Text and/or other creative content from The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power was copied or moved into The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (season 1). The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists.

Blatantly biased article and apparently censorship to anyone who disagrees..[edit]

This article doesn't even try to have an nuanced/objective POV - I'm in shock. It saddens me deeply that the moderators in charge clearly have forgotten the basic rules and guidelines of this site.. This is just plain embarrassing to begin with - I can't even count how many guidelines this article violates. And before my comment gets deleted (which I'm sure it does) how come we can't have an open minded nuanced discussion about the subject? - or it easier to just silence anyone who dare question the main agenda? Laroucan (talk) 12:12, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Laroucan Do you have specific edits you would suggest making to the article? Or do you want to just generically rage against the article? The former is the correct pathway to have proper discourse about editing on Wikipedia, while the latter will not lead anywhere productive. Not a single editor has been censored for properly working on this page, and there is no political or other form of agenda on Wikipedia beyond following the basic rules, guidelines, and essays, including but not limited to MOS:TV, WP:POV, WP:DUE, WP:OR, WP:RS, WP:UGC, WP:AGF, and WP:FORUM. If you would kindly point to specific areas where this or related articles violate any of these or other policies, that would be helpful. Otherwise, this is not the place to discuss the reasons for you not liking the show. Have a good week. TNstingray (talk) 16:50, 30 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Audience response - metrics[edit]

Is there a reason why there are no quantitative metrics/descriptive statistics in section for Rotten Tomatoes, Metacritic, IMDB, and Fandango audience reviews? Before I spend time putting them in the article I would like to know if they are banned. 2601:646:9E02:6D60:8953:AF7C:387C:ED5B (talk) 04:51, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We don't use audience ratings like that per WP:USERGENERATED, although this article does have commentary on the audience ratings from reliable sources. - adamstom97 (talk) 06:38, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Title still in italics[edit]

The title for this page still has "season 1" displaying in italics. Couldn't figure out how to change it. What an absolute mess this completely unnecessary change has caused (I wish I had known about the discussion so I could have voted against it....) TNstingray (talk) 18:44, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

At first glance I don't see any difference between this article and the one for S2 that would explain why it is working for S2 and not S1. - adamstom97 (talk) 18:51, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is fixed now. - adamstom97 (talk) 12:46, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
