Arien is not a significant character, let alone one who has enough coverage to justify an article. Not even every major character in a significant work needs an article. Except Arien is a minor character, hardly even that, in the Silmarillion, which is not a major work. The fact that we only have the primary sourcing to the fictional work she appears in is telling. The fact that this article dates back to August 2003 shows how super focused early Wikipedia was on the minutia of fantasy works. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 15:51, 26 December 2019 (UTC)
