Temples of Apollo
I think that it would be useful to add a section "Temples of Apollo" in the article "Apollo". Some information (or images) is from other articles e.g. Temple of Apollo (Syracuse), Daphne, Selinunte, Bassae, File: Tempel des Apollo Didymaeos in Milet.png  (wikipedia commons) ,File:Bassai Temple of Apollo Plan-fr.png (Wikipedia commons), or from extended bibliography. Since the article is semi-protected, can I add the section? jest 18:42, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

Thermopylae (poem)‎
I've reverted you there. A poem on its own isn't enough for an article, you'd need to show discussion about it. And anything like that should really be in the author's article. In any case, it was obviously a copyright violation. The website says clearly "No part of this site may be reproduced, stored in any form or by any means, without prior written permission of the publisher". It's a recent translation and translations are independently subject to copyright law. Dougweller (talk) 09:14, 24 September 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for your instructions. I didn't know that it was a copyright violation. There is a REDIRECT page, but nothing is mentioned for the poem in the main page.Jestmoon(talk) 12:32, 24 September 2014 (UTC)

Hi there, I am contacting you here as this seems to be the wiki you are most active in. There is currently an ongoing proposal with regards to having an ancient Greek Wikipedia, accompanied by an active incubator wiki that has plenty of articles already.

Labyrinth
Jestmoon, please refrain from making such edits. You added an unsourced Egyptian etymology which is original research, you adulterated a source (you replaced a proper citation to Beekes' Etymological Dictionary of Greek with an abbreviated one citing it as Greek Etymological dictionary (which is not the name of the book!)), you added a junk source (https://linearbknossosmycenae.com/tag/dapu/), you transcribed λαύρα as labra in violation of WP:GREEK. Such editing borders on vandalism. --Omnipaedista (talk) 12:32, 14 August 2020 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Aplu (deity)


The article Aplu (deity) has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "such a god doesn't seem to have ever existed an any actual sources. A Hurrian deity named Aplu is not mentioned in the following credible sources about Hurrian religion: G. Wilhelm, The Hurrians; P. Taracha, Religions of 2nd Millennium Anatolia; A. Archi, West Hurrian Pantheon and its Background; Reallexikon der Assyriologie; Václav Blažek proposes a Hurrian origin of the name (from a word for arrow) without mentioning the purported god 'Aplu' and places the Akkadian 'aplu' among outdated 19th century theories (with no mention of Nergal made), and R. Beekes in his article doesn't bring the purported 'Hurrian' Aplu at all while dicussing the possibility of Apollo's Anatolian origin and only mentions Aplu as Etruscan form developed -from- Apollo."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

 * I copied the name from the article Apollo. I agree with you, since modern scholars don't accept it. There is an old theory that the name of Apollo is deriven from the Babylonian "abullu" (gate).An inscription mentions "Apulunas". (Hrozny 1936). I don't know if modern scholars accept it.Jestmoon(talk) 10:20, 14 June 2021 (UTC) Jestmoon(talk) 12:54, 14 June 2021 (UTC)


 * I've reviewed all of the sources cited in the article, and none of them make the connections that it does. That Aplu is the Etruscan name of Apollo is not in question; whether the name might be etymologically related to a Babylonian word is only suggested by the sources mentioned in the PROD nomination, but again does not indicate that Apollo was a Hurrian deity, nor does it connect either name with Nergal.  The fact that Smintheus was an epithet of Apollo, presumed to mean "destroyer of mice" does not make him or his presumed antecedent a god of plague in another culture.  The only source cited in the article having to do with Babylonian mythology doesn't mention such a god—it's dated (not necessarily inaccurate), but doesn't support what it's cited for (the original date of publication ought to have been used anyway).  The source that mentions the Hurrians only says that the letter in question mentions both the Hurrian and Wilusan (probably Trojan) gods, and it's not even certain that Apollo is meant, but if he is, presumably he's mentioned as a Wilusan deity, not a Hurrian one.  If there's an inscription, as mentioned above, the context is not immediately apparent: can it be securely dated and attributed, and is it clear who or what it refers to?  The article has been deprodded, and no longer faces automatic deletion, but I can't see anything that supports its continued existence.  P Aculeius (talk) 17:02, 18 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I agree with you that the article can be deleted, since modern scholars don't accept that Aplu was a Hurrian deity. (However this theory existed in the article Apollo and must be deleted too). I have included long ago the theory of Hrozny in the article Agyieus. This is not related with Aplu.Jestmoon(talk) 19:50, 18 June 2021 (UTC)

Artemis
Hi Jestmoon, I have recently noticed your voluminous additions at Artemis. While I appreciate the effort you have clearly expended in your work there, I have some concerns. The article has gone from 8700 words to 20,000, and some of your additions appear to be only obliquely related, and a number are unsourced (and some contain typographical errors). Today alone, for example, you have added over 8000 bytes. I think it would be a good idea if you slowed down a bit. – Michael Aurel (talk) 11:35, 28 July 2023 (UTC)
