Nope

Hi. I highly disagree with having this template and the idea of making an article for each chapter of TNOME, for several reasons: most of the chapters in this book are very very short, so I don't think it is worth it save for longer and important essays like Ósanwe-kenta. Articles so short with such a huge book template will look ridiculous, as already looks The Númenórean Catastrophe & End of "Physical" Aman, and some of them can end falling out of fair use. Also, most of HoMe articles are still stubs, so I don't see the need of making this now (specially when TNOME needs to be explained in relation with HoMe). My proposal: delete this template, make articles about the important chapters, and maybe in the future we can make a template for those. --LorenzoCB 07:33, 18 October 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

When you put it like that I think you're right.Turiannerevarine 10:45, 18 October 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I appreciate your intentions and work, tho :). I can't check now how long is The Númenórean Catastrophe & End of "Physical" Aman, but maybe we can keep it; and it's great if we make more articles for TNOME chapters, but just without the template. --LorenzoCB 10:56, 18 October 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Thank you :). The chapter itself is literally 2-3 pages long, and that is due mainly to the editor's commentary. I think I will restore the chapter article, minus the template, because it IS a manuscript Tolkien wrote and ended up being published.
Regarding the template though, I am leaving that in oblivion for now. Especially since several essays already have articles on here. I think we should just not bother with it, but that can be debated.
