All text here is also at Epigoni, where it belongs, in order to complete the coverage of the phenomenon. This mifght well be made a redirect. --Wetman 20:04, 4 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

I don't quite know what you mean by "the phenomenon". On the whole I think it more useful to have separate articles for people and for books (even books that don't survive): 1. because other articles will need to link to one or the other, not to a mixture of the two; 2. because they will belong to different categories. Additionally, in this case, other lost early Greek epics have articles, so it seems helpful if this does too. Those are the reasons why I made the article. So I (mildly) object to the merge.

I hadn't noticed till now that there is already an article on the lost Sophocles play Epigoni. This makes me even more convinced that each of the three articles has its proper place: it wouldn't be helpful to combine them. Andrew Dalby 19:21, 6 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
