My Zekka Thyne featured page nomination
Hey, my name's Colin. I've been working very hard on the Zekka Thyne page for a featured article nomination, and as of right now, I've added all the pics and info I can get my hands on, read and reported on all the material the character is featured in, and addressed almost every concern that's been voiced.

The only thing that hasn't been addressed is that the article is lacking specific information about the Star Wars Galaxies missions Zekka assigns. Unfortunately, I can't find that information anywhere online, and since I haven't had a SWG account in years, I can't log on and find it myself. I'm hoping somebody will add that eventually, but in the grand scheme of things, I think it's pretty minor information, and would argue it shouldn't hold up its nomination.

I've been told the nomination has potential but doesn't have the votes, and that I should ask some people to review it for me. (I haven't actively asked people yet; I've never really gone through this process before.) I was hoping maybe you'd take a look at it and see if it's worthy of a vote from you? Or give me any further suggestions? I'd really appreciate it!

Thanks!

Jawas: Bad or Good?
Hey, I'm doing a project on a satirical wiki and was wondering if you could briefly shed some light on whether or not Jawas are bad or good? I'm a fan of star wars but unfortunately am unable to remember... --GlennBecksATool 16:31, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I can't talk to you. I find your username offensive. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 16:34, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

Gee, sorry I've offended you. Thanks anyway. --GlennBecksATool 17:02, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for adding an images to my new article.--Windu223 23:05, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Recetn vandal
Isn't it time someone did a usercheck on this guy? I would, but whenever I use the one on the block template, it shows the site in a foreign language. -- SFH 23:17, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Kitchen
Hullo. Recently, I brought up a thread that asked some general SW questions, and it has come to a point where I and DarthMRN were wondering whether there should be an article on kitchen. I, personally, would like you opinion on the matter, as you've had more experience in this sort of thing. Here is the link. Just look a little above the confusing numerical list. Thank you for your time. - Solus (Bird of Prey)  01:40, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

Nominated
Imagine! It's the 13th of 30 days, and Darth Culator is still far ahead of the competition in the Wookieepedian of the Month honors for July. Let's rally out a win for Culator. Remember what he's done for us. Maybe locked some pages, maybe he overadministrated, but he put an end to Quinlanfan's march. That's just one of many things. Whoever nominated Culator should be Wookieepedian of the Month for August. Jediknight19bby 20:37, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

New GA pic
I am thrilled that you put that art up on the Wookieepedia. Could you possibily help me out? I would like the "main" center Scythe portion of the pic to be cropped so that we can make that the main picture for the Scythe page. Same for the main CF9 Crossfire. Can you help with this? As many will attest, my computer related skills are not exactly impressive. :-) AdmiralNick22 14:17, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Can you crop the CF9 Crossfire pic from Legacy #13 for use in the CF9 article? Also, it appears that the main scan of the GA fleet in formation from #13 is of poor quality. If you look closely, it is clear that it was scanned in two parts. It is a bit "uneven" near the plant and the '"Scythe'' is two toned. Can you replace the current one with the clearer version you put up in the first place? AdmiralNick22 01:13, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Question regarding Open Proxy/Zombie Computer
Hey. I've got a quick question about Open Proxies and Zombie Computers. What are they and what do they do? If you don't know, that's OK.

&mdash;P.S.: Doesn't the thought of a "Zombie" Computer cReEp YoU oUt? --

Inq
Hey Darth Culator. I was wondering, if you get a few spare moments, could you take a look over Dace Diath and let me know if there's anything that you think needs to be done? Thanks for your time. Cheers, Greyman ( Paratus ) 05:09, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

SuperSaiyaMan
SuperSaiyaMan has contacted me via IM with some concerns over his treatment by you. I've been out of the loop on Wookieepedia issues for a few months, so I obviously have not been privy to his actions here. Can you fill me in? He seems to believe that you were harassing him and banned him when he tried to call attention to it. In reviewing the discussion on his former talk page, the way in which he was treated by you (name calling, provoking) doesn't seem to be mature or responsible for an administrator. Can you bring me up to speed? Thanks. -- SparqMan  Talk 16:42, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
 * It's quite simple. He tried inserting his personal bias into a biographical article. The article consists of "this is who this person is, this is what his position is." At no point does "and this is why he's wrong" enter into the valid contents of a biographical article.
 * I then semi-protected this article and several related articles, seeing them as fertile ground for trolls.
 * After doing some research, I determined that this newly-registered "SuperSaiyaMan" is a known troll with an anti-Star Wars bias.
 * He refused to drop the issue, and made it abundantly clear that he had no intention of contributing usefully. When he saw that I was the primary impediment to his attempts to soil Wookieepedia, he began to harass users who were completely uninvolved with his dispute.
 * That was the point at which I blocked him. He's a troll, plain and simple. I had to block him on AIM because he tried harassing me there, so I suggest you do the same. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 16:55, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

My User Page
Darth Culator, could I please have my userpage back? I promise you, for the first month, I will not touch it. I hope, by the end of the year, that 80% of my edits will be to the main section. I check my editcount every day. Jediknight19bby 15:18, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I won't let you down. I will use the power to control my user page with great caution, hardly using it. I guess it was like a Jundland Wastes Sandbox to me, but, now that I know how to do everything, I don't need to use it as much. Jediknight19bby 18:55, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Subst

 * If the template is subst'ed, it can't be changed in the future without going through each and every page to fix it. jSarek 01:13, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
 * It's not meant to be fancy. It's a pointless piece of crap because it's meant to be a pointless piece of crap. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 01:16, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Sourcing
Hey Darth Culator, I was wondering if you had a source for this statement:

"George Lucas has stated that Luke has the same Force potential as his father, which is why both Darth Vader and the Emperor were willing to turn on each other to gain Luke as their apprentice. Luke is said to represent Anakin's full potential, if Anakin had lived to achieve it rather than suffer the horrible fate that made him more machine than man. Lucas further measures that Luke's Force potential was twice as powerful as Emperor Palpatine."

- From Luke Skywalker's article

If you do, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks. -- Jaina Solo  ( Talk ) 16:21, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Congratulations Lord Culator, you earned it several times over. Joker1138 ( Mandalore ) 15:26, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Image protection
Can you protect Image:Boba Fett NEGTC2.jpg please? Redemption continues to revert the image to the higher res scan that he uploaded that chops the image off on the right. I'm of the belief that when choosing between smaller but complete image and a higher res, but incomplete image, the full complete image is preferable. If you agree with that, would you be so kind as to protect the image? The image I want to upload right now is directly from the artist website. However, I don't want to upload it for risk of breaking the 3RR. - JMAS 04:13, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

Stass Allie pic
Hey hey you were too fast! I improved the picture and was going to put the "no source" message beneath it. I was just looking for the template, and you didn't even give me the time to finish. That's not fair! Klow 15:53, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Don't upload pictures without sources. Period. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 15:55, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Don't say "period", please. I was not done yet. I was just trying to help and you didn't give the time to finish. If you don't want this pic which is not great anyway, whatever, I was just trying to help. You should have deleted it a long time ago, with many other unsourced pictures that have been staying on the site for a long time. Klow 15:58, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Don't upload pictures without sources. Period. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 15:59, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
 * T'es vraiment trop borné toi, j'abandonne. Les choses ne sont pas toujours noires ou blanches, elles sont parfois grises. Oui, je sais, tu ne comprends pas le français. Et si c'est le cas, eh bien tant mieux pour toi. C'est dommage, j'aime vraiment bien ta page d'utilisateur. Klow 16:21, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
 * 1: English is the official language of Wookieepedia. 2: Things may not always be black or white, but sometimes they are. 3: Be careful, or Jaymach will try to make you a translation slave. 4: Don't upload pictures without sources. Period. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 16:25, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Hey this is getting funny. Jaymatch already asked me and showed me what was to be translated, but I don't have enough time, not that I wouldn't like it. But the task is too huge. Maybe later. And I spend a lot of time fixing images summaries, adding the sources, and from time to time replacing some images by better versions. I also think that putting sources is important, just as you. 3 seconds after your deletion this picture would have had its source, you have my word. Klow 16:39, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. I just get twitchy with the delete button sometimes. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 16:45, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Great, you finally understand me! :-D But don't worry I'll be more careful next time. And if you see this again and realize I'm the author of this apparent mistake, just wait a couple of minutes. ;-) Klow 19:05, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks.
Thanks for going through Talk:Venator-class Star Destroyer and changing the image in my signature. &mdash;Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) 19:43, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Actually I asked to use his bot to go through every page linked from the (now deleted) Implogo.jpg and change it to Image:Implogo.png, I just had to edit the ones that were protected or semi-protected. --  Darth Culator  (Talk) 20:11, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Ah. Still, I appreciate it. &mdash;Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Imperial_Emblem.svg|20px]] 20:26, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

CT question
You wrote in the "galaxy vs. Galaxy" CT, that you are going to close the CT in two weeks' time. If I start replacing "Galaxy" with "galaxy" before you shut down the voting, would my edits be a violation of the Manual of Style? BTW, I would like to ask you to either respond on my talk page, or in the relevant CT thread, as I am not sure I would remember checking your talk page. Thanks. - TopAce (Talk) 16:38, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
 * The CT is now closed. Sorry about the delay. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 02:29, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

OK, sure
Ban me then, Mr. Admin. Darthtyler Talk 02:12, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Xizor
I asked a question in the knowledge bank and when I went back too check it I saw that it had been deleted. I posted it two other times and the same thing happened. I looked at the deletion log and saw that you deleted it because it broke KB rule 4. I assume KB means Knowledge Bank. Knowledge bank rule #4 is No wild fan theories. I just asked a question about something in the comics. How is that breaking rule #4? Thanks Anzati02 19:52, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

Deleted image
I noticed you deleted Falcon-chased.jpg as a duplicate image. I couldn't find the image it was duplicate of, or I wouldn't have uploaded it. Would you mind telling me what the image name was that was duplicated? - JMAS 00:47, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Nevermind, I saw it. - JMAS 00:49, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

I've no clue how to back check upload logs, so I can't tell on my own merits...but did you ever get a chance to upload that R5-D4 screen? --School of Thrawn 101 04:39, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Nevermind, I found it. Thanks! --School of Thrawn 101 04:42, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

IRC Ban
After you booted me off IRC, I tried to get in and it says I was banned from the channel. What did I do wrong? Clark Kent300 22:22, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
 * We've told you before to shut up about Scrubs but you continued to spam the channel with it. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 22:24, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

Editing Problem

 * I'm having a problem making a lightblue link to Wikipedia on my userpage: there are two spaces after it that I have no idea where they come from. Could you please check it out? I can't find the problem. Cm56327 01:28, 22 August 2007 (UTC)Cm56237
 * You were addressing it as an external link rather than an inter-wiki link. I corrected it for you this time, but you can go here for more information. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 01:39, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks a lot! Cm56327 01:59, 22 August 2007 (UTC)Cm56327

User:Olsonman
First off, he has a userbox stating he's 10. Second of all, he contributes heavily, nearly exclusively to his user page. Could you protect his page and remove the userbox? Thanks,  Jediknight19bby  ( Jedi High Council Chambers ) 21:05, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

Anon to watch

 * Hey, I'm likely to be away from a decent computer through the weekend, so I'd like to ask if you'd keep an eye on Special:Contributions/71.10.72.23. He's made a heck of a lot of dubious edits, several that I've had to revert, though none yet that have been openly vandalous.  jSarek 21:25, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

XM-1 Nova Wing
A new argument against the MIS FA is its name "XM-1 Nova Wing". GreenTentacle would like a source, I over looked this issue, as I do not know its source. I've checked all my TIE Fighter manuals, the game, and X-wing Alliance (game). I have not yet receieved my XWA:OSG, perhaps it's in there, but I don't know where else to look. If I don't get a source soon, I will be moving the page to "Missile Boat" and removing XM-1. Can you help me out?--MIS Tau 1 23:06, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Your AWB edits.
Darth Culator, I have a question about your edits. Is there any specific reason why all those spaces need to be removed? With the spaces gone, it's kind of harder for me (and perhaps others, but I don't know) to edit. In addition, is there some new policy that says there aren't supposed to be links in image captions? &mdash;Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) 00:35, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Hey Culator, we are having an meeting for Inqs soon, and your attendance/input would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Greyman ( Paratus ) 02:11, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Additions to ship infobox
Love the recent additions, but I was wondering if a few more could be added, specifically "first seen" and "last seen". Like on the individual ship infobox. :) VT-16 10:19, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't know that "last seen" would be that useful, given the multi-millennial lifespans of some classes. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 11:41, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
 * That's exactly why I'd like to see it, to know their lifespans and stuff. :) VT-16 20:48, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

My deleted images
Hi, I see you've deleted some images I've uploaded. If I were to upload them again and put them onto a temporary user sub-page of mine until I could put them into the articles proper, would that count as vandalism or would it be fine? Firebird 04:48, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Is this right?
After looking into your new rant section, I believe you have your canon-Galaxies comparison mixed up in regards to the Selonians. The same name was used for two characters, one being Selonian, the other being Human. --  Riffsyphon  1024 17:10, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
 * The point is that the human one is apparently not supposed to be a different character, and they clearly have the technical means to give her the correct appearance. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 17:15, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Ah I see. --  Riffsyphon  1024 18:29, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Benfury.jpg
Mind if I ask why you reverted he image? I got it from the same source. It's from the Audio book cover instead, and doesn't crop off his hand or the lightsaber emitter. - JMAS 23:56, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
 * A, because it's slightly smaller, and B, because the audiobook cover has slightly different colors which feel wrong to me. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 00:04, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Usergroups??????????
Im new to the Star Wars wiki and i was wondering, are there any star wars usergroups???????

TheDevilMayCry 06:40, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

annoying name?!?
Hi. Just asking. You deleted the image Image:Günbatımı.jpg because it had an annoying name. Did you move it? If not, could you bring it back. Honestly, I don't even remember what it was. But I don't think the deletion was fair. --Steinninn 21:30, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Quick question
Mind if I ask what was wrong with the NEGVV Xwing image I uploaded today? - JMAS 03:22, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Did you actually look at them? One looks like a picture. The other looks like a collection of dots that are trying to look like a picture. It takes surprisingly little effort to take an image from paper and make it look like it belongs on a screen, but you never seem to make that effort. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 03:28, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

Really frustrated
I would like to know why was reverted my edit of the Imperial I-class Star Destroyer. It was done is response to the opinions of various users expressed in the talk page, in which I also explained myself. I cited sources and didn´t contradict what the article said before, but instead tried to harmonize it with other pages in the Wookiepedia (mainly the list of ships of the Imperial Navy), lefting the phrases almost untouched. I think what I wrote has enough canon support (except the speculation about the lack of SSDs, but that paragraph is more about Operation Shadow Hand than ISD, anyway -I´ll understand if only that is deleted). The only problem I see is I forgot login in (I thought I was already logged). Please, put back the changes or at least give me some explanation. This was my first edit and having it reverted without a word in a matter of minutes is frustrating and -as long as I see it- unfair.Jon Valerius 14:11, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Kannen Doom
Hey. Thanks for the note. I didn't realize it was linked to. It probably should have had a tag. Nevertheless, I've since re-uploaded the pic. If you see me make a similar mistake, let me know again. --Eyrezer 00:16, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

Hissa pics
Here's a list of pictures I would appreciate you scanning:


 * The one of Hissa saluting to Trioculus in The Lost City of the Jedi - Chapter 3.
 * The one of Hissa in the dramatis personae type thingy in all the books.
 * The one of Hissa holding Ken hostage in Mission from Mount Yoda - Chapter 8.
 * The one of Hissa's limbs melting in Mission from Mount Yoda - Chapter 8.
 * Maybe a rescan of Image:Hissahover.jpg also.

If there's any other good detailed pictures in the three books I've got in e-book form, please also upload them (a death pic would be awesome). Thank you very much for your help. --  AdmirableAckbar  [Talk] 20:11, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Done and done (by Ozzel) and done and done. Others will be up tomorrow. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 02:29, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Here's the death scene. And Lord H3O+ already did the hovering one. It just needs to be cropped differently for different applications. Any other specific requests, or should I just pick a few more at random? -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 03:56, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Thank you for all the images. I think I've got enough now, but if I need any more I'll let you know. Thanks, --  AdmirableAckbar  [Talk] 13:22, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Re:FA stuff
Thanks for the image, and for the Hissa stuff. That's been sorted now, if you'd like to take a look. Cheers, --  AdmirableAckbar  [Talk] 20:57, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

Hey

Old image revision
I don't want to even tempt the 3RR. Would you be so kind as to revert Image:Jax Pavan.jpg to the higher res full cover art version from the artist website, and then delete the old revisions. The original uploader keeps reverting. - JMAS 04:31, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Hey Darth Culator, I was going to help with the article mentioned above but it is being revised. Can I help?-- Darth Skirata   ( Talk ) 01:10, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm working on it when I get time, but it's going quite slowly. If you want to work on it, feel free. Just try to keep to the general format that's already used there and on the pages for the other editions. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 01:13, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

There was no proof
That the V38 assault fighter was a variant of the TIE series. Why did you undo my productive removal of unprovable and unverified information?Wilhelm screamer 04:17, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
 * One: because the information presented is sufficiently ambiguous as it is, and two: because your version was utter crap. Learn some basic grammar before you bitch about people reverting your edits, because I can guarantee it will happen again. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 04:20, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I joined this wiki fully aware of the risk that all of my productivity could be erased at a moments notice. I was merely trying to find out why my edit was undone this time.  I am sorry to have angered you. Wilhelm screamer 04:42, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

I don't want to get into conflict, but why were my edits to the Vaklu article deleted?--Vaklu 00:16, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry. Clicked the wrong link. Fixed now. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 00:17, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh, okay.--Vaklu 00:22, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Vua Rapuung
Hi Darth Culator,

I'm confused. I saw your edits on the Vua Rapuung article, which were very helpful in sorting out my somewhat lacking ability to spell, but was unsure of one thing:

Succession Pool? Why are both letters capitalized? I obviously shouldn't be capitalizing blaster to Blaster etc, so what's the dealio? If its MoS related, I'll gladly accept it, but otherwise I'm not sure. Also - Master Shaper? Why is it capitalized and not just shaper, or warrior. I get Field Commander Sinan Mat - it's a title. But "a field commander, Sinan Mat" is not a title, and is lower case...

Please can I have some guidance?

Thanks, and thanks again for your corrections. I'm English, so it's already surprsingly difficult to remember all the American spellings. Few embarrassing ones there though, such as underbush... :S

Harrar 20:22, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
 * That's where the articles (Succession Pool and Master Shaper) are. Don't ask me why. I'm just trying to avoid redirects wherever possible. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 20:28, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Can't these articles be renamed? I dislike the use of redirects as well, but it's plain wrong...I'm not sure if articles can be renamed, and I don't know how to. Harrar 23:41, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Onderon image
Who said that the image I uploaded wasn't from Kotor II?--Vaklu 23:37, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Someone whose word I trust over yours. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 23:42, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I didn't mean anything by the question (at least not towards you), I just wanted to know why someone would think that someone was out their putting fake Kotor II images on official sites. But I see that you don't want to disclose this person's name; I don't know why, I mean I can't see why it's important, but if you could tell me their reasoning, that would allow me to show you that it is, in fact, a legitamate image.--Vaklu 23:47, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Honestly I don't know why you distrust me, or why you made it so clear to me. But all I'd like to know is why this person does not believe in the legitamacy in my image's background, since you are unwilling to tell me their names, which I will respect. If you would like, we may discuss things on the IRC, since that would resolve things more quickly; I don't want to bother you, but I do want to improve upon my work. I hope we can resolve this peaceably and with out much disagreement.--Vaklu 19:58, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Just keep pushing, Shaelas, and see what happens. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 23:24, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm pretty sure my name is Vaklu, I don't know how you'd mix that up; however, it seems that you're now ill-disposed towards me, so I'll do what you ask, and leave you alone.--Vaklu 10:49, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Star Wars: Sagas MUSH
Not to be a pain in the ass, but since others seem to be getting replies and I am not, I thought to readd. Firstly, my apologies - I was unaware that a page(s) had been created for Star Wars: Sagas in the past. I'm a new administrator mainly handling wiki information both for the game's site as well as externally. There was no explanation beyond the Constantly recreated pages notification that I received in email. Is there a particular criteria (much like Wikipedia has) by which a MUSH can be added to Wookiepedia in the Category:MU* games? Currently in this category are four other games of similar content (SWMud, Star Wars MUSH, Star Wars: Uprising and Legend of the Jedi) that don't seem to have been given similar fates. Any help would be much appreciated - thanks! Tori 23:56, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Hey can you delete my userpage please?

Thanks if you can

FA objection
Could you please take a look at your objections to Joruus C'baoth on the FA noms page?  Chack Jadson  (Talk) 13:00, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Image deletion
I did source Image:'face.JPG. Why did you delete it? And if you plan on telling me that I didn't source it, I kindly request you undelete the image so I can see that I did not source it (after which you may delete it); although, I distinctly remember putting Attack of the Clones promotional image in the sourcing box.--Vaklu 13:00, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
 * You didn't put "promotional image" anywhere, just Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones, which removed and replace with No source. That's all that was there when I deleted it. Plus, just calling something a promotional image doesn't really count as sourcing unless you have something to back it up like a link to an Official Pix product page. --  Darth Culator  (Talk) 16:48, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I see, well no use in going to all the trouble. I'll just let things remain as they are. The image that they replaced mine with isn't completely unacceptable.--Vaklu 00:01, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

No! I was only trying to upload a new image of Soontir Fel I just found and never seen. What's wrong with that?(Fran 05:00, 22 February 2008 (UTC))

Inq meeting

Bot fix
Hey Darth Culator, we now have a working fix for that bot bug that added the div tags. See User:Xwing328/Pywikipedia for how to fix it. —Xwing328 (Talk) 16:43, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Ooh, neato. Thanks. Is there any chance they'll add that to the SVN, or will I need to add it manually every time I update? -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 16:49, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I have no idea. They might, since the bug report I posted was on the pywikipedia sourceforge site. —Xwing328 (Talk) 00:51, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Logos
Heh, I was actually gonna contact you today about all the tech stuff.

Please, feel free to do whatever you need; I don't know anything about the tech side of things, so that'd be great. Actually, if you or someone else could handle all the tech-related stuff-- like, templates and whatever, since I'm doing replacements for images that are used all over the damn wookiee-- I'd appreciate it. Also, let me know what I need to do to have them in the proper format, so I can save you some work. :P

About the WookieeProject-- I wasn't sure about how those things work (and too tired last night to figure it out), so I just threw that up as a temporary repository... can those have subpages, and can I change the title? I'm planning on doing a whole lot more than just the faction logos-- like, I wanna (eventually) do pretty much anything that'd be better as an svg. The faction thing just requires a lot more research, since I'm trying to figure out what symbols are used when, what the color schemes are, and so on. I was also considering doing some kind of request page, so y'all can let me know which ones are most needed.

Last, I redid the era icons, but I'm not sure how complicated it'd be to replace the old pngs, so let me know what I need to do regarding that.

Anyway, I'll try and drop by IRC throughout the day and hopefully catch you there. Thanks for the support! - Trip 16:51, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Era icon problem
Hey Culator. I sent you an email (to email you have registered with Wikia) detailing where we need to start to attempt to fix this problem with the era icons. Read it through, and get back to me with your thoughts. Greyman ( Paratus ) 15:35, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Question
Okay, this is kinda random and more of a quest for information that anything else: on my watchlist area place thing i looked and there were all these hits done by KillerRoboLiea3000...i understand its a bot. Does this KillerRoboLiea go around randomly fixing mistakes? And how does the blasted thing work? --LtCol. JuiceStain 00:10, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
 * And I just read the box at the top, and apologize for disobeying....--LtCol. JuiceStain 00:13, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
 * The box is a joke. Mostly. And is indeed a bot. To create it, I followed the instructions on User:Xwing328/Pywikipedia. It doesn't operate at random, it does exactly what it's told. Right now, I'm replacing raster logos with vector versions as part of a project to make basic line-drawings clean and scalable. --  Darth Culator  (Talk) 00:30, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok, gotcha. Thanks. Until next time!--LtCol. JuiceStain 04:21, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Gotab/Bardan Jusik
it has been revealed that the characters Gotab and Bardan Jusik are the same person and i think that someone needs to merge their articles. This has been known for a while, yet nothing has happened, so i was wondering if you would be able to help. I am contacting a number of admins as well, so hopefully this will be able to be sorted out as soon as possible. Thanks for any help u can give me --Tom Slaughts 13:59, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Felth cantina image

 * Hello there, is there any chance you could crop the image (further) of Felth that you uploaded so 1047 gets a picture, please?  Vetinari (Appointment) 21:33, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Galleries in articles
I saw you reinstated the Scythe-class gallery in its article. Has the policy against galleries in articles been changed? VT-16 12:06, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Galleries that exist as standalone pages are banned. I didn't know there was a policy against galleries in articles. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 12:16, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Apparantly there is. That's why I had to stop making them and delete the ones that I already made. =/ Personally, I think they're nice inside an article. VT-16 13:50, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Like Culator, I thought the ban on galleries was only as stand alone gallery pages. But I know Imp, and I think some other admins have been deleting them from articles also. -  JMAS  Hey, it's me! 23:13, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

97 ABY
Hello, Darth Culator. Why was this article deleted? I'm asking because I would like to create the article so I could Morrigan Corde/Nyna Calixte's birth date on there, but when I went to create it, it said that it had been previously deleted by you because of "spam". Can I go ahead and create this page, or what? I just wanna know what reasons it was deleted before I go create it, only to have it deleted. Please leave me a message on my talk page.--Jedi Kasra 22:36, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
 * All of the unused years were deleted per a TC decision. The mass-deletion tool had "spam" as a default reason so the first bunch were marked like that by mistake. If the date is official, then go ahead and recreate it. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 22:54, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Will do.--Jedi Kasra 22:04, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Behind the Magic
Would you mind telling me how it is you are able to extract the game data file from the program? Is there a specific program you use to do that? -  JMAS  Hey, it's me! 01:06, 16 March 2008 (UTC) Oh, that is awesome! I'll go ahead and extract the rest of the ones that you haven't done yet. Thanks DC. -  JMAS  Hey, it's me! 01:40, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Not at all. The program is called "Bundle Explorer" and was made expressly for these files. Inside the giant data files on the BtM CDs are plain old JPGs (alongside some incomprehensible proprietary files). The upside is that there are visibly lower artifacts and banding on the extracted files, the downside is that you still have to run the program to get captions or any sense of organization. --  Darth Culator  (Talk) 01:19, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Evir Derricote
Hey man. Thanks for your support with Zekka Thyne. I've nominated Evir Derricote and so far I think the objections have been addressed, but it's not been read by too many people yet. Maybe you could give it a look when you have time? --Colinmcev 07:11, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

RE:Friendly reminder
Hi, thanks for the signature reminder. However, it appears that the image in my sig is exactly 20 px, the required size. Should I change it to 19 px, or just keep it the way it is? Thanks. supergeeky1 The Cantina 23:42, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
 * The picture may not be more than 20 pixels in height. This means to be compliant it must be reduced to 11 pixels wide, as shown above. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 23:46, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

Re:Final Warning
"You are well on your way to getting blocked from editing for disruptive behavior." How am I having disruptive behavior? The only thing I can think off is making a picture bigger, (Ackbar corrected me and I see how I was wrong) That is pretty much it...... How can I be on my final warning, Ataru and I have been discussing differnt things about this site and I have been reading a lot of the things, but i barelly edit. (Most of my edits are on my Userpage) All my real eddits have been pretty much helpful. How am I in the wrong? Purplegethos 16:14, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Mailing list
Hey, Culator. I've set up a private administrator mailing list to help coordinate the current administrators of the site, and I am attempting to contact each administrator to get them to subscribe. You can subscribe here. My point with setting up this mailing list to get all of the administrators of Wookieepedia operating on the same page, and in a more unified fashion. Regardless of any personal differences that may exist between some members, I still feel that it is important that we are all operating on the same level, with regards to knowledge of the site, and new/upcoming stuff that is going to happen&mdash;so, basically, this is an attempt to coordinate us all in an effort to help keep us on the same page with regards to new policies, new ideas, announcements, discussions, etc. In my opinion, we're all on the same team and this will only help us to be a more organized and cohesive working unit&mdash;even more so than we currently are. I've already spoken with a few admins via IRC, and they have liked my point of this whole thing, and have thus signed up&mdash;I would really appreciate it you could do likewise :) Any questions about this, you know where you can reach me.

Revert?
Why were my edits on Manaan reverted?--Vaklu 00:34, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Because, Shaelas, your edit to the "Galactic Empire" section was ungrammatical and nonsensical, and the article is better off if you don't start fanonizing it again. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 00:38, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
 * With all due respect, the Selkath article states that the Selkath continued their kolto activities. Saying that the Empire resettled Ahto City is misleading.--Vaklu 00:47, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

Umm...Hello.
I was wondering if I had to ask you if I could reference some of your articles on an article I'm going to create on Star Wars Fanon?Darth Craetor 02:37, 30 March 2008 (UTC) Never mind.Darth Craetor 04:45, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I wasn't aware I owned any articles. If I did, I wouldn't much care who referenced them. So reference away, whoever you are. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 02:50, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

1,013 BBY
Hey, Darth Culator. Is it O.K. if I create the article for this year? I mean, since Darovit was born in 1,013 BBY, then something happened that year. Please leave me a message on my talk page.--Jedi Kasra 22:54, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Deleting "unnnamed" redirects
I'm not sure that it's strictly necessary to delete those redirects once the articles have been moved to "unidentified", especially since some of them may still be linked outside of the main article namespace. Redirects are cheap, after all. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 15:49, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm checking "what links here" before deleting them and editing links as necessary. If they're not linked anywhere, they're utterly useless. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 15:51, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
 * You have a point. I'll be following your lead, then. Cheers, &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 16:13, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Odds?
Why did you revert a comment and protect the page? It seems a little overboard, and I don't see what the guy did to warrant his comments being reverted. :? Darth Bassan94 03:02, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

"If you continue to remove content from pages, you will be blocked from editing Wookieepedia."

 * Ok, what is this supposed to mean? I don't remove content from pages. I'd like to have an example of this, if you don't mind.. --The Wolfe22 20:25, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Canoid pic- Need opinion
The current image from the Essential Guide needed some majour cleaning up. At the moment, however, I don't have access to my Essential Guide, so I popped the current pic into Photoshop and cleaned it. This is the result. Seeing as how the linework was redone just to get it to that quality, I'm unsure if I'd be allowed to upload it.  Trak Nar  Ramble on 03:32, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Gar Stazi Article
Hey Darth Culator. Would you mind reviewing my nomination for gar Stazi as a FA? It has come a very long way since I first tried to nominate it (VERY prematurely) mack in early May. So far I have two user and two Inquisitorius votes. I would very much appreciate it if you could take a peak at the article and let me know what you think. AdmiralNick22 04:49, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Bpfassh image
Since Image:Planet26-Bpfassh-SWR.png is only used to represent Bpfassh, would it be alright to place it in the article for that planet, which currently has no image? -  JMAS  Hey, it's me! 00:52, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
 * That's the idea. We spawned this project in IRC after Moltok needed an image, so now anyone who wants to use them can go ahead and do so. I've just finished organizing them. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 01:00, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
