==Useful categories==

*[[:Category:Tolkien]]

*[[:Category:J. R. R. Tolkien]]

*[[:Category:Middle-earth]]

Line 10 ⟶ 11:

*[[List_of_Middle-earth_articles]]

*[[List_of_Middle-earth_articles_by_category]]

*[[List of Middle-earth writings]]

*[[List of Middle-earth characters]]

*[[List of Middle-earth peoples]]

*[[List of Middle-earth rivers]]

*[[Realms of Arda]]

*[[Timeline of Arda]]

*[[User:Carcharoth/Tolkien categories]]

*[[User:General Wesc/List of Middle-earth articles]]

Gather the lists together into categories such as [[:Category:Tolkien lists]] and [[:Category:Middle-earth lists]].

==Redirects==

See [[:Category:Middle-earth redirects]].

==Disambiguation pages==

Some of these may need to be checked using "What links here" and the relevant articles redirected back to the correct page.

*[[Gandalf (disambiguation)]]

==Top-level categories==

Line 52 ⟶ 73:

Category would also have a link to a family page if and when it exists, or a suitable page with the family tree on it, or maybe even include the family tree. One version of the family tree is at [[Tolkien Estate]].

===Friends and Acquaintances===

Incomplete list, mainly of people mentioned in Biography and Letters.

*[[C. S. Lewis]]

*[[Owen Barfield]]

*[[Charles Williams]]

*[[Humphrey Carpenter]]

*[[Roger Lancelyn Green]]

===Editors, Biographers and Literary executors===

*[[Christopher Tolkien]]

*[[Humphrey Carpenter]]

*[[Guy Gavriel Kay]]

===Translators===

===Artists===

Line 67 ⟶ 110:

*[[Inger Edelfeldt]]

Line 78 ⟶ 121:

*[[Margrethe II of Denmark]]

*[[Eric Fraser]]

*[[Sam R. Balcomb]]

*[[Jack Gaughan]]

More artists could be added to this category. Issues of notability may be important here. And also what qualifies someone for this category. I would propose anyone who has published an artwork inspired by or representing a scene from Tolkien's works.

===Musicians===

*[[Tolkien Ensemble]]

*[[Donald Swann]]

*[[Howard Shore]]

===Authors/Linguists/Researchers===

Propose: [[:Category:Tolkien scholars, researchers and authors]]

*[[Stanley Unwin (publisher)|Stanley Unwin]]

*[[Milton Waldman]]

*[[Donald A. Wollheim]]

*[[Ian Ballantine]]

===Other===

Line 139 ⟶ 193:

Since this is a loose collection of wide-ranging articles connected by Tolkien, no other parent categories are needed. Specifically, this is to avoid the various articles ending up "underneath" the various parts of the tree in which "Tolkien the person" ends up (such as author, British, philologist, etc.).

*[[Howard Shore]]

*[[J.W._Braun]]

*[[Kirill_Yeskov]]

Line 152 ⟶ 205:
