[edit] Hero cycle

Why hasn't someone added a section on the hero cycle? This would seem intergral to any discussion of a hero, especially the literary or film hero. I know that a link was crafted for Campbell, but I think this page needs more.

[edit] Query deletion

Why has my latest addition been reverted? Why aren't they heroes? All right, one of them is technically a heroine. PatGallacher 17:44, 2005 July 10 (UTC)

Might it make more sense to seperate the different definitions or types of heroes? This page just seems confusing since it's a conglomeration of so many different definitions (some quite different). It seems that there is a traditional mythological hero, Another type might someone who does outstanding deeds. Another might be roughly equivalent to the protagonist in a story. Glomming all the definitions together just makes for confusion. And then the hero list has all the different senses jumbled together as though they all mean the same thing.

[edit] Working man's hero

What about this type of hero?

[edit] "good guy" redirects here

Good guy redirects to hero, but we have other uses for the term, so what's wrong with adding a hatnote to the disambiguation page? 65.95.13.213 (talk) 05:39, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
