Of the Rings of Power and the Third Age

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

One short chapter from a Tolkien work. We don't often have articles about specific chapters of works unless the chapters themselves gain significant independent coverage outside of the main work itself, like The Scouring of the Shire or Leviticus 18. This chapter does not garner that sort of attention. Hog Farm (talk) 20:01, 16 December 2019 (UTC)

 * Merge a small amount of information into The Silmarillion Three of the other four parts of The Silmarillion redirect to the main article on the book. I see no reason why this one should be given the privilege of having its own article, as there does not appear to be any substantial discussion of this portion of the book. &#8213; Susmuffin Talk 20:37, 16 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom.--Jack Upland (talk) 02:07, 17 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to The Silmarillion. Very few books merit articles about their chapters, and no, Tolkien works do not qualify. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 06:11, 17 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect per nom and age-old prophesy: One Nominator to find them all and in the Afd merge them, in the land of Wikipedia where the articles lie. Clarityfiend (talk) 08:34, 17 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete This is even less notable than the rest of the Samirillion which is truly saying a lot.John Pack Lambert (talk) 18:49, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
 * What?! There's a new book about Sam Gamgee? Clarityfiend (talk) 10:09, 19 December 2019 (UTC)


 * Redirect to The Silmarillion, per Susmuffin. Goustien (talk) 06:58, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
