From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I made your page Olympianism a redirect because it doesn't add any additional content to what is presented in Hellenic polytheism and it currently exists as a dictionary entry. It is official Wikipedia policy that Wikipedia is not a dictionary, so articles that are no more than dictionary entries are supposed to either be redirected or transwikied to Wiktionary, which is a dictionary.

If you'll look on Talk:Hellenic polytheism, you'll see that all the articles for variations on names for reconstructionist/revivalist-type Greek religion (including Dodekatheism) already redirect there, and an explanation for why. This was a decision that was hammered out among the people who were working on the articles at the time. If there are some insights particular to the Olympian strain of Hellenic polytheism that need to be incorporated into Wikipedia's account of Hellenic polytheism, please add them to the main article so that people will be able to find them. Thanks. - AdelaMae ^{(talk - contribs)} 20:07, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Olympianism

I would encourage you to expand Graeco-Roman paganism, which is just a disambig at the moment, but one Yahoo group does not a religion make. - AdelaMae ^{(talk - contribs)} 20:00, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
