| The creature hasn't been identified, but as it may be or have been real, it shouldn't be relegated to folkloric creatures.

Discussion moved from fringe/noticeboard to wt:fringe
Hello Bloodofox,
A group of editors decided to move the discussion on fringe 'rename/overhaul' to WT:FRINGE. In the process, I copied one of your comments. Please let me know if this is a problem. Thanks. JerryRussell (talk) 22:00, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
Letting you know ...
I gave Ginnungagap a good shake and removed the rewrite tag. You may want to check my work and possibly make the referencing scheme more consistent.
In the course of explaining Dronke's theory I ran into the fact that the Muspell and Múspell redirects had both been repointed to Muspilli. I wouldn't have located our article at Muspelheim, but that is definitely where those should point, however indubitable the etymological theory is, and I'm wondering whether there's anything else in that area that should be cleaned up.

- Great, that's a big improvement. Yeah, that's one of those area that needs some disentangling. I rewrote a lot of our Norse cosmology articles but there's still a lot to do there. :bloodofox: (talk) 15:53, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
