[edit] Oropher
I moved the material concerning Oropher to its own paragraph because it was not part of the published LotR, and also its canonicity is not (IIRC) entirely established becuase it seems to contradict Appendix B where it's at least implied that Thranduil was the one who established a realm in Mirkwood, not his father. The Unfinished Tales account of Oropher may well be Tolkien's final intent, but if there's any discussion of this in HoME I don't remember it. TCC (talk) (contribs) 03:01, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
I removed the bit about Durin IV fighting in the War of the Last Alliance. The reference from the Silmarillion was incorrect -"Durin's Folk" refers to the particular race of Dwarves, the Longbeards, not the forces of one of the Durins. Durin IV never appears in Tolkien's books. User:Username911
