Welcome to Mith's talk page.

Please post your new topic at the bottom of this page, including a ==Descriptive heading==.
You should sign and date your posts by inserting "~~~~" at the end of them.
Please indent your posts with ":" if replying to an existing topic (or "::" if replying to a reply, etc.).
I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your talk page (or the article talk page, if you are writing to me about an article), so you may want to watch this page.
If I have left a message on your talk page, please continue the discussion there; DO NOT reply here. This is ensure that discussions do not become fragmented over several talk pages.

Clams in The Chaining of Melko

Latest comment: 21 April 20255 comments2 people in discussion

Happy Easter! I am sorry that I harass you: You moved my message to archive, but I would still like to add back the information that clams with pearls had existed since the very beginning of the world. [1] I still feel that it is an important detail adding context to the creation of Silmarils. May I write this? How and where?

It is a random piece of trivia that doesn't link to the rest of the paragraph or the entire article about the Chaining of Melko. If you can make it relevant to the article then add it in.

In future if you want to discuss an individual article you should do it on that article's talk page, rather than on a user page. As such, I won't be responding to further messages here about that article. --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 18:34, 20 April 2025 (UTC)Reply[reply]

OK, I am sorry, thank you. Relevant as context for the creation of Silmarils - I hope. Well, in this situation I felt that I found a way to put this information where it is relevant, I am just reporting it, so you can revert it. Optimistically looking, there is no need to continue discussions, if there is a need, I have to use the article talk. To be honest, it seems that I have to hope that my edit in the article is better than this answer - I am sorry. BartekChom (talk) 21:23, 20 April 2025 (UTC)Reply[reply]

If it is context for the creation of the Silmarils why are you putting it in an article about the Chaining of Melko which makes no other reference to the Silmarils? This is exactly my point. The information is not relevant to the rest of the article. It is just a fragmentary factoid.

You are just further convincing me this information does not belong in this article. --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 04:10, 21 April 2025 (UTC)Reply[reply]

OK, I am sorry that my explanation is unclear. Now the information is in Silmarils#The Book of Lost Tales. (Actually earlier I was putting the synopsis of a chapter in the article about the chapter.) BartekChom (talk) 06:36, 21 April 2025 (UTC)Reply[reply]
