Things to leave in that might not otherwise be obvious: leave in dates (e.g., '''[[November 13]]'''), historic persons who have had an impact on the Church (even if not members, e.g., '''[[Arius]]''' or '''[[Julian the Apostate]]'''), events along those same lines (e.g., the '''[[Fall of Constantinople]]'''), and so on.
Also be sure to do searches on '''OrthodoxWiki''' to examine existing articles so that internal links might be made in a consistent way -- —for instance, use '''[[First Ecumenical Council]]''' (the established '''OrthodoxWiki''' way) instead of '''First Council of Nicaea''' (the established Wikipedia way).
Additionally, "Orthodoxize" the articles. Things which to secular scholars might appear to be biased might simply be a statement of truth for the Orthodox (e.g., "The Orthodox Church is the sole Church founded by Jesus Christ"). That doesn't mean that anything negative about the Church's members should be glossed over, but be sure to keep in mind that '''OrthodoxWiki''' is an ''Orthodox Christian'' website, and so things here are written and edited from that point of view.
