Welcome. I am Canute Saint, a nickname inspired by my relative Saint Canute, otherwise known as Canute IV, King of Denmark from 1080 until 1086. Of ancient lineage in England and later also Scandinavia, I belong to a family that for 500 years were military and economic supporters of the Holy See, including the sponsorship of monasteries, their clergy, and the production of books. One of my male-line ancestors actually dined seated next to the pope. Was it thus God's will that I, on 21 April 2025, became the first to add Pope Francis's deathdate to his Wikipedia biography? I am now officially a deaditor, but I think I'll stick to editing articles about noble and royal families, a work in which I am assisted by an abundant library of history books. Life's too short to yearn for such microfame. Did you know that King Hakon IV of Norway gave his English counterpart Henry III a polar bear in year 1252? It was kept in the Tower of London, and swam in the River Thames.
