Hello, I'm Manticore. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Manti  core  03:16, 14 December 2022 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Hermes, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you. — Manti  core  03:21, 14 December 2022 (UTC)

Hermóðr is considered the messenger of the gods in Norse mythology. Wreck!tRalph89 (talk) 03:27, 14 December 2022 (UTC)

Norse equivalent.
Your Norse equivalent needs updating, messenger of the gods in Norse is hermod or Hermóðr. Was hoping you would update. Wreck!tRalph89 (talk) 03:26, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
 * It could be updated, but it needs a reliable source first. Geogene (talk) 04:27, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Ok, no worries, just happened to see it, and someone who appreciates what was done, thought it would be ok to edit, I don't want to cause issues. Wreck!tRalph89 (talk) 04:41, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh, no problem. I flagged that sentence in the Hermóðr article about being the messenger of the gods, because it should also have had a source, but it doesn't. Someone will fix that eventually, or delete it. Geogene (talk) 04:52, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
 * True, thank you for replying and getting back to me, hope it gets all worked out, thanks again. Wreck!tRalph89 (talk) 05:02, 14 December 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi - I'm here on the same errand. I've removed some unsourced material regarding equivalence (in the Juno (mythology) article, and tagged the claim of Ops' equivalence to Rhea (still looking for support for that). All Infobox contents should really be supported by secondary sources in the main article body; if we make these claims without support, they tend to stay that way, and the Infobox slowly fills up with unsupported claims. The only sure-fire equivalents tend to be Roman and Greek - and sometimes not even those. Infoboxes are not the best receptacles for nuanced or otherwise subtle material.

Ok, understandable. Thanks for letting me know. Wreck!tRalph89 (talk) 00:09, 21 December 2022 (UTC)

Hermes' equivalent.
Hello again, and thanks for removing Odin as Hermes supposed equivalent. I'm not sure where it has come from, but there seems to be a widespread belief that the individual deities of every pantheon are (or somehow must have) religious or mythological equivalents. Well... see the Hermes talk page, and others.

Please don't forget to leave an edit summary! I very nearly reverted what seemed at first an inexplicable removal (on closer examination it turned out to be a good edit on your part). Haploidavey (talk) 12:09, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
