The standards page entry for tense -Wikipedia:WikiProject Middle-earth/Standards#Tenses - refers to consensus in the discussion atPortal talk:Middle-earth, which no longer exists. Where is the discussion recorded?-- Verbarson  ^talk_edits20:56, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Long gone, I think. The project follows standard Wikipedia tenses for book articles, i.e. present tense for current action, and past tense only when past events are mentioned in the current action.Chiswick Chap (talk)21:25, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
