" so people can find the most complete amount of information possible. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 17:09, 5 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
