The '''{{PAGENAME}}''', or '''Damnatio Memoriae''' in [[High Gothic]], is an [[Imperial]] policy regarding historical censorship.{{Fn|1}}
Declared by the [[High Lords of Terra]] against [[Heretic]]s deemed too dangerous to be known or remembered, an Edict of Obliteration involves erasing the very presence of the individual from history and society as if they had never existed. Carried out by the [[Inquisition]], all knowledge of the individual and their actions are thereafter classified and known only to the higher officials of Imperial power. Notable figures who have been subjected to an Edict of Obliteration have been [[Lufgt Lugft Huron]] and the [[Daemon Primarch]]s.{{Fn|1}}
The Edict of Obliteration can sometimes be applied to entire historical events, such as the [[Badab War]] and [[Horus Heresy]].{{Fn|1}}
