Changes

Ever since Germain Greer wrote her famous book about women's rights in the 1970s, it is considered discriminatory (in English) to distinguish between the gender of people who do the same/similar jobs. The use words like "manageress" or "waitress" or "hostess" is considered ignorant. It is something that is really only acceptable from very old people who haven't made the change to "non-gender specific language". So I have deleted the words "goddesses" as being quite unnecessary.

I reinstated the words "Olympian Gods". This is an encyclopedia. It is about giving information. The correct information is that these gods are called the Olympian Gods. They are not called "The most important gods". It's fine to write an explanation saying that they are the most important. Moreover, if our reader is expected to handle a word like "Primordial" (which is the correct term) and "Titan" (which is the corrct term), then they can also handle the word "Olympian".
