Attempted to recommend an edit to Orodreth page and got an http error 403 message. Attempted to join discord (clicked on invite link) that also didn't work out. This site is going downhill fast. New design kind'a blows too.—Unsigned comment by Lost Númenórean (talk • contribs).
- Hi Lost Númenórean! Sorry to hear you're having trouble. I'm able to edit Orodreth and access the Discord link. It sounds like you might want to try restarting your computer or clearing your browser cache as we're also seeing a steady stream of successful edits/Discord joins from other users. Is there anything specific with the new design that you'd like to see changed? Thanks for your feedback! --Hyarion (talk) 13:39, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hello Hyarion! 2 things - 1) I was only wanting to recommend an edit, not actually make the edit. I was going to make this recommendation in the discussion section. That is where I got the error notification. 2) The design doesn't really blow, it's just new and I'm still getting use to it.—Unsigned comment by Lost Númenórean (talk • contribs).
- Hm, I went ahead and started a new topic at Talk:Orodreth and didn't receive an error. If the issue persists and restarting your computer didn't help, just let me know what time you received the error along with your time zone and I can investigate further. In regards to the design, you're more than welcome to switch back to the old design by clicking the person icon in the corner and selecting Preferences > Appearance (the old design is called "Timeless"). --Hyarion (talk) 15:29, 21 July 2024 (UTC)

I'm still receiving the error when attempting to post my comment. :(
With that said, here is the comment I'm attempting to post: In the 'Arrival of Beren' section further context is needed
Seems like there should be additional context as to how Orodreth fell from power, before returning to power in this section:
"However, Celegorm and Curufin, the Sons of Fëanor, were also at Nargothrond at the time, and persuaded almost all the people of Nargothrond to refuse to accompany Finrod on the quest for the Silmaril so that only Edrahil and ten companions agreed to go with Finrod and Beren. Finrod gave his crown to Orodreth to rule Nargothrond as a regent in his absence. [EXPLAIN WHY/HOW FEANOR'S SONS TEMPORARILY USURPED ORODRETH DURING FINROD'S ABSENCE] When news came that Finrod had been killed and that Tol-in-Gaurhoth had been destroyed, the sons of Fëanor were shamed and fell from power, as the people cried out that the maiden Lúthien had done what the sons of Fëanor dared not. Orodreth returned to power and expelled Celegorm and Curufin from Nargothrond."
