Ideas for Agenda

• Where has Hyarion been? Has/can/will the problem with his account be fixed? -- KingAragorn  talk  contribs  edits  email  15:19, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
  • This has been fixed.--Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 09:52, 13 November 2011 (UTC)
• Any progress on TG email addresses? -- KingAragorn  talk  contribs  edits  email  15:19, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
• Does the meeting agree that I should contact Ted Nasmtih, Alan Lee, and John Howe to request permission to use their artwork? And, if so, where can we get a digital version of all of Alan Lee's stuff? -- KingAragorn  talk  contribs  edits  email  15:19, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
• I think we all need to be braver and start tackling the bigger, more popular articles. Why don't we have a "Countdown to The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey", wherein each month we go down the list of popular pages and collaborate on articles which relate to The Hobbit. So we would make perfect: Gandalf, Sauron (the Necromancer page needs to be merged with Sauron), The Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins, Elrond, Thorin (still needs a bit of expansion in history section), Rivendell, Battle of Five Armies, Gollum, Mirkwood, Dol Guldur, and Thranduil.
  • Maybe we can also include Galadriel and Radagast, because they also appear in the Hobbit films? --Amroth 15:41, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
    • There are only 12 months in a year. Do you think Galadriel and Radagast are more important than Dol Guldur and Thranduil? I suppose we could not bother with Sauron; but, then again, Sauron really needs doing up. -- KingAragorn  talk  contribs  edits  email  15:56, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
      • You've a good point there, though we have 13 months before it's 14 December so we could have a 13th article. But I agree Dol Guldur and Thranduil are more important, but what about Erebor or one of the Dwarves as 13th article? --Amroth 14:58, 12 November 2011 (UTC)
• Single/plural article names (I don't think we decided before). --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 09:52, 13 November 2011 (UTC)
