I reviewed this for WP:Good article status, so I'm not going to review it for DYK. That being said, I think the hook should mention Tolkien and include a link. I also don't think the proposed hook is all that interesting, but I'll leave that to the reviewer. TompaDompa (talk) 04:41, 20 January 2023 (UTC)
- A well-written and comprehensive article. The Tolkien nerd in me cannot find anything missing, and enjoyed reading it. Recent GA nominated within the necessary time period. QPQ done. I agree that the hook should be complemented, e.g. '... that the fictional character Morgoth, the main antagonist in J. R. R. Tolkien's The Silmarillion, has been seen as analogous to Satan?'. This provides more context, and is likely to bring in more readers. Otherwise this is good to go. Constantine ✍ 17:14, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
