Deletion of Realms of Arda

Comment: Note: I am a Tolkien fan and a member of ikiProject Middle-earth, which BTW should have been informed of the nomination.) Simple lists like this are inappropriate in case of fictional topics, especially with Tolkien's works: a) simple links to separate articles are useless, considering that most of them are candidates for merging; b) many of the notes currently attached to entries tend to drift into OR, and this cannot be emended without whole passages of annotation; c) as mentioned above, the list mixes up realms, regions and nations; d) ''possibly'' some appropriate replacement will be created in future, if ever some "Geography of Middle-earth" will be created (as a merge target for articles that do not deserve separate pages and at the same time do not suit "Minor places in ..."); e) as a link farm, it is mostly edited for updates after page moves etc.; f) finally, the page has been virtually replaced by :Category:Middle-earth realms and by Template:Arda Realms Age1, Template:Arda Realms Age2, Template:Arda Realms Age3

Comment: some physics articles also rely on previous knowledge (''explaining subject matter to those outside of the "fandom."''), and context is provided in the first paragraph. That the article has equivalents or translations in http://cs.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seznam_st%C3%A1t%C5%AF_St%C5%99edozem%C4%9B Czech, http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regionen_und_Orte_in_Tolkiens_Welt German, http://lb.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%A4nner_a_Stied_aus_Middle-earth Luxembourgish and http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regioner_och_platser_i_Tolkiens_v%C3%A4rld Swedish shows its wide appeal. And, as always, #PAPER. Article could do with a cleanup, however. &mdash
