Isn't this the same as Old Forest Road? Merge? --Tik 17:16, 1 March 2008 (EST)

I think you're right, they're one and the same. Definitely merge. --Narfil Palùrfalas 21:36, 1 March 2008 (EST)
I checked it on the General Map of Middle-earth, The West of Middle-earth at the End of the Third Age and the Map of Wilderland. The Forest Road is the same as the Old Forest Road. The only two instances where the name "Forest Road" is used that I could find was in Note 14 in The Disaster of the Gladden Fields in Unifinished Tales of Númenor and Middle-earth. The page Forest Road should be changed into a page that redirects to the page Old Forest Road. In addition the content on this page does not have any references. --Akhorahil 10:22, 21 June 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Can this page now be turned into a redirect since I transferred information on this page to the Old Forest Road page. Can someone double check that I did not forget any information from this page to the other page? Dour1234, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
I double checked. However, I would add under section "Etymologies" the name 'Forest Road' since it has been used once in Unfinished Tales of Númenor and Middle-Earth (foot note with link included, obviously). I eneth nîn
Just did that. Other than the footnote and the link. Dour1234, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
I added the specific reference. If someone could maybe correct the formatting, then it would be good. I do not want to mess up with the formatting. Dour1234, 17 March 2022 (UTC)
