Talk:Tanith War-Knife
Title Change
Throughout the Gaunt's Ghosts books, 'warknife' is spelled without a hyphen. To my knowledge it's never spelled with one - it is certainly extremely uncommon. The article itself uses the correct spelling throughout, but the page title is incorrect.
To that end the page title should be changed to the correct spelling.

- The first source listed in the article uses the spelling “war-knife” (while also calling it a Tanith blade). I agree that it is spelled “warknife” slightly more consistently later in the series (in The Guns of Tanith in particular) but I went with the earliest spelling as the main title and made the others redirects.

- I confirm.

- Ah, I see now. In the later released Omnibus, 'warknife' used without the hyphen. Hence the disagreement.--Darkelf77 (talk) 16:17, 16 June 2022 (UTC)
Ah, I only own the omnibus versions so it makes sense that I wouldn't have seen the earlier spelling version. (Though in your second image, the word is split across two lines which can be done with any word not just a hyphen.)
Earliest spelling takes precedence, I completely agree.

Just to add, the 5th edition Guard codex also hyphenates it. KazilDarkeye (talk) 10:11, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
