| - 1. This is a Book First Tolkien Mythology wiki, which means that all non-canon stuff is to be put in its proper place. (Images are excluded from this rule due to the lack of any canonical pictures of many things in Tolkien Mythology.) Details of this rule:
* Objects, characters, creatures, weapons, plots, descriptions, and all other information found in movies, video games, card-playing games, online games, role-playing games, or board games must placed in an article's Portrayal in adaptations section and justified properly.
* All non-canon articles must have the following notices and be placed in the following categories.
* {{NonCanon}} at the top of the page.
* Everything Noncanon belongs in the categories under [[Category:Non-canonical topics]].
* If you are going to use a Infobox for a Non-canonical character you must use [[Template:Infobox Non-canonical Character]] NOT the ones listed here: [[Template:Infobox Person]] because the use of Infobox Non-canonical Character gets them listed in [[Category:Non-canonical characters]] where the article should be. Non-canonical characters DO NOT belong in [[Category:Characters]] because they are NOT canon.
* Following Darkchylde's model for Non-canon articles all of them should have ==Portrayal in adaptations== instead of ==History== and ==Biography==, since they are Non-canon. 2. Fandom, that is, characters from LOTR discussion forums, war gaming sites, someones' mind out of the blue, Video game MODs (Characters and any other things) are not allowed here except in one's Userspace (example: in User:DarkLantern) Fandom or fan fictions are forbidden in all mainstream sections except in personal Namespaces and Userspaces. If you want to create Fan Fiction please write it at the Fandom place here: LOTR Fanon wiki. 3. From this time forward the unofficial rule of no to pages on figurants (unnamed people and characters) from official literature to movies and video games is now the rule on this wikicity. For example: no solo pages on such things like 'Hobbit(s)' standing behind Frodo or Bilbo, or 'Men' or 'Man' standing behind Aragorn or Faramir, or 'Elves' standing behind Arwen or Elrond in the movie or movies is forbidden. All unnamed peoples and characters that clearly appear in the movies or video games but have no name belong in List of unnamed original characters of the books and films and will remain there. This also means no to any Fandom Names without any official proof from things like a Decipher Card made by Decipher, Inc.. The origin of this rule grew out of this complaint: User_talk:DarkLantern/Archive_3#Articles_for_deletion.
