Dionysus and Bacchus
Dionysus and Bacchus are essentially the same god but renamed into the later by the Romans. Can anyone else verify with this?

Who is Gary Bacchus on the disambiguation page?

Iacchus vs Bacchus
How come Iacchus has a page at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iacchus

But going to /Bacchus takes you to a disambig page that links directly to Dionysos (sp?) and mentions nothing of the Iacchus page? I thought Iacchus and Bacchus and Dionysos were all the same, which makes having Iacchus and Dionysos on separate pages make no sense, unless we are going to have Bacchus also point to the Iacchus page.

someone wanna address this? I'm not well-versed on editing and wikipedia rules, and dont have much time other than to bring things to attention.

Bacchus → Bacchus (disambiguation) — Most of the references here are derivatives of the Greek/Roman god Bacchus/Dionysus. As such, it seems appropriate to have Bacchus redirect to Dionysus, with a at the top. I would just do it, but there's already a redirect at Bacchus (disambiguation).

 * Support. A very good point. The main use of Bacchus is clearly the god. -- Necrothesp (talk) 16:24, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Support, I think the god is the primary usage. Powers T 19:25, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
