Martyred?

With regards to Severianus:

Is the verb "martyred" neutral? I feel like it should say he was killed and is considered a martyr by (insert name of the group that considers him a martyr). But I don't know enough to make the edit right, it could be Catholics, Roman Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, Christians as a whole, etc. Aozeba (talk) 04:00, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a bit confused. Is your conjecture that noone should be called a martyr or just this person? Toddst1 (talk) 04:39, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

He seems to have been removed. see http://www.boston-catholic-journal.com/roman-martrylogy-in-english/roman-martyrology-february-in-english.htm#February_21st St Severian for this day. Should be added back. The question of the word 'martyr' is a good one. Is it neutral? 142.163.195.93 (talk) 21:31, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
