Infobox

I added an infobox for consistency with other conflicts, and a recently uploaded pic as well. The series of Wars should link together in a rational manner.--Theoden1 17:31, 5 July 2008 (EDT)

Valarin participation

Did Orome and Tulkas actually participate as commanders in the Battles of Beleriand? I am under the impression that no being greater in status and power than Eonwe fought in the War of Wrath.

Name?

I can't seem to find the term "Battles of Beleriand" anywhere in the canon but "Wars of Beleriand" and "War of the Jewels" seem to be very frequently used. I suggest this should be renamed to "Wars of Beleriand". Thoughts?--Tengwar 03:16, 26 November 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

"Battles of Beleriand" is used in the Silmarillion's Index, but "Wars of Beleriand" is used in the narrative. I think you are right, but let me check HoMe. --LorenzoCB 08:53, 26 November 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Okay yeah you are correct. Considering this page is a page for a war, I think the page should be renamed to "War of the Jewels" or "Wars of Beleriand" and a section is written as "Battles of Beleriand" for the 5 major battles (as titled in the index) and a seperate section for "Minor Battles" in chronological order.--Tengwar 15:14, 26 November 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
