Talk:Elements of the Cthulhu Mythos

Removed pending citation

The following entries were removed pending a citation of their connection to mythos. If you can explain how these elements are connected to the mythos — and can cite a mythos-related story or other published source that contains the element — then please do so and restore to article. Note: we already seem to be using a very broad canonization (probably too broad); hence, I recommend reining in some of the more dubious candidates. Also: please see Wikipedia:Verifiability for an explanation of why reliable sources are important.

  I can't find any source that connects M'Bwa to the Cthulhu mythos.

  I found this one on a message board, but can find no verifiable source. Does it appear in a published role-playing game supplement?

  Harms' Encyclopedia Cthulhiana lists this as a "[k]ingdom beyond the edge of the world where ... the light goes away when it is put out and the water leaves when the sun disappears." He attributes its origin to Arthur Machen's "The White People".

Fictional locations

• [[Naat (Cthulhu mythos)|Naat]]

• • Mappo no Ryujin is from the Call of Cthulhu campaign sourcebook "Secrets of Japan" by Michael Dziesinski. She's actually one of the primary entities dealt with in that book, and there is even a picture of her on the coverZigra (talk) 09:55, 7 August 2009 (UTC)Zigra

Bholes/Dholes

Dholes equals Bholes by the general spelling variation rule of the mythos, (f.ex. Cthulhu = Tulu), the similar creatures description and the fact that no author that use "Dholes" also use "Bholes" and the other way around. Rursus dixit. (^mbork³!) 22:38, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Hunters From Beyond

I'm not sure how to add it to the chart, but the Hunters From Beyond are ghoul-like beings that resemble gargoyles. They are from the Clark Ashton Smith story "The Hunters From Beyond" (NB). --Artturnerjr (talk) 17:48, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
