Please stop your
disruptive editing.
If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Northern courage in Middle-earth, you may be blocked from editing. You have been informed, several times, that your edits were mistaken, and the reasons why that was so have repeatedly been explained to you: further, I told you I was away and would respond as soon as I could. Rather than waiting, you have repeatedly made drastic edits to the article, which is highly disruptive. Please await my reply, and I will read and action your comments properly in the article if any of them are usable, or if need be explain why they aren't usable. We can then discuss further; edit-warring is however unacceptable, so please stop editing the article at once until we have agreed a way ahead. Thank you.

Hello, I'm
Chiswick Chap. I noticed that you made a comment on the page
Talk:Northern courage in Middle-earth that didn't seem very
civil, so it may have been removed. Wikipedia is built on collaboration, so it's one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on
my talk page. Thank you.

You may be
blocked from editing without further warning the next time you
vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at
Northern courage in Middle-earth. Please stop edit-warring at once.

Please
stop attacking other editors, as you did on
Northern courage in Middle-earth. If you continue, you may be
blocked from editing. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people.

This is your only warning; if you
vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at
Northern courage in Middle-earth, you may be
blocked from editing without further notice. No, Tolkien was not a "Modernist"; scholars are definite on that: he was "modern" (20th century) but certainly not ironic about his work, for example; saying so in the article is a clear misinterpretation of sources and wholly inappropriate

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

I note your multiple edits to Paganism in Middle-earth. I have responded to these one-by-one as these are more like normal edits than your earlier mass deletions: I'm grateful for the change. Your edit comment "Eru is remote in some ways, but is present throughout The Silmarillion in all kinds of ways" is probably worth commenting upon, as it implies that you think that a cited statement in a formally-reviewed article can be edited or removed based on an editor's opinion about the meaning of the statement. Now that would be editorializing: relying on one's personal knowledge, beliefs, or opinions to make an editorial change. The statement in the article, however, is not of that kind. It is cited - correctly, I just checked - to Curry 1998; and the phrase "remains remote" is present there. In fact it's more than that: Curry was quoting Tolkien, who states in terms that Eru was not directly accessible to Middle-earth beings. I fully understand that a Christian might be pleased with the correspondences between the Christian God and Eru, and might wish to assert that Eru was present in all sorts of ways, but that would be a personal wish, opinion, or indeed religious position, and all such things are strictly forbidden on Wikipedia (all content must be written from a Neutral Point of View). This too is a core Wikipedia policy, so whatever you may believe, you must not allow any of it to creep into your editing. All the best, Chiswick Chap ( talk) 10:30, 20 March 2023 (UTC)

When did I claim that the Athrabeth uses the word "Christ"? I was told by yourself that Christopher Tolkien's commentary is a primary source and thus not allowed on Wikipdia. 71.114.123.162 (talk) 14:45, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
