The first sentence is wrong: Dwarrowdelf is not actually another name for Moria, but rather, for the ancient city of the dwarves which was located in the mines of Moria. But Moria included far more than just Dwarrowdelf. Someone should rewrite this appropriately; I'm not sure the best way how. --Tb 01:06 27 Jul 2003 (UTC)

Actually, the index of The Silmarillion says that Dwarrowdelf is a translation of Khazad-dûm amd Hadhodrond. Eric119 01:54, Apr 22, 2004 (UTC)


yeah, the name Moria was the new name given to Dwarrowdelf after the Dwarves had left it Ariakas 08:09, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

I agree- Dz

This article's justification is all wrong! I can't read the links to the left to navigate Wiki at all. Could someone adjust this so it reads OK again? Shaybear 03:19, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

The article displayed fine for me, but there was some odd table-markup code (table open and right align, but no close) at the top so I removed that. If you are still having trouble info on what browser / version you are using might help. --CBD 10:46, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks very much, all fixed now. :] Shaybear 02:45, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned sentence?

In the "Second Age" section, there is an orphan sentence fragment: "Narvi's western doors and the original Gates in the east remained the only two known exits from Khazad-dûm," brain 00:03, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
