Middle Earth/Talk

I'd agree that Middle Earth (or possibly The Lord of the Rings) is the best jump-off-point. When linking/creating these I assume we should use sublinks? (e.g. Middle Earth/Gandalf) -- General Wesc

Never mind, I see we already are sublinking from Middle Earth. I'll start listing the characters on Middle Earth. -- General Wesc

I think the characters should be included placed in the individual books, not on the Middle Earth page, except for, perhaps, the major ones- Gandalf, Frodo, Gollum, Sauron. -- SGL

There aren't any individual books. The Lord of the Rings is a single novel, which is only sold in three volumes for convenience. (And while we're at it, the proper spelling is "Middle-earth", but it's too late to change that now.) -- Xaonon

Middle Earth does far a meaning outside of the realm of Tolkienania so it might be confusing if someone wrote an article on Nordic mythology

In Norse mythology, the term is usually left as "Midgard", so I think reserving "Middle Earth" for Tolkien's universe would be acceptable.
