I am so going to grab this GAN, as part of the June Backlog drive.
Congrats, if there were such a thing as a "quick pass", I'd unequivocably give this article it. What a breath of fresh air; an article that was already ready for a GAN before it was submitted. I thank you so much for that! Granted, I did a quick read of its prose and only checked a few sources, but I find very little wrong about this article. The prose seems solid and well-written. The sources also seem good, high quality, and academic. I also admit that other than reading The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings a few times, the sources strike me as authoritative and well-chosen. The sources also seem to actually support the statements and claims made, which I also highly appreciate because one of my personal pet peeves (and something that seems to plague a lot of WP articles) is when that doesn't happen. What a great contribution to Tolkien studies on Wikipedia! The only suggestion I have is to request another expert to look at it because they'd be in a better postition to seriously evaluate it. (I have a classmate in the English MA program who would qualify, although they're not a WP editor, but if you like, I'd be happy to have them look at it.) Then, run--don't walk--to FAC. In the meantime, I will happily pass this to GA now. Please let me know when you submit this to FAC and I will assist. Best, Christine (Figureskatingfan) ( talk) 22:46, 16 June 2022 (UTC)
