News link
The "News" link on the main page goes to a page with the most recent news article being from March 2008. Maybe we should just can this and point that link to the news forum on the lotro forums? --Gaerlin 02:56, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
Just created the new patch page: Patch Notes - Vol III Book 2, maybe good idea to update this in news-section. --Tiberivs 08:54, 9 September 2010 (EDT)
- Added official patch-notes, for next upcoming patch: Patch Notes - Vol III Book 2 Patch 1 --Tiberivs 04:32, 2 November 2010 (EDT)
Skirmishes
Do you think skirmishes merit a separate box on the main page? This system seems to be quite broad (encounters, soldiers, rewards, deeds, etc. etc.) and have quite a profound influence on the game. If not a separate box, where should we put this in? Orions 12:22, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
- With Instance Join now (Skirmishes + Classic instances) this should very well now be a separate box on the main page. --Marble 01:05, 10 November 2010 (EST)
The Summer Festival Returns
Starting 29th June and ending 26th July, the Summer Festival returns to Middle-earth!
There's a lot going on this Summer Festival. All your usual favourites are back, including the Taste of Hobbiton at The Hill and Keg Racing by Frerin's Court. The Ale Association and Inn League are both back looking to recruit new members.
You can find the Summer Festival celebrations taking place in the following areas of Middle-earth;
Duillond β Ered Luin
The Party Tree β Shire
The Festival Grounds β Bree-land
Thorin's Hall Bar - Thorin's Hall
Have fun!
Suggestions/Feedback
Would like to suggest that the Projects link under "Contributor's Corner" point to Projects instead of to the category page. Thanks! Sethladan 18:54, 5 October 2010 (EDT)

Someone with permission to edit the main page needs to fix the Quests link. It currently points to http://www.lotro-wiki.com/index.php/Quests when it should (maybe) point to http://www.lotro-wiki.com/index.php/Category:Quests, and as such generates an error page when you attempt to traverse the link if you are not logged in with an account on the Wiki (N.B.: It's been like that for months). If you ARE logged in, it goes to another page that isn't the Category:Quests page. Don't understand the strange behaviour. TIA! Eldurgae 20101207 16:02 (PST).
- Hi Eld - thanks for catching this! I fiddled with Quests a little bit and it should display correctly now for nonregistered users as well. It's a quick fix that warrants some further investigation, but at least the page actually works, heh. I also think Quests is the best target for this link since it's designed (I think?) to be kind of a launching off point for all information related to quests. Categories are probably best kept out of sight and used for organizational purposes. P.S. Welcome aboard! :) Sethladan 00:03, 8 December 2010 (EST)
why are the servers down
today the server has been down for almost 4 hours it was working earlier this morning now the main page on the website or the game wont work it says cannot connect to the data center why are they down and when will it be back up? just wondering if you know about it please post something on here thanks. And i am only a player not a creator. Jan. 30,2011 Sunday
- Seems like everything Turbine-related is down; you can check out their Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LOTRO) or Twitter (http://twitter.com/LOTRO) for updates. They're having a problem with their datacenter - it could be related to all the bad weather we've had in the Northeast US recently. As of an hour ago they were still working on the issue - hope this helps and that you're able to get on and playing again soon! Sethladan 17:53, 30 January 2011 (EST)
- P.S. LOTRO-Wiki s not affiliated with Turbine; we're all just fans and players like you. :)
Updates
- I created a page for the new update notes: Patch Notes - Update 3 Lost Legends of Eriador. It'd be great if someone could link them. The front page is admin-locked though.
- There's no event on now. The Anniversary event shouldn't be linked from current events. :) --Torang 14:28, 23 May 2011 (EDT)
- Done :) Amphoras 15:10, 23 May 2011 (EDT)
Hide the "Main Page" title - Do you love or hate it?
Let me know what you think! --Lotroadmin (talk) 02:26, 19 October 2011 (EDT)
- Erm, I didn't even notice it was missing... *blushes*. I think it looks fine, but I don't have a strong opinion. --Ravanel (talk) 03:48, 19 October 2011 (EDT)
- Uuhhmm, kind of echo Ravanel in full /blush ... is there a compare somewhere? -- Zimoon (talk) 12:50, 19 October 2011 (EDT)
- I only knew it was gone because I saw the change on Common.css, heh. Sethladan 15:51, 19 October 2011 (EDT)
- with adblock on, it provides a cleaner look, so guessing everyone is okay with the change ;) --Lotroadmin (talk) 20:20, 19 October 2011 (EDT)

I like it when I saw it, although I totally missed the question here ;) --EoD (talk) 21:13, 25 October 2011 (EDT)

round corners

- There are no skins on Wikipedia that have rounded boxes on the main page! You are welcome to customize your skin any way you want. RingTailCat (talk) 09:42, 23 March 2012 (EDT)
- Sorry, I did not make myself clear. Its not a 'skin', its as simple template you put in front of the padding style that takes advantage off CSS3. It has no effect on incompatibale browsers and would enhance the look of your front page greatly while only taking 30 seconds for you to implement. SChalice (talk) 10:11, 23 March 2012 (EDT)
- Wow that looks pretty cool! Feel free to copy the Main Page to a sub page Main Page/Main Page CSS3 Example and build it out so the administrators can test and review. --Lotroadmin (talk) 13:08, 23 March 2012 (EDT)ing th
- Trust me, copying the main page without admin access isn't easy. I think I am missing a </> somewhere. You could just put in the templates in the right spot to avoid my error(s). Done. - SChalice (talk) 13:40, 23 March 2012 (EDT)
