Welcome!
Hello! I noticed your contributions to Orc&#32;and wanted to welcome you to the Wikipedia community. I hope you like it here and decide to stay. You are welcome to edit anonymously; however, creating an account is free and has several benefits (for example, the ability to create pages, upload media and edit without one's IP address being visible to the public).

As you get started, you may find this short tutorial helpful:

Alternatively, the contributing to Wikipedia page covers the same topics.

 * Please note that WikiProject Middle-earth articles are mostly quite well-developed now, having been worked on for many years by many editors. They are invariably well-cited to reliable sources like newspaper articles, or for more academic analysis, scholarly books or journals. If you take a look at the citations in the articles, you will see how they are constructed (it's not difficult). Basically we have to say "The Tolkien scholar John Doe wrote that orcs are becoming friendly characters in the work of many novelists.[23]" rather than volunteering our own personal experiences or opinions - this is because other editors have to be able to verify what's said, not to mention that readers may want to look the sources up.
