Factograf, a multilingual encyclopedia run by Haydamax Laboratory, has published original articles on 13,123 Christian saints. Each saint is described in several language versions at once, and the total number of such versions is about 157,000. The materials appeared in October 2026, and the latest language versions were added on 23 October.
The project is built around reading existing encyclopedic material. Factograf reads any of roughly 340 language versions of Wikipedia and displays the articles in its own layout, which is more convenient for reading. The site's interface works in 12 languages. In addition to material from Wikipedia, the platform publishes its own original articles, and readers can write texts and suggest edits. In this way, saints have become a separate large block of content within an already existing multilingual structure.
Articles about saints are available in all 12 interface languages. These include English, Ukrainian, Russian, German, Polish and French, as well as Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Czech, Japanese and Chinese. Each of these versions concerns the same saint, so comparable material appears in several languages at once. It is this multilingual coverage that distinguishes the collection from most individual encyclopedic sections.
The figure of 157,000 language versions means that, on average, each saint has more than ten texts in different languages. This indicates broad coverage, but it does not reveal how equally detailed these versions are, and the project description says nothing about this.
The materials do not report how editorial review of the texts is organized or what sources they are based on. It also remains unclear how Factograf's texts about saints relate to articles on Wikipedia: whether they duplicate them, are reworked from them, or are created anew. These questions are not addressed in the project description, so only limited conclusions can currently be drawn about the quality and origin of the materials.
