Hehehe I loved this book....
 * Many thanks! I'll get to this later today. Chiswick Chap (talk) 09:12, 27 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Umm usually we're worried these articles are too plot-heavy...but this has very little. I recall some of the other names being quite funny. Serutan for Saruman (topical for the time), and Minas Troney - chapter "Minas Troney in the Soup" being amusing. I think some expansion here is needed. Not much but a bit more...
 * Well, nobody reads BotR for the plot, exactly... I've added Serutan and Minas Troney.
 * True - am torn. Part of me thinks it should be bigger but other part just says follow plt of LoTR I guess. Need to think overnight.....Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 12:17, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Well, I've never had to write a more impossible plot summary really (and I still recall the scars of the 'Use of English' precis text of something musicological, in an earlier millennium, clearly designed to be irreducible: each sentence rambled on from the last words of the previous one; I got an 'A'). Anyway, you've got your ten chapters' worth.


 * Also the lead is a tad on the small side....
 * Extended a bit.

1. Well written?:
 * Prose quality:
 * Manual of Style compliance:

2. Factually accurate and verifiable?:
 * References to sources:
 * Citations to reliable sources, where required:
 * No original research:

3. Broad in coverage?:
 * Major aspects:
 * Focused:

4. Reflects a neutral point of view?:
 * Fair representation without bias:

5. Reasonably stable?
 * No edit wars, etc. (Vandalism does not count against GA):

6. Illustrated by images, when possible and appropriate?:
 * Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales: I think the potted summary adds to the article nicely as the parody names have out-of-universe connotations themselves. Anyway, a nice read. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 19:31, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you, it was a challenge! Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:34, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
