This change as discussed is not going to be. Orc is to be retained.
Yes. I noticed, though, that in what I think is supposed to be the most up to date text in the private forum, 'Orc' is consistently changed to 'Ork'. It'll have to be changed back. (Or - it's quite possible that I've been looking at the wrong text. I was looking at "Antoine's Fall of Gondolin Formatted". Which one is the most up to date anyway?)

Doriad:

This one was ruled out. There is no change of Doriath>Doriad in Wanderings or anywhere. There are changes Gwareth>Gwared and Echoriath>Echoriad, which at one point led me (at least) to suspect some general final change th>d in Sindarin. But "Doriath" appears in the same text as "Echoriad", so we must be dealing with isolated word changes instead of a systematic change.

Thoron Siiir (triple i for circumflex):

I think this one is good, but we might have a vote.

We had already voted on this: Way of Escape
Right.

Is Gar Ainion going to be removed or not?
I think so. It could still be valid, but it's a bit dubious.

Gwarestrin:

I think we'll probably keep this. The other option would be *Gwaraectrin.

Tarnin Austa:

I'd prefer to keep it, but there's been no consensus yet.
