Unidentified ISB
Hey Tope, during my research into Imperial military ranks I found this again, which has been used as an official reference here since it came from a Lucasfilm supervisor in the art department. When I saw that Yularen was featured in it, I remembered that there was another officer with him in the Death Star as Luke, Han, and Chewie were waiting for an elevator and noticed he didn't have an article. I was about to make the canon article as Unidentified Imperial Security Bureau commodore (as the art department rank chart established that the insignia that officer has is of a commodore). However, I decided to look into Yularen's Legends page to see if the officer was named and thus avoid making an article due to policy, and I found the redlink for Unidentified Imperial Security Bureau (Death Star) and saw that it was deleted for lack of notability. Do you think it's appropriate to make the canon Unidentified Imperial Security Bureau commodore page? I can't find more information besides what's in the film and what the rank chart says about the insignia. Thanks and let me know!-- Vitus Infinitus  Talk 03:20, July 5, 2019 (UTC)
 * If I were to argue that it is notable, I'd say that this is the only ISB Commodore we know of in canon, but I'm not 100% sure if that's enough.-- Vitus Infinitus  Talk 03:21, July 5, 2019 (UTC)
 * I don't think just having a rank makes him deserving of an article. Until he does something or is assigned something specifically attributable to his character besides walking down a hallway with Yularen, the information can be covered under the ISB and Commodore articles. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 17:47, July 5, 2019 (UTC)
 * Sounds good, thanks!-- Vitus Infinitus  Talk 14:33, July 6, 2019 (UTC)

Image pages
Hey there, Tope. As this issue is still ongoing, and even though I've given Fandom support the exact issue that is the source of the problem, it's been over 6 weeks and it's still not fixed. This issue is, we cannot add http:// or https:// to any File/image page, unless it is during the initial upload of the file. And it is confirmed that it only affects File pages. I don't know enough about templates to even attempt testing my suggestion.

Similar to the InstagramCite where the template automatically adds the http:// www.instagram.com/ to the url, could a solution be to change the templates to pre-insert the http:// so all we have to add is the www.blahblahblah.com for the urls in templates like Cite web and the archive links for all of the source templates? -  JMAS  Jolly Trooper.png Hey, it's me! 13:58, July 17, 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm aware of the file-page bug, and I understand it's extremely annoying. This is one of a few fairly significant bugs affecting Wookieepedia right now that Wikia, who is also aware of the issue, seems unable or unwilling to fix at this time. I'm told the file bug is specifically a local issue affecting only Wookieepedia, which makes it very difficult to track down (and probably not as high on their list of concerns as other global issues). Moreover, Wikia is currently in the long process of updating and overhauling their entire MediaWiki package, which probably makes it even less likely they will fix any ongoing bugs any time soon, since any problems will be easier and more practical to fix on clean, updated software. As for a template workaround, that's probably something you would want to talk about with Imperators, EJ, or ecks, who understand that stuff much better than I do. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 17:55, July 17, 2019 (UTC)

Re: Creating OOU articles
Hey, Tope! Per LG/OOU, I thought bibliography sections are for non-fiction works that mention the individual, while their personal contributions go under a published works/filmography section. I'm aware that Verify suggests adding bib/links sections, but is that really needed in this case? - Cwedin (talk) 02:29, August 8, 2019 (UTC)
 * To answer your question, yes, it should be necessary because I believe the "Published works" section serves a separate function from the Bibliography. For in-universe articles, for example, the Appearances/Sources sections basically serve to demonstrate that the article subject is mentioned within the sources listed under those two sections. The Bibliography does the same for OOU articles. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 02:46, August 8, 2019 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. LG/OOU doesn't really reflect that for Person articles though. It might need an update. :P - Cwedin (talk) 02:57, August 8, 2019 (UTC)

RE: ID Tag
Checking the source, I believe that I created it since the implication is that the ID tag also acts as automated security; visitors are given ID tags restricting them to certain areas, while they are omnipresent on citizens (even while not working) to regulate their presence on a given level. Rereading it, that is definitely the implication I still have, but admittedly is not stated outright. Here's the exact quotes so you can see what I worked from:


 * The characters are issued visitor ID tags which will grant them access to all public levels, including holoparks, shops and markets, and other common areas.


 * They will notice that each person has an ID badge on their clothing, whether they are working or off-duty; even children have these badges. The badges are used to regulate the presence of personnel on certain floor.

Even if the automated security implication is not applicable, would the use of them in such as way be enough to warrant the article? - Sir Cavalier of One ( Squadron channel ) 19:35, August 16, 2019 (UTC)
 * I'd agree with that. From the item's use described in the article, the name tag serves pretty much the same purpose as the ID tag. If you want to suggest merge and redirect, I'd support that. - Sir Cavalier of One FarStar.svg( Squadron channel ) 00:35, August 17, 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the heads-up -- changed my vote. - Sir Cavalier of One FarStar.svg( Squadron channel ) 11:32, August 21, 2019 (UTC)

Lott Dod image sourcing
I found the image on Web Archive by using the back-up link https://web.archive.org/web/20050220194000/http://www.holonetnews.com:80/49/news/13328_3.html which directed me to the Fobosi District Accident article on HoloNet News. That Lott Dod image was from that article. I saw several other images from the old HoloNet News site on Wookieepedia (including the one for Hadocrassk) and did the same thing as it wrote there (except that I put to the Fobosi District article as its source) While its not in use anymore, isn't HoloNet News an official source?--Alex of Star Wars (talk) 19:53, August 17, 2019 (UTC)
 * HoloNet is an official source. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 19:54, August 17, 2019 (UTC)

Then if I took the image from there, why are you saying the sourcing and licensing are not right? The source is the link to the HoloNet News article on the Fobosi accident on Archive... site. And why is the licensing wrong? Is it not the right one? I looked on the other images from HoloNet News and they had the same licensing (example: YaruaDroid.jpg,AksMoeFuneral.jpg and AargauAccident-HNN.png. I don't want to trouble you too much with this but I honestly do not understand what is wrong. So please clear this up for me. I hope I am not asking too much.--Alex of Star Wars (talk) 20:08, August 17, 2019 (UTC)
 * The fact that you're asking me this question tells me you didn't read a single word on either Special:Upload or the warning that I've already issued to you. There's nothing more that I can or need to say to clarify this for you any further. I'd suggest going back and reading both of those items and following their instructions.

Death Star role
Hello there, im just adding source for Death Star role as carrier, which i add from reliable site that also include the firsthand sourcesAhendra (talk) 07:00, September 6, 2019 (UTC)
 * Wookieepedia thanks you for your contributions. Unfortunately, TheForce.net is not a reliable source. You need to cite your information to the firsthand sources themselves, which can be linked internally from article to article on Wookieepedia. These two pages may be of some help to you: Sourcing and Attribution. Thanks. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 00:28, September 6, 2019 (UTC)
 * after analyzing for while, i think it will be more adequate to change the role from Carrier to a space station as its more suitable with the source classification. seems the previous editor are arbritrarily inserting carrier classification although its not really fitting the role. what do you think?Ahendra (talk) 07:42, September 6, 2019 (UTC)
 * I really have no opinion. You're welcome to edit it as you believe is best according to the source material. Thanks. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 01:03, September 6, 2019 (UTC)

Star Wars: Armada
Hi there, you undid the external link for Gladiator-class SD Expansion Pack to the Armada wiki. Now I would like to know what's the problem with the link? If someone would like to learn more about this expansion or the game in general the game wiki is a good place. The wiki is fanmade sister of wookieepedia without commercial interests. Hoping to get an answer. Triangularer--Triangularer (talk) 07:55, September 9, 2019 (UTC) - The external link I added to the site didn't look different than any other such section I have seen on this wiki. - This wiki is a fanmade online encyclopedia about Star Wars. The Armada wiki is a fanmade online encyclopedia about a Star Wars game. Enough for me to see them as sister projects. But maybe you're a better and more worthy and pure Star Wars fan than just gamers? - The Armada wiki startet 4 years ago. I help there for 3 years, being a admin for a while now. We have a 3.000 visitors a week at the main page and Gladiator EP has 345. That's less, than here, but if you look for visitors at any of your Armada pages you'll find nothing at all. The attempt to promote the Armada wiki here would be a poor choice! - The Armada wiki provides 564 pages about the game, including all Expansions, rules, cards, and more. If you think it doesn't has to offer more than the maybe 20 pages about EPs here in the wiki than I would think your cursory scan wasn't much more than a look at the linked page.
 * Your edits were reverted primarily because they were of particularly low quality, lacking the basic formatting expected by Wookieepedia's Manual of Style and Layout Guide. As far as this Armada wiki itself, nothing becomes a "sister" of Wookieepedia unless the Wookieepedia community agrees to partner with a particular project. Just because you create a wiki and want to promote it through Wookieepedia doesn't mean we're automatically going to allow it to be presented in our articles. From a cursory scan of your project, it doesn't look like the Armada wiki offers much of anything outside of what Wookieepedia's articles are already featuring. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 16:42, September 9, 2019 (UTC)
 * I had to think about your post for a while. I didn't want to be unpolite and I'm not sure if it's worth a try. But there are several things in your answer, I want to give an answer.

I can accept that you don't want any poor looking links to other sides. But that you think a link to the wiki of a game at a page about that game isn't a good idea seems weird. The tone of your answer is quite arrogant. I won't argue here any longer. You don't need to answer, if you think it's pointless. I would only hope you think about your decision for second time. And hope is still a key concept in the universe we both love. Have a nice day! Triangularer--Triangularer (talk)

Legends categories
Why should articles be different between the "canon" and "legends" timelines while categories shouldn't ?

Has there been any decision made on this point ?

--Ldgdps (talk) 00:04, September 10, 2019 (UTC)
 * Wookieepedia has no official policy on this matter. However, there has been a general agreement among the community not to categorize in that manner, which is why it has been our practice up to this point not to do so. Therefore, it would not be the best approach to arbitrarily begin introducing split-continuity categorization. The more appropriate method would be to first introduce the idea in Wookieepedia's Senate Hall for larger community consideration and discussion. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 00:21, September 10, 2019 (UTC)

I'm having a look at the forum, this will be a good thing to do this wk.

And by the way as I'm quite new to Wookieepedia do you know where I could ask help to move pages bewteen the canon and legends ones ?

Crimson Command
What kind of speculation should that be? The name Crimson Command does not show up in the novel, nowhere. I searched all mentioned sources and the only two that uses the word combination Crimosn and Command is The Essential Atlas (but as the name Teradoc uses for his Warlord Empire in the Deep Core), The Essential Guide to Warfare (as the actual fleet) and the Despoilers of the Empire article on SW.com. Instead of just removing because it's unverified info, maybe take a look into the article version history, a fresh deep look into Darksaber and proof that I'm wrong. If you can't you should keep that Bts passage in the article. --Modgamers (talk) 08:19, September 10, 2019 (UTC)

Re: Talkheader
Tope, in all civility, you know me well enough to know I don't add talkheaders just for the sake of it. I've been here long enough to know not to do that. Granted, I usually don't add the talkheader AND the first message in one single edit, because experience has taught me that other editors often fail to notice said message in that case. Hence my often adding the talkheader and then the first message about a minute later. Now if that's so serious, I certainly won't do it again, but I'm sad that you automatically assume bad faith on my part AND then come here with a threatening message as if I were some kind of dangerous vandal. All the same, good day to you. -- Lelal Mekha  (Audience Room) 19:31, September 13, 2019 (UTC)

Re: Discussions block
Hi there, I understand. We deal with many reports and this one was no different - they have been spamming for days and one of the discussion moderators requested assistance. As VSTF, our guidelines always recommend a local block over a global block when the disruptive edits are only in one wiki, which was the case here - a gblock isn't appropriate.

Re: IRC
Hey. I do login to IRC on a semi-regular basis on weekdays between 06:00 and 15:00 UTC, although there are very few people present there at those times.

Cheers, QuiGonJinn  (Talk) 07:05, September 25, 2019 (UTC)
 * Hey Tope. I'm checking in regarding that thing we discussed on IRC. I've now gone over that SW.com new archive page to check how it styled the TCW comics. It seems like the majority of comic titles are actually spelled fully with italics: The Clone Wars: Discount, The Clone Wars: Departure, The Clone Wars: Transfer, The Clone Wars: The Dreams of General Grievous, The Clone Wars: Cold Snap, The Clone Wars: Neighbors, The Clone Wars: Shadowed, The Clone Wars: The Valley, The Clone Wars: Covetous, The Clone Wars: Curfew, The Clone Wars: The Ballad of Cham Syndulla, The Clone Wars: Invitation Only.
 * However, there are a few that are formatted differently, i.e.: The Clone Wars: Bait, The Clone Wars: Switch and our culprit–The Clone Wars: Headgames. Looking at the two lists, I believe that we can write the latter formatting off as negligence of the SW.com staff responsible for posting those news articles, and assume that all the comics were actually intended to be italicized.

 * Knowledge Bank Rules 1 and 11. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 17:38, November 20, 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for clearing that up! GeneralGrievous7 (talk) 03:25, November 21, 2019 (UTC)

R5-M2 changes
What's the reason for reverting to the previous version of the R5-M2 page? I would think another fairly large photo of the droid on the Empire set is a worthy addition. --JMM (talk) 15:54, November 21, 2019 (UTC)
 * The image you're attempting to add simply doesn't fit. The toy image talking about the droid's rusty plating specifically applies to the P/T section, which covers that information, so the image needs to stay in that section. Other than that, there's little value to arbitrarily sticking another image into the BTS section, particularly since it indents both the Appearances and Sources section headers, which is aesthetically unsightly. In this case, less is more. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 16:00, November 21, 2019 (UTC)

Re: Tense
Sorry about that, Top. Force of habit, I guess. I'll try to be better about this... though honestly, a threat to block from editing over something so minor seems a bit excessive to me. — Hunter Kahn  14:55, November 22, 2019 (UTC)

Adrian Edmondson
Hey Toprawa. I saw you added the Verify template to the Adrian Edmondson article. I know this one has been deleted before because of the template. I'm not really sure why the template was added, since there are currently five citations about his presence in the film; that doesn't include The Last Jedi itself, which could conceivably be a source since he's in the credits. (I had sought some guidance from the admin who deleted it last time and he suggested it might be because the citations weren't using the proper citation template, which I've done this time around.) Can you tell me what should be added to the article to provide the additional verification necessary? Or is there something else I'm missing about the article as it stands right now? — Hunter Kahn  04:48, November 30, 2019 (UTC)
 * For starters, have you read the text on the template? It explains in bold lettering exactly what a real-world/out-of-universe (OOU) article of this sort needs. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 15:58, November 30, 2019 (UTC)
 * It says "reliable sources", of which there are five, and it says "Bibliography or External links section", of which it has the latter. So I assume you agree with me that the Verify template is unnecessary? — Hunter Kahn  18:28, November 30, 2019 (UTC)
 * Incorrect. The Bibliography and/or External links sections are what need to contain the "reliable sources." These sections work the same in OOU articles as the Appearances/Sources work in in-universe (IU) articles. In accordance with the Layout Guide, no IU article would ever be allowed to stand without an Appearances and/or Sources section; likewise, rarely should an OOU article ever exist without a Bibliography and/or External links section. If Adrian Edmondson is listed in the credits of The Last Jedi, then that film is what needs to be listed in the Bibliography section as an officially-licensed source, and that is the only reliable source that needs to be listed in that article. None of these other unofficial third-party websites like PopSugar need to be used to cite information if that information also comes from an officially-licensed source such as the film itself. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 19:10, November 30, 2019 (UTC)
 * I remain a bit confused, because both you and the Verification tag have said this requires a Bibliography or an External Links section, and this article already had an External links section. But I appreciate you directing me to the appropriate policies and your continued feedback on the matter. I have added a Bibliography section listing The Last Jedi, per your statement above, since he is in the credits of that film. Does this satisfy your concerns with the article? — Hunter Kahn  19:32, November 30, 2019 (UTC)
 * What you don't seem to be understanding is that an OOU article needs to have a Bibliography and/or External links section populated by reliable sources. This is what the template is saying. Consequently, Wikipedia and the Internet Movie Database, while helpful when listed in a Wookieepedia article, are not considered reliable sources. This means that an OOU article on Wookieepedia should never be considered properly referenced if created while only listing Wikipedia and/or IMDb links. To answer your question, since you added a proper Bibliography section to the article, the Verification tag no longer needs to be there. However, I will reiterate that your long reference list of unofficial third-party websites are unnecessary and should just be removed. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 19:43, November 30, 2019 (UTC)
 * Great. Thanks. — Hunter Kahn  19:47, November 30, 2019 (UTC)
 * You're welcome. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 19:49, November 30, 2019 (UTC)

Gekko
The actor states that the name "Gekko" was on his makeup trailer's door during production. Isn't that sufficient enough to confirm a character's name? Shayanomer 19:20, November 30, 2019 (UTC)
 * How do we know that Lucasfilm is in any way treating that as an official name, unless and until they explicitly confirm such information? That could have been some kind of inside joke among the production crew, for all we know. This is why we wait for information to come out of official channels. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 19:26, November 30, 2019 (UTC)
 * Well that's too bad, I had a full page written out for him. Should we add least add the uncredited actor to the episode pages? Shayanomer  19:29, November 30, 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, it would still be fair to add the actor's name to the cast list, accompanied by that same interview. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 19:31, November 30, 2019 (UTC)

Faddera Rabar in the Mandalorian
Another thing I'm curious about, Faddera Rabar is seen in the ice planet bar in the Mandalorian's first episode, wearing the same outfit as the one in Solo except with a bandana this time. We know that other characters from the film also made their return, namely Auromae Iselo, Chussido and Saucer Head. Can we add Rabar's appearance to the respective pages? Shayanomer 20:04, November 30, 2019 (UTC)
 * Good rule of thumb in any circumstance: Assume nothing to be true unless Lucasfilm explicitly confirms it. You'll never get into trouble that way. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 20:10, November 30, 2019 (UTC)

Signature
Hi there, sorry about the violation. I've changed everything and revised my signature. Thanks for not striking my name out and giving me time to make the changes. Kind regards  Tomotron   (talk)  02:21, December 17, 2019 (UTC)

Audio quotes?
Are audio quotes still requested in CANs, GANs and FANs? Just something I want to consider when I choose what to nominate. Ben sc01t (talk) 16:52, December 17, 2019 (UTC)
 * They are optional for all articles. You're encouraged to upload them if you feel like going that extra mile. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 16:57, December 17, 2019 (UTC)
 * Ok thanks. Ben sc01t (talk) 17:23, December 17, 2019 (UTC)

Signature issue
So, I tried to correct the issue with my signature on the contest votes after you pointed out the issue with it, but it seems that some of those edits got reverted (probably accidentally) and some of my votes got struck after that. Not asking for those votes back necessarily, but just pointing out that it happened. --   Commander Awesome  (Talk) 09:55, December 19, 2019 (UTC)

Oh! Sorry! I didn't know about that, I'll go fix that. My bad. --Supreme Commander Raxus (talk) 19:35, December 19, 2019 (UTC)
