Untitled edit

Brendan Moody's edits of 22 January have pretty much eviscerated the description of the books' content, under the ridiculous assertion of "POV". POV does not apply to factual descriptions of the content. Unless I'm convinced otherwise very soon, I'm going to revert these deletions. Stan 18:12, 22 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

What does "start-Class" mean in English? Clicking Start just takes you to a page of nothing. Why is this article of high importance? Is anything more boring than the HOME? Scott1329m 22:16, 22 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Discarded titles edit

I've just readded some parts of the deleted material that are encyclopedic, and possibly more must be preserved. Also, I've expanded the paragraphs on volume titles so as to escape redundant disambiguation pages: The War of the Ring, The Treason of Isengard. These together with The End of the Third Age now redirect here. Súrendil 18:54, 15 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Needs expansion edit

This article should either be expanded to discuss the contents of each volume in more detail, or this article should be split and each volume receive its own article, as all other volumes in the series (with the exception of Volumes 1 and 2). - 195.92.38.20 (talk) 13:03, 30 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Feel free to expand the article using reliable secondary sources, which in this case means either reviews or scholarly articles; it will be no good adding much primary material on each volume unsupported by additional secondary materials on those volumes also. It should certainly not be split before it has been so greatly expanded that it is inconveniently large for a single article. So far it has been in print for around 30 years and nobody has yet seen fit to undertake the task, so perhaps the community of volunteers isn't specially interested in it.
