I agree upon your proposed addition for FG-T-23.

But I don't agree on the footnote thing for the tall Turgon. I think we have to be spares as possible with footnotes. I know that I have just given that advise myself for the Horns of Yilmir, but that is a different case. In the case of the poem we would use the note to show an additional beautiful text, here we would rather use it to correct an at least misleading passage in the main text. What makes this eve worth is that the text to be corrected by a footnote is an editorial addition by our self! In the end I lean more too Aiwendils solution to cut the sentence out, if we cannot find a satisfying solution.

Respectfully
