I believe I may be of service of the wizards. And dark elves. First of all thank you very much for you kind words. Now the wizards were known as the Istari, they were Maiar. They were sent by the Valar to Middle Earth in the Third Age. There is much that is not clear about them. But there were five.. Saruman the White who had been a Maia of Aule, Gandalf the Grey/ later white who was a Maia of Manwe, Radagast the Brown who was a Maia of Yavanna, and the two blue wizards Alatar and Pallando Maiar of Orome. Not much is known of these two because they wandered off into the east and were never heard from again. whether they were killed or switched sides, or anything else is unknown. Saruman of course was killed, Radagast turned away from his cause and was forsaken, Alatar and Pallando never heard from again. So basically the only one who kept to their mission and returned to the Valar when it was over was Gandalf. This might also explain why he was brought back after the balrog fight. Manwe sent him back because he had not finished his mission yet.
And as for Dark Elves. Elves that were twisted into orcs, and I could be incorrect but I believe only Morgoth could do this, were just orcs. They have nothing to do with Dark Elves nor were they referred to as dark elves because they ceased to be elves. The term "Dark Elf" is used in two instances in Tolkien's work. First to the Moriquendi, elves who never saw the Trees of Valinor. This applies to three races of Elves, the Avari, the unwilling ( they became the orcs but were not classified as dark elves for that), The Sindar (The Elves of Doriath), and the Nandor who became for the most part the elves of Lothlorien and Mirkwood (excluding a few elves like Galadrial). Of course they aren't called dark elves really nor are they thought of them. The only real dark elf was Eol, who just went creepy on everyone.
Edit: FIRST PAGE BREAK CELEBRATION!!! *throws confettii* razz
