Welcome to Tolkien Gateway's Community Portal
a one-stop shop for editors old and new
Tolkien Gateway is an encyclopedia about Tolkien that anyone can edit. Since our launch on 3 June 2005, we have grown to include 12,541 articles and 14,290 images on a range of Tolkien-related topics.
This Community Portal is designed to help editors find something to work on. It covers a range of ways you can share your Tolkien knowledge with the world including creating wanted pages, expanding stub articles, cleaning up poorly-written pages and added references to articles in need of citations. Some of the work might be a little tedious, but a little goes a long way in continuing to build the world's largest Tolkien encyclopedia. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. You can ask a specific staff member on their talk page - they're happy to help you out. |

Uploading images When uploading an image be sure to use the appropriate copyright template by selecting it from the "Licensing" drop-down box. All you need do is provide a summary of the image and the category. Remember: do not upload images to Tolkien Gateway without prior permission of the copyright-holder unless you believe it falls under fair-use. Files without licensing templates The following articles lack a licensing template and so should be investigated for copyright violation:
<DynamicPageList> namespace = file count = 10 notcategory = Files with a license template ordermethod = lastedit order = ascending mode = unordered </DynamicPageList> |
