Vance Rarkin
Hi. Why did you delete the Vance Rarkin page? He is the confirmed new villain.

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)

1000 BBY/Canon
Why was 1000 BBY/Canon deleted?
 * I see no reason to repeat an answer that can already be found simply by looking at the deletion summary on that page. You can read it as well as I can. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 17:30, July 16, 2019 (UTC)
 * The reasoning was not listed. GeneralGrievous7 (talk) 17:44, July 16, 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, in fact, it was. And is still indicated in the summary on that page and in the deletion log. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 17:54, July 16, 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)
 * Will do. Thanks. -  JMAS  Jolly Trooper.png Hey, it's me! 00:19, July 18, 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.

Potential character addition
For the page about SW 8: Outlander 2, should the character list include the Trandoshan in the diner from page 8, and Jabba's green-haired slave girl from page 15? --Blockade3 (talk) 10:43, August 23, 2019 (UTC)

Re Yuuzhan Vong
Hey Toprawa. I was actually thinking the eras on Yuuzhan Vong looked wrong, but I added the rest since nobody seemed to be objecting to the others. I was tempted to take them off, though. OtterSurf (talk) 20:55, August 23, 2019 (UTC)
