Just to clarify, this page tells of the stats for the in-game units - not the lore for them. Whether a unit is portrayed as being good or evil in lore is irrelevant here.

All the information listed in these race info pages have been directly taken from the game's files and are the rules that you play by, which is why they're listed as they are, desppite contradictory to popular belief. To say Dwarves are good on this page would be an incorrect statement about the gameplay. (Just like saying a Daemon Hero is an evil creature would also be an incorrect statement on these pages - we all know he should be tagged as evil, but is actually classed as being good due to an obviouas over sight.)

However, considering that each new WBC game had introduced a new Dwarven unit who was also tagged as being neutral suggests that the developers intended the Dwarves to be considered neutral in-game, otherewise the alignment would be inconsistant across the whole race if some were incorrectly tagged. Also, some people give good reasons why they're aligned this way and claim this is actually how they're portrayed in the lore. Check the official I2 forums to see reasons for Dark Dwarves not being evil.
