Any objections if I broaden this category to Religious Sites and Symbols so I can put Shrines and Cairn stones under it? Corvax 06:31, 24 January 2007 (GMT)

Sites and symbols don't seem to fit together, other than the two being religious. Cypra 07:06, 24 January 2007 (GMT)
Additionally, not all cairn stones have religious significance. Soliloquy 18:10, 24 January 2007 (GMT)
Divine Symbols doesn't seem to fit the contents of this category correctly, seeing as some of the items within would be considered more "Divine significance" than Divine symbols. Why not just leave it at Divine symbols and specifically only keep their particular symbols, like, the owl, the unblinking eye, the golden apple, etc. Give another designation to Religious Sites? And there put the Arbor, any religious specific cairn stones, etc. --Askiva @ 05:02, 9 June 2007 (GMT)
Agreed with Askiva. Divine Symbols are usually explicitly defined, such as in the God's help scroll, while other Divine-related things are just Divine by association. Asara 22:04, 12 June 2007 (GMT)

Added to edit needed as the category is incomplete. (Other divine symbols include Maya's Great Grey Owl, Agatheis' black diamond, etc.) Asara 18:52, 29 August 2007 (GMT)
