Good afternoon. I'll be reviewing the article. This is my first review, but I'll try to complete it fairly promptly this week and let you know what changes, if any, are required, in the next couple of days. Comments to follow in the table.Heavy Grasshopper (talk) 16:34, 18 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi Heavy Grasshopper, many thanks for taking this on. If you're unsure of the GAN process at any point, feel free to ask me or the folks over on the GAN discussion page. If any comments are at all long (i.e. more than 'OK') then it generally works best to list them outside (before) the table, as it gets tricky trying to edit a lot of discussion threads inside the table structure. The key to a review is to make a list of comments to which I'll reply; I'm used to working through even quite serious comments (nearly anything can be fixed with a bit of effort). In this case I created the article, so I know the sources are solid. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 16:54, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi @Chiswick Chap . I hope you won't find the comments too tiresome in that I did put them into the table. I felt that they were all quite minor, with the possible exception of my request for more context on Tolkien himself.  I know his main biographical article is linked on the context section, but I wonder if a few sentences in the context section with a quote or two from scholars) on Tolkien himself, his life as it relates to his interest in antiquarianism, and any likely motivation for using it in his works, would be good. I think knowing more about these things would help the general reader with understanding the context of his use of antiquarian elements in his works.
 * I do think that would all fall under the scope of this article and better fulfil criterion 3a.Heavy Grasshopper (talk) 13:14, 19 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the quick response and edits. Happy to pass this now.Heavy Grasshopper (talk) 14:41, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
