:Usage explanation: Well, I often use the alternate/true names, which exist as redirects, to link to the articles. One reason is that you don't have to type the whole "X (Middle-earth)": Like the Khazâd example above, or "Quendi" for "Elves (Middle-earth)". Its just faster and more elegant. And they ''are'' valid redirects, as opposed to misspelled ones. ~ [[User:Tolkiendil|Tolkiendil]] 15:37, 12 November 2008 (EST)
