Links edit

I got rid of the link to Doso, both on this page and on Metanira. If you follow the link for Doso, it goes to an disambiguation page with essentially no information about the myth. Quae legit (talk) 15:06, 18 July 2011 (UTC)Reply


Guosherry (talk) 00:13, 11 October 2016 (UTC) "Instead, Demeter chose to teach Triptolemus the art of agriculture and, from him, the rest of Greece learned to plant and reap crops. He flew across the land on a winged chariot while Demeter and Persephone, once restored to her mother, cared for him, and helped him complete his mission of educating the whole of Greece in the art of agriculture.” This needs a citation, perhaps the Homeric Hymn to Demeter (http://www.uh.edu/~cldue/texts/demeter.html) In fact, the Homeric Hymn to Demeter should probably included in the references for the entire article.Reply

This article should also include more sources in addition to the Kerenyi book which is rather old (1967). Perhaps there is new research or new material found on Triptolemus

Btw if you want more citations, I can give them to you, just don't be so quick to revert these edits and give me a second, especially when most of this stuff is already in foreign language wiki articles anyways. Akhshartag (talk) 08:19, 27 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi Akhshartag, please see MOS:INFOBOXPURPOSE, which states that infoboxes should summarize (and not supplant) key facts that appear in the article. This means that information appearing in the infobox must both be sourced as well as mentioned in the article. Information should only be added to infoboxes after it is sourced, mentioned in the article, and if it is important enough to be considered a "key fact" about the article's subject. Also, it is generally asked that section headings on talk pages do not address a specific user (see WP:TALKHEADPOV). – Michael Aurel (talk) 08:39, 27 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
