message: The link for Kislev in this article sends you to an article about a  Hebrew month, not one about the ficticious Russia-based nation of the Warhammer world.

message: As the eight winds of magic seems to be tied to the Empire (rather than being accepted and used as an "explanation" of magic world-wide) wouldn't it be appropriate to add such a section (or link, if a separate article exists)?195.24.29.51 15:39, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Most of the information on the provinces here is woefully out of date, probably because the official background has changed substantially over the last ten-fifteen years. Many fans are very attached to the old 3rd edition background, and the information here seems to be an attempt to fudge the issue and retaining as much of the older stuff as possible. This doesn't stop it being wrong, though- an awful lot of the information presented here has no basis in the current written background at all.
Perhaps a compromise could be reached where the correct (current) information is presented here, but the older background is linked to or referenced in some other way?

message: Hello there! I don't know anything about Warhammer, I only read this page because the new Warhammer Online looks interesting. Being from Germany I noticed that nearly everything in the Warhammer Empire has a german name (persons, cities...). I'm curious to why that is. Does anyone know? 84.59.207.194 (talk) 13:05, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
