Fork this, please?

[edit]

Since this article refers to three different people, it would make sense to better distinguish them, and perhaps to split this into three different articles with dablinks. 96.231.17.32 (talk) 20:23, 29 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Four now. — LlywelynII 11:09, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I suppose the problem is... well, per policy, we should fork 'em out and just interlink them... but they had the same saint days and were so conflated that the original girl was essentially forgotten and is dealt with as a footnote to the legend. Of course, if we were dealing with the whole myth at one place, we'd need to merge in Margaret the Virgin and Marina the Monk as well... — LlywelynII 13:06, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Done: Pelagia the Virgin, Pelagia of Tarsus, Pelagia of Tinos. — LlywelynII 14:25, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
My understanding is that, this page is only for Pelagia the Penitent, also guide for another Pelagia. Is that right? Because, I wrote two Pelagia's articles in jawp. one is for Pelagia the Penitent (as Pelagia of Jerusalem) and other is for Pelagia the Virgin (as Pelagia of Antioch). I'd like to put a correct language-link from jawp. —Strangesnow (talk) 06:32, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
In relation to this, should the first line read "distinguished FROM" rather than "distinguished "AS"? The latter could be taken to mean that these are different titles for the same person. 134.153.32.123 (talk) 18:43, 7 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Which Eustochius?

[edit]

The Eustochius who translated her vita by Jacobus Diaconus from Greek to Latin - was he the 5th-century Eustochius of Tours to whom the WP article is dedicated? Thanks, Arminden (talk) 12:56, 25 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The historical Pelagia

[edit]

The article currently says that the historical Pelagia was Pelagia the Virgin. So who is this article about? Is the "legendary" subject of this article a composite created from several historical Pelagias? Or if Pelagia the Penitent etc. and Pelagia the Virgin are one and the same, should those articles be merged? Srnec (talk) 00:56, 21 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Use of proper pronouns for trans inclusive language

[edit]

I would like to suggest an edit to this and all other associated pages whereby making them more accurate to the gender identity of St. Pelagia as a male since it seems clear from history, as also stated in this article that he identified and presented as a male.

History

[edit]

I changed some wording with the history section and plan on moving information down to similar accounts to better differentiate between the different saints mentioned. Elektra Nat (talk) 17:22, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Changed up similar accounts and added information not previously there. Tried to be more clear about how these other women are different. Elektra Nat (talk) 17:26, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Queer Theory

[edit]

Started a section discussing the queer theory surrounding them. Elektra Nat (talk) 22:41, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for adding this section! it provides an important update to the current range of readings and interpretations of the saint's story,. Ctschroeder (talk) 01:12, 11 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
