Middle-earth book articles, film articles

Hi, and thanks for your efforts to improve Wikipedia.

It may help to know that there are many Middle-earth articles. Many of these are about Tolkien's books, whether covering characters and places, or literary analysis such as heroism and other themes. Another quite distinct group of articles are about adaptations such as Peter Jackson's films, whether covering production, music or other aspects of those versions. We may mention film adaptations briefly at the end of a 'book' article (or we may not), but we never devote book articles to adaptations, and we don't therefore need 'film' material in the infobox. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 13:05, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

Ohhh, I see. I apologize. Thank you for correcting me! NerdyMatt (talk) 13:07, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:It Devours book cover.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:20, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
