Negation in Quenya
When updating the references for Negation in Quenya I noticed that all of the unpublished material cited therein has since been published in PE17 and PE22. Can we therefore remove this from the list of Unpublished material? The same goes for the Lyenna inscription, which was published and analyzed in Vinyar Tengwar 47.

Since no one has commented for or against, I will go ahead with removing those two from this list. Unweg (talk) 02:55, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
Some material published in The Nature of Middle-earth
Some of the material listed on this page has since been published in The Nature of Middle-earth, and this page hasn't been updated to reflect their publication. Specifically:
- Essay, written in response to seeing Pauline Baynes's depiction of various characters from The Lord of the Rings. Tolkien described each member of the Fellowship of the Ring and some other persons as he pictured them — an invaluable aid to any illustrator of his work. -published in The Nature of Middle-earth as Part 2(VI), "Descriptions of Characters"
- Note about the location of the Dúnedain - published in The Nature of Middle-earth in Part 3(XVII), "Silvan Elves and Silvan Elvish," note 12.
Unless there are any objections, I'll remove these materials from the list. Protospace (talk) 23:06, 11 October 2025 (UTC)
- No objections from me, but be sure to move them to someplace else on the wiki before removing them from this page.Dour1234 (talk) 23:44, 11 October 2025 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what you mean. There is no page on this wiki for "formerly unpublished" materials. Protospace (talk) 07:29, 12 October 2025 (UTC)
- I am saying that they should be put on various relevant pages.Dour1234 (talk) 08:40, 12 October 2025 (UTC)
- The question of how these now-published sources are used elsewhere on this wiki is seperate from the issue of these sources being inaccurately listed on this page. I might edit some other pages to add lore information from these formerly unpublished sources, but I make no promises. This is an open wiki that editors are free to edit based on their interests, and information in The Nature of Middle-earth is available to all interested editors should they wish to use it as a source for their edits.

- I just checked, and these two sources are already used on various relevant pages through citations to their locations in the The Nature of Middle-earth, including on pages such as Legolas (which cites the the essay on character descriptions) and Rangers of the North (which cites the note the location of the Dúnedain).
