[edit] Article creation

Well, here it is. I've also included this article in Project WH40K. I haven't deleted the information contained here from the original Necron article, nor does it contain a link to this one.. yet. I'd like to first hear your opinions and suggestions before going public. Take care.. --Xasf 11:06, 03 July 2006 (GMT+3)

Be bold! Cheers --Pak21 08:26, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
Since you ask for it.. ;) Removed duplicate content & linked Necron to this article. Take care.. --Xasf 11:36, 03 July 2006 (GMT+3)

[edit] Living metal?

Shouldn't Living Metal get a mention here? It is "technology", after all- remember that the Necrontyr came up with it, and did not use Warp-stuff (so it's clearly technology, and not "magic" or anything like that). It's pretty important to the Necrons... seems to me it should get a nod. Cheers --DarthBinky 15:51, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

There is a small reference and wikilink to Necrodermis Living Metal in the Warscythe and Monolith descriptions, but if you'd like to see something more extensive.. Well, I'm not sure how we can categorize a material technology under weapons, equipment or vehicles.. You are welcome to try though.. Take care --Xasf 09:13, 05 July 2006 (GMT+3)

[edit] Gauss tech

Actually, there's just one slight mention in the Codex fluff about their relation to actual gauss guns. Necron gauss weapons are described as "asynchronous linear induction motors" at one point. A real-life gauss weapon -IS- essentially an ALIM (See here). Beyond that however, its all fictional nonsense. CABAL 12:29, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Tombship.gif

Image:Tombship.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
