Revision as of 02:58, 1 February 2010

Hey there, I recently made an update to the Ultramarines page but due to not having used sources it was removed. The data in question stems from this page, http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Ultramarines and concerns the fleet disposition as well as a lot of serious backstory fluff on the Ultramarines. There are plenty of sources displayed on the page but unlike here, they do not have direct references as to what they source in the information. This is mainly why I did not add the sources. I believe the information on that page could make a serious contribution to our somewhat limited database on a Chapter as prestigious and well known as the Ultramarines. Could somehow help me transfer information with the appropriate sources?

DON'T use (let alone transfer) any material from other wikis! Plagiarism in the best, unreliable in the worst. Track the official sources, read them and write your own summaries of the relevant parts. --Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum 22:44, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Ah, okay! Very sorry for that. I'll do my best to track down the sources and write a summary myself! Thank you for your assistance and understanding! -User:Arius Daemonis 2:02 [GMT], 10 August 2009
