This is a purely in-universe list of fictional locations in Middle-earth with no clear inclusion criteria: some of the entries have articles, others link to small sections, others are not described anywhere meaningfully. Further, there are no references.

From a real world perspective, Middle-earth § Geography covers the topic at hand. For navigational purposes, Outline of Middle-earth § Geography lists all the notable locations. There is no need to present fictional geography in this level of granularity. BenKuykendall (talk) 00:23, 10 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Listcruft. Middle-earth#Geography covers the topic, and a list of entries (some a bit obscure) with no context does nothing good for us. Hog Farm (talk) 03:35, 10 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This is a very obscure term for the locations in Middle-earth. ―Susmuffin ^Talk 20:39, 10 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete another indiscriminate list article incorporating unneeded minutiae. Every scap of paper Tolkien jotted a note on does not create notability, even if his son managed to get a surprisingly large number of those scraps of paper published.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:53, 11 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Tolkien cruft, nothing here suggests notability. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 20:22, 12 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
