"Were" means "Man"

Most vampires in fiction are "Werevampires" (linguistic issues aside). Bunnicula is a rare exception.

Motif rather than motive

In para 6 and 7, does the author mean "motif" rather than "motive"? Motif is a recurring salient thematic element in a work of art, which is what is being described. Virgil H. Soule (talk) 13:42, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not Substantiated in Linked Article

Under the Egyptian category, it mentions a "cobra-headed Amunet," but when you go to the article about her, there's no mention of a snake head of any sort, and the picture of a depiction of her appears to show a human head. The only snake-like thing in the entire article is what appears to be a cobra in one of the example hieroglyphs.

I don't know if this is a false claim, a poorly summarized one, or an accurate one whose subject is somehow completely omitted in the subject article.

Hybrid beasts in folklore → Mythological hybrid – No justification for change in scope, or precedent for using the term "beasts". ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 07:45, 30 December 2023 (UTC) This is a contested technical request (permalink). – robertsky (talk) 12:58, 2 January 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. – robertsky (talk) 14:34, 11 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - folklore, mythology, legend, fairy tale. We can turn ourselves in knots trying to pick one over the other. Though it would seem from reading the article, that Folklore is the over-arching genre here. Whatever is done here, should also be done to: List of hybrid creatures in folklore. And with that in mind, regardless of anything else, we should use creatures, and not beasts. - jc37 02:12, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
