Confused over article deletion
I recently wrote an article about Voice of the Republic, a Star Wars podcast that is hosted by someone that has created official Star Wars content. It was deleted for some reason and I am not sure why.
 * As far as I could tell, the podcast fails the Notability of fan projects policy. The fact that its host has created official Star Wars content has no bearing on its notability. If you can demonstrate notability per the criteria noted in the policy, I would be more than happy to restore the article. --Imperialles 03:55, April 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * While I don't have access to official numbers only being a fan, it is my understanding that they received hundreds of downloads a month. Also, the fact that it is a project from someone who is part of the Star Wars family has much bearing in my opinion.  If someone takes the time to look up an artist that has worked on Star Wars projects, I'm sure they would be very interested in knowing they also product a podcast about Star Wars.Crwatkins 21:45, April 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * And why does that information need to be in a separate article? --Imperialles 22:12, April 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * I would assume the same reason Forcecast has a separate article from theforce.net. Also, while Voice of the Republic does include Joel Carroll, it is not his project alone.  It is also something separate from his other work.  That would be like saying "Why do each of Karen Traviss' books need a separate article?  Just put them all in her main article." --Crwatkins 22:29, April 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * Each of Karen Traviss's books are official publications, so your argument is moot. When it comes to fan projects, notability must be proven on a case-by-case basis (per our policy), something the creators of the ForceCast article apparently have managed. Present proof and you can have your article. Until then, I must insist that policy be upheld. --Imperialles 22:35, April 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * I thought that I made the point of notability with the fact that it is a widely downloaded podcast with an international fanbase that is co-hosted by someone that has created official Star Wars content. I only mentioned Forcecast because you asked why there should be a separate article from Joel's article.  The point being that while they are related, they are two separate things.  And again the same reason I mentioned an author.  While they are one person, they have multiple projects each with their own article. --Crwatkins 22:44, April 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * I understand your argumentation. The issue is that Wookieepedia policy differs between official content (such as the aforementioned books) and fan-created content. If you can prove that the podcast satisfies any of the recognition criteria of the fan projects policy, then feel free to recreate the article. It is going to take a solid, verifiable source, however. --Imperialles 22:50, April 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * So if I contact one of the show's creators and could produce a source to verify that they have an average monthly download rate in the multiple hundreds, you allow me to recreate the article... even though it is a product of someone that already is notable enough to have their own article. Would this would make them as notable to Star Wars fans as Unidentified Rodian with jacket? --Crwatkins 22:57, April 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * The existence of article A is not a valid argument for the existence of article B. As for the Rodian, he appears in an official product, and is thus far more notable than the podcast. Scrounge up the evidence, and we'll hold a vote. --Imperialles 23:06, April 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * It wasn't an argument, it was a question. So I again ask, could produce a source to verify that they have an average monthly download rate in the multiple hundreds, would that typically be sufficient enough evidence to allow me to recreate the article? I really don't feel like doing even more work only to have it all wiped away again or not matter. --Crwatkins 23:13, April 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * I am uncertain if "hundreds of downloads" qualifies as "widespread recognition in Star Wars fandom". Feel free to produce the evidence, but it is by no means a guarantee that the article will remain. --Imperialles 23:19, April 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * I contacted one of the hosts the show and he gave me some screen captures of the show's weekly downloads recently. Turns out my conservative estimate was more conservative than I thought. It seems they usually have over 1000 unique downloads during any given 4 week period.  If you like I can send you these screen caps.  Just let me know where you would like them sent to. -- Crwatkins 22:52, April 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I am still waiting for a response as to how you would like me to get you this information. --Crwatkins 01:56, April 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Feel free to upload them to any hosting site. --Imperialles 13:23, April 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * I have recreated the Voice of the Republic article as was discussed in the email, but it still is getting marked for notability. Could you please remove this or take some sort of steps to resolve this issue?--Crwatkins 03:36, April 20, 2010 (UTC)

List of future comics
Why did you delete it? It wasn't a category, it was a list of upcoming comics by release date, similar to the List of Future Novels. I couldn't find a list by release date, so I made one. Where's the one I apparently missed?
 * I deleted it because it's superfluous. We already have Category:Future comics. --Imperialles 16:39, April 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, but you also have both a Category:Future books, which is just an alphabetical list, and a List_of_future_books, which is ordered by release date. I was just adding the ladder for comics. vandaronas 16:51, April 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * Decent point. I'll restore your list for now. --Imperialles 16:53, April 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I'll keep it up to date as well, if that helps. And sorry about all the edits... I messed up the links above a couple times. vandaronas 16:57, April 16, 2010 (UTC)

The Old Republic Issue 1
Just noticed that you deleted the page that I created for issue 1. It redirected me to a page for the whole of Act 1, Threat of Peace. However, that webcomic is being released in monthly form starting this summer. Act 1 Threat of Peace is being released over three monthlies. I was going to add it to the List of future comics, to keep it up to date as I said I would. I figured, since it's a separate release, it deserved it's own page. Maybe not? Thanks. vandaronas 13:34, April 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * My bad. I suspect we're going to have to revisit the organization of all those articles at some point, but I have restored your article for now. --Imperialles 13:36, April 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, you're probably right about that. For now, thanks! vandaronas 14:01, April 17, 2010 (UTC)

Rawk and Jorak Uln
Hi, Imperialles, I see you took the Inuse tags off both articles. OK, but I still plan to nominate both articles, just to let you know.--Jedi Kasra (comlink) 13:55, April 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * That's fine. --Imperialles 13:56, April 17, 2010 (UTC)

"BOBAFETT1 DEMANDS DELETION"
Maybe I need to be a little less pushy, but I wasn't demanding it per se. And isn't there a way to block people from creating it if it's already been created and deleted 3 times?&mdash; BobaFett1 Bounties collected  20:22, April 17, 2010 (UTC)

WHY?
Why are my articles about the Jebble box war being deleted? These events did occur and were referenced in Star Wars Dark Times 11: Vector, Part 5. Nico Fett 18:17, April 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * No longer deleted. --Imperialles 18:18, April 20, 2010 (UTC)

Objection to Arana
Before you strike your objection, I'd ike to tel you that I added it in the BTS, and it gives a tag saying it was drawn by Joe Corroney and was in the article Republic HoloNet News Special Inaugural Edition 16:5:24. I wanted to know if this was OK.--Jedi Kasra (comlink) 19:17, April 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * That's fine. Just keep in mind that images have to support text. --Imperialles 19:26, April 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, will do.--Jedi Kasra (comlink) 19:29, April 20, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Piett
Thanks very much for that Imp. Cheers. Thefourdotelipsis 00:41, April 21, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Archiving
My apologies; I got caught up in doing something else and completely forgot. I'll make sure not to make the same mistake in the future. Thanks for reminding me, I'll get on that right now. Jonjedigrandmaster  ( We seed the stars ) 22:43, April 24, 2010 (UTC)

Mistaken Image Tagging
My apologies. My assumption was that because Imperial Knights was not itself contained within a "Gray Jedi" category, that it would require an extra tag. I wanted to be thorough, then started to think I had gotten myself into trouble when I realized how dang many Imperial Knights images there were. Is there a better way to have Imp Knight images appear in a "Images of Gray Jedi" category? Should I revert the tags I put on the Jensaarai and Jolee Bindo images as well, or are you already handling that with your rollback? Sorry again. &mdash;fodigg  (talk) | 19:09, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Wow, so I could have created that page simply by making Jensaarai, Imperial Knights, and Jolee Bindo categories into sub-cats. That's really embarrassing. Apologies for creating so much work, especially for you. &mdash;fodigg  BlackRebelStarbird.png (talk) | 19:14, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, regardless, thanks for setting me straight and helping me undo my mess. &mdash;fodigg  BlackRebelStarbird.png (talk) | 19:17, April 27, 2010 (UTC)

From The Greel Wood Haven
"Major [Adazian] Liebke served in the Dnalvec Militia during the Houk-Weequay conflicts on Sriluur. During that time he became a dark wolf handler. Dark wolves are fierce nocturnal creatures indigenous to Sriluur. After the Houk-Weequay conflicts ended, the Empire entered Dnalvec and established a permanent presence in the form of a garrison along the Copper Coast and in the industrial capital Meirm. Resenting the Imperial occupation of the very territories his companions had died protecting against the Houk forces, Adazian packed his belongings, secured his best pack of dark wolves, left an offering at the Obsidian Shrine and defected to the Alliance." - Lord Hydronium 23:50, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
