I'm not a lawyer or anyone from Games Workshop- I'm just pointing out what I think might be a problem.

I noticed that there are two wikis here, Warhammer 40k Wiki and Warhammer 40k Fanon Wiki. I also have seen that they don't seem to be following and are violating Games Workshop's unofficial IP use guidelines. The two major ones are that they both use GW IP in their names and domain names; GW does not allow anyone to use "Warhammer" or any other IP or trademark in a website name or domain name unless they are officially licensed. Their domains are http://warhammer40k.wikia.com http://warhammer40kfanon.wikia.com. Those websites also lack proper attribution of IP to Games Workshop, or the relevant disclaimers stating that the wiki is unofficial. Many of the pictures at the Warhammer 40k Wiki don't have the proper attribution on the pictures, and don't say whether they were fan made or created by GW. The fanon wiki doesn't seem to use image credits at all. The wikis should also place disclaimers at the bottom of the article that says it is owned by GW and is unofficial. The fanon wiki also has a template called "property" that is used to show who the author is, and anally assert copyright over something that they don't own.
