Tolkien Gateway > Forums > "Later than Silmarillion" changes

I think we haven't agreed on how to treat HOME information that derives from writings later than the sources C.T. used to make the Silmarillion, and/or sometimes admitted that he "failed" to incorporate. For example, an earlier version of Amrod described Tolkien's later draft according which he died at Losgar, but a later edit changed the article to favor C.T.'s preference to ommit this version, and now it reflects the published Silmarillion version.

I think where Christopher admits to a mistake then I think we accept that. In terms of other versions I think we just acknowledge the inconsistency. --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 11:36, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
