Ideas for Agenda

• Establish a course of action for images.-- KingAragorn  talk  contribs  edits  email  21:53, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
  • What should we do about images made for role-playing games? Who owns the copyright? Fair-use?-- KingAragorn  talk  contribs  edits  email  16:15, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
• How can we get more traffic to TG? How can we get more editors on TG? We need a long strategy and one which will address the likely increase in traffic following the release of the films.-- KingAragorn  talk  contribs  edits  email  19:14, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
• Do we need to have an article for every song of soundtrack albums and every scene of films? -- KingAragorn  talk  contribs  edits  email  19:31, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
• Continue discussion from earlier meeting: how to do with the issue of canon? Should we stop using Template:Disputedcanon and Template:Disputedcanon? Should it be up to the reader to decide the canonical status, based on given references (and the text of the article)?--Morgan 00:06, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
• How should we calculate Fourth Age years? See here (under the header "Converting Fourth Age Dates") for an overview of why I ask.-- KingAragorn  talk  contribs  edits  email  15:37, 26 June 2012 (UTC)
• Re:Talk:Boromir (Lord of Ladros): Should there be a standard for disambiguation? Do we give preference to a patronymic over a title, or the other way round? --Ederchil ^{(Talk/Contribs/Edits)} 15:49, 26 June 2012 (UTC)
• Have we determined how to date the First Age years? Robert Foster had made some work to assemble a FA "Tale of Years" based on the published Silmarillion. Tolkien had made more detailed dating in his Grey/Annals/of Valinor, but at times they contradict the published Silmarillion.—Unsigned comment by Sage (talk • contribs).
