The result was redirect to Rohan. No prejudice against changing the target to a section heading or to List of minor Middle-earth characters if it's created. Olaf Davis (talk) 00:14, 23 March 2010 (UTC)

Another minor Lord of the Rings character. Ridernyc (talk) 00:04, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

Redirect to Middle-earth- Very minor, shouldn't need a whole article. Dog poster 00:58, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

Delete per non-notability. Too minor for redirect. Clarityfiend (talk) 00:59, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

Merge/Redirect to Rohan for now until there's a better article to redirect the namespace/content to. As of now the Middle-earth Wikiproject has marked several for merging, see talk page. This would definitely qualify. I don't see why deletion is necessary when a redirect will do as fine and still allows the name to show up in categories (:Category:Middle-earth Men). Also redlinks are ugly. Uthanc (talk) 06:53, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

:Because it's non-notable, unreferenced and not likely to ever be a search term. Ridernyc (talk) 10:38, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

::It's likely to be searched because it's Tolkien. Some will inevitably treat Wikipedia like a Tolkien encyclopedia site. I'm not saying we should keep every single scrap of info but there's a place for everything no matter how small. Uthanc (talk) 12:28, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

:::IMHO many of the LOTR redirects we have now should be deleted they are a mess, many of them point to sections of articles that have to nothing to do with the character. Endlessly merging and redirecting this type of stuff is not the answer. Ridernyc (talk) 17:28, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

Delete - I've read and re-read The trilogy, the Hobbit, Silmarillion, etc...dozens of times over the last 30 years and even I had no idea who "Wulf" was til clicking on the link. Not a useful redir Tarc (talk) 16:02, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
redirect Every named tolkien character should be included, at least as a redirect. There's no possible reason why a redirect would be harmful. it will help some people. Redirect are an easy compromise in situations like this. DGG ( talk ) 14:32, 16 March 2010 (UTC) .
Redirect either to Rohan#history or to an as-yet nonexistent List of minor Middle-earth characters - my preference. We've a number of these types of articles laying around, and such a link would be useful for the characters that don't fall into an explicit category e.g. [[Kings of Rohan. I don't think they deserve whole articles, but they do deserve mention. –The Fiddly Leprechaun · Catch Me! 22:05, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
