:Something I just though of (that may be completely off-topic).  I wonder how the [[Easterlings]] felt, coming out of the (presumably) warm plains of [[Rhûn]] to the harsh cold mountains of [[Erebor]]?  Cold?  Or is there a record that they had been raiding that area previous to that time?  I know they came as far as [[Rohan]]. --[[User:Narfil Palùrfalas|Narfil Palùrfalas]] 18:54, 6 March 2007 (EST)

Well then I think we should rename it the War in the North, since Rhovanion sometimes is refered to the old kingdom founded by North-men.
I do know that the Easterlings frequently were at war with the kingdom of Dale at its eastern border (the river Carnen)  .--[[User:Dwarf Lord|Dwarf Lord]] 21:11, 6 March 2007 (EST)

Revision as of 02:11, 7 March 2007

This article needs a new title. It is more of a campaign than a single battle, otherwise we could do Battle of Mirkwood (if there is more than one Battle of Mirkwood (WotR)) and Battle of Lothlórien. Several ideas: Dol Guldur Campaign (WotR) or Rhovanion Campaign. More comments later. --Narfil Palùrfalas 12:54, 12 October 2006 (EDT)

I like Battle of Mirkwood and the Lothlorien ones, and the Dol Guldur Campaign would be good for the wotr template, if that's what you were refering to? --Dwarf Lord 13:09, 12 October 2006 (EDT)
As an article title, I'd be inclined to go with something like "The Battles of Mirkwood" or "The War in Mirkwood". --Ted C 13:40, 12 October 2006 (EDT)
Except that this includes battles in Lothlórien and the second siege of Dol Guldur. I think I like Rhovanion Campaign (WotR).--Narfil Palùrfalas 14:05, 12 October 2006 (EDT)

Very nice Narfil. Now if we could get a template for this article we're set. --Dwarf Lord 14:16, 22 October 2006 (CDT)

Maybe we should change the name to either the Battle of Mirkwood, which would just talk about Thranduil's battle, or the Wilderland Campaign. --Dwarf Lord 16:24, 6 March 2007 (EST)

The information is limited enough that we probably shouldn't divide it up too much. We should have an article on the campaign as a whole, in my opinion, though I'm fine with creating articles on the individual battles.
Something I just though of (that may be completely off-topic). I wonder how the Easterlings felt, coming out of the (presumably) warm plains of Rhûn to the harsh cold mountains of Erebor? Cold? Or is there a record that they had been raiding that area previous to that time? I know they came as far as Rohan. --Narfil Palùrfalas 18:54, 6 March 2007 (EST)

Well then I think we should rename it the War in the North, since Rhovanion sometimes is refered to the old kingdom founded by North-men.

I do know that the Easterlings frequently were at war with the kingdom of Dale at its eastern border (the river Carnen) .--Dwarf Lord 21:11, 6 March 2007 (EST)
