Non-notable fictional characters. Only meaningfully discussed in [1], all other references in reliable secondary sources appear to be referencing that first article and do not provide additional coverage. Article also contains some possible OR problems, as there is an entire section speculating on what the names could mean, which is unsourced. The rest of the article is all plot. The one substantial source is not enough to demonstrate SIGCOV. Hog Farm (talk) 00:34, 30 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per my prod: ": Two fictional characters that couldn't even justify separate articles at the height of Tolkien fancruft creationism, apparently. Fail WP:GNG/WP:NFICTION". --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 10:09, 30 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete They are background, minor characters and have not received enough secondary coverage to justify an article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:27, 30 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Elrond#Lord of Rivendell These characters are a very minor part of The Lord of the Rings ―Susmuffin ^Talk 17:26, 30 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. They just go along for the ride in LOTR and don't even show up in the films. Clarityfiend (talk) 20:25, 30 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Not showing up in the films is not relevant, but just coming along for the ride is a key to them not being important. Arwen might not even make it to notability on the book, the films give her an expanded role, even if they cut out her making Aragorn's banner.John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:18, 31 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
