I have no clue how to code, so I think it would be best if I didn't try to make an infobox. AmyTheStray (talk) 10:27, December 16, 2015 (UTC)

Oh, thanks :) honestly the Space Marine infobox could use a little work too. AmyTheStray (talk) 10:56, December 16, 2015 (UTC)

Oh, and maybe the text could be centred. It looks so awkward off to the side AmyTheStray (talk) 11:01, December 16, 2015 (UTC)

Remos, I'm confused. What is wrong with the Infobox on 'Black Suns Crusade' and how do I fix it? Did I use the wrong box again or what?

Kadjah Thoris (talk) 19:49, December 19, 2015 (UTC)

Remos, do you know why my infobox images are disappearing?Kadjah Thoris (talk) 17:39, December 21, 2015 (UTC)

Good call. It turns out the updated boxes want the word 'File' capitalized so an easy fix. Kadjah Thoris (talk) 17:02, December 23, 2015 (UTC)

Hey Remos, I was trying to Archive my talk page. Like a noob, I made a redundant page. Could you please delete the following: Talk:Algrim Whitefang/Archive2 (The one without the redirect)

Thanks! Algrim Whitefang (talk) 02:25, January 6, 2016 (PST)

Hello Remos! Thank you for your quick response to my newest and very first article, it is well apreciated.

And indeed! Most stories would do well with a proper introduction, but one cannot deny the effect of 'sudden entrance' when used correctly. It's a story device best left to the whim of writers. :D

Non-canon compliance:

Hey Remos I have removed any mention of the lost and traitor legions on the Mortarchs Serpentia, if I could please have the tag removed, I would be much obliged. Zeph gm (talk) 12:35, January 15, 2016 (UTC)

Hello Remos, its me, the pain in the ass. This is embarrassing but I believe in being (somewhat) consistent. I understand that my page Aston Hoelle is to be deleted, which is fine, I'm not sure how I can clean it up to  be a character I'd like. But I was told that my other characters are Canon friendly...umm, no they aren't. Sir Jacob of Raline for example completely screws up the Canon of House Cadmus, in that I start a war with House Devine, which was destroyed in the Canon. Furthermore, I have a Sacristan (Weasel) who is a smuggler on the side and a Sister of Battle (Celestina Neverone) who left the Adepta Sororitas without repercussions. This practically tramples the known Canon into the dust and pisses on whats left of it. I don't mean to be rude, in fact, if it is deemed that they should be deleted, I will be the one to pull the trigger. I just request some clarity, if you don't mind.Ragecreation (talk) 05:28, March 9, 2018 (UTC)

Yo Remos, saw your quality check on my Valkyura Warpschild page. Proofreading is required yeah ill get right on that. Whats up with the font thing? I dont ever remembing shifting any font aside from bolding and italicizing a couple things, what exactly is the issue and how do I change it because if I dont know how I did it I sure as hell wont know how to undo it.

Hey Remos, proofread and code free on Valkyura Warpschild, just letting you know so i can have that orange banner of doom removed. Zeph gm (talk) 06:09, February 23, 2016 (UTC)

Good question. What are the chances of anybody wanting to add non militant orders sororitas? I've invented a few but they're on sector pages.Kadjah Thoris (talk) 17:38, April 17, 2016 (UTC)

Remos, why did you delete my images of the Ashkelun and Nebroel gates? Kadjah Thoris (talk) 16:46, May 18, 2016 (UTC)

can you remind me once again which planets the Blackwater Rifles and Akoni 3rd Drop Infantry would have a part in the battles for? I see you've been working on the Crusade a bit more, need to edit my units involved accordingly.BrowncoatMando (talk) 05:01, June 12, 2016 (UTC)

they're part of the theater 3 correct? I can do the detail work regarding them, based on what you write, I just need to know where to look.BrowncoatMando (talk) 20:11, June 12, 2016 (UTC)

Good Evening Sir. I humbly request you to please if you may, restore the deleted Silver Knights fanon, im sorry that its been blanked, it was purely an accident and i was planning to restore it myself this time by undoing it somehow or asking for help, again, i was proofreading it and editing when internet connection in my place came to a bit off on the bad side and also i was stucked out because of a blackout. im sorry for all this trouble but i really wish if you may, to restore such article. thank you very much sir. SilveredKnight (talk) 11:00, June 21, 2016 (UTC)

Vermillion
had some thoughts regarding Vermillion(crusade for nightshores):

Vermillion is a gas giant named for the color it happens to be- 57 moons 22 of which are inhabited and taken together form the "Vermillion Star League" ruled over by the  "Pentarchy"- an oligarchy of 5 people chosen from the same families since the start of the League. due to the nature of their geography they are a massive naval and industrial power, the uninhabited moons provide a LOT of raw material for them to build with. due to their easy access to gas they field mostly plasma based weapons, including large cannons, easily capable of killing Imperial ships.BrowncoatMando (talk) 04:22, June 30, 2016 (UTC)

Figured the Star League was human, don't have all the details figured out just yet. BrowncoatMando (talk) 15:36, June 30, 2016 (UTC)

For the Star League- thinking the first 5 members of the Pentarchy were an alliance of human mercenaries and pirates who took over the system either pre-Imperium or when the Imperium lost control of the area  eventually just stayed in power, everyone they rule sort of forgot the Imperium and the Emperor and willing to fight to stay as they are. (need more details yet but that's what I've got so far)BrowncoatMando (talk) 05:00, July 2, 2016 (UTC)

while most of my ideas regarding Vermillion aren't going to work based on what you've written already, with your permission I would like to add a few of them to the page and edit mine accordingly, Vermillion- descended from pirates and renegades, planetary defenses are built around pre-heresy ships(the centerpiece is a heavy cruiser squadron) and the underground cities. I'll also clean up the rough edges(gramatically etc.) regarding that part of The Crusade BrowncoatMando (talk) 04:54, July 4, 2016 (UTC)

You have my permission to edit the units I gave you(the Crusade parts) if you feel the need to.BrowncoatMando (talk) 14:44, July 6, 2016 (UTC)

Hello there!

You maybe me as the idiot who tried to start a space marine chapter with no knowledge of them or you may not. Either way I was indeed the idiot who tried to start a space marine chapter with no knowledge of them. Since then I tried to re-create it and left my computer on sleep mode so that I didn't have to save and I could spend days on end without feeling pressure to upload a better page whilst also doing research. So I got about half way through it after 3 days and decided I'd done enough to save it and being the idiot I am accidentally closed it as I had like 12 other tabs open and lost all my work. Which is annoying as it actually sounded good and not stupid this time, to the point I feel the embarrasment of my last attempt, even more so than I did at the time. I'm going on holiday soon and plan to use that time to write up everything on paper before uploading it here all at once and I believe I can do it good! Hopefully... Anyways some questions I still had left unanswered because of course I hadn't saved it so there was no feedback. So these questions are as follows:

I decided to have my chapter based on Ceres as that is my favourite dwarf planet, lucky for me there was no chapter already based there. Problem there is no information I can find as to what is there and so the question becomes what is it like on Ceres in the WH40k universe and/or what information can I make up about it?

Another question was about The Beheading as I had a back story as to my chapter's founding surrounding that however again I can find little information on it. And I was wondering specifically about the time taken/response from The Dark Angels in restoring peace to Terra? As ordered by the leader of The Ultramarines at the time.

This idea was originally in my revival of my chapter, however I was wondering what laws surround having an Imperial Knight House as an alliance or perhaps even the creation of my own Imperial Knight House and basing it on Ceres also. Would this then potentially allow my chapter access to an Imperial Knight? Without trying to over-power my chapter of course. Kept their numbers lower on purpose to stop them from being over-powered and by the way they are different from last time completely so they are not over-powered at all this time. My logic is that the Imperial Knights love war and natrually not a lot of war will occur on Ceres given it is so close to Terra, so they may lend the use of Imperial Knights to my faction, similar to how the Blood Ravens have use of Lady Soleria in the new Dawn of War game.

Cheers,

I would like to apologize for breaking the rules and ignoring the warning I was given, I didn't read the image policiy before creating the page. I am sorry for that. I am also sorry for not reading the warning before continuing to edit the page. Sometimes things just slip my mind. It didn't occur to me that the message from you might be a warning. I kind of thought it was just a welcome to the wiki message. Once again I would like to apologize. From Wolf3000

When categorizing images, is there some sort of ssection for that? and under what categories would a tau sept symbol and an example of a Fire Warrior fall under? im dreadfully new to this and its all rather confusing Bureika (talk) 14:55, September 27, 2016 (UTC)

alright!! thank you so much, I had read through the how-tos and such and tried my best based off of what I could glean, but i was still very much lost. It's still a little bit of a headscratcher trying to navigate the controls of everything, but I will hopefully get used to it in time. thanks again!

Bureika (talk) 22:58, September 27, 2016 (UTC)

Hello Mr. Admin-Guy, sir..... Due to my small, but growing knowledge about the 40k universe, I need some assistance. Specifically, I may require information regarding the 8th Black Crusade since I am planning to replace the Tyranid Invasion of Narsine with a Campaign against the forces of chaos that caused the deaths of many of Laughing Skull Marines. Lexicanum has little about the 8th Black Crusade, so I would just like to know which planets were attacked and who attacked them. THNX!

Hello, its me the royal screw up. Hey, I just wanted to let you know I reuploaded the picture because I THINK I fixed the issue. Yes it is not mine, I do not take credit for it nor was I trying to. It is however on public domain and up for free use from what I see. I labeled the picture as such when I reuploaded it instead of the default saying it was mine. If there is still a problem, please message me back and kindly point out what I am missing so I may fix it. Thanks, and keep up the good work. Slava Imperio.Ragecreation (talk) 03:46, July 21, 2017 (UTC)

Blades of Dorn
Yeah I don't see why you'd need property templates when there are other templates like community or free use which do the same thing on the same page. I think some admin somewhere stressed that it was better to have both or something, maybe, which is needlessly beureaucratic imo. Whatever the case, it'd be good to change the enforcement to include these templates as property equivalents — NecrusIV   (Talk)  03:16, October 6, 2016 (UTC)

Proofread Thing
Seems to be randomly selected articles to try and promote editing. The program used may also pick up on fictional names as spelling mistakes. -- Khalael My Talk 19:57, October 17, 2016 (UTC)

Yup. Seems to just show the "Popular Pages". Welcome to the fun and interactive wikia interface. -- Khalael My Talk 18:48, October 18, 2016 (UTC)

You know of any other way to contact Things besides his talk page? looking for some input on The Xenocide. Figured I can be the foundation for him to build on(maybe he can take my ideas and write them in his style)but don't want to do it all- its his project. BrowncoatMando (talk) 06:18, November 3, 2016 (UTC)

Laughing Skull
Hello Mr. RemosPendragon, sir... I would just like to clarify and confirm whether or not it is allowed to make a fictional description of a canon planet (Chaeros in this case) if said planet has minimal information regarding it. I tried looking through the rules, but I couldn't find anything that answers this problem. Probably because I wasn't looking hard enough, but nonetheless, I need an admin's confirmation (even though I already started doing this, don't worry if you say it's not allowed, I'll get rid of the work).

Das2Eazy (talk) 21:53, November 3, 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for the response Mr.RemosPendragon sir! Judging by the fact that GW is still expanding on the WH40K universe, would it be safer to write about a fictional planet in the Agripinaa Sector rather than expand upon an existing one?

Well the Tremorisians Style is sorta similar to old Soviet Apperance. In that their gear is very simple, It would be Utilitarian and have a Mass Produced Look, with some individual customization, but wouldn't feature the same Ornamentation found on other factions gear, such as Space Marines.. Infantry wise, their gear would look be Syilized after Miners, for obvious reasons. Including a Headlamp on their helmet, and their armor would be simple, a mixture of Carapace Plates with Flak Underlay in the areas needing mobility (Lower Arms, Lower Legs, Joints). Their weapons are likewise very sturdy looking, again Favoring the Aestetics of old Kalasnikovs, but that is not neccissarily needed. Blackdamp (talk) 20:07, December 20, 2016 (UTC)

Oi Remos for future reference there's actually a template for articles that are both stubs and violate the quality control policy in other manners. It's just :P —  NecrusIV   (Talk)  12:12, December 22, 2016 (UTC)

That looks very nice. Tremorisians would usually be wearing their Gasmasks. But other than a few small details. It is great Blackdamp (talk) 19:54, December 22, 2016 (UTC)

The Splintmail looks nice. Hadn't considered soemthing like that. Their weapons could be Sturdier, and as for their Ranks, On the Helmet would work. The Tremorisian outfit is usually a Pair of Overalls and a heavy Jacket, with sturdy boots and Canvas Hat. Their Armor usually is something Similar to Carapace, I don't have a particular Design in mind. Their helmets are based on Miners Helmets and sometimes feature a Leather or Chainmail guard at the back to cover the neck. Blackdamp (talk) 21:26, December 22, 2016 (UTC)

I really liked the Mask on that last one. [possible could you add features of this Mask and Helmet to their design. I've always liked the look]

Forgot to Sign that last bit. Blackdamp (talk) 22:58, December 22, 2016 (UTC)

Got your message
hi! I'm Archangeloffrost and you flaged my new chapter, the Angels of Rebirth, as needing some improvement. I just read your message and I would be delighted to have some help from an administator. I'm pretty new to FANDOM and am not sure how to enact all the required fixes. I can fix the headings and provide some Art of my own but beyond that I'm pretty lost. I don't know how to clean up the HTML or how to get rid of the extra infobox, so I would love some help!

Chapter Fix
Hey, I saw your flag on my chapter and I'm pretty sure I fixed it if you want to take a look at it. I understood the problems (man those Space Wolves and Black Templars et to have all the fun), though I'm still not sure what the tiger claws have to do with it.

AAAGH! My Eyes!
Remos,

Whoa! Did a gamma bomb go off around here or what? Expecting the Hulk to pop in for a visit? Or is there an additional St. Patrick's Day holiday we're not aware of?

Not a big fan of the newer, greener wiki. Like the older style dark grey infoboxes with the white font. If anything, leave it how it was and perhaps make the font red so that it stands out more. Just a thought. Was this a decision by all the Admins to do this or some kind of practical joke? Are we being pranked..is that it? Just wondering..

Algrim Whitefang, WH40KFanon Wiki Humble Adept  (talk)  04:08, August 16, 2017 (UTC)

could i make a Chapter that was desended from Luna Wolves that were NOT in the HH because they accidentally traversed both time and space to found them selfs in a different imperium? *wink* yours truly Icestormshadow 21:18, August 16, 2017 (UTC)

RE: Wiki Appearance
There been a lot of grumbling around the wiki about these recent changes. Any chance that he could change it back? Or is one person allowed to pretty much do whatever he wants appearance-wise to the wiki without any kind of input or community consensus? Methinks, we should at least put it to a vote in the 'Site Announcements' forum. What do you Admins think? Sound like a plan?

Removal of a Deletion Template
Hello RemosPendragon, I am new to this wiki, and FANDOM in general, and one of my pages (Frostblood Warriors) has been given a Quality Control Policy Deletion Template for Broken Code and Grammatical Errors, and I was wondering if you would be able to remove it as I have fixed the code and ran the text through some grammar checkers and they seem fine. I apologise if this is the incorrect way to contact you, but I am quite inexperienced. Thank you in advance. --2ManyNids (talk) 19:38, August 26, 2017 (UTC)

Golden Lions
Hey Remos,

Saw your tag on my Golden Lions page and I'm not here to, as you put it rather well "lose my pants", just to ask how you recommend on changing it.

You've said my Chapter cannot have any Successor Chapters if it isn't Codex complient which I completely understand and go by myself but I just had no clue where else to put that information in the infobox, if somewhere at all haha.

In that segment I have written that the Golden Lions have two successors; Both these factions derived from 2 seperate Companies and I just assumed I should put them as Successors (One splitting off from the Chapter and thus spending till M42 on penance crusades by the Inquisition {Kinda like Lamenters, I think?} and the other splitting because... well... Chaos haha)
 * The Astra Infinitum Chapter
 * The Red Swords Chaos Warband

I am perfectly happy with removing the two or if there are any recommendations from yourself, they would be greatly appreciated!

Many thanks in advance, (Sorry for the long message)

Golden Lions... a month later
Wow, that month flew by! It's now, for me in the UK, October the 8th and a month since the Non-canon friendly tag went up on the Golden Lions page. I took away the successor Chapters section way back at the start and just wondering if that was the only reason why the tag was put up (because the tag is still there).

If there is another non-canon friednly part, please inform me because I cannot see it.

Removing a flag from my Article

Hello there!

I've basicly finished my page on Hephaestia aside from a few small lore updates I'll be adding over time. The apropriate ownership and boxes are there as are catagories (gonna fill a whole category with stuff!) and I was hoping I could get the big orange box removed.

My first article
Hello, Remos. Thanks for what you said. It is a relief to know that I may be a successful new wiki member. I have read up on the how-to guides but do you have any advice on what to do next? Perhaps a character or a planet would be good. Green47 (talk) 15:26, November 7, 2017 (UTC)

Additional query: I want to add proper artwork as instead of simple Bolter and Chainsword army painter images. However, the only method I'm really confident with is pencil drawings with added colour. Is this acceptable? Green47 (talk) 15:44, November 7, 2017 (UTC)

Er, I did not ask whether I could use official images! I did not ask if I could use other people's artwork! I asked if I could make my own original images, hence "the only method I'm really confident with is pencil drawings with added colour." This clearly means that I was asking what methods were allowed to make original images. Under the rules, any original artwork I produce would be an unofficial image. I know it is derivative, I know it has to be Fair Use instead of CC-BY-SA.

So may I ask again, more clearly, am I allowed to produce original pencil drawings?

If you want, I can send you a sample, but I would not be able to do so until the 13th.

Also, if I sound angry or rude, I apologize. It's just that getting an answer to a question I did not ask was very off-putting (especially as the word 'pencil' was not used once). I may indeed ask Algrim for help later on. Thank you for telling me about a possible collaborator. Green47 (talk) 08:01, November 8, 2017 (UTC)

PS: I've just checked and found that there are several pencil images on this site. I guess my question was redundant and I may have wasted your time. If I have, I'm sorry. If not, I guess I'll wait for your reply. Green47 (talk) 08:08, November 8, 2017 (UTC)

Sectors
Hello!

I was curious if it would be possible to add the 'Ixaniad Sector' tag to certain articles as part of an ongoing expansion of lore being started by several members of my gaming circle. Also would I be allowed to write an artical on the Ixaniad sector? I've spent a lot of time combing through wiki pages and Dark heresy campaign books and have established a rough timeline of the sector in M35 onward at least. Given that information on it is nonexistant on the warhammer wiki, I thought it might be helpful to people.

Happy thanksgiving!

Question about cannon
Hey Remos, I'm the Author of the Ashen Thanes and I've noticed that you edited some of my pages, and I appreciate that you did that, the TAgs always gave me difficulty. I also noticed that you flagged my Ashen Thanes as being non-cannon friendly because it's unknown when they were founded. I didn't know there was a rule about them having to have a definate founding, and part of their character is that they have lost most of their early history, so that they have to guess at their founding based on the earliest events they remember their chapter being involved in. If nessisary I can give them a definate founding, but I don't really want to if I don't have to.

So do I need an absolute founding or can I get away with an approximate? Glacis Highros, Captain of the 2nd company (talk) 16:10, November 27, 2017 (UTC)

Thanks :) and yeah, I though people could be a little confused, so I added my old username to my profile. It's good to be back again, I don't know why I was away for so long. BioChimes (talk) 11:51, November 28, 2017 (UTC)

Boring is probably for the best with 40k right now with everything that is happening. And yeah, 8th edition was a bit of a shock for me, though it was inevitable I suppose with what happened to WHFB. BioChimes (talk) 12:13, November 28, 2017 (UTC)

I can imagine. A cannon change as big as 8th edition would be a nightmare. I'm rather love/hate about it. I like the split Imperiam, but I really don't like how NCF a lot of it feel. The Primaris especially don't feel right at all. BioChimes (talk) 12:28, November 28, 2017 (UTC)

This may sound like a stupid question but I was wondering how does the stuff that Games Workshop puts out through its warhammer community page (like The Regimental Standard) sit in Canon as far as Policy is concerned? Scruffyphil1 (talk) 20:57, February 21, 2018 (UTC)

Saw your message
Hey Remos, it's me again (the Author of the Ashen Thanes), and I want to say thanks for helping with the catagories again. When it comes to the Ashen Thanes, I will say yeah, the Exalted Paladins need a later founding so I moved them to 8th founding. As for implying that Algund is actually elvish in disguise, what makes you think that? Did you look at my profile where I proclaim my love for LOTR or have you just read the Silmarilion. Either way it's only partly right. While I do borrow, and usually modify, names fro mthe Silmarilion, I do make up a lot myself, and I only ever used that sindar dictionary when I was making my Craftworld (I thought it appropriate).

In any case, I'm not entirly sure whether your calling me out for it, but thanks for the helpful criticisim anyway. When you get a chance can you check out my Chaos God Heims? He was flagged for being cannon infringement, but I think I've fixed him. Can you see if theres anything else I need to change? Glacis Highros, Captain of the 2nd company (talk) 16:37, November 28, 2017 (UTC)

Well in that case, I think it might just be best to leave Heims as a somewhat mysterious character in the Frost Wraiths warband page, since I don't know if I could write him to be farther from Nurgle. Could you delete the page?

Good on you for recognising elvish, always good to meet another LOTR fan Glacis Highros, Captain of the 2nd company (talk) 00:21, November 29, 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for the clarification, I was just a little confused as I couldn’t find any reverence to stuff like Regimental Standard in the canon policy, and so wasn’t sure if it was just me being an idiot.Scruffyphil1 (talk) 16:07, February 23, 2018 (UTC)

Regarding Cabeiria
I shall clear up the history, as it was written swiftly by myself and my friend. The forge moon is not the recruiting ground and is in fact simply a forge world outpost in orbit around the space marine's homeworld. Similar to how Titan has a forge moon orbiting around it (Phobos) to which they get all their wargear from, or the Ultramarines get their wargear from Konnor (which also has a forge moon orbiting around it; Gantz), or how Deliverance (raven guard) orbits a forge world (Kiavahr) and don't recruit from it but get all their stuff from the nearest orbital body. The moon is the producer and supplier of wargear to the Knights of Steel upon Zunus and nothing more. Can you elaborate what is non-canon about it? Vanidicus Alexander  ( talk ) 15:44, December 1, 2017 (UTC)

Hi, Remos. I've been filling out/fixing my Whisper Dragons, and I wan't your opinion on the cannon friendliness of an idea I had for their homeworld. My idea was, to fit with their techno barbarian background, that their homeworld was, during Old Night a lost Forgeworld that was ruined beyond recognition by civil war. During then and the great crusade forest covered the surface of the planet and all the mechanicum knowledge was lost with only small amounts of technology (mostly flamers) retained.

So, despite their homeworld one being a Forgeworld, it functionally no longer was. Do you think that works? BioChimes (talk) 10:30, December 4, 2017 (UTC)

ok, thanks :) BioChimes (talk) 19:40, December 4, 2017 (UTC)

Old Tag
Hey Remos, I was just going back the war article I wrote, Alliance War, and noticed a nearly month old tag about how the page was less than 3 paragraphs long. Well, for nearly as long as the tags been there, it's been longer than 3 paragraphs and the deadline on the tag is coming up and making me nervous. Could you remove it please?

Thanks man Glacis Highros, Captain of the 2nd company (talk) 14:14, December 5, 2017 (UTC)

RE: IG & Forge Worlds
Hey Remos,

To answer your question, the source is in the "Only War: Hammer of the Emperor" (RPG Supplement), pg. 38. I think there is some confusion though, as I know in newer canon, this refers mostly to Enginseers. Since this is obviously older canon, I'll go ahead and remove it, so as not to come into a canon-conflict as far as the information is concerned. Besides, the Mechanicus has Skitarii forces, therefore, they mostly likely don't need an IG regiment. Just disregard this older info.

Algrim Whitefang, WH40KFanon Wiki Humble Adept  (talk)  00:14, December 13, 2017 (UTC)

Hey, I just back a bit of a break over the Xmas peiod and saw that a number of my pages -- specifically Dark Epistolary Surkan, Gruag, and Rayas Kourtis -- have Quality Control stamps with regards to HTML code issues. I can't for the life of me figure out what these labels are referring to exactly, so I wander wandering if you could point out the exact issues so that I could fix them.

I also saw that my Tristitian page was deleted, but last time I lef that, the issues that were outlined by the Quality Control stamp had been taken care of (there was an issue with the Infobox which I fixed the day after the stamp went on). So I was wandering what happened there?

Thanks for your help, IllumiNini (talk) 12:50, December 26, 2017 (UTC)

I hope you can bear with me while I understand this correctly since the pages look fine to me on my PC and I'm not the most savvy when it comes to HTML and finding issues haha. So the HTML bits that I think you're trying to tell me about predominantly lie within the Infoboxes where I've put " " at without ending it with  " ", yeah?

I'm also unfamiliar with the  tag, so I do not know how to use it. Google time, I guess haha. Cheers,  Remos talk 23:01, December 26, 2017 (UTC)

Alright, So I've gone through all three articles with the Quality Stamps since they're obviously the most pressing. I've closed off all the HTML Tags I could find (most if not all of them were in the infoboxes) and got rid of the random nowiki tags I could find, so hopefully there are no more issues to do with that. I'll double check the rest of my articles as well as my Sandbox pages later today and over the rest of the week.

I am a little bit familiar with these tags, but will definitely have to familiarise myself more - especially if it's causing issues.

Please let me know if there are any more issues. Cheers, IllumiNini (talk) 23:26, December 26, 2017 (UTC)

Hi Remos I have looked over the tags placed on the wiki page i've been working on and i've fixed the problems that they we're put there for and I would like them removed, however if you do notice the problem is still there I will happily fix it, I wish to refine my articles and become an active member of this community, thanks!

How do I create a private draft article?
Hello, Remos.

Sorry for the problems caused. Currenctly I am writting a draft article for my Space Marine Chapter and I think I have accidently published the page to the wiki. I believe that I should unpublish my article and change it to a private draft for now as it is still a long way to go.

Hi Rem. Why are all the links red? BioChimes (talk) 00:50, January 23, 2018 (UTC)

It looks awful, and make the wiki look like the wiki is full of dead links. Also, maybe a blue would be better, because red is for fantasy isn't it? BioChimes (talk) 20:19, January 23, 2018 (UTC)

Thanks in advance!

Pudis420 (talk) 21:59, January 24, 2018 (UTC)

Can the warning be removed please? Hellos Remos. I was just wondering if you could remove the warning from my page. I have had help from 3 of the biggest contributors on this page who have helped me immensely in creating this peace. everything is proof read and polished, nothing brakes lore and it is Original with a capital O. Yet there is still a warning over my page. Its almost a month and have worked hard to make this page, at the least, passable to keep it up. If you'd kindly remove the warning from my page it would be much appreciated. If you cant could you at least direct me to an admin that can, thank you.

Break tags
Pardon me, I don't understand the quality control thing at the top. It says ' Reason: Homerules. Stray HTML tags, break is used as as it closes itself.'

Cannon question
Hey man, sorry to bother you but you're the only Admin who's ever messaged me and Algrim hasn't gotten back to me yet. I want to get your opinion on a character I've thought up on how cannon possible it might be before making him/her/it. The basic idea of the character is a Titan Princeps who through some electrical surge/tragic accident/etc, gets his/her mind stuck permenently in his/her Titan's mindscape while their normal body dies. They are still able to control their titan and communicate via speakers but are slowly becoming another Machine spirit within the God Machine and can only slow the process by shutting down between battles. My question is would the Adeptus Mechanicus accept that as while they fear AI, this would be human based and not even be a first (appartently a Imperial Knight was able to keep fighting after it's pilot was killed by using the past pilots memories) and given their extreme veneration of the 'God-Machines' they would be reluctant to destroy it.

I asked Algrim but he hasn't answered yet so what do you think? Glacis Highros, Captain of the 2nd company (talk) 03:53, March 5, 2018 (UTC)

Chapter Rework
Hallo mein Kommandant, if I may ask, what must I do prior to reworking my chapter 'The Laughing Skull'. Should I completely remove the chapter and reupload or should I just redo everything?

Get rid of Tag?
Hey Remos, I fixed the Order of the Silent Prayer to be more cannon friendly (now they have the more common hatred of psykers). Wondering if you could get rid of the tag. I know you told me that the admins read the articles before deleting them, but the tag still amkes me kinda nervous.

Thanks man! Glacis Highros, Captain of the 2nd company (talk) 03:35, March 12, 2018 (UTC)

Thanks Remos
Hey man, thanks for getting rid of the tag, and thanks even more for the advice. I've been going through all my articles, looking to improve/fix them and so any advice or critque you have is welcome. Now that you mention it, I guess a order wide vow of silence wouldn't be too unusual, it's pretty hard to make a unique Sister of Battle order since they don't have any gene-seed or any other genetic engineering to tweek. I'll see if I can fix the article and make them a bit more interesting.

Hey, following up with my request for the undeletion of the Angels of Rebirth chapter so I can fix it, can you delete my Captain Snow character.

Question About Images
Hey Remos,

I saw that you removed the images from the Morana Black Guard article. I was looking over the Warhammer 40k fanon:Image Policy, and from what I can tell, it didn't look like Achilles violated any policies. It specifically states no Ponies, Pornography, No Official GW Artwork and must possess the appropriate licensing and categories. From what I could see, he had them all tagged as Fair Use, which showed that they were copyrighted images.

If we're gonna nitpick, I can point out several instances of other Imperial Guard articles that are not only violating this policy, but don't even have the appropriate licensing or categories. In fact, several of these pages are using official artwork. Case in point:


 * 1st Bespin Brigadiers - Has official artwork from the movie 'Aliens', using the character Private Hudson. Also using a Star Wars AT-AT as the regiments transport vehicle.
 * 42nd Valen Rangers - Image is official GW artwork.
 * 57th Cortorac Shock Infantry - Official image from a video game. No appropriate licensing.
 * 63rd Ozue Airborne Regiment - Image doesn't have appropriate licensing.
 * 91st Ozue Mechanized Infantry Regiment - Missing appropriate licensing on all images, missing categories on images.
 * Apocrypha Guard - Missing appropriate licensing on all images as well as categories.
 * Crusher's Own - Under notable personnel section, the Major character is official GW artwork.
 * Hell's Belles -Under notable personnel, images of both Angelina Jolie from Tomb Raider and Katee Sackhoff from Battlestar Galactica being used with no appropriate licensing and missing categories. The image for the Lieutenant is official GW artwork (missing licensing and categories). Using official artwork from Tomb Raider game for another character (missing licensing and categories).
 * Legio Nemones (aka Legion of the Forgotten) - Using official artwork from G.I. Joe (Cobra Commander) for Regimental appearance. Missing appropriate licensing and categories.

These are only a few that I found at a glance. So I was wondering, why were the images removed from the Morana Black Guard article? Granted, they were taken from Killzone 2 and Fallout, but using images from other franchises or games is nothing new on this wiki, and all the images were appropriately tagged with the correct licensing (Fair Use) and with the appropriate categories, yet they were deleted. What is the standard exactly? I'm confused. Perhaps your could shed some light for me?

Thank you for your time. I look forward to your response.

Algrim Whitefang, WH40KFanon Wiki Humble Adept  (talk)  22:00, March 31, 2018 (UTC)

Images
Hey Remos,

Why are you deleting my new images from my article? The new images aren't from any game or other trademarked franchise. They were random images I found online from various tumblr accounts, pinterest and Art Station. They were NOT from Fallout, Killzone or any other intellectual property of any other franchise. I had Algrim add them for me after he tagged them and added categories for them. Not sure why they necessitated being deleted yet again. Especially when none of them were from any proprietary rights as far as I could tell, and fell under Fair Use rules in accordance to wikia's rules. Now if he made the mistake of tagging them wrong, I can understand. But the other images of the troopers, I made them myself and had Algrim add the backgrounds.

Not sure why this necessitated him being banned for a month for adding them. Was it because he uploaded them using the same file name from the files that were deleted earlier? Or should he have made new, unique file names, so as not to overwrite what was deleted? I'm confused.

Achilles Prime, Humble Adept  (talk)  07:25, April 2, 2018 (UTC)

RE: Images
Remos,

Understood, but once again..if we're gonna split hairs, wouldn't the vast majority of images being used on this wiki (besides the hand-drawn pics and Bolter and Chainsword painter images) are in some shape or form, altered pics of other peoples' artwork? I mean, if you'd like, I'd be more than happy to go over every single article and point out images being used from GW, Forge World, Star Wars, ect. And let's not get into the issue of people using historical paintings, pictures of actual combat vehicles and even celebrity images for various characters. Which in my opinion, is outright lazy, but I suppose doesn't violate any rules as far as I can tell.

Not sure why all of the sudden we're being so hardcore about what images are being posted, when the standards have been pretty lax (in regards to images) for several years. I'm not trying to start drama about this, but come on.. Seems like we're being a bit overzealous, when before this wasn't even an issue. I don't know... Well, I guess do what you have to do then. What do I know? I'm just a nub.

Achilles Prime, Humble Adept  (talk)  07:46, April 2, 2018 (UTC)

Weapons Images
So, can I at least have my weapon images re-constituted then? Looking over the Category: Weapons page, and from what I can see, darn near every single weapon on there is some other artists' work. Or are all of these images going to be deleted as well, since..you know.. they don't belong to the individuals who uploaded them? Just curious.

Regarding The Feral Sons and The Imperial Legion
Yo, I saw the message you put on my talk page about the Feral Sons Marine and The Imperial Legionnaire and I wanted to ask something.

Am I allowed to add images of them back on their respective pages if I go ahead and make my own or are Algrim's bases also a no-no now? Thanks in advance!

Pudis420 (talk) 20:39, April 2, 2018 (UTC)

Images
I can appreciate deleting copyrighted images and all that, I don't know which are which as I get my reference images from the internet and as such don't know which ones are GW sometimes, so if I had any on my page I apologize. But some of the images you deleted are pieces of art I had comissioned and pictures from reference art sites or just random pictures of planets.

Could I put up the image of Hephaestia again and the picture of Alphaeus Gearhardt? They aren't copyrighted GW images.

Quality Policy
Hello RemosPendragon, I am here, because I´ve got an important question concerning the Quality Policy. I am an Admin of the Alien Fanon Wiki and just adopted it and try to bring it into a good shape, because it is very unorganized and has years of chaos behind it. At the moment I am trying to create a working Rules System and also had the idea of a kind of Quality Policy. Then I saw your Quality Policy and liked it very much. My question is if I am allowed to use passages from your Policy for my Wiki. I would really appreciate it however, if you not allowing it I can totally understand that too. I would be happy if we could discuss this topic. Sincerly --InquisitorZylon (talk) 15:52, April 6, 2018 (UTC)

Thank you very much for your advises and tipps. I appreciate it! I will try not to copy so much from your Quality Policy and try to create rules that can´t be interpreteted. I really appreciate your tipps and will try to respect it. If something is unclear to me concerning managing a Wiki I hope it is possible to ask you for help. Thank you very much.

Image Policy – An Outsider's Perspective
Since a battle about your Image Policy has spilled over onto our Wiki, I thought I'd investigate. Seeing good points on both sides, I offer our Image Policy as a model if you want to copy any of it to make yours more clear (on a nullum crimen sine lege scripta principle). We also have a textual tutorial and a visual tutorial to help our users understand exactly what's required of them, in which you might invest if you have time.

Leave me a message on my Message Wall if you want to discuss other ideas; enforcement of Star Wars Fanon's Image Policy is kind of my pet project.

Abyss Gazers
Hey Remos I've been working on fixing my Abyss Gazers and I fixed most of what the tags were citing me for. I changed the librarium so that they lacked any psychic librarians until they got reinforced with Primaris Marines who have unaltered gene-seed who's gene-seed can be used to make Librarians so I changed the chapter so they never used sanctioned psykers. The only thing left is Beor who I can't change alot or get rid of with out alot of problems with other articles, so I wanted to ask if its ok to keep him as part of the chapter if I can come up with a resonable explanation for him?
