Parentage subsection

I rewrote most of the subsection on the parentage so each available classical source I could find can be compared, avoiding confusion and contradictions. Sources and links for each are provided (Hesiod, Homer (2) and Pseudo-Apollodorus).

A suggestion for improving this article

This article is written and organized as though Hephaestus is an actual living-and-breathing character. It’s written like it’s an article on a person or on a zebra. In that way, it isn’t as much help as it could be to those who are interested in studying the myths and the literature. The important sources tend to be confined to footnotes, or sometimes fragmentary, or scattered about or jumbled together. I think the article would be improved if it had a section on Hephaestus in Hesiod, and another section on Hephaestus in The Iliad, etc. Another illustration of this same problem is that if a reader wants to find out about Hephaestus — as he plays an important role in Aeschylus — you have to read the entire article just to find out whether Aeschylus is included or not.GümsGrammatiçus (talk) 15:25, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
