After the fb page, Games Workshop put another site online: "The Regimental Standard".
There isn't a lot of things, as it is the beggining.
It is Imperium propaganda in-universe, and I think there is a point of humour, mocking there own design / flawed concept.
Here is the link:

Ruin- It's official, we've ran out of things to talk about on Dakka. Close the site. We're done.

That is actually pretty funny and good to see that GW is changing their ways. Though I wonder if we already should know about this site? The Tau entry is labled "test-7" in the URL, there is no Home button, no logo, no navigation.
Maybe switched to live modus by accident?

It's a community site as in made by the community... So I doubt this has been done by GW. It's probably done by someone in their free time.

Poor ignorant guardsmen, it be but one of many of the great miracles of the Emperor! The Emperor is magic, like Harry Potter, but more magic! A most real and true SPACE WIZARD! And for the last time... I'm not a space plumber.

A quick who.is shows the domain is actually under the ownership of GW.

Thank you! I was thinking about doing this too, but figured I'd scroll down to see if anyone else had.
Does mean it's at least quasi-official.

Huh, seems like someone over at GWHQ found a dusty old copy of the imperial infantryman's uplifting primer. Bit of a ways to go to get to the level of that little gem, though.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure some of this is verbatim from that great little book, but I'm happy to see it.

I saw this earlier but had no idea it was GW content. I am shocked and extremely pleased to see GW engaging like this even if is pretty tame ... after so long with the fortress mentality, and an almost hostile attitude toward the customer, this is a breath of fresh air!

Interesting that the "posters" link to the relevant sections of the GW website; Big guns never tire takes you to IG heavies.
Also, love the little meta joke of the notation on the Tau battle suit labelling the ankles as "extremely unstable", never a truer word spoken in jest!

Find a copy of the Imperial Infantryman's Uplifting Primer, it's filled with stuff like that.

I was always tickled by the diagram of a Guardsman towering over the Ork while stabbing it with a bayonet.

I haven't read it for awhile. Wasn't it along the linesof "Hold your breath and wait for rescue".
It was also little touches like the abhuman section in the second edition looking like it had been taped over the previously redacted section.
