Greetings, all. Just call me Ederchil.

For now, I'll basically press Random page and edit if it definately needs editing. I'm a linguophile, so it's mostly etymologies and the language categories that I'll edit. I'm a bit of a purist. I can cope with any kind of reconstruction as long as it doesn't come from David Salo.

Who I really am

I'm a 21 year old Dutch student. I'm from Groningen, way up North.

To Do List

Stuff I'm planning to do, some day:

• Some expanding of menel.
• An article on the Gondorian dialect of Sindarin.
• An article on the Elvish words for Dwarf and the use of them.
• Split up RGEO in book and song, dab the links and expand the book article.
• Check and correct etymologies of names when necessary.
• Cleaning up any mess I see.
• Write an article on Robert Irelands A Tolkien Dictionary.
• Clean all articles of references to above to replace them with attested ones.
• Write an article about, and use the information of, Ondonórë Nomesseron Minaþúrië.
• Write articles about Barbara Strachey and William Elvin.
• Write something on money in Middle-earth.
