Missing Article[edit source]

An article which was formerly here is now gone. If either article was to be asset-stripped, I would've voted for Woses, seeing as Drúedain is more common name and the term they are usually known by.

Is it possible that we could not have this deletion of a particular term unless it has been discussed? --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 12:10, 23 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
