Category talk:Middle-earth languages

Scope for enlarging language pages
Category currently has only 12 articles, less than half the number Wikipedia has in the same category. Gaps in the numbers can be filled easily enough. Their length and/or quality is of more concern.

Some of them are among the shortest pages in this wiki, whereas we should be aimimg to have them among the longest. Here's the list of shortest "articles" as of a few minutes ago:

Sandbox (129 bytes) Dictionary_of_Select_Synonyms (158 bytes) Current_events (220 bytes) Legendarium (541 bytes) Eldar (557 bytes) Common_Eldarin (560 bytes) Primitive_Quendian (873 bytes) Third_Age (1046 bytes) Taliska (1239 bytes) Adûnaic (1362 bytes) Dictionary_of_Selected_Synonyms (1499 bytes) Rohirric (1617 bytes) Main_Page (1667 bytes) Valarin (2146 bytes) Khuzdul (2635 bytes) Avari (2686 bytes) The_Lord_of_the_Rings_movie_trilogy (2766 bytes) Behind_the_Gateway (3240 bytes) Westron (4359 bytes) House_of_Haleth (6060 bytes)

Compare with Sindarin (17045 bytes). Granted that some languages are much more extensively developed than others, there must be scope for adding lots more detail about some of the languages that have so much less content than Sindarin. Its article headings could be copied as a starter.
