[edit] Holy Fire

Thanks. I saw that edit but was unable to decide what to do with it. I see it could use some copyediting at the very least. The editor who inserted it also didn't seem to understand that he was contradicting the "criticism" already present and that he was altering the context of a footnote. I suppose I could at least add a {{fact}}, although I was trying to assume good faith and it's not a well-footnoted article otherwise. There are obvious counterarguments, since this is one more demonstration of a possible mechanism that doesn't match the way things are done -- the patriarch's candles are sealed into the tomb several hours prior, and pilgrims' candles are purchased from street vendors an unpredictable amount of time before the ceremony -- but if I were to point this out it would be correctly identified as original research. Perhaps this has been said by someone citable, but it would be in Greek and I don't have access to Greek sources. TCC (talk) (contribs) 09:05, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
