fixing broken sig (and other minor fixes)
At best, any given year will only have a handful of events which might deserve a mention on OrthodoxWiki, so even the biggest year articles would simply consist of a list of a handful of article links at most. For such an aggregation of events such as would be provided by having year articles, this function is already served by the [[Timeline of Church History]] (which can, of course, always be expanded). It is my view that making year articles would clutter up OrthodoxWiki unnecessarily.
In the future, by the way, if you have suggested revisions for the official style manual, you may find it most helpful to address them on [[OrthodoxWiki talk:Style Manual]]. &mdash;[[User:ASDamick|{{User<font color="blue"><b><i>Dcn.

::Hi Dpr, for the record, I agree with [[User:ASDamick]|Rdr. Andrew]]. I agree that there are a lot more articles that could be imported from Wikipedia, although I think working slowly to make sure we adapt the articles properly for OrthodoxWiki is more important than mass importing. Also, many articles do not need to be replicated here. Many articles from the "Eastern Christianity Portal" or [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Eastern_Orthodoxy Category:Eastern_Orthodoxy], as well as related articles such as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filioque_clause] could happily be imported. Others, having to do with Christianity more generally could simply be referenced if need be. If it doesn't directly have to do with Orthodox Christianity, it's much better to link, I think. That way we benefit from all the work and improvements people will put into the Wikipedia articles too. Hope that helps! [[User:FrJohn|Fr. John]]
