For the primitive reference page at:

I would suggest including links to the actual primitives on the tracker so people could view them in 3D.

You're welcome to help out. I added links to the two dimensional rects prims as template. Feel free to add the rest.

I created an account for you at the wiki and send you a temporary passwords via email. Please drop me a PM if there are any problems with the account.

should the 3 technic pegholes with extension (peghole2/4/5) get the length added? as of now its hard to see (not explained in either primref nor parts themself) when to use what -> maybe a small text like "for use on Technic bricks upwards"
peghole2 long: Technic Bricks down (14LDU)
peghole4 short: Technic Beams/Liftarms (9 LDU)
peghole5 medium: Technic Bricks up/Technic frames center section (10 LDU)

No problem adding information, but it should be added to a HELP in the prim in the first place.
