Zapotec God

[edit]

I removed the following from the article, as it sounds very wrong, and I could find nothing on Google to support it. Can anyone verify the following?

Oscar is the Zapotec God of Fire and Wind. C. 800 - 1200.

It is quite identical with this site http://www.wordiq.com/definition/Oscar
Yes, because that page "uses material from the Wikipedia article 'Oscar'", and clearly states so at the bottom. It's just a mirror. -- Jao 18:34, 21 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I reversed this edit by 70.244.39.145 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) which was vandalism and foul language. I also added a topic name "Zapotec God".--Kiyoweap (talk) 03:15, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Origin of name?

[edit]

For at least the proper names section, could someone who knows something about it make a brief paragraph as an article/disambig lead stating whence the name came into English? I'm thinking something similar to the lead of Lincoln. Tomertalk 00:13, 19 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

it#s a bag ?

[edit]

or a prize for film products, and the germans act in this year out of the human right standarts. it#s a "ghostwriters" strike. --Raskollnika (talk) 18:52, 22 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Was looking for info on this dish. According to this post on food.com, dishes with the term Oscar "always includes crab meat, asparagus and bearnaise sauce."--Morning star (talk) 20:33, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oscar who died in Cath Gabhra cannot be Oscar of fairyland

[edit]

I removed the description that Oscar (mythology) is the son of Oisín and Niamh (mythology).

It is only according to the 18th century poem "Lay of Oisín in the Land of Youth" attributed to Mícheál Coimín that Oisín couple had two sons, one who was named Oscar.

That Oscar (brother of Plor na mBan), who presumably still lives in fairyland, cannot be logically reconciled with the Oscar (mythology) who died in the Cath Gabhra in the tradition of the Fenian cycle. --Kiyoweap (talk)

I'm moving the thead to Talk:Oscar (Irish mythology)#Oscar of Tir na nOg so please place your inputs there. --Kiyoweap (talk) 04:58, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
