Article tense
I noticed your question on Sentry's talk page about the tense of the Ord Mynock article. I thought I'd get a jump on answering that for you. All articles that are In-Universe are written in past tense. The reason for this is, the opening of every Star Wars film begins with A long time ago... in a galaxy far, far away. Since it happed a long time ago, all articles should be in the past tense. Hope that helps. - JMAS 21:47, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Image uploads
I advise you to list specific sources on your recent uploads or they will all be deleted. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 01:47, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

RE: Image
That image was marked for deletion because it was a lower quality duplicate of File:Legacy 1 Broken 063.jpg. It didn't provide a better angle, as it only cut off part of Talon's body, and was a lower quality scan so we only keep the higher quality image :-).  Grunny  ( Talk ) 15:57, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

BB-23
You recently created BB-23. Is it referred to by that name, or as Merr-Sonn BB-23 heavy blaster cannon in the campaign guide (I believe that was the source)?  Chack Jadson  (Talk) 22:03, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok, because then it should be under Merr-Sonn BB-23 heavy blaster cannon. Thanks.  Chack Jadson  (Talk) 22:14, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

Squib battering ram
Hi, Omicron! I noticed that you added the book Scum and Villainy to the list of sources for the Squib battering ram. I'm having trouble finding it; could you give me some help? What page is it on? Or at least what chapter? Thanks for your time! ~ SavageBob 03:02, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
 * page 52, with the stats being in table 2-7:ranged weapons on page 51, chapter 11 "Outlaw Tech" - Omicron 15:03, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Cool, thanks for the help! ~ SavageBob 15:29, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

?
Well thanks for taking the time to answer my question... but i dont really see how your answer pertains to the question. Utahraptor 266

New articles
Please make sure that you follow the Manual of Style and Layout Guide when creating new articles. There were many issues regarding proper formatting with Intelligence (Bureau), an article you created. Please go back and format it properly according to the two policies I linked to above. Thanks, Nayayen (talk) 21:13, December 5, 2009 (UTC)

SWAJ14
Hi Omicron. Do you have a scanner? I see that you list Star Wars Adventure Journal 14 as part of your collection. I'm seeking part of the article Alien Encounters that relates to the Jiivahar. Please let me know if you are able to help. --Eyrezer 13:46, March 28, 2010 (UTC)

The Unknown Regions
I noticed that you have been adding appearances to the article about The Unknown Regions. Do you have the book? Is there a picture of Vagaari?--Dionne Jinn (Something to say?) 16:04, April 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, I just got the book yesterday. There is an image in the Vagaari section of the book.  I can get it scanned next week.++Omicron 16:07, April 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Great! I have to wait for my copy of the book for a while and I don't have a scanner. But if you could scan that picture, it would be a great help.--Dionne Jinn (Something to say?) 16:09, April 24, 2010 (UTC)

Hey, Omicron! If you're still able to scan images from The Unknown Regions, could you upload the picture on p. 80 of the Squib meeting the Chiss? I have the book, but don't have a scanner. :( Thanks! ~ SavageBob 05:49, May 7, 2010 (UTC) <-Omicron 04:45, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * You're in luck, just bought myself a scanner for my home :) I'll get that picture scanned asap. <-Omicron 14:17, May 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * here's the image you're looking for
 * Thanks a ton! I'll add it to the Squib article soon. :) ~ SavageBob 05:09, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * I noticed that the right part of the image seems to have been cut off. Do you know what happened? ~ SavageBob 05:47, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * I rescanned it, should be more complete now. <-Omicron 15:24, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah, thanks! Looks good. :) ~ SavageBob 17:15, May 8, 2010 (UTC)

I have a question regarding the Killik image found in TUR. Is it labeled in the book as simply being a Killik, or is it specifically mentioned as being Killik Twilight? Thanks. -  JMAS  Jolly Trooper.png Hey, it's me! 14:53, May 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * If you're referring to the picture in the Killik species entry, it is simply titled "A Killik" although it does look like the painting is described <-Omicron 16:15, May 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, I have another question for ya. I don't have the book yet, but I've come across an image marked as being from it. It shows a blue-skinned female holding a blaster, leaning back against a bar, with what looks like an Aqualish bartender behind the bar. I'm assuming the female is Chiss, but the eyes aren't visibly red. Is such an image in TUR, and if so, what is it labeled as? Thanks in advance. -  JMAS  Jolly Trooper.png Hey, it's me! 18:35, May 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's from the Chiss species page, and it's titled "A Chiss scoundrel". It's on page 124. I can scan it or give you more details if you want. <-Omicron 19:37, May 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * I've got it, thanks. I just didn't want to upload it and label it a Chiss, when I couldn't be certain. Thanks again. -  JMAS  Jolly Trooper.png Hey, it's me! 19:42, May 28, 2010 (UTC)

Drexl-class starfighter CAN
The intro and infobox of an article are short summaries of the entire thing, so yes, it does need to be stated in the body. Yes, it is redundant, but that's what a summary does. BTW, was "roomy" in the source? SoresuMakashi ( Everything I tell you is a lie the truth  ) 08:59, September 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * Please watch your linking. For example, the intro should have a link to starfighter, the body to starfighter and cockpit, kilograms, and days. You also link twice to things like the Preybird-class. There are more, which I will let you find yourself. Also, you're missing punctuation at the end of the youmay template. SoresuMakashi ( Everything I tell you is a lie  the truth  ) 04:56, September 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Linking is much better. Only one left that I can spot: Star Wars Gamer is linked twice. Anyway, there are more objections that I put on the nomination page. SoresuMakashi ( Everything I tell you is a lie  the truth  ) 07:39, September 27, 2010 (UTC)

I appreciate you catching my error. Thanks for the help.--Exiledjedi 15:18, December 15, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Upload file
what do you consider an official source? I made this picture today by myself taking great care of the current images and references already on the page. EmjeR 03:26, December 21, 2010 (UTC)

Images
Hey, when you spot an image without the required facts, feel free to tag it for deletion straight away&mdash;no need for Verify templates and such. 1358 (Talk)  20:07, December 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * However, File:Experimental jedi armor by imzadialpha-d3292al.jpg may have been a user image. I have reverted your deletion tag and queried the user who uploaded it. Graestan ( Talk ) 16:33, January 17, 2011 (UTC)

Hi, I'm new here, and I noticed that you managed to get the picture of Cade, Jariah and Deliah into a text-box looking thing on the Jariah Syn's blaster page. I was wondering how you were able to do that. Cuyvaldar123946 22:02, January 17, 2011 (UTC)cuyvaldar123946

Jet juice
Hi Omicron! Could you give me the entry of Jet juice from the second and third edition of AGTTSWU? Darth Morrt 23:08, February 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Darth Morrt 07:19, February 13, 2011 (UTC)

How can all of that be unverified info?
I noticed you have been removing a lot of supposedly unverified info. Why did you remove the Latin references on some of the Star Destroyer classes and their larger brethren? That is to my knowledge the naming convention for Republic and later Imperial Star Destroyer classes and their larger brethren. Zeta1127 of the 89th Legion (talk) 20:36, February 14, 2011 (UTC)

Re: Jizz edits
Oh, so it was named after semen then, right? You must be smart.

...

Come on, man. Common sense. It doesn't need any proof or source. JIZZ (I try not to giggle when I say it). That's one letter away from JAZZ. One can completely logically say 100% that this was based off of jazz. You don't need 'proof' for that. That's like saying the sky most likely isn't blue at all because God hasn't said it was.

Think man, think. If it wasn't based off of jazz, what else could it be from? --Thesaurus Rex 01:13, February 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * as I posted on your talk page, the policy on this wiki says unless we have a source, we can't speculate on the origin of a name. That's the rule here. You may also want to read this<- Omicron (Leave a message at the BEEP! ) 01:16, February 16, 2011 (UTC)

I'm not trying to attack you. I just want you to stop. However I'm kinda getting peeved at all this uptight illogical crap going on here. Again, not directed at you (Oh HEAVENS no, that would be awful!), this is just a personal statement.

Just stop decimating the wiki...please? Thesaurus Rex 01:39, February 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * sigh, I'm not "decimating" this wiki. I am doing my best to improve it based on the rules and policies of the wiki. I am sorry you don't agree, but I am following the procedures here to increase the accuracy of articles.<- Omicron (Leave a message at the BEEP! ) 01:44, February 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * Well, I realized now that you don't agree yourself...but you know, just because the policy says not to post unverified info doesn't necessarily mean they'll get you for NOT removing things...>.> Thesaurus Rex 01:52, February 16, 2011 (UTC)

My edit isn't vandalism. Why did you revert it? You have been blocked by the owner of this video. 20:18, February 21, 2011 (UTC)

Did you delete my edit on uteen??

X-wing R
Hi, You recently removed the T-65 R from the listing on X-wing starfighter stating it to be fanon. Well, it is not, as it's explicitly mentioned in The New Essential Guide to Vehicles and Vessels (near the end of the X-W article) and in Isard's Revenge. The basic distinction between it and the T-65 BR (from the Black Fleet Crisis series and Cracken's Threat Dossier) is that it lacks all weapons. Therefore I'll be re-inserting it to the article. NLoriel 09:10, March 9, 2011 (UTC)

Space gunship TC
I marked the TC thread for CSD and removed the TC tag from the article. The stupid episode guide does call it a "space gunship" way down at the bottom. I didn't scrolled down far enough when I looked before I TC'd it. Just letting you know, as you also voted. -  JMAS  Jolly Trooper.png Hey, it's me! 15:55, March 14, 2011 (UTC)

Mofference
Hey, I'd like to invite you to the upcoming Mofference. You're really becoming a leader on the site and your input would be extremely welcome. Graestan ( Talk ) 01:54, March 15, 2011 (UTC)

IRC
Hey Omicron, I saw your conversation last night and that you complained about the fact that the nick Omicron is registered. In fact, per freenode policy, you can go to the channel #freenode and ask for that nick to be dropped, as it has been unused for over 60 days, which is the inactivity limit. However, it might be that you have to wait a few days in order to get it, but perhaps it's worth the effort. Thought I'd just give you a heads up. :) Cheers, 1358  (Talk)  14:10, March 16, 2011 (UTC) If you run into troubles, feel free to drop me a message/find me on IRC, or join #freenode; there's a bunch of helpful users there. Cheers,  1358  (Talk)  14:57, March 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * Here's a quick tutorial:
 * Go to #freenode and change your nick to Omicron (/nick Omicron).
 * Ask something like "Can a staffer drop this nick?". Several active non-staffers will probably reply "please wait".
 * When a staff member says "dropped", you will have to group the nick to your account. You will have to be logged into your current account in order to do that. Just type /msg nickserv group. NickServ will reply something like "Omicron is now registered to your account."
 * If you want to use the nick Omicron as your account name rather than just a nick, use /msg nickserv help set accountname for help.
 * If you do that, the login command will be /msg nickserv identify Omicron yourpassword.
 * Also, NickServ will probably warn you when you switch your nick to a registered one (the first step above), but you can ignore it. 1358  (Talk)  15:01, March 16, 2011 (UTC)
