Welcome to Tolkien Gateway! I, along with those who wish to help contribute, hope to create the largest encyclopedia based on [[J.R.R. Tolkien]]'s works on the net. You may be a bit confused, seeing as the site is a bit different than most sites. It allows anyone, anywhere, to update any page, instantly. We keep moderators online 24/7 to monitor for spam, but giving users the ability to update mistakes, and add to content, we find the site expands much quicker and gives users the sense of contribution.
