  • ... that Lel and Polel are considered divine twins in Slavic mythology? Source: Aleksander Gieysztor (2006). ... so giving these few messages, I prefer not to inquire further about what deity Lel and Polel could have been, it is only on the basis of what I said it can be said that Lel could not be just a chant as the own names or etymology prove

  • Date, size, refs, copyvio all good. The quoted ref doesn't mention the word twins but other sources cited in the article do, so it seems fine. QPQ check tool is broken, but nom's talk page suggests it is their second nomination so QPQ is not required (but I'll nonetheless ping User:Sławobóg to see if they'd like to start doing them soon!). One suggestion I have for Sławobóg the closing admin is to add a link to divine twins in the hook; another - this could be a picture-based nom with File:Fischerinselgoetze.jpg. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:18, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
