I have a feeling many of the pages that are marked with this template are in fact not stubs, as many of them are very minor topics with only a handful of mentions throughout Tolkien's work, but I haven't read The History of Middle-earth yet so I'm not positive. Someone with more knowledge should check them out. —siroχo 12:07, Aug 30, 2004 (UTC)

Another thing for someone with more knowledge to check out: is it just me, or do some of these stubs read suspiciously like direct quotations from the Encyclopedia of Arda? --Paul A 05:02, 24 Dec 2004 (UTC)

I wouldn't be at all surprised. -Aranel ("Sarah") 02:09, 25 Jan 2005 (UTC)
