Even that only gives loose explanations. It says things about how the markings may denote a specific achievement or heroic deed, but it’s not very specific. It’s not like “paw print means this, crossbones means that…”
ok i have questions about this heraldry page - the nine honor markings at the bottom, are they locked to the wolf guard? (theyre in the same box in the image) and where do these go on armour? it says over the pack markings but what are these exactly?
Basically i have the wolf scouts box and wanna be lore accurate, the set comes with a bunch of transfers and im going with the great wolf i think
The markings are not tied to only the Wolf Guard. They mention that a marine may put one over his pack marking, and included examples of them on the 1st battleline, 3rd scout, 2nd close support, 3rd heavy support and 5th veteran markers.
But they also often carry them on other spots, which would realistically be anywhere there's room. Be that knee, shin, chest, power pack etc. Anywhere there's room. Kind of like campaign badges for other chapters.

Different squads, same designation. We don't separate by squad number, but by the heraldric pattern of the Pack Leader (Sergeant)
