Good article

Criteria

• Well-written:

• the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct:

• it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:

• Verifiable with no original research:

• it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:

• reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose):

• it contains no original research:

• it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism:

• Broad in its coverage:

• it addresses the main aspects of the topic:

• it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):

• Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:

• Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:

• Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:

• media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content:

• media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:

Comments

• I'd appreciate an expansion of the first paragraph of the lead - one sentence is not enough for so important a character.

Done.

• Also, I think the paragraph about his role in The Hobbit could be expanded.

Done.

• "The Lord of the Rings, begins [...]" - remove excess comma.

Gone.

• The link to Lotho in the family tree redirects to "The Shire" and should be excised.

Gone.

• "Throughout the 2003 video game The Hobbit the players control Bilbo," - comma should be added after "The Hobbit".

Added.

• Ref 13 to Appendix C should be a primary source and not secondary.

Fixed.

Otherwise, an excellent article! On hold till all the above issues are fixed. JavaHurricane 07:34, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
