If you get the information from a source as far back as 1911, do you need to mention it-Adrian?

But intellectual honesty requires you to cite such sources: if you use a source for information that is not common knowledge and do not cite it, you commit plagiarism, regardless of the age of the material. -- Someone else 07:37 1 Jul 2003 (UTC)
Put the information about Disney's 'Gargoyles' on the page 'Gargoyles'. Since a gargoyle, and the series distinct, they can safely belong on seperate pages.Skybunny 23:44, 21 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Perhaps I'm just making this up, but I'm pretty sure I heard this somewhere — doesn't "gargoyle" also refer to as some sort of mythical birdlike creature, capable of turning itself into stone? also i heard that when a gargoyl has sex withh another its baby is born stone and urns to life whan fully immersed in pure fresh water?

[edit] Speaking Abilities
I'm not sure if this is true but I've heard that it was also believed that gargoyles could speak when water ran out of their mouths, part of the reason they are used as gutters on ornate buildings.
[edit] Gargoyles in fiction
or perhaps Gargoyles in popular culture would get my vote. Carptrash 23:35, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
Are gargoyles historically oriented specifically, like towards a particular cardinal direction? I'm hoping someone has something better than 'east...yada yada...sunrise' unless, of course that is the case
