A bit lazy, but the other desk was getting crowded, and rather than spend time clearing it, here is a brand-new, shiny, clean one! :-)

Worklist

Plan

[edit]
  • (1) Merge stub locations into larger articles.
  • (2) Tidy up articles and add out-of-universe references.
  • (3) Cite wide range of references, making notability clear.

Types of references

[edit]

CBD's references structure:

  • Verification of details about the stories/setting - Inline references to primary sources
  • Verification of interpretations and commentary - Inline references to secondary/tertiary sources
  • Establishing notability - Page footer references to texts providing significant coverage of the subject

Checklist for merging

[edit]
  • Open edit window at stub (PAGENAME A)
  • Cut text from stub, leaving categories and inter-wikis behind
  • Open edit window at merge location (PAGENAME B)
  • Paste text into correct position at merge location
  • Add div-id tags or section header at merge location and format layout
  • Save with edit summary "merge from [[PAGENAME A]]"
  • Go back to stub and put "#REDIRECT [[PAGENAME B#PAGENAME A]]"
  • Add the right 'Middle-earth redirects' category (see Category:Middle-earth redirects)
  • Save with edit summary "merge to [[PAGENAME B]]"
  • Click the redirect link to make sure it works
  • If present, remove {{ME-project}} from the redirect talk page
  • Consider archiving talk page discussions to a more visible location
  • Check for redirects pointing at the new redirect, and fix these double redirects if any
