From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Since my source was requested for my original posting, it was from Funk & Wagnalls Standard Dictionary of Folklore, Mythology, and Legend ISBN 0-06-250511-4 Nagelfar 22:32, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Copyvio?

[[Quuxplusone]] suspects that this article (specifically this version) is a copyright violation, but without a source this can not be definitively determined. If this article can be shown to be a copyright infringement, please list the article on Wikipedia:Copyright problems. If you are certain that the article is not a copyright violation, you should give evidence below. Please do not remove this tag without discussion.

The last paragraph of the article is written in an early-20th-century scholarly tone very different from most Wikipedia articles. I suspect it's copied directly from the Funk & Wagnalls Dictionary mentioned above. Copying other people's work, attributed or not, is copyright infringement, unless the work is old enough to be public domain. (1984 isn't old enough. :) --Quuxplusone 08:22, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
