Incorrect spelling[edit]

"Günther" is the actual spelling. Should be fixed.112.198.90.188 (talk) 05:17, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Falsehood[edit]

"Gunther . . . is the German name of a semi-legendary king. . ."
If that is so, why does the German Wikipedia page not even mention this name? Bataaf van Oranje (talk) 10:22, 10 April 2016 (UTC) Because the German Wiki wisely separates the historical Gundaharius from the legendary Gunther. It's wise to actually research a subject before throwing around accusations of falsehood.--Ermenrich (talk) 13:38, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

State of Article[edit]

So I think I'm going to have to leave this as is for a while. I still intend to add at least a section on the development of the figure over time, and also to add the "lesser" stories in which he features as a minor character, most of which are continental, as well as the Prose Edda. For the time being two statements about theories of development are footnoted in the lede.--Ermenrich (talk) 17:06, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
