I've always taken the stance that the point of this wiki and roleplays in general are to have fun, and that alone, this isn't a book club or a place to preserve the purity of Tolkien's work. There are certainly places for that but not here. We use Middle Earth because it is a fun univerce and it has established lore for us to build on rather than starting from scratch. That being said I do in fact draw a line, an OP faction/character, not fun, space aliens in middle earth, not fun, the remnants of a forgotten race taken hold of an abandoned fortress in the north, fun. As long as it provides for fun RPs I see no reason to remove it, reasonable expansion is fun because it keeps away from the same old thing, as long as it's not space aliens or bird people there should be a decent amount of wiggle room when it comes to lore.
