About the Project

Statues of Greek Gods: Dionysus, Aphrodite, Zeus, and Ares (Left to Right)
The purpose of the Greek mythology project is to create high-quality articles dealing with the body of myths from ancient Greek culture. Our goal is to create easy to read, informational, and accurate articles that are properly sourced.
To participate, simply sign the list below, click a red link in the Greek mythology template (below) and create an article! Be sure to consider the format and information in other articles already created before starting a new one, so all articles will be consistent.
Additionally, you can help with the project by improving already existing articles, or rewriting any Greek mythology articles that may have been plagiarized form material from other sites. Plagiarized material is strictly forbidden on this website. You can browse Greek mythology articles by visiting the Greek Mythology Category Page.

- The Dionysus article has been created.
