Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Red Arrow (Middle-earth)
to List of Middle-earth objects. The topic meets all five criteria of the |general notability guideline and there are two independent reliable secondary sources in the article right now. More could be added per Warden's comment above. So what if it will never be a 10,000 word article. |Wikipedia is not paper, so we don't have to pick and choose what little articles we can include and which we have to cut—we can include them all. I agree that not much was said about the Red Arrow in LoTR. Because of this, ''significant'' coverage in secondary sources might mean only a paragraph or two, but it would be a shame to see that information lost. (Did you know there was an historical antecedent in Old English poetry? I didn't.) At the very least, it should be merged. Because it is a token and ''symbol''—neither weapon nor armor—I think it would be perfect in List of Middle-earth objects along with the Arkenstone, Nauglamír, Phial of Galadriel, etc. Cheers
