Arianism as a form of Christianity.

[edit]

Several times the article mentions that Clotilde was influential in converting her husband to Christianity, but it also mentions that Clovis was already an Arian. Wouldn't it be more correct to say that Clotilde help convert Clovis to Catholicism as Arians were already a Christian, albeit heretical, sect? IrishStephen (talk) 14:57, 24 November 2013 (UTC)Reply

The problem with this all is that Clovis being an Arian is an invention. The historical sources (and the vast majority of historians) deem him a pagan, who then converted to (Catholic) Christianity. That it was Catholic Christianity gave him an edge in this conquest of Gaul. Str1977 (talk) 15:02, 18 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Article Title

[edit]

The title of the article about St. Clotilde is 'Clotilde'. In every work of art depicting her, and every literary and historical reference for the past 1400 years, she is referred to as 'St. Clotilde'. The title of the article should be 'St. Clotilde'.

@Beloved female saints, this bio is titled this way because it follows Wikipedia convention; see MOS:SAINTS. All saint bios should follow this convention.
BTW, great user name. I have the same interest in female saints here, so it's nice to know that another editor has the same interest. You might be interested in Wikiproject Women in Religion. We're a very active project doing some good work here. I invite you to take a look at our project page, and attend some of our virtual events. Our next edit-athon is next week; shoot me an email if you're interested. Thanks and best, Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 03:05, 7 March 2026 (UTC)Reply
Thank you, that's so kind of you - I had thought of 'Saint' as an honorific & was sad to see her denied that title, but I do understand if this is Wikipedia convention. Yes, I would love to join the edit-athon. My apologies, I'm not terribly familiar with Wikipedia communications & don't know how to email you, but please let me know if I might help. Many thanks.

@Beloved female saints, we don't deny anyone any title, God forbid! ;) It's just how the community has chosen to handle it. But you're welcome, any time.
Here's how to email other users: WP:EMAIL. Alternatively, here's the zoom link you can use: WikiProject Women in Religion. See you soon, I hope. Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 19:55, 7 March 2026 (UTC)Reply
