Should this include Celebrían's children? It's important fo Galadriel's family tree to include Arwen, so I reverted to the older version, but we could just as easily extend this to include Galariel's grandchildren. (It might even be a useful as a link to LotR-era Middle-earth.) [[User:Aranel|Aranel ("Sarah")]] 20:31, 1 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Celebrían's children are not really a part of the House of Finarfin by paternal descent, they rather belong to the House of Elrond… which is the line of the Half-elven. The advantage of using templates is that one change can be made simultaniously to many articles, but in this case (Galadriel) we might be better off keeping a seperate tree, as she is important both because of her heritage (Finarfin) and her heirs. {Ανάριον} 01:53, 2 Oct 2004 (UTC)
