Your userbox is ready. It could only have two colors so I put Red and Blue. Thanks. -- Scwhinky Communicate 16:19, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Thank you very much m8. Now if only I could figure out how to make one.--Goodwood 07:01, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Hallis
I had a look and made one comment on the Inq page. Aprat from that, looks good. --Eyrezer 04:35, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks Eyrezer, the article has been (hopefully) fixed per your comment.--Goodwood 17:14, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

You just broke one thousand edits. Awesome! - Graestan 21:11, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks mate! Now I've just got to get my (Main) edits up to that number... ;o)--Goodwood 21:13, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Dogfight pictures
Hey Goodwood, I uploaded some of the dogfight pictures that I came across and organized them in a Gallery for you → Gallery of dogfight images. That is by no means all of them, so if you have any special requests of certain dogfights, just let me know and I'll do my best to help you out. Cheers, Greyman ( Paratus ) 22:34, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
 * What you've got there so far looks really good. If it's possible I'd like to get the source works for the pictures so I can include them in the "Appearances" section - in addition more Clone Wars/Legacy dogfights would be welcome. Vidoe game screen shots are also good.--Goodwood 22:39, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Force cage
Just a quick compliment: good work on Force cage. I wanted to expand that myself&mdash;a long time ago&mdash;but you were faster, and I think your version is good enough, probably better than the one I could have written. - TopAce (Talk) 13:34, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the compliment, TopAce! ;o) --Goodwood 19:03, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

RFA
I strongly agree with your stance. I am giving Jaymach the chance to give me at least one positive impression before casting my vote. But I really do begin to see what certain "new" (presumably disgruntled and returning) users are thinking about the admins. Some of them were talking about giving Jaymach his sysop rights back without nomination or voting. I vehemently disagree with the notion. We cannot just have an "in crowd" on Wookieepedia; this is a meritocracy by nature. I must thank you for being the one against the many, unshakable in principle. - 07:23, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the support Graestan, but seriously I'm just pissed off that people like him are allowed to just "be evil", as they like to pretend to be. He's not evil - just a major-league asshole.--Goodwood 07:25, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I've come to understand that Jaymach's contributions to the Wiki, aside from his bullyish behavior in the IRC, actually exceed those of many admins, including the several admins I like even less than Jaymach. The whole superiority complex displayed by a few of our admins sickens me.  My opinion of you remains high, Goodwood.  You're like me: you really want to contribute, you don't really care what people think about you, and you encourage young and new users who otherwise would be crushed under the heels of some of our more prolific users.  But in Jaymach's case, I suggest taking the high road.  If he wants to be an arse, let him.  I really don't believe others revere him for his interpersonal skills.  That's why I nominated Greyman. -  16:20, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, he does contribute a lot, and yes he does keep the community well-supplied with all sorts of illegal stuff (wink, wink), and I can kind of see your point regarding him, but my vote stands. Ah well... ;o) Greyman's a good choice though.--Goodwood 20:54, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I stand with you. And they can fuck with me all they want. -  21:00, 16 July 2007 (UTC) - Joe Weaver

Vote
I'm trying to figure this out, you voted for the quote of Fi and Sev I put up, but you don't like Karen Traviss? P.S. Thanks, by the way, for the vote.Tracynsenaar 00:40, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
 * You're welcome. See, I think she's a good character writer, but she's done a whole boatload of things to piss off the fanbase, not the least of which was killing off a certain robe-wearing redhead. Karen strikes me as the type of alpha-bitch who wants desperately to be seen as a "take-no-prisoners" promoter of "her" interp of the saga and damn anyone for having a different opinion. FFS, she's made veiled death threats to fans on the TFN forums!--Goodwood 00:45, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Yo
Hey Goodwood. How have you been? Haven't seen you in IRC for awhile! Hope is well :) Cheers, Greyman ( Paratus ) 23:55, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Sorry mate, just got lost playing Empire at War again...and then another graphic arts project fairly screamed for my attention...you know how these things go. Bet Pi misses me, eh? ;o)--Goodwood 23:56, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
 * lol. And I know how Empire at War can be...ADDICTIVE! arg, I spent many hours playing that game, lol. Greyman ( Paratus ) 23:58, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Come back to IRC :) Greyman ( Paratus ) 20:51, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I'll explain when you come back, trust me. Greyman ( Paratus ) 20:54, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Goodwood...? Come on, I have some things that I wanted to run past you. Graestan is onboard with it as well. Greyman ( Paratus ) 21:05, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Re: Starfighter combat

 * The article is now referenced fully and the capitalization issues have been fixed, but there is still some sticky wording when it comes to uses of "dogfight" and "starfighter combat" that should be addressed before I consider it good. I left some more comments on the GA page also. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 18:13, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
 * http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Image:X-wing_35_12.jpg is uploaded for you. Please crop it for use in the article after you save it to your computer as I will be deleting it in 5 minutes. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 23:56, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks, got it. Will be cropping and adding now. Thanks for your help thus far, BTW.--Goodwood 00:01, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Karen and Jango
I read that quote and laughed until my sides hurt. OMG it's funny. Tracynsenaar 00:37, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks, it's a parody of what Tyria Sarkin and Garik Loran say to each other in X-wing: Wraith Squadron.--Goodwood 01:21, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Bah!
I thought you deserved this for the work you've done on Starfighter combat. Now you have to get it past the Inq's and get it that little FA star :) . Cheers,  Greyman ( Paratus ) 23:50, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks mate! This means a lot to me... :o)--Goodwood 00:01, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

IRC
If you have a few moments, come hop on IRC for a second&mdash;I have some things to run by you. Greyman ( Paratus ) 02:06, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Err, umm...that shouldn't matter if you're using ChatZilla for...that. Greyman ( Paratus ) 02:13, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Indeed, I do. Greyman ( Paratus ) 02:18, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Erm, I thought I was the one waiting...? lol. In ChatZilla go to Preferences > irc.freenode.net > Lists > Auto-perform > add > /msg nickserv identify password > add > /chanserv invite channel. Then restart ChatZilla. Greyman ( Paratus ) 02:31, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

Era tags
Re your edit to Sarkan: our usual policy for era tags is that they only appear for articles which are specifically tied to one period, such as events, characters, and vehicles. Almost all sentient species, planets, etc., exist in some form for the whole of galactic history, so the era tags are left out. Anyway, that's why I reverted your edit.

Starfight Combat
Nice job on the Pilot Characteristics. Sorry about earlier, I was on the phone and not at my computer. However, I just finished reading over it, and you managed to do it quite nicely. Greyman ( Paratus ) 03:14, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
