[edit] Ilfirin

Hoax? Move to wikitionary? -- BMIComp (talk) 13:48, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

I'm restarting this vote from today, August 3, because the template wasn't linked in correctly, preventing many people from voting. Checking those who have voted, most of them seem to be relatively new to Wikipedia and I think we need more votes especially from more experienced editors. No vote from me. --Tony Sidaway^Talk 20:42, 3 August 2005 (UTC)

• Move to wikitionary. Grpunkim 18:27, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete I can find no evidence that it carries any meaning outside of Tolkien's works. All non-Tolkien usages are related to fantasy-gaming or fanfic. Perhaps add it to Wiktionary as a protologism, but I'm not even inclined to do that. I find no precedence for including the words of a fictional constructed language (as opposed to an auxiliary language) in the Wiktionary--Bayyoc 20:21, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
• Comment. The link from the Vfd page to this page appears to be bad. Dcarrano 18:56, July 22, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Tolkien minutiae is non-notable, "rare form of homo sapien" [sic] is hoax or unverifiable. Dcarrano 18:56, July 22, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as a fairly through reader of Tolkien, I do not recall this term, and don't think it was used in his works, pending a citation. Even if it was, it was certainly not a promenient term in his mythology, and does not have the notability of, for example "Valar". The other meaning looks like a hoax, or at best some sort of neologism. DES ^(talk) 20:48, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
