Non-notable fictional character. Most of the references to Maglor are in passing, although he does appear to be a character in a Tolkien-based drama titled The Masque of the Silmarils, however this non-notable drama cannot provide notability for Maglor.

Delete Maglor is a minor character in The Silmarillion. ―Susmuffin ^Talk 11:53, 27 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The last discussion features appeals to name dropping in wide ranging articles on the Silmarils themselves. This does not constitute the indepth analasis of a subject we need to justify an article, especially an article on a fictional character.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:21, 27 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The Simarillion characters category is bigger than the Lord of the Rings characters category, although both have several redirects so the number of articles is harder to compare. It should clearly be the other way around since the Lord of the Rings has many more characters that meet resonable inclusion standards.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:41, 27 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, strangely, editors seem to have been interested in the most minor characters... I won't mention that cat woman...--Jack Upland (talk) 08:44, 29 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. A minor character in a minor work.--Jack Upland (talk) 08:44, 29 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
