No real world references or assertion of notability. Fails WP:RS by relying on primary sources. -- JediLofty UserTalk 14:22, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Notability is not established through significant coverage in independent third-party sources. While this appears as if it might be a core part of the game background, in actual fact the majority of this material dates back to 20-year-old supplemental articles, all from the publisher, and it is seldom if ever referred to in the current game at all.

Delete - no assertion of notability through significant coverage in independent sources. Article is nothing more than pure plot summary, and fails WP:NOT#PLOT. sephiroth bcr(converse) 00:49, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete this article is almost entirely recapitulation of backstory from the warhammer universe and so fails WP:PLOT. Beyond that the "age of strife" in warhammer 40K is not covered in independent sources, failing the WP:GNG. Protonk (talk) 01:08, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Plot summary and in-universe detail without real-world content. Lack of substantial coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject indicates the topic is non-notable. Doctorfluffy (robe and wizard hat) 01:29, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
