Parental advisory from the Silmaril web site:

"This database contains a small number of obscenities, vulgarities, swear words, and nicknames for portions of the human anatomy. These are integral to valid entries, just as they would be in a dictionary. If you do not wish your child to be exposed to these, please block this page from them."
