| − | Hang on, hobbits? I know they look short, but when is this supposed to happen? Wouldn't Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas be more likely choices, given the chronology? {{unsigned ip|98.216.97.56}}

| − | :Yeah but they're clearly not as differentiated as Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas would be, and if they were human/elf height then Gandalf and Shadowfacts would be enormous. -Pennpenn [[Special:Contributions/108.162.250.162|108.162.250.162]] 01:10, 2 June 2015 (UTC)

| − | Nitpicking: changed "trilogy" to "novel". Trilogy is a set of three novels with a common theme or characters and each novel from the set can be read separately without knowing the other ones. ''The Lord of the Rings'' is a single novel (divided into six books, by the way) that just happened to be published in three volumes originally. The tradition is often maintained, but often not. You can hardly understand what's going on in ''The Two Towers'' (the second volume) without reading ''The Fellowship of the Ring'' first.{{unsigned ip|89.174.214.74}}

| − | : If we're being picky, Tolkien said LOTR was "not a novel, but an heroic romance, a much older and quite different variety of literature". [[http://tolkiengateway.net/wiki/Letter_329 Letter 329]] [[Special:Contributions/96.231.58.51|96.231.58.51]] 18:01, 11 October 2013 (UTC)

| − | I removed this line about BBC Ceefax: "It is possibly related to the BBC's {{w|Ceefax}} system, but this is not as likely". I can't see any link between the comic and Ceefax. If anyone disagrees, reinstate it, but please explain how it is relevant. --[[User:Pudder|Pudder]] ([[User talk:Pudder|talk]]) 12:13, 13 November 2014 (UTC)

| − | I suppose it could be relevant to mention the etymology of the original name. ''Shadowfax'' is a phonetic adaptation of Old English ''Sceadufæx'' "shadow-(colored) mane/coat" (though in the movies his hair is very much white). ''LOTR'' typically uses Old English to represent the language of the Rohirrim. [[Special:Contributions/188.114.110.7|188.114.110.7]] 18:05, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
