William is definitely a saint but I can not find any reference to his canonization. He died in the year 1067, just a few decades before the canonization process was instituted by Rome.

Why has the Catholic Church not de-canonized Saint William of Norwich?

The Catholic Church has not de-canonized Saint William of Norwich because there has not been any conclusive evidence or formal request to challenge his status as a saint. Decanonization is a complex process that requires substantial evidence and deliberation, and there may not be sufficient grounds to initiate such a process for Saint William.

When and where was William of Roskilde born?

Where and when William of Roskilde was born appear to be unknown. We know that he died in 1070 at Roskilde in Denmark and was buried together with the king. (Upon the death of the king, whom he had worked hard to reform, and at Roskilde, the burial place of Danish kings, William, when he approached the kings remains, fell dead.) He had been an English priest, chaplain to Canute, King of England and Denmark. With the king he visited Denmark and, shocked by the ignorance, superstition and idolatry of the people, he decided to stay and preach the Gospel. Later he was appointed Bishop of Roskilde.

Is Saint William of Vercelli a patron saint?

The date is unknown. It is quite possible that William was never canonized as the official canonization process was not in place at the time of his death. He could have been elevated to sainthood by popular acclamation and approval of a local bishop. Pope Alexander III - William is not included in the list of saints canonized by Pope Alexander III nor does the Patron Saint Index list a canonization date for him.
