Some details from Greek Wikipedia article[edit]

I added a couple of details from the Phantis wiki and the Greek Wikipedia article about Santas. The latter seems to have a lot of information, and even a couple of references, but I do not know nearly enough Greek to go much farther. I notice that in Greek Wikipedia, the article is titled "Lakis Santas". I would guess that Apostolos is his given name and Lakis a nickname (by which he is better known), but that is just a guess. If so, we should probably move the article to Lakis Santas. This article could benefit from some attention from someone who knows enough Greek to gather details from the Greek article and look up some more references..

Nice work in starting this article! For the name, "Lakis" is the diminutive of "Apostolos" (via "Apostolakis"), but AFAIK he is universally known as "Apostolos", e.g. in history books, so the current title is OK. Constantine ✍ 11:26, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
