The result was redirect to The Book of Lost Tales. No evidence of independent notability, but no reason this would be harmful as a search term. History has been left intact for any merging that's desired. ~ mazca ^talk 22:04, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

the article sums it up nicely when it says "Eltas remains overall a mysterious and unexplored minor figure" Ridernyc (talk) 21:22, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to The Book of Lost Tales. Uthanc (talk) 06:12, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Before the nominator says it's not notable enough to ever be a search term, consider that it's Tolkien stuff. Some will inevitably treat Wikipedia like a Tolkien encyclopedia site. I'm not saying we should keep every single scrap of info but there's a place for everything no matter how small. Uthanc (talk) 12:19, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

redirect Every named tolkien character should be included, at least as a redirect, even for the backstory. . There's no possible reason why a redirect would be harmful. it will help some people: yhere is no name in Tokien that people may not look for. . Redirect are an easy compromise in situations like this. DGG ( talk ) 14:37, 16 March 2010 (UTC) .[reply]
Redirect. Given that there are no secondary sources, this obscure character can not be given encyclopedic treatment. Abductive (reasoning) 03:58, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
