This article, while good, is a mish-mash of material from both the Silmarillion and the Book of Lost Tales, Volume II. No distinctions are made as to what comes from where, or to the changing conceptions of Tolkien's mythos, and this leads to confusion (such as using "Maeglin" throughout instead of "Meglin" when appropriate for the older material, or referencing the mechanical dragons (that are never addressed in later versions of the story)). Footnotes, references, and a discussion of the the history of the tale of the Fall should all be added.
