Glow-worms

In "The Stairs of Cirith Ungol" chapter of The Two Towers, the term "glow-worm" is used, which, I believe, should take precedence over the term "glowworm" from The Book of Lost Tales.Dour1234 (talk) 23:45, 10 July 2025 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I assume that you wanted to propose that the Glowworms page and its discussion (i.e. talk) page are moved to the Glow-worms page (which is currently only a redirect page that redirects to the Glowworms page). I agree with such a proposal, because it is likely that more readers of Tolkien Gateway have The Lord of the Rings, but do not have The Book of Lost Tales Part One or The Book of Lost Tales Part Two and may thus search for the term glow-worms that was used in The Lord of the Rings. A page called Glowworms can then redirect to the Glow-worms page. --Akhôrahil (talk) 07:37, 15 July 2025 (UTC)Reply[reply]
That makes sense to me. JR Snow (talk) 17:00, 16 July 2025 (UTC)Reply[reply]
