The majority of this article is copy-and-pasted from the Catholic Encyclopedia (the text from "Martyr under Diocletian..." through "...gave rise to local legends") -- it looks like the CE, published in 1911, should be public domain by now, but the article still shouldn't be a direct copy, should it?
Feel free to state your position on the renaming proposal by beginning a new line in this section with*'''Support'''or*'''Oppose''', then sign your comment with~~~~. Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's naming conventions.
Oppose as nationalism. The question here is not the correct spelling in Coptic or in modern Egyptian Arabic, neither of which would be using the Roman alphabet anyway, but in English. On that question, the Catholic Encyclopedia is (for all its flaws) likely to be as good a guide as anything. SeptentrionalisPMAnderson23:39, 9 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

I can't read the characters in the section about the origin of his name--all I see is squares. What language are the characters I can't see, and, how do enable my software to "see" them? Thanks. --Kenatipospeak!18:22, 2 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
Update: I downloaded Quivira 3.7 true-type fonts and put it in my Windows/Fonts folder. Now I can see characters instead of boxes at the Coptic language article, both Sahidic and Bohairic, but I still see boxes on the Saint Menas page. Appreciate any suggestions. --Kenatipospeak!19:08, 2 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
