Saint Enogat
Open-knowledge reference entry
Saint Enogat was a Breton saint and the fifth or sixth Bishop of Saint-Malo. His feast is 13 January.
Enogat was Abbot at Saint-Méen and Bishop of Aleth (now Saint-Malo). He restored the abbey of Saint-Méen and was noticed for his talents as administrator. He obtained for his abbey the possession of the abbey of Gaël. He collaborated with Conwoïon at the Abbey of Redon for the establishment of new monastic rules and was -- it is said -- at the origin of the election of the abbots by the members of the community.

Why this record matters
The phrase “open-knowledge reference entry” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 10, 2024. The linked authority identifier is Q3463768. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
