Criteria marked are unassessed

• A couple duplinks found using the tool.

• Fixed.

• "by fighting" Fighting who or what?

• Enemies of any description in the Norse myths.

• "evil characters" you could just say "antagonists".

• Not the same thing, nor does it really apply to Gollum, for instance.

• "to a fiery end" considering the next clause, this should be "to a fiery end in LOTR" to have a consistent pattern.

• Added.

• "Medieval" you used the spelling Mediaeval in an earlier article, I'm not really sure which is more common in British English.

• -ie- has become more common now (and it saves our American friends from constantly "correcting" it, too).

• "Boromir, Denethor, Gollum, Saruman, Sauron, Théoden" why no links for all of these?

• Linked Théoden; the others are all linked above.

• Really nothing else in the prose that I can pick apart.

• Noted.

• The images are all licensed and used correctly.

• Noted.

• The references are all reliable and formatted correctly.

• Noted.

• Spotchecks:
  • Dalfonzo, Gina (2007). "Humble Heroism: Frodo Baggins as Christian Hero in The Lord of the Rings". In Pursuit of Truth. Verifies all claims made.
  • Bedell, Haley (2015). "Frodo Baggins: The Modern Parallel to Christ in Literature" (PDF). Humanities Capstone Projects. Pacific University (Paper 24). Verifies all claims made.
  • Stucky, Mark (Summer 2006). "Middle Earth's Messianic Mythology Remixed: Gandalf's Death and Resurrection in Novel and Film" (PDF). Journal of Religion and Popular Culture. Verifies all claims made.
  • Shippey, Tom (2005). "Another road to Middle-earth: Jackson's movie trilogy". In Isaacs, Neil D.; Zimbardo, Rose A. (eds.). Understanding the Lord of the Rings: The Best of Tolkien Criticism. Verifies all claims made.

• Noted.

• Really nice article overall, that's all I have. AryKun (talk) 14:31, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
