What is "The Collected works of Tolkien." I have never heard of it before. Was it a collection of Tolkiens work made by CT, or is it the work of a third party writer? --Bryan 17:48, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

I think it is being used as a catch-all phrase for all the books. Severe clean-up is needed here as the Nine Ships bit is speculation, and the title itself may be a neologism. Carcharoth (talk) 11:25, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

Is there any sign whatever that "Princely Houses of the Númenórean Realms-in-Exile" is not just a figment of the creator of this article? Does Tolkien ever use such a term? Elphion (talk) 05:25, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

I think the term is a neologism (as I said above), and that most of the solid information here is already elsewhere. This one can probably go, maybe in favour of a better "overview" article, if such is needed. One of the problems is that in the last batch of merging, I never got round to tackling the numerous stubs on the Kings and Stewards of Gondor. See User:Carcharoth/Notes#More. Maybe wait a bit until that gets done, and then the overall structure will be clearer. Carcharoth (talk) 11:21, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
