: : The compilation is indeed an impressive amount of work, but I : : detect other errors of fact in it. I would warn people : : against using this page as any sort of resource. It not only : : doesn't distinguish between non-canonical contributions and : : Tolkien's work, the historical inaccuracies make it truly : : suspect.: The pages I share with the group aren't meant for the purpose : of debate, but rather to help out the RPGr's out there who are : looking for ways to make their lives easier. The names and : chronologies of kings of Cardolan and Rhudaur - when already : laid out by someone else - can be a great resource to a GM. If the GM doesn't care for accuracy with respect to works of Tolkien, sure, I agree. But it's only fair to point out that there are inaccuracies in the data. At the very least, the GMs can look for such flaws and correct them in their own notes.
