[edit] Location of article

This issue has been gnawing at me for some time, so unless anyone has any strong objections, I am going to move this page to Lothlórien, and change all redirects there, leaving the disambiguation link at the top of the page and have Lothlorien (disambiguation) be the location of the disambiguation page (since this is clearly the correct location, given that Tolkien's work is by far the dominant usage of the term Lothlórien). Lothlórien should be chosen over Lórien because both receive nearly equal usage in the book, but Lórien can be confused with the Vala Irmo, or his realm in Aman.

[edit] Caras Galadhon's Location in the site

Hi! I'm a somewhat new editor in Wikipedia and I would really like to help making an improvement in some Tolkien-related pages, including Caras Galadhon.

Concerning the merging of Caras Galadhon with Lothlórien because of its small size, I strongly disagree with it, because although it is a part of that environment, the elven city has several characteristics that can be developed and can make the page appealing to whoever may read it in the future.

Mostly, I would like to enlarge the page in the parts related to its history before Galadriel's control (concerning Amroth) and during the Third Age until the moment when the Fellowship of the Ring enters it, together with some interesting facts about Tolkien linguistics.

Please say anything to approve (or disapprove) my idea. Thanks. Superlost (talk) 01:09, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
