LOTR:Articles for deletion

Articles for Deletion (AfD) is where LOTR users discuss whether articles should be deleted. Items sent here usually wait a couple of weeks while debate takes place on whether the article should be deleted or not; then the deletion process can proceed based on community consensus. The page is then:

• Kept
• Deleted per the deletion policy
• Sent to Cleanup or BJAODN
• Merged and/or redirected to an existing article
• Renamed/Moved to another title
• Userfied to the creator's user page or user subpage

When nominating an article for deletion, add template {{afd}} to the top of its page, which expands to:

"I regret to announce this is the end." This article has been nominated for deletion. Please share your thoughts on the matter at this article's entry on the Articles for deletion page. Reason: no reason given You are welcome to edit this article, but please do not blank this article or remove this notice while the discussion is in progress.

Please vote below to either Delete or Keep

Current nominations

Breaking of the Fellowship

I consider this article to be unecessary because its contents are incomplete and the battle is already described at the Skirmish at Amon Hen page in better detail. I vote delete. DarkLantern 02:02, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

Please vote yes or no on this article's removal please.--DarkLantern 05:31, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Keep I would have to say NO. However, I think it should be restructured to talk about the Fellowship splitting up and going separate ways instead of the battle. If I have time I will do it. User:Uldor

I have nominated this article for Article Attack because of the reasons stated above. User:Uldor

Delete: This article is rather worthless. Make its title a redirect to Skirmish at Amon Hen. Wjxhuang, the 888th Avatar ^{Talk} 09:50, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

Keep: For the same reasons as Uldor. Gamma Metroid | talk | contribs | edits 20:25, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Derogate

What the heck is this? Has anyone heard of it before? It needs to be deleted. User:Uldor

I vote Delete. This looks like fandom but I will wait a bit see what others have to say but I doubt anyone will argue for its keeping. So if others vote for its removal or no one has voted. I'll just go ahead and delete it.--DarkLantern 11:17, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

Faldor

Delete: This has to be fandom. I can't find any mention of him in the Lord of the Rings nor is there an article on him at the ever thorough Tolkien Gateway either, and an Internet search wasn't very helpful either. I vote delete was marked for deletion anyway.--DarkLantern 17:38, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

Delete Yeah. He wasn't mentioned in the Lord of the Rings. User:Uldor

Gharkul

Delete: This has to be fandom. No mention of him in the Lord of the Rings; no article on him at the Tolkien Gateway, and an Internet search wasn't very helpful either. I vote delete was marked for deletion anyway.--DarkLantern 17:38, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

Delete I have to agree. I have never heard or seen anything about him before. User:Uldor

Previous nominations

The Iron Hills

Delete: Duplicate articles and spam. I vote delete. DarkLantern 19:48, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Deleted: Article text was spam and additionally there is already an article on the Iron Hills, and as no one else voted yes or no on the subject in the over two weeks that it was up, I went ahead and deleted it--DarkLantern 05:31, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

DVD

Delete: The text is good but as to it being in a separate article entitled just DVD seems redundant. It would be better situated as a footnote on the Lord of the Rings film trilogy page. I vote delete or perhaps redirect. Thank you. DarkLantern 18:01, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

Deleted and transfered full text to Lord of the Rings film trilogy page as no one else voted Yes or No on the subject of its removal in the over a month that it was up, I deleted it --DarkLantern 23:19, 10 May 2009 (UTC)

Ghan-buri-Ghan

Delete: Dupicate articles. There is already an article by that name see: Ghân-buri-Ghân. I vote delete. DarkLantern 18:58, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

Redirected to Ghân-buri-Ghân TheGreyPilgrim|Talk|Contribs|Edits 03:17, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

Articles in the Wrong Language

Delete: I found yet another article written in the wrong language. I failed to noticed it or to cite it here. TheGreyPilgrim deleted the others but didn't notice this one: Minas malltoh. Naturally I vote delete. DarkLantern 02:39, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

This appears to have been settled by a redirect.--DarkLantern 05:31, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Delete: The following articles created by 201.9.214.175 were in the wrong language (Portuguese I think) see: Gnomos, Dol cultirith, Suduri, and Egenyar. Spam, don't you think? This is an English site. I vote delete. Thank you DarkLantern 07:03, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Delete: More articles in the wrong language see: Aspar I vote delete. Thank you. DarkLantern 00:48, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Delete: More articles in the wrong language see: The Iron Hills by 201.9.224.28. I vote delete. Thank you. DarkLantern 23:31, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Unnecessary Categories (Second)

Delete: Category:Gondorian An unnecessary category since everything related to this has been placed in Category:Gondorians I vote delete. Thank you. DarkLantern 18:01, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

Deleted TheGreyPilgrim|Talk|Contribs|Edits 03:04, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

Unnecessary Categories

Delete: Category:Important facts & Category:What i have read By User:Kingofmen. Categories created for personal user information and personal user indulgences should not be allowed. I have not witnessed this being done anywhere else including here, all personnal effects like this are reserved to the user's personal page and that's where this user's info should be put. I vote delete. Thank you. DarkLantern 23:54, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

Fell Beast

Delete: Duplicate articles. User created Fell Beast page which already exists as Fell beast. I vote delete. DarkLantern 21:08, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Redirecting to Fell beast. Gamma Metroid | talk | contribs | edits 01:40, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

Oathbreakers

Delete: Now unnecessary.DarkLantern 19:54, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Delete: I'll let this go for a little bit, in case someone thinks otherwise. Gamma Metroid | talk | contribs | edits 20:26, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Deleted Gamma Metroid | talk | contribs | edits 19:10, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Colonist

Delete: An unnecessary redundancy. The article could be deleted and the text integrated into the Gondor page. I vote delete. DarkLantern 09:32, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Deleted Gamma Metroid | talk | contribs | edits 19:10, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Orc pit

Delete: Seems to be about what was shown in the movies and is pretty vague and even if it wasn't, the text might be better situated as a footnote on the Orcs page. I vote delete. DarkLantern 09:32, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Deleted Gamma Metroid | talk | contribs | edits 19:10, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Birth of Uruk-Hai

Delete: The article is vague and biased to the movies if anything the text could be salvaged and used as a footnote on the Uruk-hai page. I vote delete. DarkLantern 15:56, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Deleted Huh. I thought this was deleted awhile ago. Gamma Metroid | talk | contribs | edits 19:10, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Battle for middle-earth III

Delete: It's really not a useful page, and any information needs to be verified. Gamma Metroid | talk | contribs | edits 01:43, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Hold on: I stand by my earlier statement, but I think that there's a lot of information that people have brought together, and is there a place we could put it? Perhaps we could make a namespace just for Fandom. Gamma Metroid | talk | contribs | edits 20:26, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Delete: This game is not even announced and they speaks of units and buildings. Poor Smeagol

Delete: I think it's useless. I didn't know there was one, I knew about the expansion for BFME2. But that’s the only thing close, get rid of it.--The dark marshal 11:28, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Maybe Delete: Well, now that you say it, I guess we could have something like that. But I still think they should rename the page to Battle for Middle Earth 2 Rise of the Witch-King if that’s what they mean by BFME3.--The dark marshal 20:33, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

• We've had discussions about fandom in the past, I think that it even ended in a vote; however if people now want to use a fandom or fanon namespace then go for it.-- KingAragorn  talk  contribs  edits  email  21:43, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Moved to Fandom:Battle for Middle-Earth III Gamma Metroid | talk | contribs | edits 20:25, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Castle Rendorith

Delete: I think this is fandom. I have never heard of it. It is not documented at the Tolkien Gateway. A google search turned up nothing accept for the article here. DarkLantern 14:51, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Deleted Gamma Metroid | talk | contribs | edits 20:26, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Rohirrim rush

Delete: This is an unnecessary article almost spam. It denotes more of a vague personal opinion more than legitimate information. DarkLantern 14:51, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Deleted Gamma Metroid | talk | contribs | edits 20:26, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Trilogy

Delete: Unnecessary. DarkLantern 14:51, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Deleted Gamma Metroid | talk | contribs | edits 20:26, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Haradrim warrior

Delete: Looks like someone who choose to spam in a different way because look at it, whoever did it made no attempt to fill in anything, justify anything, or do anything at all. DarkLantern 04:32, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Deleted Gamma Metroid | talk | contribs | edits 20:26, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Battle of Telum-or-Girithar

Delete: Looks like fandom, though I'm not sure. The names don't ring any bells. Gamma Metroid | talk | contribs | edits 21:12, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

I Vote on Delete: Of course is it Fandom. The men awakened in the first year of the Sun. And this is a battle between men, 6000 years before the Rise of the Sun. --Thijs95 12:59, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
