Mythology

I will have to move the current substance of the mythology to "Queen Arete" or "Arete mythology". This information needs to be seperated. If somebody can help that would be greatly appreciated. WHEELER 19:00, 4 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Different senses of Arete

(copied from SF's talk page)

The reason I bolded "Arête" and put it as a new main entry was to try and distinguish it from all the meanings related to the Greek word "Arete", spelt without the circumflex. The way it's organised at the moment, it looks as if "Arête" is one of the meanings of said Greek word, notwithstanding the bit in brackets that says that it's etymologically unrelated. I'll admit my solution wasn't very elegant; can you think of a better way to distinguish the distinct senses (if indeed it's desireable that they should be distinguished)? --Blisco 19:22, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, that's reasonable enough. "Different derivations" is a fair enough way to divide the page, but the way I'd suggest to do that within the guidelines would be the rather odd:

Arête can refer to:

Arête, a thin ridge of rock that is formed by glaciers (etymologically unrelated to the Greek word).

Only one entry seems weird. If there were more articles that weren't related to the Greek derivations, it'd look less odd. Still, if you think that's important, go ahead and change it. SnowFire 00:03, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
