It should be relocated at Santa Claus because in Saint Nicholas's Bones we have the in-narrative assertion that he is the same character as Santa Claus and Father Christmas.
Talk about it here or check the revision history for additional comments.
A Visit from Saint Nicholas must be referenced. Moreover, connections with Santa Claus are to be addressed.
These omissions are so great that the article's factual accuracy has been compromised. Check out the discussion page and revision history for further clues about what needs to be updated in this article.
Saint Nicholas was the bishop of Myra seven hundred years before the 1078. He was considered a miracle-maker. Legends about him included: he would have brought back to life some boys who had drowned in pickle barrels; he would have thrown bags of gold through an open window to save three sisters from poverty and prostitution; at a mother's request, he would have prayed so hard that he saved her son and his two friends from drowning in a storm. The Doctor was in Myra after the last of those deeds. He befriended Nicholas and preconned to him he would have been a saint loved by the children. The Doctor was present at his funeral indeed.(PROSE: Saint Nicholas's Bones)
