User talk:MadMarek

Archive

Greetings, and welcome to my talk page. I welcome users of all walks, the light or the darkness, my great repository of wisdom is at your disposal. Please remember, if you post a comment or question here, please look for my response here, and please also remember to sign your posts/questions, thank you.

Signature and Talkpage
Hey. Out site has specific policies on changing the signature, which can be found here. Make sure you follow those guidelines, because we can't have you using massive images in your signature, as that will ruin the talk pages. If you want to see an example of a signature, see here. The formatting of it can give you an idea of where to start. As for personalizing talkpages, we generally do not change them too much, besides adding a header or something to start the page off. If you want to personalize something, I suggest doing it on your user page, as long as you follow these guidelines. Hope that helps, 501st  dogma ( talk ) 22:42, November 14, 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Already worked on my signature, I hope this works.-- MadMarek  - "Not really crazy. It's just a motto" 09:19, November 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * WP:SIG says that your signature has to include a link back to you user page. Therefore, don't forget to add that. Fe Nite (talk) 15:27, November 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the reminder Fe Nite, that completely sliped my mind!--  MadMarek  (talk) - "Not really crazy. Its just a motto."  13:39, November 16, 2013 (UTC)

Two warnings
&mdash;MJ&mdash; Council Chambers 22:42, November 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * Please do not remove messages from talk pages, including your own. All messages are part of the public record and must remain visible. If you do not want a message to remain on your talk page, you may archive it on a subpage of this page provided that a link to the archive page is placed at the top of this page. Thank you for your cooperation.
 * While all good-faith contributions to Wookieepedia are appreciated, we ask that you please refer to Images, which can be found under the "other policies and guidelines" link in your welcome message, and familiarize yourself with the sourcing and licensing requirements before uploading any more images. The only uploading method supported by Wookieepedia, Special:Upload, will prompt you to enter this information. Wikia's non-standard upload forms are not supported under Wookieepedia policy, and ignorance of the uploading rules is not an acceptable excuse. Continued violation of the image policy or falsification of any information in an upload description are considered vandalism and will likely result in a block. Thank you.
 * Thank you Master Jonathan, at first I didn't really get the image uploading process, I've just had a indepth read of the policy you linked, and I will be sure to comply with it next time. And about the talk page, could you please tell me how to create an archive for my talk page.--  MadMarek  (talk) - "Not really crazy. Its just a motto."  13:46, November 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * For archiving talk pages, you may create a subpage of your talk page, i.e. User talk:MadMarek/Archive1. Also, please note that this image that you uploaded still requires proper licensing information. If sourcing is not provided, it will be deleted within the next few days. Please become familiar with WP:I (which Master Jonathan has already linked for you) and ask questions if you get confused.  CC7567  (talk) 22:43, November 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * Thank you for reminding me again, (and for that on talk page archives), but I'm still not sure how to license or source that image. How is it done, in a simple explanation please.--Alliance Starbird.svg  MadMarek  (talk) -  "Not really crazy. Its just a motto."  10:54, November 18, 2013 (UTC)
 * Assuming that you are using Special:Upload, which is the only upload form supported by Wookieepedia policy, you will presented with a box for entering the source and a drop-down menu for selecting the appropriate license, and you will be unable to submit the file for upload until that has been completed. If you are attempting to use any other upload forms, such as the pop-up ones, then the only instruction you'll get is "use Special:Upload instead" because we do not support any other form. &mdash;MJ&mdash; Holocomm 21:00, November 18, 2013 (UTC)
 * O damn! I thought that little box with the drop-down menu had something to do with it, I really should pay more attention. I tried license it but I couldn't find that menu again, so I thought, just delete (or get someone with authority to delete) 150px and I'll re-upload with the correct licensing.--Alliance Starbird.svg  MadMarek  (talk) -  "Not really crazy. Its just a motto."  17:59, November 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * No problem. I've deleted the image for you. &mdash;MJ&mdash; Comlink 23:20, November 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks a lot, I'll see to the rest.
 * P.S.-Just re-uploaded that image, did I do it correctly?--Redstarbird.svg  MadMarek  (Force Box) -  "We speak, we learn, thats what we're for"  16:07, November 20, 2013 (UTC)
 * No, because you're still using an unsupported form, and as a result you have not provided a description or a source for the image. Please go to http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Upload and use the guided form there, as it will prompt you for the correct information. Also, is there a specific article that you intend to use this image on? If not, please be aware that you are not permitted to upload images solely for use on your user page until you meet the requirements to vote on all site processes, per the user image policy. &mdash;MJ&mdash; Jedi Council Chambers 20:18, November 20, 2013 (UTC)
 * Aww, I see. I'm sure there is solution. Thank you for your time.--Redstarbird.svg  MadMarek  (Force Box) -  "We speak, we learn, thats what we're for"  16:21, November 21, 2013 (UTC)

Re:Image
Hey, MadMarek. You need to be more precise when sourcing. The image in general is from Return of the Jedi, not from some website. Also, be sure to crop the image before uploading. Per WP:I, letterboxes need to be removed. Thanks,  JangFett  (Talk) 16:47, December 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * Since you already have an archive, all you need to do is take everything in this talk page and dump it in there.  JangFett  (Talk) 18:06, December 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * I've already answered that: "take everything in this talk page and dump it in there". That means cut, not copy, the messages and paste them in your archive.  JangFett  (Talk) 13:33, December 23, 2013 (UTC)

Edu Corps
The EduCorps is a group of people who review the CAN page, and maintain it. Our votes count more towards passing a nomination, and we are responsible for archiving passed nominations and reviewing passed nominations that have problems. Hope that helps, 501st  dogma ( talk ) 14:50, December 24, 2013 (UTC)
 * Regarding your question in Dogma's talk page about the ACorps (sorry Dogma to butt in :P). The Agricultural Corps is much like the EduCorps (explained above), except the ACs are meant to review the GAN page, though they may also review CANs with the same authority as an EC. The ACs' name is based on the actual in-universe Agricultural Corps, a Jedi Order's organization ;). Also, dogma is actually a member of the ECs, not ACs. Winterz (talk) 15:19, December 24, 2013 (UTC)
