The article is subject to sustained vandalism by adding the word "multilasers" to the article. A background for these attacks can be found at the dakkadakka.com forum thread From where does come C.S Goto multilaser joke? |
This word appears to be used too many timesand is not given any specific definition. A casual reader is not likely to understand the whole article
The issues of C.S. Goto's notability can be disputed, however the extremely divided reactions from the fan community (despite what my initial version of the page may have implied, there were multiple positive opinions of his works) and the Dawn of War connection justify placing a Wikipedia entry about him.--The Fifth Horseman 13:16, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
I am aware that the recent "Let the galaxy burn" antology from Black Library includes a previously unpublished story by Goto. I was, however, unable to find out what is that story's title. If anyone knows, please add it.--The Fifth Horseman 15:57, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
The defensive posture Goto makes in his entry here on wiki represents fully what the entire 40K community beleives. Goto hasnt researched GW's IP for his novels well enough to satisfy even cursory browsing through his novels without disdain from readers. To date, I have yet to find anyone that follows his views on how he portrays the warhamer 40000 universe. Fat farseers? Children stuffing rocks into the weapons of highly advanced fast moving vehicles? This hardly satisfies even the most naieve of new readers of GW's worlds. Being able to produce product quickly does not equate to well done. Hellfury 17:41, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
NEEEERDS! I am aware of this issue myself, but what does it have to do with the article? Are you going to make a section on CANON DEVIATIONS? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.31.3.133 (talk) 19:47, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
Not deviations, just inconsistencies with previously published material. :) --The Fifth Horseman (talk) 09:30, 28 September 2011 (UTC) Interestingly, I just found that the controversy has been mentioned on an interview published on Goto's own website: [1], and some of it has been vaguely mentioned on his "have your say page" ([2]). This would constitute a basis for confirming that a controversy regarding the accuracy of his novels to the details of the setting did in fact exist. --The Fifth Horseman (talk) 12:16, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
As far as I can see there are no acceptable sources for the whole controversy issue. While I believe this controversy exists, all we have is Goto responding to one poster about one accuracy issues. And it is one of the more defensible of Goto's apparent inaccuracies. As currently written the controversy section seems biased in favour of Goto, lacks decent sources, and either needs a rewrite with sources or deletion. the_raptor 18:49, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
A lot of the bias were introduced in edits made by "Corrector01". I guess that some things will need clarification and explanation (as the fact that publication by Black Library does not automatically make a certain story a part of 40k "canon").
I also had a more detailed list of what exact source materials are contradicted (altough limited to the content present in the samples on Black Library site). Might have deleted it since, will have to check.--The Fifth Horseman 14:14, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
It seems the "official website" link is dead as of February 2nd 2013. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CyberMurph (talk • contribs) 14:21, 2 February 2013 (UTC)

It seems like a quick tl;dr might be useful here. Anyways, to summarize why it's been vandalized often, the author is a somewhat controversial figure regarding his WH40k novels, which are often perceived by fans to be of low quality. Many such edits appearing to be coming from a link at this rather nsfw website. Just thought I'd provide a quick summary in case of further vandalism, since the linked forum thread isn't all that clear.--Ilikerainandstorms (talk) 16:01, 25 October 2017 (UTC)
Having written, even controversially, some licensed products for a production company without any notabile success and with no material in fifteen years, it seems to me that this contract writer does not merit a wikipedia entry. CyberMurph (talk) 21:14, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
