    It's pretty much on a need to know basis, if it's needed to expand on what they are talking about, or to understand the history of the character it will be put in the unending codex to give fresh players who start at 6.1 the chance to catch up.
    Have you read some of the entries? It has one on concepts like aether and the First Brood. This isn't intended purely as some "entry point" for new players, and Hydaelyn's entry goes beyond what you'd convey to a "new player" who is unfamiliar with the lore, even expanding on the Convocation and her role within it. Elidibus, who is explicitly mentioned in the MSQ along with the Ascians, is such a key character that his omission alongside Zodiark's should rightfully raise eyebrows. Sure, they can pick and choose, but this isn't really a particularly great argument in response to the OP. Given that her own entry extensively references Zodiark, I'd say an entry for him or Elidibus would be warranted, beyond her own entry which reads like some mesmerised fanboi's hagiography of her.

    Yeah, and this guy (who has an entry) is a supermodel:



    But even rabid narcissists can bear the form of "sexy crystal mommy" angels, I suppose.
