Merge?

[edit]

I'm no expert on Greek Mythology, but Adrasteia and Adrestia are confusingly similar here! Are these pages for the same goddess? If they are, let's merge them. If they aren't, they need to be better distinguished from each other. I doubt the daughter of Ares and the nurse of Zeus can both be epithets of Nemesis, or even be the same being, but again, I'm no expert here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mousenight (talkcontribs) 05:55, 9 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Verifiability?

[edit]

I have been reviewing potential academic and primary sources for the information contained in this article and I’m coming up dry on most things with the exception that Adrestia was an epithet for Nemesis. I could only find one reference to Adrestia being the daughter of Ares and Aphrodite in a fiction story that in itself references Wikipedia (cited on Google Scholar as Yeats, W. B., & Hühn, P. (1989). The second coming.). Unfortunately, I don’t think most of the information in this article is accurate, and it may be worth merging the confirmed information with the article on Adrasteia, as suggested by Mousenight, since the article appears to have a more robust resource section and makes a brief reference to Adrestia being an epithet for Nemesis. If anyone does have verified sources that the information provided here is correct, please add it to the article! --Elgallow (talk) 20:21, 1 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
