Concerning Galadriel and Celeborn

[ArcusCalion]

1) That is a very good point, and I myself agree to the change.

2) There is no general rule (so far) for italicizing words. But you are right that in this case they probably should be. All the italicization is taken directly from the source texts atm, but we should probably discuss a standard. Your idea is good, I think, that in the context of linguistic discussion the Elvish should be italicized.

3) The reason the Elessar is placed there, is that the alternative tale is said to take place 'ere Sauron deceived the smiths of Eregion' which would mean that it can't take place at the end of the chapter.

4) I actually like this, for me it flows a bit better and makes more sense. However, the text you've taken is from a footnote, which we don't always pull into the body of the text. I think the text reads well enough as it is, but perhaps Findegil could weigh in.
