- I don't know if those are the best defs, but yes, there is some sense in which mythic means "larger than life" rather than "not real". See e.g. google:"has become a mythic". —RuakhTALK 19:38, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
- Dbachmann removed all of the senses, and I added and cited the "larger than life" sense and added the widespread sense "existing in myth". Does that resolve this RFV? - -sche (discuss) 23:26, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
