The Page Length warning showed up on the page edited just now (to remove some improperly used aversions) so the page will need to be split/cut down again.

Personally, as the Horus Heresy character pages exist, I would say that any tropes that are only referenced in that series should be moved there to free up space efore any split.

What came to mind for me was moving the folders for the Loyalist and Traitor Primarchs to separate pages and providing links here.

That could be the best (and was suggested on the forum when I posted the same question there), another option could be to move the Current sections of the various Primarchs to their factions sections on other pages, keeping this page for historical character tropes.

Also, what about my suggestion of moving the Horuse Heresy novels only tropes (such as the Badass Baritone trope in the General Primarchs section) to that series' pages. There is also some repetition between the General Primarchs section and the individual Primarchs section that could possibly trimmed due to the guidelines against duplication.

Are there any comments on some of my ideas or further alternate suggestions or should we go ahead and split the traitor & loyalist Primarches to their own page. Also, if we do go with that solution, should the traitor ones be part of the Imperial Founders sections and/or the Chaos section?

I went ahead and made a Characters Chaos Primarchs Traitor Primarchs Sandbox]] to work on.

Further to the PM conversation with Will B Good I thought I continue here.

Which pictures should be used for Fulgrim & Angron's Daemon forms, the old Epic models or the artwork. While I am not a fan of the pictures for the Epic models due to the quality of the scan I still think they should be used over the artwork due to the preference for using pics of the most up to date models over artwork. 40K is a miniature wargame after all.

Any thoughts?

Are there any artworks of their daemon forms from official sources?

Does anyone have a source for whether Dorn has ever had a Badass Moustache? I have looked into it before and couldn't find any source for it that wasn't Fanon/a meme and all the depictions of him in the last few years have been sans facial hair.

Odd, I don't see it myself.

If that is truly the origin of this then the entry should probably be removed.

With the recent expansion of this page to include relatively minor characters from the Horus Heresy series, should some of the information here be split off into a character page for the Horus Heresy series?

Could be good, though these are members that helped with the foundations of the Imperium, small or big. It could be the case of adding additional folders about the humans like Karkasy that though part of the Luna Wolves fleet, wasn't actually part of them.

I have thought there should be a Horus Heresy page for a while now for the characters that aren't Primarchs or the Emperor. The other pages are mainly for characters who have or have had rules for games set in the Age of the Imperium.

Having a separate page for the HH characters works for me.

Another idea that's getting some support in the 40K thread is to have the Forge World miniatures of the Primarchs as their images on the page, to keep the page in line with the other 40K character pages. I did some tests last night and the pics of the models from FW's site look great at wiki size.

I added a new character sheet for the Horus Heresy. Basically, I took the page, and transplanted with the minor characters added. I also rearranged the Imperial Founders page so that only the Primarchs, Malcador and the Emperor are here.

Cool. The idea about using the models for the Primarchs is gathering support in the 40K thread...if there's no serious dissent in the next few days, I'll make those swaps.

Alright, I'm going to start giving the Primarchs intros to go along with the trope lists and incorporating the model pics...as new ones are released, they can be incorporated.
