Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Simplified Manual of Style

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome! Doug Weller talk 16:48, 17 May 2019 (UTC)

Using the word mythology is not hate speech
We even have Category:Mythology by religion. See also Category:Mythology and of course Mythology. Doug Weller talk 16:51, 17 May 2019 (UTC)

"Mythology" is a perfectly fine word.
The word mythology is the name of a field of scholarly inquiry. Under an academic definition, mythology is the body of stories associated with a particular culture that have immense cultural and/or religious importance to members of that culture. In its academic sense, the word has no implications of whether or not those stories are true. Thus, the story of the Pilgrims' arrival at Plymouth Rock and the First Thanksgiving could be considered an American myth, because of the immense cultural significance this story holds in the modern United States.

History and mythology are not the same thing, however. History deals with examining different accounts and analyzing them skeptically to sort out the truth of what really happened; whereas mythology deals with studying stories for the sake of understanding those stories and the cultures that developed them. Calling mythology "mythology" is not "hate speech" in the slightest. I would like to request that you please refrain from changing the word "mythology" to "history" in articles on Wikipedia. If you continue your disruptive behavior, you may find yourself indefinitely banned from Wikipedia. —Katolophyromai (talk) 20:38, 19 May 2019 (UTC)

 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
