Deletion
Here we go again. We just got through deleting gnomes in the plural because they were non-canon, and now I think the same needs to be done with the singular. Gnomes are not mentioned anywhere in the books or any of the film adaptations, and the closest you could get would be saying that Earthmen are gnome-like, but that's still a stretch.

 * Gnomes are actually used as synonyms to Earthmen by Lewis. this article uses a narnian name and is filled with non-canonical info. the article should have its info deleted and it should redirect to Earthmen. Arvan Swordwielder 21:37, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I was under the impression that Earthmen were referred to as gnomes only until they children and Puddleglum learned what they were actually called. So it would be that they were not called gnomes because Earthmen and gnomes are the same, but because those from whose perspective the story was being told hadn;t learned what they were called yet.  Still, a redirect to Earthmen or a deletion would both solve the problem, I think. Rain Thalo 20:25, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

Height

 * According to this article, gnomes could be up to seven feet tall. Is there really evidence of that? I don't remember reading about any tall gnomes. Wolfdog: Narnia Wiki administrator 15:56, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Some Earthmen were. As a matter of fact, the article used to redirect to Earthmen, I don't know why it doesn't any more. Rain Thalo 21:43, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
