Ares was the hated son of Zeus and was in love with Aphrodite. behind Aphrodite's husband they fooled around.
Someone just messed with this page, so if someone here could revert it to the previous version that would be a good thing. I tried but I think I made it worse...
[edit] Hey Ares' Guys
he is such an interesting person, his special powers are cool!!
We need to turn this into a disambiguation page, and move the god-related content to its own article. Tronno 02:38, Jan 19, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Quality
This page has a fair bit of information, but it doesn't read like an encyclopedia article at all. It's just a jumble of random facts. A better intro would be nice, and a different section on Ares-related myths. I might give it a shot, but the reason I'm here is 'cause I don't know all that much about him... --Niten 19:00, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
- I've made a start at moving away from memories of Grandma's version of Bulfinch (or the afternoon-tv mythology of adventures of Xena, as above!). I entirely removed the detail of Artemis causing the death of the gigantes Otos and Ephialtes, for it relates to another episode connected with them, irrelevant to Ares. The rest is pretty much self-explanatory. --Wetman 17:39, 14 October 2005 (UTC)
Ares dies in the game God of War, which owns all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[edit] Second sentence incomprehensible
- Mars, the god of war that they inherited from the Etruscans, with Hellenic Ares, but maintained a different, less ambiguous relation with him.
It's completely unclear und ungrammatical. I don't know what it is supposed to say, so I can't fix it. AxelBoldt 02:35, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
- Fixed it. A result of vandalism. --Wetman 03:25, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] foolish rant
After reverting vandalism by User:God_of_War, I received the following at my Talkpage, which I scraped off and deposit here, for someone more patient than I to deal with (Wetman 16:09, 9 January 2006 (UTC)):
- "I have seen that you reverted my link from the Ares page. I am the God of War. I dare you to stand before me and prove that I am not." --User:God_of_War 15:15, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] "His favorite bird was the vulture."
I moved this sensible but original invention here. Is Ares ever termed "vulture-like"? Is the vulture ever called "bird of Ares"? Is Ares ever depicted with a vulture? The statement above could be rebuilt based on any of these and returned to the text. --Wetman 19:16, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] what happened to the amazons?
ares owned them, but then he gets owned by kratos why is there nothing about his role with the amazons?

[edit] "Hallihourthus"?
I hardly know anything about the Greek language or its mythology, but some Googling shows that the name "Hallihourthus" is only used on this page (and mirror pages/sites), nowhere else. However, a search for "halirrhothios" (as I've found scouring the internet for information on this, er, story) yields many more results, apparently half relevant and in English, along with the suggestion of "halirrhothius" by Google.
Then there's the spelling of "halirrhotios" (or -tius), for which there is a stub on English Wikipedia.
Somebody care to verify which is the correct romanised spelling? Laogeodritt 20:41, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
- Given the lack of responses, I've taken the liberty of changing this for the time being, as it seems correct. —Laogeodritt [ Talk | Contribs ] 19:08, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
- Halirrhotius --Wetman 20

[edit] ERROR: Translations wrong
In all other languages, this articles seems to link to "Hermes" instead of "Ares". Someone please correct, dont know how.Yarilo2 18:47, 24 August 2006 (UTC) ··thanksYarilo2 14:36, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Corrected one bit of vandalism, but missed another.
While I restored "Consorts and Children" (and, I think, used an improper summary, now that I see how it displays in the history page), I missed this one. Seems a bit odd to do two separate reverts in close succession, so: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ares&diff=prev&oldid=106361088 Abramul 20:52, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] incorrect
This isn't specificaly about ares, but Demeter and Dionisus are not Olympians. They did not reside in mt. olympia and are the god/goddess of the EARTH. 24.113.73.22 16:56, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Enyo and Ares?
Why does the article say that Enyo was Ares' sister and companion, and later say Enyo is ARes' daughter from an unknown mother? Watto the jazzman 06:52, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
