User:Ederchil/Sandbox

This is a test page by User:Ederchil. It is currently a hunting ground for the new references system.

A couple of ways to refer to books, articles, et cetera. Voice comments and concerns on the talk page. Page numbers et cetera serve as example

LotR

• J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring, Strider

50th Anniversary edition

• J.R.R. Tolkien; Wayne G. Hammond, Christina Scull (editors), The Lord of the Rings (50th anniversary edition), The Fellowship of the Ring, Strider

Note: Editors are separated from the author by a semi-colon.

Appendices

• J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings, Appendix A, I: The Númenorean Kings, iii: Eriador, Arnor, and the Heirs of Isildur

Note:Even though they are published in The Return of the King in many editions, the Apendices are appended to The Lord of the Rings proper; they are, one might say, a fourth volume.

• J.R.R. Tolkien, The Hobbit, Riddles in the Dark (first edition)

UT, Sil

• J.R.R. Tolkien; Christopher Tolkien (editor), Unfinished Tales, The Drúedain

"Nomenclature"

• J.R.R. Tolkien, "Nomenclature of The Lord of the Rings", published in The Lord of the Rings: A Reader's Companion (by Wayne G. Hammond and Christina Scull), page number

Note: Because the printed text in Lobdell (ed.) A Tolkien Compass, 1st edn. is no longer freely available, I vote for only referencing to this occurance of the source.

Other semi-secondary material by Tolkien

• J.R.R. Tolkien, "Words, Phrases & Passages in 'The Lord of the Rings'" (edited by Christopher Gilson), Parma Eldalamberon 17 (June 2007), page 113.
