A fact from this article was featured on Wikipedia's Main Page in the On this day section on July 16, 2008.

Is there a St. Helier Day? The Jade Knight 22:23, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

16 July - the Parish normally timetables some events during the week under the title St. Helier Week and the pilgrimage is usually held on the nearest Sunday. Man vyi 05:18, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

MARCULF : MARCOUF !

It might be embarrassing for foreigners to find Saint MALCULF alternately with his British and with his French name MARCOUF. It should be said, that MARCOUF is the Frech form of his name.Omenvorte 22:49, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The article uses Marculf consistently in the text, and provides the French version the first time he's mentioned in explanatory parenthesis regarding the associated placename. Sources are quoted which use Marcouf. Quite why this should embarrass anyone is mysterious to me. The linked article Saint Marculf provides the name variants.

Cunibert

The lifetimes of St Cunibert and St Helier do not overlap. According to the article, Helier's parents prayed to Cunibert before Heliers birth but according to the article on Cunibert he was born 45 years after Heliers death. 80.6.159.120 22:38 8 March 2008 (GMT)

"According to the hagiography, Romard discovered Helier’s body on the beach still clutching his head in his hands, placed it in a boat and set off for the mainland. The boat, guided by the hand of God, arrived at Bréville-sur-mer (Manche) where a reputedly miraculous healing spring arose on the spot where Helier’s body rested overnight"

can we add something that explains to children and the weak minded that these claims are of course completely and utterly ridiculous? it is not made sufficiently clear that these claims are completely and utterly untrue. encyclopedia are meant to help establish facts, not present fantastical stories in such a way that gullible people could interpret them as having some factual basis.
