Removed content[edit]

The version that I edited contained (originally):

Llew could not be killed during the day or night, nor indoors or outdoors, neither riding nor walking, not clothed and not naked, nor by any weapon lawfully made. He could only be killed at dusk, wrapped in a net with one foot on a cauldron and one on a goat and a weapon forged during the hours when forging weapons was forbidden.

I have removed some of these constrictions. Whilst they can be deduced from some of the final set-up, they are not explicitly specified in the Penguin Classic edition I referred to in the article, nor in the first random semi-scholarly-looking web reference I found. My printed version merely notes in a footnote that the goat/edge of tub business means that he is additionally on neither dry land nor water. There is no mention of day/night or clothed/naked.

In addition: Blodeu(w)edd's name changes in the course of the story; she is created for Llew, not by him, and I have de-wikified the word 'goat' because there seems to be some question about whether a goat or a stag was in fact intended, according to [1] (which is the first random semi-scholarly-looking web reference I mentioned earlier).

Feel free to revert if you have better information. I have certainly heard the net and dusk variations before. I just can't find a cite for them.

Etymology source[edit]

Does anyone else have a problem with accessing this source? I get the Geiriadur Prifysgol Cymru header, but that's all. It fails to open for me on a laptop. Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 17:26, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It opens fine. GPC might not open with some browsers, however. Try opening it on Edge or iOS instead. 2A00:23C6:7C14:9801:B1EB:BCE6:9D85:A98 (talk) 20:40, 15 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Does someone know why both pictures used on this article are not transferred on Commons. Seeing their credits I see no reasons not. Thanks. Triton (talk) 07:20, 19 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
