DF-SL-01.5: Agreed.
DF-SL-02.1: Agreed.
DF-SL-02.2: If we take your editing we jump backward and forward, as we tell in the Beregond addition about the fleeing orcs, than we jump back to the death of Fréaláf and Brytta becaming King, telling of his worth as ruler and than agian about the fight against the Orcs.
DF-SL-02.3: Here we jump now geographically back and forward first Gondor with Beregond fighting the Orcs, than Brytta, next again Gondor with the death of the Lord of Dol Amroth and next back to Rohan. I would therefore exchange
DF-SL-02.2 and
DF-SL-02.3.
DF-SL-02.6: Folca must have been a great hunter before his father died, so I don't think 'after him' is a good edit here.
So what about this editing:

... and of that or any other precious metal they had little or none.
DF-SL-02.2<LotR, Appendix A It was in the days of Beregond that the War of the Dwarves and Orcs was fought in the Misty Mountains (2793-9), of which only rumor came south, until the Orcs fleeing from Nanduhirion attempted to cross Rohan and establish themselves in the White Mountains. There was fighting for many years in the dales before that danger was ended.> DF-SL-02.2b<based on HoMe 12; HoE; The House of Dol Amroth /The fivteenth Lord of Dol Amroth was/ {‘}slain in {battle‘ the first has ‘Battle}/one of the first battles/ with the Orcs{‘}.
>DF-SL-02.4b<LotR, Appendix A II {He}Brytta, Son of Fréaláf, King of Rohan was called by his people Léofa, for he was loved by all; he was openhanded and a help to all the needy. In his time there was war with Orcs that, driven from the North, sought refuges in the White Mountains. When he died it was thought that they had all been hunted out; but it was not so.> DF-SL-02.5<LotR, Appendix A II Walda {He}his son was king only nine years. He was slain with all his companions when they were trapped by Orcs, as they rode by mountain-paths from Dunharrow.> DF-SL-02.6<LotR, Appendix A II {He}Folca, Walda’s son was a great hunter, but he vowed to chase no wild beast while there was an Orc left in Rohan. When the last orc-hold was found and destroyed, he went to hunt the great boar of Everholt in the Firien Wood. He slew the boar but died of the tusk-wounds that it gave him.
