Welcome
Hi, welcome to Warhammer 40k! Thanks for your edit to the Space Wolves 13th Company page.

Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- Montonius (Talk) 02:19, February 10, 2011

Pictures
Fantastic work on the Angels of Absolution, Algrim, just fantastic. You're our new go-to guy for the custom Colour Schemes. If you find any other Space Marine Chapter pages with discrepancies in the custom pictures, please feel free to create the correct scheme, your work is of the highest quality and is a welcome addition to the wiki. Thanks. Montonius 07:26, February 20, 2011 (UTC)

Great pics you have put up.

Exorcists
Thanks Algrim. By the way, I really just wanted to say that after a rough start you've become a real top-notch contributor whose work I look forward to seeing, and that's saying something considering how few solid editors we actually have. You're our go-to guy for Space Marines, so feel free to continue your replacement of our custom Space Marine Colour Schemes, your work is superior. Thanks again. Montonius 09:15, February 28, 2011 (UTC)

Great Idea
Great idea Algrim! Let's fix all the First Founding Chapters and the Chaos Space Marine Legions. Tell me which ones you want me to unlock first. Montonius 05:44, March 3, 2011 (UTC)

Great job on the Blood Ravens. Which First Founding Legions do you want to hit next? We're half way there! Montonius 11:51, March 12, 2011 (UTC)

My Thanks
Let me just take a moment to thank you and congratulate you, Algrim, on the hard work you put into completing our First Founding Project. You have done a stellar job and should take a moment to bask in the satisfaction of what you have accomplished. It will take me several weeks to rewrite all the First Founding Chapters now that you have finished the overhaul but your work was just stellar. You have proven yourself to be the only other editor on this wiki who I can trust to get a job done. Kudos, just kudos to you for all you accomplished over the last few weeks. I know that with your continued assistance we can make the Warhammer 40k Wiki the single greatest source of Warhammer 40k lore on the Internet and the site of choice for all Warhammer fans everywhere here on good, old, Holy Terra.

Now, with that said, if you don't mind, don't rest on your laurels, because I have plenty more for you to do!

Deathwatch
Not to distract you from the Vraks project, but could you do a quick custom Chapter colour scheme for the Deathwatch? I did one months ago but the badge is wrong and also, i've got the colours on the wrong sides lol, the Imperial Fist badge and the silver Deathwatch arm should be reversed. You don't need to fix the text, just that one picture, if you get the chance. It's unlocked for you. Thanks. Montonius 05:28, March 27, 2011 (UTC)

Magnificent, just freaking magnificent on the Deathwatch page! Best custom job you've done yet. Thanks. Montonius 21:39, March 28, 2011 (UTC)

Storm Wardens
The Storm Wardens need your custom touch as well after the Astral Claws and Red Corsairs and when you retouch the Revilers and Praetors of Orpheus. Unlocked the Storm Wardens for you, but don't alter the text, I recently rewrote it. Thanks. Montonius 22:41, March 31, 2011 (UTC)

LOL. Ooops, my bad! Sorry, didn't realise what I asked you to do was locked. Duh! Opened! Montonius 00:46, April 1, 2011 (UTC)

Let me just say that with your Storm Wardens custom scheme you just outdid yourself. Magnificent! Simply freaking magnificent! (They are a personal favorite Chapter of mine) Montonius 04:47, April 1, 2011 (UTC)

Blood Gorgons
Algrim, thank you for your aid and dedication in systematically tackling large areas of the wiki as no other contributor ever does or is likely to ever do. Your efforts are invaluable to us. As always, thanks. Montonius 03:28, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Chaos Fleets
Algrim, Chaos Fleet needs your sources and page numbers, please. Great work, by the way, you've really filled out some crucial parts of the wiki. Montonius 07:23, July 17, 2011 (UTC)

Bio-Titans
Algrim, I have a very special request. I was wondering if you could work your magic on the Tyranid Bio-Titan page. I have not been able to secure access to the original sources concerning the Bio-Titans and the page is poorly written and poorly explained. Even worse, there are no pictures to explain the different types of Bio-Titans listed. If you could make any enhancements to the page, I'd be very grateful. Thanks, as always, Montonius 15:17, July 18, 2011 (UTC)

P.S. Great job with the Bio-Titans and Hierophants. And welcome your brother aboard for me!

Unification Wars Congrats
You did an amazing job with this page! I was truly dreading gathering that information from all the novels. Brilliant, just brilliant! Kudos to you. Montonius 08:09, July 28, 2011 (UTC)

Some Thoughts
First, thank you for the compliments. They are always welcome. LOL. Lets go over your points one by one.

1. Grey Knights. Boom its open. Work your magic. Don't worry too much about it, I'll simply revise it from your foundation as always, and I eventually plan to rebuild the page using the new Codex anyway.

2. Siege of Vraks. I absolutely understand your hesitance as you can see I also just ran out of time on the page. Yup, it sure will be the biggest campaign page ever, but it was the most complicated campaign that Forge World ever designed. Don't be too detailed. The way I did it was I read a chapter from the Siege of Vraks Volume 1 and then summarised it instead of laying out every single detail. But, yeah, I'd love to see you do it because we are already so superior in quality on the subjects we've tackled this one will really stand out.

3. Xenos. In general, my suggesstion would be to leave the main xenos pages alone. I have a system worked out which I began to institute with the Dark Eldar page by which we will do for each major race what we have already done for the Space Marines. The problem is, it takes a really freaking long time to do it all right. It took us almost a full year just to get the Space Marines to where they are now and they are still not complete. I figure it will take us about 2 more years to fill out every faction to its proper extent. That's why I suggest first we work on the historical campaigns like the Siege of Vraks and save the xenos for later. However, if you still want to do the xenos, I will give you the guidelines for what I need for each race. Tell me which race you want to do and I will give you a detailed summary of what needs to be added, what pages need to be built from scratch, and where the information can be found and you can go from there.

My preference is for you to do Vraks simply because it needs to be done and your work on the Unification Wars was exactly what we needed in this area. Vraks is very similar to that work, just on a much larger scale than you've done before. So tell me what you want to do and if its the xenos, tell me which race and I'll give you the list of what I need. As always, you rock. Thanks. Montonius 05:22, July 29, 2011 (UTC)

Eisenstein
Algrim, love ya for that picture of the Eisenstein; I looked forever for one to put there and gave up!Montonius 07:45, August 20, 2011 (UTC)

Welcome Back
Welcome back, Zach, we missed you and we've grown quite a bit in your absence. The page is unlocked, didn't even know it was lockedor I would have opened it long ago.Montonius 01:49, September 21, 2011 (UTC)

Squats page open. Montonius 01:55, September 23, 2011 (UTC)

Eldar
Hi Zach, thanks for completing the Eldar page. Thanks again, you're doing fantastic work. Montonius 03:57, September 28, 2011 (UTC)

Necrons
Hey Zach, your Necron Lord page is perhaps the best you've ever done. Truly great work. Thanks. Montonius 01:34, September 29, 2011 (UTC)

I THINK I LOVE YOU
Alright brother, just wanna commend you on what a quality job your doing with this Wiki. Im pretty new to the whoke WH40k scene Ive just finished reading Fulgrim and the 4 before that in the Heresy series and Im genuinely Hooked line & sinker. Ive been studying the Wiki all day and Im pretty up to speed with everythin, I think. Theres so much to cover. I have no real desire to play the board game at any point, but the novels, wow, I genuinly aim to read them all, not just the Heresy series haha, infact Ive just ordered the Space Wolf Omnibous V1. Thats all anyways, just wanted to say Keep up the Good Work and fuckin ignore that SpaceMarine asshole blowing off about copyright infringement, like your pal said to him, your actually increasing the fan base of WH40K with this site so in effect doing them a favour, I cant see them suing or anything like that, you just might wanna be careful with copy & paste's etc.

Mark.

Sabbat Worlds Crusade
When you are done with all you want to accomplish for the Titan Legions, and as far as I know all that remains is to add separate pages for each type of Imperial/Chaos Titan, I have a page that could definitely benefit from your time and research. Our Sabbat Worlds Crusade page is completely bare and we need to start laying down some information there. After your absolutely herculean effort with the Titans, I though you might like to start on that project. Its another multi-pager that will take some time to research and prepare, but I'd like to see some progress there as it is the largest non-Space Marine Imperial campaign we have not yet even touched.

On another note, absolutely fantastic job with the Titans. Could not have been done to that level of quality without you. And as a reward for your efforts, I just wanted you to know that we now get over 100,000 page views globally on a daily basis and more than 30,000 individual users, up from less than 1,000 when I took over the wiki only 18 months ago. And that growth is in no small part because of the work you have accomplished here since February. Congratulations on a job well done, and we all look forward to your future contributions, Zach. Montonius 05:57, October 22, 2011 (UTC)

P.S. I wanted to bring your attention to another wiki I founded and operate, the Warhammer Wiki for Warhammer Fantasy. If you ever get tired of Warhammer 40k, as I sometimes do, the fantasy world is also a fun place to hang out and prepare pages for. This wiki is about 18 months old but I have had little time to work on it because of my duties here. Take a look, because with that wiki, we could easily make it the number one wiki on the net for Warhammer Fantasy, since WF does not have a real competitor wiki right now. Montonius 06:15, October 22, 2011 (UTC)

Fall of Prospero
Wonderful work! You have truly mastered the art of researching an extremely difficult subject with the attention to detail required that makes us the best Warhammer 40k wiki out there. When you have finished up the remaining tasks I outlined above, I will have more need of such skill for several new projects. Again, simply outstanding work and an immense contribution to this wiki's success. Montonius 14:26, December 7, 2011 (UTC)

im just here to say hi to! but ill just ask u u like dogs soo much?? just asking! :)

Robots
Wonderful work on the Robots and Legio Cybernetica pages. I think the Robots page in particular represents some of your best work to date, Zach.

Kudos
I just wanted you to know that in the last 5 days you have personally added 36 new pages to this wiki. I believe that is a new personal record for you. That represents an extraordinary committment and dedication above and beyond the call of duty which I just wanted to recognise. Your committment to the wiki has been exemplary and, I thought you should know that we now average over 60,000 separate people viewing the wiki every day from across the globe. This growth has been in no small measure the result of your hard work. Keep it up! Montonius 10:22, January 21, 2012 (UTC)

Space Wolves Order of battle
Hey, I upgraded your Space Wolves with their full order of battle. If you could add a few more pictures of Space Wolves vehicles from Imperial Aemour 11 (if there are any others) to to finish it off, that would be great. Oh, on a side note, our Tyrannic War veterans page needs a Wargear section, if you could find it in the Deathwatch books. Thanks. Montonius (talk) 06:44, January 10, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks
Hey, I just wanted to say thanks for your help. It worked out really well with Shas, and I think that's because of your help; you've really been an invaluable aid since you became an Admin, and I just wanted to express my appreciation for the great job you're doing at every level. Thanks again; I couldn't run this place without you. Now let's get back to content creation, whoo hoo! Montonius (talk) 00:46, January 28, 2013 (UTC)

Planet List
Whew! Nice clean up of the Planet List! Now can you do the same (removing all the old footnote data and the Main Article: xxxx links and replacing them with the in-text links to the Space Marine Chapters so that each entry begins with the link in the paragraph text) from the Space Marine Chapter list, Mr. Clean? LOL Montonius (talk) 05:40, January 31, 2013 (UTC)

Oh, Shas'o came up with the idea for creating a template to indicate those pages like the necrons that will undergo a major revision in the future. Here's the code he used, but I thought when you get a chance you could just adapt your Inquisition label which you use for pages under construction with this text:

"Please note: This page is slated for a major upgrade in the future. Information at present may not be up to date or may be of low quality. "

Here is Shas'o's code, if you find it helpful:

{subst:iumb


 * bg = #EEE8AA


 * image = Whatever Picture


 * caption = Outdated Content


 * message = Parts of this article have been identified as no longer being up to date.


 * comment = Please update the article to reflect recent events, and remove this template when finished.

}

Please leave any complete sign code on my talk page and I will apply it to all the necessary pages. Thanks again, Mr. Maintenance!

Mordians
Very nice page with the Mordian Iron Guard! Best IG regiment page yet. Montonius (talk) 03:51, February 11, 2013 (UTC)

Spinward Front Map
Zach, can you do me a favour and take the Spinward Front Map from the Ony War Core Book and make it a one page map that you upload here so I can use it on the Spinward Front page I'm building? If it's possible,  make it as large as possible while still fitting on one page. I have need of your graphic manipulation skillz! Thanks! Montonius (talk) 17:41, February 14, 2013 (UTC)

Wow! Freaking awesome! Thanks so much! I'm making copies for myself, LOL. You did a better job than FFG! They ain't got them on their site yet! You should offer yours! LOL. Montonius (talk) 18:37, February 14, 2013 (UTC)

Imperial Guard List
Dude, you're a freaking nut! That's a hell of a page! Good job! Please look at my corrections so that the same errors don't get repeated over and over again since you are using a formula for the entries for certain linked regiments. Montonius (talk) 05:43, February 17, 2013 (UTC)

Siege of Vraks
Ugh, Zach, are you crazy enough to do the entire Siege of Vraks? If so, I would suggest that you finish all the Imperial Guard regiments before changing topics. I would also have your head examined. You're crazy, man! Montonius (talk) 23:13, February 24, 2013 (UTC)

Ork Boyz
Hey Zach, when you get a chance, not that I want to pull you off Vraks and the IG redlinks, but that Ork Boyz page needs a list of all the different types of Ork Boyz with a short description of each one, which we will eventually create a page for each, if they don't already exist (DON'T do that now! Orks for the future, just the list! LOL). Montonius (talk) 02:55, March 9, 2013 (UTC)

Rogue Trader
I just wanted to say very, very nice Rogue Trader page! It will be a wonderful counterpoint to my Koronus Expanse page this weekend. Thanks! Montonius (talk) 05:13, March 14, 2013 (UTC)

Necron Upgrade
Hey Zach, with all this activity on the Necrons should I just give in and redo their portal page with the full conversion this week instead of doing the Kornus Expanse? It will take significantly longer, and it means the Expanse will be delayed by at least another week. Which do you think would be smart? Once I start the Necrons it's a huge project, requiring alterations to at least 10 pages and the creation of several new ones, and I will of course, need your help in the last stages. or should I just do the Koronus Expanse as planned. What's your opinion?Montonius (talk) 20:04, March 19, 2013 (UTC)

Rogue Traders it is! Boy, we just keep disappointing those Necron fanboys! Montonius (talk) 20:11, March 19, 2013 (UTC)

Koronus Expanse
Zach you asked if you could help with this -- I have a few pages I need help with, when you are done with the Chaos Gods update, if that is OK. Montonius (talk) 04:58, March 26, 2013 (UTC)

OK, you could start with Port Wander. A lot of information is already available on the Koronus Expanse page that you can just copy over, but I need the material drawn from the other supplements added to the new page, as well. Thanks.Montonius (talk) 05:25, March 26, 2013 (UTC)

Oh, here's a schedule for what I'll be working on. Over next weekend I'll finish the Koronus Expanse by adding the History section to that page and the timeline to the main overall Timeline pages. Then, the week after, I will be doing pages on the Realm of Chaos and the Screaming Vortex. When those are done, I will begin the Necron overhaul, which will remain my focus until it is done. When that work is complete, I'll open it up for all improvements by you to the Necrons. So if you could hold up from work in those areas until I'm done, that'd be great. All of that will take me 4-6 weeks to complete, very likely, probably a little more because the Necrons are so vast. Montonius (talk) 05:40, March 26, 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for Port Wander, very nice page. You're so quick, I'll have more for you soon, LOL. Montonius (talk) 08:37, March 26, 2013 (UTC)

OK, we need Rak'Gol, Disciples of Thule, Stryxis and Yu'vath pages whenever you're done with Nurgle, though don't do them all at once, as its too much for me to edit, unless they are tiny, which they won't be. LOL. The hardest one I think is the Yu'vath, whose story is spread across multiple books including some adventures. The Lexicanum has a good sources page for them, though of course you're a far better researcher. Thanks, you're really helpful and I love your Rubycon II page, which I didn't even know had to be done. Thanks. Montonius (talk) 04:20, March 27, 2013 (UTC)

Vortex Complete
Whew that was a bitch! Well, all the RPG regions have been completed. When you finish with the Yu'vath and the Imperial Navy ships, feel free to start filling out the Vortex pages! You seem like you need a good Chaos rampage. What fun! Blood for the Blood God! I'm gonna take som time off, LOL. Montonius (talk) 18:45, April 5, 2013 (UTC)

Hello,

First I will introduce myself. My name is Juanjo, and I am a rookie of Warhammer and I write from Spain. Forgive translation errors.

I found this great website on google, because I was looking to print images of Genestealers. It's really interesting how much information, images and other resources that are available on the website, and immediately, I have become a member, because I think it is great.

On the other hand, as I commented, I was looking for some pictures of Genestealers to print. I really liked a picture of Genestealer called "Strain Vectori Genestealer" I've found in this website and that it was published by you in the following article: http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Genestealers

If not bother, I wonder where else appears, as I have searched but have not found it anywhere. I wanted to get a higher resolution image, because the image of the article does not have sufficient resolution to be printed or used as wallpaper.

In any case, thank you very much for your attention and best regards.

Spaceships
I was planning on doing the spaceships last after all of my ground vehicles were done, and because I love spaceships I made lists of ever single ship I could find. I added to the Battleship, Cruiser, Escort, and Attack Craft pages all that I saw were missing. Most of these are from the Lex, and I added the source that is listed on their pages, but some of them I found in other places, if you need help I could probably locate them again for you.

Vforvendetta1 (talk) 22:42, April 6, 2013 (UTC)

You're welcome man, and to be honest I was kinda hoping that you were actually just doing all of the Starships, that way they'd actually stand a chance of getting down some time this year.

Vforvendetta1 (talk) 22:56, April 6, 2013 (UTC)

I understand, and now you'll relize just how much fun it is to do these vehicle pages, I just keep finding more!

Vforvendetta1 (talk) 23:01, April 6, 2013 (UTC)

Good Day
Good day.

This message is here as I have come to ask you a favor. On a forum site that I use, The Colorless (http://thecolorless.net/?offset=), there is a moderator, DarkChaplain, who has ben not entirely fair to some users. He has been rude and mean. I also hear he prides himself on his knowledge of all things Warhammer. Would you be willing to help, in order to put this traitor in his place? Also, if you helped, you would go down in the sites history. You would be feared and respected by all.

I hope to see you soon.

Markov Algeroth (talk) 01:50, April 9, 2013 (UTC)Markov Algeroth

I need your skills.
Thank you sir, I try my hardest. I have found two new Space Marine Chapter/Warbands for you: the Black Crusaders from IA2 on the Grot Bomm pages, and the Exquisite Host warband in IA Apoc II, on the Sonic Dreadnought page. Sorry for the extra work.

Vforvendetta1 (talk) 01:30, April 10, 2013 (UTC)

Activity
Hi Zach, my business has reached a critical phase and I am not going to be as active in the coming weeks for a while. Please do your best to pick up some of the slack by checking up on other users' articles; I will be less able to do that now.

Also, there are the Belis Corona Sector and Yu'vath pages to be done. If you don't want to do them; just tell me, I don't care and it doesn't bug me if you don't feel like doing them, I just need to know who should do them. The Belis Corona page is just gonna be a cut and paste for completeness sake with a few words changed, but the Yu'vath page is extremely important because they are the plot line that holds together all of the different RPG regions. I'd prefer you did it because you have such a command of the multiple resources necessary to do the page; but if not, I will do it next when I get a chance before I do the Realm of Chaos page I have planned. Just let me know. Thanks! Montonius (talk) 20:56, April 16, 2013 (UTC)

Lament of the Damned
Hi Algim again. I'm not sure if this is correct, but I think when your adding unit formation information, you simply add it under a "Notable Formations" header on the main page that the formation is comprised of e.g. You can see pages such as the Monolith and Piranha, which have the formations from the apocalypse books simply added as sections rather than as separate pages. However, its best you ask Monty about this as I ain't the authority.

Necron Overlord Layout
(that said, I did like your tweak on the Black Legion page related to the Cadians) --MercWithMouth TalkPage 23:40, April 18, 2013 (UTC)
 * Hey man. What's up with reverting the image layout of the Necron Overlord page? The 'NecronVsUltramarine' picture had the advantages of being clearer to see, colored, and portraying action in motion. On this basis, it does very much seem qualified to be the lead-image over the previous black-and-white one.


 * Ah, hey. that does actually clear it up quite a bit. Thanks! MercWithMouth TalkPage 00:03, April 19, 2013 (UTC)

Techno Barbarians
I have noticed how there are no Images related to them, and tryied to find some myself, and stumbled upon this

http://www.tumblr.com/tagged/john%20blanche

And this

http://www.tumblr.com/tagged/john%20blanche

As I belive there are quire a few useful images there, especially in the second link. The thing is, i am not sure to which articles these images can be added. If you have the time please point out where they could be appropriately placed, and if you are as unsure as i am, then i will add a gallery to the Unification Wars article and place them all there. Thanks.

Marshall Silverman of The Black Templars (talk) 18:23, April 19, 2013 (UTC)

Why I prefer Black and Whites
Zach, you stated on another user's page you did not know why I do not like the colourised pictures. While I believe I did explain this in the past, it may not have been to you. By definition, canon pictures that have been colourised by a fan are non-canon. If the same images could be found in a codex or other published source with colours, they would be used. As to why I started each Necron page with a black-and-white, that is because that is the formal image used in the Codices. Codex images have weight in canon above anything else, so they go first on a page when they exist. For consistency's sake, and consistency is the most important thing on a wiki, we use them on every unit page of a unit that exists in the codex. That is the reasoning behind my decisions. I know you don't care about that and prefer the colourised versions, but I just wanted you to know the reason. There is a logic to it, even though I know you find it too strict. Just wanted you to understand. Thanks! Montonius (talk) 21:17, April 19, 2013 (UTC)

Fall of Medusa V
I had an idea that I think you might want to consider as well. --MercWithMouth TalkPage 00:34, April 21, 2013 (UTC)

Fury Interceptor
Montonius has asked me to do a page for the Fury Interceptor, and while I have enough information to complete it I was wondering if you know where this picture is from - - as I cannot find it in any of the Battlefleet Gothic sources. Do you know if its from one of the FFG books, it looks like their art syle. Thanks.

Thanks! I had just found that art gallery and was looking at all of the other pictures. What I really needed was the name of the FFG book it was from and you delivered wonderfully sir. Thanks again!

Overseeing Other People's Edits
Hey Zach, on the Horus page, those revisions were not helpful. They altered text for no reason and changed the formatting of the page to a system we do not use on the wiki. Please, when you see that, just roll it back. By editing it, you made it much harder for me to correct the page. We don't let editors edit for personal taste, the reason is this will simply lead to an endless series of edits on pages already complete by people seeking their own perfect version but with no actual improvement in information content. I have no desire to go over every page ad infinitum, and I'm pretty sure you don't either. On completed pages, editors should only edit for grammatical mistakes, an addition of truly new information or factual errors, nothing else. Anything beyond that is a taste edit and should be removed. You can check out the Horus page for those edits I deemed actually helpful, and what I did not, to help guide your own decisions. Thanks. Montonius (talk) 19:39, April 21, 2013 (UTC)

It's not a problem at all and I certainly was not angry or annoyed. Sorry if it came across that way. It just should have been rolled back because otherwise I have to hit "undo" "undo" over and over again and its a pain. Montonius (talk) 21:01, April 22, 2013 (UTC)

Problem
Please check my talk page for the response of MercWithMouth and my response on his own Talk page. This threatening tone presents a problem; I am soliciting your suggestions on whether any further sanctions should be taken or what course of action you believe is best considering the implied threat in this tone, which is very similar to a situation we faced a few months ago. Please also weigh in on this matter to him after reading my response. Montonius (talk) 00:03, April 23, 2013 (UTC)

Steel Rain users
That should include the Black Templars, since the Chapter uses the maneuver often, and as one of their primary tactics, shouldn`t they be included? Since i still do not consider myself versed enought in adding significant content, please feel free to add them. Thanks.

Macragge Sword Hall
Is there anything in the sources we can say about what the Sword hall on Macragge is so we don't have a blank entry for it on the Macragge page? Montonius (talk) 20:04, April 24, 2013 (UTC)

Oh, Zach, a reminder, please add the source for all new pctures to the Sources section, like on the Steel Rain page. Montonius (talk) 20:39, April 24, 2013 (UTC)

Ion and Demiurg
Algim, would you happen to know the source for Ion technology for the Tau being obtained from the Demiurg? I remember seeing it somewhere but can't find the source for the life of me :3

&#61;Shas&#39;o&#39;Kais&#61; Mobility, Technology, Firepower - In the name of the Greater Good; we will triumph. (talk) 02:01, April 25, 2013 (UTC)

Its strange, because it has to be in a source featuring the Demiurg, and the only realy source for them (that I know of) is the BFG rules; which mention nothing about them being connected to Ion tech except for their cutting lasers using some form of ion mechanism. Even Lexicanum has a note saying the fact needs citation on their page. I'm starting to think its one of those Warhammer 40k myths that simply arose out of nowhere nad nobody thought to question it. Then again, I thought this about a few other obscure facts which turned out to be hidden away in weird places.

Btw, you might want to browse around this resource. It contains a few interesting bits of fluff if you look for them.

I took a pokie around the warseer forums and it seems they're discussing the same thing. One guy said it was in the BFG magazine issue 19. Do you happen to have a copy of that?

If you have the time sir (this isn't urgent), could you please look in the three (should be in one of the three) White Dwarfs directly after the Planetstrike release White Dwarf; and post up any Planetstrike strategems you find? I'm quite sure I remember seeing an additional list of race-specific Planetstrike strategems in one of them. This is just because I want to get the more obscure Tau and Necron technologies done before I forget about them. Thanks in advance.

Zach, can you do a page for the Fidelitas Lex, the Word Bearers flagship lost during the Shadow Crusade at Nuceria? Thanks. Montonius (talk) 19:52, April 26, 2013 (UTC)

Picture
Good sir, could you kindly tell me what the source for this is?

Vforvendetta1 (talk) 04:12, April 30, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks! I love Neil Robert's artwork, but unless you know for sure otherwise, I believe that the massive thing in the sky over Terra isn't the Phalanx, it looks to me to be one of Terra's orbital platforms. These were described in some of the Horus Heresy novels, I know they were in Prospero Burns, but I cannot find the page.

Timeline
I'm sorry, Zach, I remembered that email, but it was deleted from my outlook folder a long time ago. What were you thinking about in terms of timelines? They are one of my Warhammer40k specialties. LOL.

Also, just so you know, thanks for the massive addition to the M31 timeline, but we use a different format for timeline entries in the Chronology than on the main pages. You can see the difference in the later millennia of the timelines, like the ones I did for the RPG pages and added to the timeline. It's not a problem, I'll move the M31 entries to the proper format as soon as I get a chance, but I just wanted you to know so that if you add more, the entries use the correct formatting. Thanks.Montonius (talk) 03:18, May 1, 2013 (UTC)

Hammers of Dorn Chapter
All the images associated with them have already been added by yourself to the Wikia. Some have apparently not been used because a source cannot be found. All of said images are featured in `The Art of Clint Langley (Black Library) 2008, which i have, meaning they can all be properly sourced. Because all of those images you have added are of decent quality and resolution, there is no need to add the same or new ones, under a different name. For that reason if you have the time feel free to reinstate all the Hammers of Dorn Images to the Wikia where you see fit, and i will take the liberty of adding the sources. Thanks.

Marshall Silverman of The Black Templars (talk) 19:12, May 6, 2013 (UTC)

Hello there, iv only just joined and have added a couple of pics (with permission) hope they look ok on the pages, and hopefully i'll be able to make more contributions to this awesome site

Argel Tal
Hey Zach, would it be possible for you to update this page with the material from the novel Betrayer? A user brought it to my attention that this part of the character's story was miissing. Since you did the original page I was wondering if you could do the update? Thanks. Montonius (talk) 01:44, May 9, 2013 (UTC)

Anathame
Hello, this is about the anathame. The page in question says that the anathame is a Chaos weapon aligned to Nurgle. I was just wondering what specific source could be cited for this since "Horus Rising" says that the Interex and the Kinebrach were specifically fighting against Chaos. So it is a little confusing. Thank you 68.84.247.213 20:02, May 13, 2013 (UTC)

Necron Dynasty Configuration Image
Hey Zach, can you use your graphical magic when you get a chance to give me a bigger and clearer image of the makeup of a Necron dynasty on page 13 of the Necron 5th Edition Codex? I have begun the Necron upgrade, and I need a bigger and clearer version of that image of the Saurekh Dynasty to add to the upcoming Necron Dynasty section on the Necrons portal page when I continue work next week. Thanks, and obviously, we have crappy sopurce material so anything you can do that is better than the current page would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Montonius (talk) 12:56, May 17, 2013 (UTC)

Color of Russes hair
since you are a space wolf fan and lore nut( like me) i have been wonder what is the color of Leman Russes hair?

i only say this because there are 2 sources, 1 is prospero burns, the other is everywhere else. Because in PB it is said by the main character that his hair is the color of "blood stained blond" and thats what it looks like on the main image on his page. BUT his stylized potrait sees him with red hair, and Ahriman says the same thing in A thousand sons, and on several minitures of Russ. So what is the color of his hair?

Imperial Guard Medic
Nice to see you back in action, Lord Wolf. Can you do the Imperial Guard Medic next as a complement to the Field Chirugeon? Thanks. Montonius (talk) 21:39, June 4, 2013 (UTC)

IG Specialists
Hey Zach, you're probably already doing this, but could you add ALL the functional Imperial Guard roles from both the Only War Core book and Hammer of the Emperor now that you've started the project? We could use them all. Montonius (talk) 18:31, June 10, 2013 (UTC)

Squigs
Zach, I have deleted the Buzzer Squig page, so please do not remove its information from the Squig page. Place all Squig information solely on the Squigs page and make it as detailed as you like for each variant of Squig. We don't need individual pages for each type of Squig beyond the Squiggoth, there are far too many. Also leave the gallery in place, and if you want, add the pictures of all the different types of Squigs to it. Thanks. Montonius (talk) 20:27, June 12, 2013 (UTC)

Eldar 6th edition codex
As an Administrator to the Wiki, that means you have virtually unmatched sources and information regarding Warhammer. So you most like already have said codex, which for some reason GW made a 2000 copy limited ed version. God bless TPB!

http://thepiratebay.sx/torrent/8561437/Warhammer_40000_-_Codex_Eldar__2013_%5BPdf_Eng%5D

On a side note, i think image is better, and much clearer, too much zoom on the previous

That is all. Thanks.

Terra being moved
Hi Algrim, I just need a source for something. I've heard around the place and remember seeing somewhere that Terra was moved from the edge of the galaxy to where it is now closer to the centre during the Dark Age of Technology. Do you happen to know what the source for this is?

&#61;Shas&#39;o&#39;Kais&#61; Mobility, Technology, Firepower - In the name of the Greater Good; we will triumph. (talk) 11:27, June 14, 2013 (UTC)

Now that I've started poking around, I can't find any references to it anywhere. Must've been some crackpot speculation I saw a long time ago. It seems weird though, as Earth in real-life is near the edge of the galaxy, yet Terra is close to the centre. Nevermind though, thanks anyway.

Siege of Vraks
Hey Zach, somebody complained that the Sieg of Vraks was never finished! Ha! Check it out on the article's Talk Page! Maybe you should complete it when you are done with all the Imperial Guard specialists. Montonius (talk) 03:30, June 20, 2013 (UTC)

Zach, I saw your message on the Siege of Vraks page. I understand your anger; but you need to understand this: this site is  NOT a community. This is me, you, Shas'o'Kais and a few others like Vforvendetta, and Krannski who do all the work and follow the rules. Nobody else does, either because they are too lazy or too incapable to follow our example. Just like pirate sites, a few people do all the work and everyone else follows along to enjoy what they can. There's no reason to get angry; this is just the way it is and is a result of a structure that demands quality from contributors rather than the usual wiki contributions. Without us, this place will be dead in less than a month. Without you, we've already lost 25,000 readers who were addicted just to your regular contributions alone! Don't take it as an insult, take it as a compliment that so many people liked our work. After all, we are volunteers; nobody makes us do this, just our own perfectionist desires. As I told you long ago, without you, this place is but a shadow of itself. I will keep the lights on and running for the foreseeable future, but nothing will ever be finished or completed without the work of the regular contributors. Thanks for all you do! Montonius (talk) 23:24, June 21, 2013 (UTC)

Salamanders
What was the official source for the contention that the Salamanders have slower reflexes than other Astartes in the Gene-Seed section of the Salamanders' page? It has been challenged as incorrect on the Talk Page. Montonius (talk) 13:10, July 8, 2013 (UTC)

Hi Algrim, just a quick question. Which one of the sources on the Imperial Navy page

http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Imperial_Navy#Torpedoes

states that torpedoes are 200 metres long on crusiers and 300 metres long on battleships?

Hey Zach, thanks for your upgrades to the Scout Armour page. Can you place the page numbers for the Insignium Astartes art you sued on the page on its entry in the Sources sectiom, please? Thanks. Montonius (talk) 13:51, July 20, 2013 (UTC)

Warhammer 40k Wiki Ranked 52nd
I just thought you might like to know that this wiki was recently ranked 52nd amongst all other Wikis on all of wikia in the number of readers and in quality! There are well over 10,000 wikis in existence on wikia! This is an extraordinary achievement, and is due in no small part to the work you put in over the years. We are now ranked among the likes of the WOWwiki, the Star Wars wiki, the Harry Potter wiki, the Mass Effect wiki, and the like, all considered the best and most popular wikis in the world.

Dark Mechanicus Category
Zach, remember, don't create an all-inclusive category unless you want to spend the time adding all the pages required to fill it out. I am doing this for the Dark Mechanicus, which sia huge category because of the Traitor Titan Legions. Montonius (talk) 21:23, August 15, 2013 (UTC)

Horus Heresy Specialist
Hey Zach, since you have more limited time, beyond doing whatever you felt like, I was hoping to just make you the Horus Heresy material specialist. As that stuff comes out on a more irregular schedule, I'd like you to take point on putting up the pages related to the new material, or altering the existing material, like with the novel Vulkan Lives and the Horus Heresy Volume Two Betrayal background book coming from Imperial Armour. You can, of course, do whatever else you feel like you have time for, but your Horus Heresy stuff was always the best, so I'd definitely want you to do that material if you have little time for anything else. Thanks!Montonius (talk) 23:18, August 18, 2013 (UTC)

LOL, Zach, its not an order, just a request. You do whatever you like, and I personally much prefer you to do small chunks than to do the massive info dumps of the past, because my own time is now more limited than before, just like yours. But when you do have the time, I'd like you to use it on the Horus Heresy, because you always did the best work there, and it's the stuff people are most interested in. When you left us, our daily numbers dropped by 25,000! Thanks. Montonius (talk) 00:14, August 20, 2013 (UTC)

P.S. Can you prepare pages for the other two Chosen of Abaddon and a Chosen of Abaddon page itself? Thanks. Montonius (talk) 01:01, August 20, 2013 (UTC)

My Email
Hey Zach, did you get my email? Montonius (talk) 02:33, August 31, 2013 (UTC)

Hey I just received something else today; I'll email you about it. Montonius (talk) 03:24, September 1, 2013 (UTC)

Cool, thanks for everything. Oh, Zach, don't get carried away, one or two pages of length a day is more than enough; let's not go back to the bad old days of huge data dumps; I don't have that kind of time anymore. Nice and easy wins the race. Thanks!Montonius (talk) 04:51, September 1, 2013 (UTC)

Limit
Zach, that's it for the rest of the day (and that means nothing more until the morning or afternoon of September 4th, please). I do not want us reverting back to the bad old days. You're adding too much material at one time. The Salamanders Drop Site Massacre material was more than enough for one day. Please keep it to one major long addition per day; I simply cannot revert to the amount of material we added daily in the past, particularly now that Shas'o puts up daily content as well. Please keep this in mind. Thanks.Montonius (talk) 22:58, September 3, 2013 (UTC)

Codex
Sure it'll be up today. How's your huge set of files coming? Montonius (talk) 21:11, September 4, 2013 (UTC)

Old Necron Vehicles
The current Necron Wargear page has a list of older vehicles like the Abattoir, Tomb Guardian and Obelisk (an older version different from the current one wealready have a page for) that come from 3rd Edition. I think we need seperate pages for them as Shas'o is going to redo the Necrons Wargear page up to the new standard which will get rid of all the vehciles, but I can't do pages for them because I have no idea what the sources are for them, some of which is old White Dwarfs. Can you help me source them? Montonius (talk) 04:29, September 6, 2013 (UTC)

Warbike
Wonderful job on the Warbike page Zach; it came out fantastic. However, it was a waste of our time to do it; and pulled you off your other material, as it did me. When you see a page like that, just delete it and admonish the editor (as you did, very nice). In this case, it may teach the user how much he has to learn, which is great, but it was really just a waste of time. Additionally, all the Ork vehicles will be done by VforVendetta in the near future, so us doing it takes away from his enjoyment. He personally requested that he be allowed to finish the Ork and Eldar vehicles when he has more time, so I'd like to leave those areas open for a little while longer. If he doesn't return in a few months, after I finish the Necrons and Dark Eldar, we'll do the Orks ourselves. Also, I'd like to wait on the Orks til we get the 6th Edition Codex at the end of the year or early next year, so it's a waste of time to do their units right now. Thanks. Montonius (talk) 04:24, September 8, 2013 (UTC)

LOL, Zach you do whatever you want; it's always fantastic. You can update any page's sources you feel are lacking; I just want you to stay focused on the Horus Heresy material for now because we need to start moving forward on multiple fronts at once. While I do general maintenance, Shas'o will do all the units and vehicles for Tau and probably Dark Eldar and Tyranids. I intend to finish the Necrons fluff and then finish the Dark Eldar which is only half done. I would like to see all the factions Codex information on units, charcaters, vehicles and weapons filled out before the end of 2014, because I may become far less active here at the end of that year. I also look forward to the Imperial Armour Horus Heresy Book 2, and all of your additions when we get the Space Marines Codex next month. Also, look at the Black Legion supplement; it contains info on every Black Crusade! My God, it never ends! Montonius (talk) 04:41, September 8, 2013 (UTC)

Pictures
Hey Zach, don't replace pictures of superior quality with inferior ones even if they are newer from the 6th Edition; just put the inferior one in a gallery on the page. Montonius (talk) 05:09, September 9, 2013 (UTC)

Zach, please keep it a little more reduced. We have a huge amount of material coming in, please spread it out over weeks, not days. Thanks.Montonius (talk) 02:40, September 10, 2013 (UTC)

Chapter Colours
Zach, please do not start replacing the Chapter colour schemes with the 6th Edition ones yet. There is a very specific way the upgrade has to be done, and first off, do not remove images from the page, move the older ones down to the gallery. Let me start them, then you can follow the pattern in the days to come. Also, that's enough work for today. Thanks. Montonius (talk) 21:27, September 10, 2013 (UTC)

Iron Snakes Gallery
In the gallery on the iron Snakes page, please change the caption of the picture current labelled "Iron Snakes Tactical Marine" to whatever the correct caption is in the 6th Edition Codex, if there is one. Thanks. Montonius (talk) 05:48, September 13, 2013 (UTC)

British English
Just so you know, American English is actually not an acceptable substitute on the Warhammer 40k Wiki; LOL, we want everything done in British English. If you find it in American English, change it. The only exception, as the rules state, is the use of quote marks; we use the American double quotation marks istead of the British singles simply because it makes everything easier to read. You Yankee chauvinist! LOL. Montonius (talk) 02:36, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

Codex page numbers
Zach you need to indicate that the copy of the 6th Edition Space Marine Codex you are using is the Digital Edition, as otherwise the page numbers will look ridiculous. Use this citation : Codex: Space Marines (6th Edition) (Digital Edition), then the page numbers. Montonius (talk) 02:57, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

Also, today was a bit much in terms of content, but I know you are going through each First Founding Chapter's Successors. When you are done with this upgrade, please reduce the content uploads a bit for each day. Thanks.

Also, business has called me away for the next several weeks. I may not be editing at regular intervals during this time. Please try and pick up the slack on deleting unnecessary articles and all the other routine daily maintenance tasks that the wiki requires. Thanks very much. Montonius (talk) 04:00, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

edits
Hiho, I hope I did not mess that much with your article on that Night Lords First Captain.

I f you want me to, I can do something like that, adding more links and so on, to all articles that you do, thus maybe minimizing your workload a bit. (I think I have somewhat of a grasp of the articles on this wiki and their contents and basiccally all I have been doing thus far is inserting more and mroe links into articles or adding the "delete article template").

Have a nice day

Neithan02 (talk) 21:53, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

Limit
OK, Zach, that's it. I asked you to please not put up all this material in a few days. I said please, do it across several weeks. I can't edit this much material, anymore. Please help me out. Montonius (talk) 03:33, September 16, 2013 (UTC)

This difficulty can be easily fixed: please only do 1 set of additions per day, either one in the morning or one now in the evening; don't do both as you usually do. If you do just one set of additions in a given 24-hour period on a reasonable number of topics or one big new page addition, I can edit that material. The key here is to keep my involvement down to about 30mins to 1 hour per day. That's a reasonable amount of material for me to deal with. I know that part of this is because you got the new Codex, and want to update all the existing pages' art and data, but there's going to be a lot of new material coming out over the coming months, and there will be other editors putting up a lot of material, including Shas'o this week. Please, buddy, help me out, or I will have to think about simply passing off the Administratorship all together, which would really not be the best outcome at this time in the growth of the wiki. However, that is now a possibility, where before it was not, as I cannot put this much daily time into a non-paid position. Thanks. Montonius (talk) 04:37, September 16, 2013 (UTC)

Black Legion Successors and the Solar Hawks
Say, Zach can you create pages for the two remaining Black Legion successor warbands and the Solar Hawks when you get a chance? I know these are tiny pages without much info, but we need them for completeness' sake. Thanks. Montonius (talk) 04:38, September 17, 2013 (UTC)

Sounds wonderful. Also, I did not want you to think I was castigating you too much; your work is absolutely wonderful and is really bringing the Space Marines back up to where they need to be. Space Marines, for better or worse, drive most of the traffic to this site. Montonius (talk) 04:45, September 17, 2013 (UTC)

Oh, also, as the master of the Rogue Trader 1st Edition of the game, can you create two other pages, on the Vampire and the Psychneuein (or however its spelled)? They are old-school Warp monsters. Montonius (talk) 04:46, September 17, 2013 (UTC)

Looking for insight.
Hey man this wiki is completely amazing, I’m contacting you because I’m a 3D modeler and right now I’m looking to pull through the SEVERAL articles in order to gather enough ‘concepts’ or inspiration to model a Chaos Fortress/ Dark Mechanicus Forge. I wanted to know if you had any, insight as to what articles or art work I should pour over? Like I said I’m filling through it all on my own, but I’m not overly familiar with the lore all that much. So yea, any insight would be greatly appreciated :D

RE: Blood Ravens Page Numbers
Digital format is not a proper method of citing page number. Depending on what reader or file format is used pages number can vary and in some cases change if display settings are changed. The true page number of your citation in the Blood Ravens article is 430, pg 26 is the proper page number citing the raven head crest of the Corvidae cult also referenced in the article.

Zach, there are two images I'd like from the SM Codex to add to the wiki; the map of the location of all the Chapters and the giant schematic of the entire 2nd company of the Ultramarines. Can you get these images into a source large enough to be legible on th wiki in the case of the map, and compress the image into a single, massive image in the case of the 2nd Company? In the case of the map, I have another copy with it sectioned up into very large pieces that can be pasted together if you can't do it from your copy. Let me know.Montonius (talk) 03:25, September 21, 2013 (UTC)

Ultramarines
Hey Zach, can you make sure all the new info on the Ultramarines makes it onto their page? I think its the last one of the major Chapter overhauls covered in the 6th Ed. Codex that we didn't get around to yet. Also, can you make sure that every image of the individual Space Marines from each Chapter in the Codex has been tranasposed to the wiki? I beleve you did them all, but let's just make a final check to be sure, one by one.

Finally, did you pick up a copy of Emperor's Chosen to make those edits, or are those from the previews? Montonius (talk) 04:47, September 24, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks!
Thanks for cleaning up my first entry on the Angels Penitent page and additionally adding it to the Angels Resplendent page, I'm still trying to get to grips with it :)

Even better, I wasn't sure how much detail to go into so I kept the details vague in case I went to far which is why I left out some of the quotes and such, but that's looking a lot better. Did you read the book, what did you think of it if you did? :)

Vandalism
The vandalism is continuing. Please keep on the watch and ban the vandal (s) every time he switches IP addresses. This will burn out in a day or so once it just becomes more of a chore for him to make the switch. Also, Admin-lock any vandalized page for now as they seem to keep focusing on the same pages.

Space Marine Homeworld Map
Hows the map coming? Montonius (talk) 04:37, September 27, 2013 (UTC)

Thousand Sons Characters
Zach, while I applaud and encourage your attention to detail, these Thousand Sons character pages are way too long and over-detailed. You are redescribing events better chronicled elsewhere in which the character played little or no part, like the Ullanor Crusade. Keep the subsidiary character pages more directly focused on their actions. Use links to the appropriate pages for an elucidation of the greater events like the Ullanor Crusade, etc. For instance, this much detail is certainly warranted for a Primarch or a character like Ahriman who are major players in the history of the galaxy across multiple millennia, but guys who died in the Horus Heresy don't need a recapitulation of the entire period's or Legion's history. It's a waste of time better spent elsewhere. I will edit what has already been done in this vein, but let's make these subsidiary character pages a little more manageable. Thanks.

Thank you
Hey man,

Just wanted to thank you for all the work you put in on this wiki. I read this site for hours and hours and I really appreciate everything you do on here. Thanks again man, I'll keep reading!

Take care,

Sourcing
Zach, you need to remove the Digital Edition label from the sourcing if you're using the hardback numbers. Montonius (talk) 04:09, October 3, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks!
Thanks for Typhus, Zach! Can you do a page on the Blight Grenade and the Destroyer Hive? The info for the Blight Grenade can be pasted from the Plague Marines page. Montonius (talk) 09:01, October 8, 2013 (UTC)

Sourcing for Chapter page
We need the 6th Edition Codex sources on the Chapter page. Thanks. Montonius (talk) 10:50, October 10, 2013 (UTC)

Hello,

I'm new to this wiki/forum so I've got a question. I got this message on my talk page and now I would like to know if I did something wrong?

Greetings from a fellow Space Wolf

Ragnar Blackmane
Can you do a rework of this page and bring it up to current standards? It may already be complete in all its particulars, but it does need a proper Wargear section at the least. If you can make any improvements, it'd be great. Thanks. Montonius (talk) 11:08, October 18, 2013 (UTC)

Legionary Numerology
When using the number of a Space Marine Legion rather than its name, we write "XVIII Legion", not "XVIIIth Legion." I realise it may be stated this way in the GW books, but it is incorrect. The numbering scheme is based on that of the Roman Legions, which military historians write as above; the "th" is implied when using Roman numerals, just as it is for kings and queen's regnal numbers (i.e. Louis XIV, Henry VIII). Also, do not write the "Thousand Sons XV Legion"; write it one way or the other. I have also created links now for all the Legionary numbers to the proper page so you can link the first use of them in a page. Thanks. Montonius (talk) 17:35, October 20, 2013 (UTC)

Age of Apostasy
Zach, this page is a disaster. All the information we need for a rewrite is already present on the Reign of Blood and Plague of Unbelief pages. Can you just combine those two texts on this page in a logical manner? Thanks, buddy. Montonius (talk) 17:42, October 20, 2013 (UTC)
