[edit] Zizilia
del wikipedia:verifiability. A series of Slavic myhtology by anons. No reputable traces on web, no references. mikka (t) 16:50, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. I have found potential references: http://www.geocities.com/mabcosmic/polish/pantheon.html, http://www3.sympatico.ca/chartreuse/AvatarsOfTheGoddess/Poland.htm, and http://www.lowchensaustralia.com/names/godsslavic.htm. Tim Pierce 17:05, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
- I've seen them all. These strange sites are not reputable sources. mikka (t) 17:10, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
- Is it possible that this is a butchered Anglicization of Dzydzilelya? I see references to this name in Polish and Russian pages, like: http://www.rastko.org.yu/antropologija/slovenska_mitologija.html, http://www.anita.f2o.org/bogovi.htm and http://slavanska-mifilogy.roskultura.com/5.html. I can't translate these myself but it looks like you have the background to do so. :-) Tim Pierce 00:17, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks for refs. One of them says that "Dzydzilelya" does not have roots in Slavic mythology, but an invention of the author of the 15th century chronicle, "History of Poland", Jan Dlugosz. these neopagans created a whole mess with true mythology, and I refuse to accept any reference from sites that look like www.anita.f2o.org or www.rastko.org.yu, which is someone's personal cruft. mikka (t) 00:36, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

- Delete. Even if misspelled, article topic lacks basic notability. Jtmichcock 03:44, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
- Strong delete per referrer. These articles on "wendish mythology" introduce unspeakable mess into encyclopedia. In this case, they fail to mention that the goddess was invented by a 15th-cent. Polish author before being revived by modern neopaganists. So delete until someone rewrites this entry. --Ghirlandajo 12:49, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
