The singular (Lotus-Eater) should be included, so that a search for "Lotus-Eater" will turn up "Lotus-Eaters".

Yeah definitely needs to be merged. They're virtually the same now anyway. Pydos 18:38, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

How about instead of merging, make Lotus-Eaters a disambiguation page, and make new articles for each of these that have more than just a sentance of info, such as the bands. Then remove the pop culture references on Lotophagi that don't have much at all to do with the greek mythology aside from the name. - Ravenous 19:28, 11 January 2006 (UTC)


I agree.

Ok, the pop reference list has been moved to The Lotus Eaters, but I kept the star trek one here as it makes more reference to the Odessey story. If any of the other references were more than just the name, feel free to add a note back to this page what that reference is. In addition to the new disambiguation page, I moved some things to new stubs - for the bands, tv. show, and short story. I worked on corrrecting the links, but could probably use some more work if anyone is willing... - Ravenous 18:40, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bad References

Some of the "pop culture" references are not really parallels to Lotus Eaters, especially Brave New World. Soma doesn't cause people to want to abandon reality, it just makes the reality they have bearable. 199.71.183.2 14:39, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
