Talk:Supreme Council of Ethnic Hellenes

Suggested Sections

This article could use additional sections including Beliefs, Practices, Organization and Community, Controversies, etc. --151.201.147.161 (talk) 16:50, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

I tried to add a Controversies section but a seemingly biased editor repeatedly removes them. Lotusyeeter (talk) 01:17, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

Original research removed

I removed a large tract of original research from this article, which was entirely the work of User:Babylon324. It was an elaborate "criticism" section that was not really referenced to reliable or non-self-published sources, and contained rather odd accusations of links to Freemasonry (gasp!!!) and claims that animal sacrifices (which is more or less what you'd expect from a Greek pagan revival) are "satanic". It alleged that this movement was a "cult", but those statements were only referenced to general anti-cult websites that were not specifically about this group. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 15:04, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

That's a pretty ironic statement since this entire article smacks of shameless self-promotion. Even the domain of the group's umbrella organization is up for sale. What about this group is notable at all? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 27.100.8.78 (talk) 21:24, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

I have to wonder the same, it seems like self-promotion and considering the swath of uncited, unsourced information I have to wonder why this is still up. Lotusyeeter (talk) 03:52, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

Temple Picture

OK. It seems this picture was in the article for quite awhile. An IP editor removed it yesterday, I added it back, and another IP Editor has taken it out again. I obviously don't want to start an edit war. Does anyone else have any thoughts? I think it works with the article…

Hellenic temple built in Thessaloniki.

No clue, but none of those addresses made any changes to other pages. However, that pic is also linked on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hellenic_Polytheistic_Reconstructionism. Perhaps it's for another group, or not exclusive to this specific group? The Crab Who Played With The Sea (talk) 19:49, 2 December 2012 (UTC)

The picture is available on the gallery section of the Supreme Council of Ethnikoi Hellenes (YSEE) website and it's uploaded by them. I reverted ip user as an unexplained removal. Macedonian, a Greek (talk) 06:21, 3 December 2012 (UTC)

Translation

In Modern Greek, εθνικός in this case means "pagan," and Έλληνας functions as an adjective (like Έλληνας συγγραφέας = Greek writer). A more accurate translation would be "Supreme Council of Greek Pagans." 146.115.40.172 (talk) 09:28, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

Unsourced information

A lot of the claims in this article are unsourced. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lotusyeeter (talk • contribs) 01:50, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
