hi boo -- I am a little bit disturbed by your unexplained removal of references to ] etc. from ] and ]. If you wish to make the point that the runes are ''also'' used unpolitically by Asatru adherents, you are very welcome to add that information, citing your sources. This should be entirely uncontroversial. However, if you wish to ''remove'' information to the political usage of the runes, both historical and contemporary, you would need to argue your reasons on the articles' talk pages, particularly when the information you wish to remove is backed up by sources. Likewise, claims that the algiz rune is "more recognized" as "cultural badges" are inherently biased, and you absolutely need to cite what source you are basing the claim on. I realize that you are new to Misplaced Pages, and I am sure that you are editing in good faith. regards, ] <small>]</small> 20:10, 22 November 2005 (UTC) |

Not sure how familar, if anything, you are with MiniMoni's first album or even with the band themselves, but FYI, the "correction" you made on the martial music wikilink, changing it to just martial was wrong. --] 22:32, 20 December 2005 (UTC) |

:Hrm, inspecting the current Misplaced Pages definition for '']'', it seems some work needs to be done there to attempt to make it clear that the phrase itself may also refer specifically to anything militant, without the specific cannotations of the historical figure. In the mean time, I've gone back to the article I just edited and replaced it with ], since this is what I assume you're refering to. The article on ]/]/] is about a specific ] genre of music that emerged in Europe probably around 15 years ago. I seriously doubt that there's a connection to the two and I'm assuming it's just confusion based around the phrase, since ''martial music'' could potentially refer to any sort of military-influenced music. --] 22:39, 20 December 2005 (UTC) |

Hello Bloodofox |
|
|
Here Christophe, actual webmaster of both sites www.deathinjune.net and www.deathinjune.org - I wonder by the way if we haven't already been in contact in the past, but anyway... Please could you contact me on my email dij-fr@kerozene.phpnet.org or either kris-g@cegetel.net. I have a few elements to contribute to your excellent page about DIJ, and as I don't feel confortable at all with Wiki's system it'd be better to discuss it by email. I had started translating your page in French on the french wikipedia, but you've done a lot of updates since then, so....... I'll also ask Douglas if he's ok about adding a link to this wikipedia page on DIJ's official website. |
|
|
Thanks & take care. |

Nice to see some work going on at ]. Maybe we could collaborate somewhere? I'm currently working on ] among other things. - ] 18:46, 15 January 2006 (UTC) |

:Sounds good to me. From what I can see, you're doing an excellent job and I can definitely learn from your formatting. I'd like to help where and when I can. This sort of thing is why I'm using Misplaced Pages in the first place! The Havamal page needs major work, a list of translations would be especially beneficial. I just did a little clean up job for the moment to make it more presentable. The page itself needs major work for being such a major and important source for the subject, I hope to be able to help flesh it out as much as possible. ] 19:00, 15 January 2006 (UTC) |

==Swastika and OR== |
|
|
I have ''researched'' this. I have ''discussed'' this more times than I care to remember. There is ''no'' evidence that the Swastika played any role in Germanic paganism. The ] thing is debunked. I know of no Germanic Neopagan group that insists on using the Swasktika, other than OR. They are stuck with the "fylfot", and airily claim the symbol is part of their tradition for 5,000 years. This is not good "reconstructionism". In any case, it is up you to back up ''your'' claim. We agree that the OR claims the Swastika as "heathen". Name other groups. ] <small>]</small> 21:09, 17 January 2006 (UTC) |

=="Proto-Germanic"== |
|

I'm sorry, but how do you come up with this stuff? I can accept that you have a strong "Internet Heathen" viewpoint, and I'm fine with your adding of all sorts of Neopagan stuff found on the internet, but sometimes your statements are really pulled out of thin air. In this case, there is no case at all that these forms even remotely qualify as "Proto-Germanic", so why bother? ] <small>]</small> 08:58, 20 January 2006 (UTC) |
|
|
:Ouch. Allow me to clarify. You may be notice I've been going through and formatting a lot of articles lately. A lot of the Germanic Paganism articles are a mess and almost unreadable. I was attempting to condense a bunch of the info there and make an overview section for the ] article before making some redirect pages, which it could probably use. My mistake. |
|
|
|
|
|
:Unfortunately, I got started on something else and I forgot about it mid-way through and didn't go back to it. The article doesn't mention the "Othinn" spelling, which is variant for the name that is sometimes used, correctly or not. |
|
|
|
|
|
:I've been adding a bunch of stuff to the Germanic Paganism category too. I'm not sure exactly what's supposed to go in there and have just been collecting things that seem to be appropriate for it with mixed results, which I've been intending to ask about. |
|
|
|
|
|
:When have I pulled something out of ''thin air''? What's this about 'all sorts of neopagan stuff'? I back my additions up with references whenever possible and I'm personally far more interested in fact than someone's interpretation or personal spin on it, especially here. ''Internet Heathen''? Is that some sort of jab? Am I stepping on your toes or something? What's with the tone? ] 09:34, 20 January 2006 (UTC) |

::I won't deny you're doing some good work. But a lot of your additions are only barely defensible. By "thin air", I mean "google". Your idea of "backing up with references" seems to be "do a google search". This is fine, as a first step, but you seem quite reluctant to part with anything you found on the internet, even in the face of academic references. If you're interested in facts, we should get along fine. But you never came forward with the reference that that shoulder pad was designed as an Odal rune. Your reply to my criticism on Swastika was "do a google search" -- you removed the fact that OR argues for the "fylfot" as an ancient symbol, replacing it with "Neopagans as found on the internet". You seem fond of spiriting away solid references to fascist symbolism as "often found on the internet, also in unpolitical contexts". A lot of your edits are like this, you google something, and phrase whatever you came up with as "commonly found" or "often held". If you're interested in facts, consult the ''literature'', and come up front with what you have consulted. It is possible to discuss Neopaganism in encyclopedic style. Just, it is necessary to document exactly ''who'' holds ''what'', on ''what'' basis. Just treating Neopaganism as a fuzzy cloud to be probed by google searches won't do at all. I'm just tired of having to double check most of your edits, I am glad for your contributions, but you should really double check your own stuff rather than rely on other editors cleaning up after you. ] <small>]</small> 09:52, 20 January 2006 (UTC) |
