Bay of Andúnië

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

I am also nominating the following related articles

These article cite no secondary sources and I do not believe any could be found – they therefore fail the primary notability criteria (WP:NN) and as there is no real world content the notability criteria for fiction (WP:FICT. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information (WP:NOT) and this may count as  fancruft. Middle-earth may be notable but that does not mean that every geographical detail about it is, notability is not inherited.  The article may contain information deemed useful to some but that does not mean it belongs on Wikipedia. Guest9999 07:40, 18 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep all and merge where needed. Please see Category:Wikiproject Middle-earth to be merged, and the discussions at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Middle-earth for the ongoing efforts at merging. This will take time, but has been proceding. For examples, see Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Middle-earth for examples of list articles that have been created by merging. Give us time, and more of the ones above will be merged as well. Carcharoth 10:18, 18 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep all and merge where needed. Having a dedicated article for each and every thing mentioned above may be excessive for a general-knowledge encyclopedia, there are always fan wikis, like Wookieepedia for Star Wars, which can go into the detail. The Middle-earth WikiProject is short of volunteers so I think the best solution at this point is allow them time to merge the minor articles before taking any drastic steps such as deleting the information. --Hyarion 13:41, 18 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep per Carcharoth. --Fang Aili talk 13:41, 18 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Withdraw nomination and close without prejudice - I still think that they violate several policies, WP:NN, WP:FICT, WP:OR, WP:V, WP:RS, WP:NOT, etc. but maybe at this stage an AfD isn't the best way to sort out the problems. Guest9999 15:02, 18 August 2007 (UTC)]]
 * Delete & USERFY all to the Middle Earth WP and have them merge at their discretion, but at this point, it is failing WP:N and WP:FICT in lacking real world significant coverage from reliable sources Corpx 15:42, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
