[edit] Disambiguation?

It is probable that the other uses section is better in some other context, but there is a 'name space collision' here, so something needs be done. Perhaps a pointer to another article? ww 17:21, 7 Jul 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Gandalf/Sauruman

Lordess of the Ring, the info you are putting is already in the article: "The White Council's head was the Wizard Saruman the White, (although Galadriel wished for Gandalf the Grey to be made the leader)." And if you commit changes, please use correct English. Thank you, Bryan 14:56, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Stub?

Is this still a stub? Is there other information to be added? ▫ Urbane Legend ^talk 14:25, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

There is still more which could be added, references for instance, but I don't think this is a stub any more. --CBD 00:46, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Members of the first White Council

How can the members of the first White Council be "mostly the same as [those of] the Second" if the wizards haven't even arrived in Middle Earth yet?

[edit] Removal of White Council fan board

Wikipedia is not a tool for self promotion. http://p211.ezboard.com/fthelotrmoviesitefrm17.showMessageRange?topicID=71.topic&start=161&stop=162 "I'm thinking maybe this will be good for us - give us some more press mayhaps." Rather than even a brief mention (which would still have been inappropriate), a long ad for the entire fansite was written, nearly as long as the section on the Second White Council itself. If you want, add a link to your fansite on Tolkien fandom (an article which I originated in the Elder Days...).--Vi Veri Veniversum Vivus Vici 11:18, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Agree. This was blatant spam. Bryan 19:55, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Thank you, sir. --Vi Veri Veniversum Vivus Vici 12:01, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not a tool for self promotion? What universe do you live in? If your intent is to say it's not SUPPOSED to be a tool for self promotion, you are correct. 69.210.66.153 21:17, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

You won't win people over with an improper attitude like that. --Vi Veri Veniversum Vivus Vici 21:49, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

(sigh) from the link above; "IT GOT REMOVED!! Someone else post something again! We have to make it stick!!" Well, I'll have to put this page on my Watchlist. --Vi Veri Veniversum Vivus Vici 21:51, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
