isn't there some question about whether the good man died in Rome or Constantinople?[[User:Richardson mcphillips|Richardson mcphillips]] ([[User talk:Richardson mcphillips|talk]]) 22:40, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

As a follower of the Old Julian Calendar in my church life, I take issue with the dates of death for those where OS and NS are cited. Moschos died on 11th March OS, which, in the Gregorian Calendar occurs on 24th March. No issue there; but could it be stated that 24th March (OS) is in fact 6th April NS? As stated here, the writer implies that Julian Calendar churches celebrate his commemoration on 24th March (OS), which is not so. For us, 24th March NS ''is'' 11th March OS! The citing of OS & NS dates seems to be ambiguous. [[User:Sturcke Susan|Sturcke Susan]] ([[User talk:Sturcke Susan|talk]]) 11:12, 10 February 2014 AEDT
