==About Me==
==About Me==
I am a high school student and a fan of Tolkien's works. While I am eager to expand my knowledge over Tolkien's writings, I by no means consider myself an expert, and gear my revisions of this wiki towards correcting typos, grammar, link problems and references. I also occasionally rewrite poorly written bits of articles to help with the flow, but I try to avoid making any major changes. If I do something wrong, PLEASE let me know on my talk page. I love this site, and hold it as a valuable resource. The last thing I want to do is create problems for the other users. Thank you!

While I am eager to expand my knowledge of Tolkien's writings, I by no means consider myself a scholar, and gear my revisions of this wiki towards correcting typos and grammar (why I enjoy proofreading, I don't know, but I find it remarkably fun). I occasionally make more major changes, and although I do my very best to be careful, I am not perfect. If I do something wrong, <em>please</em> let me know on my [[User talk:Grace18|talk page]].  


==Random Questions I Feel Bad Bothering Anyone With==
For any new users with questions about how the wiki works, I'll be happy to help to the best of my ability, although the more complex details are beyond my expertise.
