Greetings Ayla! Good start but this definitely needs more work before it gets published in Wikipedia. In particular:


 * You need references to establish the notability of the theory. Once this is done, the article can move. Until that's done, this can't move. The text itself should not just jump into and explain the theory in depth but should make the case.
 * Check out Make technical articles understandable. The current article is very difficult to read or understand if you're not really into Game of Thrones. Remember, Wikipedia is for a general audience and this text seems to be written for die-hard GoT folks. A rewrite according to the link above will help with that.

Good luck! I'm looking forward to seeing this develop! — m a k o ๛  19:52, 23 October 2015 (UTC)

Ayla, I think this is coming along well. However I do feel you need to decide on how much information you want to include on your back ground information. While I believe the tournament is important. I'm not so sure how much you should include about Brandon. Maybe just focus on the tournament and then where Rhaegar supposedly kidnaps lyanna. Then set the state for the tower of joy and start sprinkling information in such as the "promise me Ned quotes". But what to take from this is that you need to identify what is most ential for the theory. Bigbuck stag (talk) 03:09, 9 November 2015 (UTC)

This article has not been much improved since its creation. The bulk of it is not written from a real-world perspective, and I've begun a rewrite. Also, the "evidence" is mostly attributed to the primary sources rather than secondary sources, which are available in the article but need to be better utilized. Other editors should feel free to join in on the improvement. I'm also wondering if this article should be moved to simply R+L=J?— TAnthonyTalk 20:21, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

Not notable
Surely this could be folded into the Jon Snow article? What next, a Ron is Dumbledore from the Future article? Debbiesw (talk) 12:08, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes, I totally agree, and I was going to boldly do so once I go through the sources and cite some tangible "evidence".— TAnthonyTalk 12:17, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I've added a version of this content as a section in Jon Snow (character), and redirected this article.— TAnthonyTalk 19:25, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
