[edit] Article name

My opinion would be that this article should be at Gregor Eisenhorn, and this page should be a redirect there, rather than the other way round (as it is currently), as full names in titles are generally a good idea. Could someone explain the reasoning behind doing it this way round? Cheers --Pak21 10:12, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

After reading the series, both me and my friend refer to him as Eisenhorn rather than Gregor or Gregor Eisenhorn. When I first searched for the article I searched "Eisenhorn" and I'm guessing a lot of other people do too. Ibram Gaunt is simply known as Gaunt (though "Bram" to occaisionally, notably the reunion with Rawne towards the end of His Last Command. Eisenhorn is generally known as Eisenhorn in the book and the trilogy edition is called Eisenhorn. Therefore I would prefer Eisenhorn to be kept under the name Eisenhorn rather than moved to Gregor Eisenhorn. --Nayl 02:12, 06 January 2006
I think the articles should be under the full name. Redirects will make any problems with finding it moot anyway. Also, Wikipedia:Naming conventions (people) suggests that this page should redirect to Gregor Eisenhorn, and not the other way around. --Falcorian (talk) 18:55, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

In the spirit of being bold I have moved it to fit in better with Wikipedia:Naming conventions (people). --Falcorian (talk) 18:34, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NPoV

"Their most capable and popular author"? Does NPoV mean anything here? Suggest replacing with "successful" --Charax 10:34, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

Be bold! Cheers --Pak21 10:36, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dates and ages

According to the second Eisenhorn book, 'Malleus', the events in 'Xenos' take place in "the summer of 240 [240.M41]", not 720.M41 as listed in the article. Additionally, 'Malleus' is stated as taking place in 338.M41. I've fixed this in the article. --Xenomrph 22:08, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT

"Eisenhorn manages to catch up with Urisel Glaw, who confirms that House Glaw is in league with Slaanesh. Eisenhorn then kills him."

Eisenhorn does NOT kill Urisel.

Urisel gets knocked out and Eisenhorn hands him over to the Inquisition (Commodus Voke, Titus Endor, Schongard, etc.). Urisel Glaw gets tortured - heavily - so that the Inquisiton can learn what exactly the "true matter" is.

We're trying. Please assume good faith, and if you see an error, why not be bold and fix it, rather than just posting about it here? Cheers --Pak21 15:05, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cherubael

Don't MergeOk someone has suggested this be merged with the Eisenhorn article, however as I understood it, the article was specifically about the man and not the series of books which should be under an article titled "The Eisenhorn Trilogy", or something similar in my opinion. Cherubael was a character from the series and not even one of the most notable ones. Would you create and article on Eyeclone? No.--Nayl 03:33, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

What do you suggest happens to the Cherubael article if it's not merged here? He/she/it isn't a notable character as suggested by our guidelines, so the only other thing I see to happen to it is to delete it. It seems to me that merging it here would be preferable to that. Cheers --Pak21 08:22, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
If we merge the Cherubael article with the Eisenhorn article then there will be a strong argument for putting all the other characters that are notable within the series, but not within the Warhammer Universe as a whole, into the article, which I think you agree (I don't see how you couldn't) would make the article unnessecarily long. --Nayl 18:27, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
I agree with Nayl. I propose no merger. --Falcorian (talk) 03:11, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Xenos

I wasn't aware that wikipedia was going to be renamed "Storytime". Seriously, why is the entire plot of the first book there and why just the first book? For now, I'm going to be bold and shorten it dramatically but I think it should be removed completely. --Nayl 03:33, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Done but it still needs some work. --Nayl 03:45, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
