Every article which is categorised correctly, will automatically be diplayed in the corresponding category.--Inquisitor S. 20:51, 3 Aug 2005 (CEST)


I think we need to standardise Codex naming procedures. I am thinking something like having Codex: Whatever (whichever edition) for every codex in order to allow for future releases without having to move the page to make way for the new codex.--Jonru 10:10, 18 February 2006 (CET)

This is a good idea. However, I would suggest doing it by copyright year (1999, 2002, 2007) instead of rules edition (2nd edition, 3rd edition, 4th edition). The reason is that some of the 3rd edition codexes (Dark Angels, Dark Eldar) had a "2nd edition" sticker on them with different rules. Sometime it might be necessary or desirable to distinguish between the two. And using '2nd Edition of Codex: Dark Eldar (3rd Edition)' would be confusing. --Rlyehable 23:03, 6 February 2007 (CET)

Very few people orientate themselves by publication year. And as we focus on background and not on rules and the background info is identical we don't need that. It is sufficient that you distinguish within the article the different versions. --Inquisitor S. 23:48, 6 February 2007 (CET)

Do we already have articles for Apocalypse? and are we treating them as a seperate game system or just as a modification as we do with Cities of Death?

We don't have an article for the apocalypse books I don't think, but we're treating it as part of the main system as it is more of a modification than a whole new game. There are several articles on the units found within the apocalypse books though.--Jonru 12:15, 23 July 2008 (CEST)



Having cited them in my overhaul of the Angelis article, as it was missing any citations whatsoever, should I add articles for the Gorkamorka Rulebooks (Da Roolz, Da Uvver Book, and Digganob)? Several of the pieces of backgraound material featured in them later made their way into codices, White Dwarf, and other books. Such as the Ork Evolution and Alignment of Pyramids on Angelis texts. --Sunyavadin 03:05, 24 July 2008 (BST)
