::The Kargos file has not been protected against editting, but there seems to be a technical problem I have to contact the IT people about. I have encountered the same problem with two other files yesterday, so there seems to be a glitch somewhere. When that is fixed, we will come back to those files.
::But while we are at it another issue: Please do not use the image format PNG unless absolutely necessary (there are some rare cases like images with transparent backgrounds). JPG always should be the go-to format. The reason for this is that PNG (and other files) have a tendency to be unreasonably big storagewise. And with the amount of storage space available and also the speed with which pages load for users this is a consideration to take, thanks. --[[User:Inquisitor S.|Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum]] ([[User talk:Inquisitor S.|talk]]) 20:33, 6 December 2020 (UTC)
No problem. I will make sure to use JPG if I upload any other images!

==Article issues==
We very seriously have to talk about the articles you are writing on the basis of the Codex Imperialis and other 2nd ed books. Their content simply cannot stand like that, you have inserted tons of your own interpretations, speculations and conjectures. For Karazantor the Vile for example we know nothing with certainty apart from the quote. All the rest is basically what you have complemented to make sense of it. And that we absolutely cannot do. Also I really do not see why Chicano for example should be a daemon world. Daemon worlds are something completely else than described in the given source. Please be back to me about that so that we can fix these problems before they become real issues, thanks. --[[User:Inquisitor S.|Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum]] ([[User talk:Inquisitor S.|talk]]) 21:04, 6 December 2020 (UTC)
I definitely appreciate you bringing these issues up and I don't mean to cause any problems. For the info on Karazantor the Vile, I am positive he is associated with Tzeentch as his miniature is in Citadel's 1991 catalog on page 107 in the Chaos Renegade Tzeentch section. It appears he has a Thousand Sons (Tzeentch) symbol on his shoulder in the Codex Imperialis image as well as the Athanaeans symbols (Tzeentch) on his knee armour and clothing so I added the Characters Thousand Sons category to the page. From the image, we can see he is riding a Disc of Tzeentch which serves as a mount for Champions of Tzeentch so I stated he was a Chaos Lord but perhaps that should be updated to Chaos Champion? Finally with the reference to Chicano in his profile, you are correct in that this was an assumption on my part and it can be removed if necessary. My thought process on this was basically following breadcrumbs. Since Karazantor is known as the Traitor of Xian in Codex Imperialis (2nd Edition) quote and image and we know he is associated with Tzeentch and there is a excerpt regarding Chicano (taken over by cultist Tzeentch followers i.e. traitors) on page 18 of the 40k 2nd Edition Wargear book which also references a Lord Xian Torus, in my head I figured the odds of having two references to a "Xian" both found in 2nd edition books both linked to Tzeentch meant that Karazantor was likely involved in the downfall of Chicano. Again, this can be removed if necessary. With Chicano being classed as a Daemon world, that was again an assumption on my part seeing as though it was taken over by Tzeentch followers and the text in the 2nd edition book mentions Tzeentch and laughter from the warp. Perhaps it should be classed as Unknown? Thanks!
