Suggestion for a 'Latest Church news' feature on OrthodoxWiki homepage
The items under this rubric would be linked to relevant entries in OrthodoxWiki, for example:
- a news item about the new primate of the Malankara Church [1] would be linked to OrthodoxWiki page about that Church (if any exists),
- [2] -> link to OrthodoxWiki pages about Church of Cyprus and Bartholomew I
- [3] -> link to OrthodoxWiki pages about Church of Jerusalem and Theophilus III, etc.
Update frequency: ideally daily, but perhaps every 2-3 days or weekly to reduce the burden of editing/updating it Possible sources: official Church pages, Christian newsagencies, and news aggregators like http://news.google.com (search using suitable keywords)
