Talk:List of Eldar (Warhammer 40,000)

Mergers
The three merger pages (Maugan Ra, Phoenix Lord and Eldrad Ulthran) have been placed because thay are stubs and should be mergered here. Also see WikiProject Warhammer 40,000 Pterodactal 01:03, 20 February 2007 (UTC)


 * I'm for the merge. Why? Well, firstly, I personally don't think individual units should have their own articles because that's just way too widespread and scattered. It also leaves these little stubs everywhere that are rarely worked on. Information is too small. Unless the section grows to an increasing significant size, then I'd be for a separation.

 * I oppose the merge. I believe some reorganization is needed, but I'm not sure the best way to do so. I would actually prefer moving the individual Phoenix Lords onto the Phoenix lord article, as opposed to the other way around, as I believe there is enough information to add more to the Phoenix Lord page, which isn't something you could really do on this page. Further I'm for leaving Eldrad separate as a major character. That might even remove the need for this page... --Falcorian (talk) 14:43, 3 April 2007 (UTC)


 * As an encyclopedia article, I'm for merging, AND deleting most of the content (which I expect is plaigarized largely, anyway). If I was looking up "The army in the game Warhammer 40k called Eldar", not being familiar with it, or possibly the game, an article including the battle history of Maugan Ra would seem, well, stupid.  This should be about the place of Eldar in the game/world, not a love-fest for the fiction.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.126.163.20 (talk) 14:57, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Lhykosidae
I have added him to the list (without being logged on). It could possibly be arguable that he might not be an Asurya, but is described as such in the novel with plenty of background, history and also a glossary with additional information. Malleus 20:43, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Did Lhykosidae actually found the Warp Spider aspect? Because if not, then can he really be counted as a Phoenix Lord? Sybaronde 23:22, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

I have deleted Lhykosidae, as he only appears in a Black Libary novel. Black Libary novels is not cannon for the 40k universe, and he has never been mentioned in any publication from GW. (GW and Black Libary are NOT the same, although they are owned by the same company)
 * Our Guidelines actually say otherwise, so I'm reverting. --Falcorian (talk) 16:53, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Jain Zar
There might be an error in the description and translation of Jain Zar. I doubt that the Eldar language is that versatile... :-) "[...]Jain Zar (which translates as 'The Storm of Silence') [...] weapons of choice are the Jain Zar (which translates as 'Blade of Destruction'[...]"--Helge Philipp (talk) 12:45, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
