Annoyingly persistent user
Could you please do something about Starshiptrooper continuously adding false information to Trade Federation Troop Transport, despite being warned about it? I've used up by three reversions so I can't really do anything more. This person is the same IP that was editing the article as well. Thanks. - Brandon Rhea  (talk) 20:24, November 7, 2009 (UTC)


 * Got it. Thanks. - Brandon Rhea Alliance Starbird.svg (talk) 20:41, November 7, 2009 (UTC)

Feedback
Hey there, I'm not yet as active as I'd like to be on Wookieepedia, but I was just looking for some feedback on something I had been working on for several months and recently finished. I manually went through all 365 days of the year and applied all Star Wars and Wookieepedia-related events to month articles. (Before this, all month articles were blank and served no purpose.) Would you mind letting me know what you think? (January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December) Thanks! – NoahferferTalk 15:37, November 8, 2009 (UTC)

Vast Empire
Hello again,

Couldn't help but notice you didn't answer my earlier question about the Vast Empire, and as to why our wiki page has been deleted. 24.203.224.149 03:16, November 9, 2009 (UTC)(Rogueboy)
 * Well, you must not have looked very hard, because I did answer your question. You'll have to go back and look in my most recent talk archive. Toprawa and Ralltiir 03:28, November 9, 2009 (UTC)

Your article was imported to the Star Wars Fan Wiki, a growing encyclopedia about fan projects and other aspects of the fan community. It's no longer on Wookieepedia because of the new notability guidelines for fan projects, which your article didn't meet. You can find your article on the Fan Wiki here. - Brandon Rhea  (talk) 04:24, November 9, 2009 (UTC)

Revert
Why did you revert my edit, I can see nothing that is out of date that was mentioned in those two sources.

Fanboys (2003) Problem
I sincerely apologize for causing any problems. I was completely unaware that the article had been previously deleted by an admin. Had I known this, I never would have recreated the article. However, what should be done about the 36 or so redlinks (I found the article on "Wanted Pages")leading to the page? Also, was there any way of knowing that the article had prerviously deleted as to prevent me from making this error in the future? Thanks. --Darth shohet 00:06, November 18, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Deletion
I did not create the template just to list the video game. Like I said before, the reason I created it is because with so many game versions - 6 different platforms, 3 alternate storylines, 2 downloadable levels, multitude of playable models, and now the Sith Edition - almost every item requires some sort of a commentary in the appearances section anyway, and I just came up with a way to list them in a universal way. Now, would that make you reconsider your decision or... ?  Mauser  Comlink 11:49, November 18, 2009 (UTC)

Re:
Yeah, sure. Is it preferrable that I add them to WP:VIP, or to an administrator I see on the RC? -- Xd1358  Talk 18:29, November 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks for noticing me :) -- Xd1358  Talk 18:31, November 18, 2009 (UTC)

Alk'lellish
Could you type up the Star Wars: Rebellion: Prima's Official Strategy Guide's entry on Alk'lellish for me? --Eyrezer 12:22, November 20, 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks. My understanding is that the Guide duplicates the game's encyclopedia entries, and therefore the game will not have any info either. Is that correct? --Eyrezer 21:19, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

On Fi Skirata
The Quote on Fi's page doesn't really seem to portray his actual feelings on the republic and i feel like the quote i used was much better i was wondering if you could mabye not change that. Because the Dha Werda quote sorta well sucks
 * If you can push yourself to employ the necessary level of grammatical and punctuational skill required, your edits won't be reverted. Toprawa and Ralltiir 18:11, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Tho'natu
Hey Tope, thanks for catching that, they should both have been there. Fixed now. :) Jonjedigrandmaster  ( Jedi Beacon ) 18:39, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

Me being annoying
I don't have trouble with this, I haven't checked since those warnings were posted. And Progate Temple said that someone wanted to eat Luminara, instead of control her. Sorry if I had bad faith.&mdash;B-Boba Fett! Make the check out to "Boba Fett"  01:51, November 23, 2009 (UTC)

R5-M2
Sure, I have issue 37, so I can take a look for you. Give me until tonight (my time) to get you the info. - Cavalier One ( Squadron channel ) 09:24, November 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * From FF37, AST6 Astromech Droids - "Another droid which played a small but important role in the Rebellion against the Empire, R5-M2 was specially programmed to plot sublight tactical courses. Owned by charismatic Rebel Alliance officer Shawn Valdex, R5-M2 was pivotal to the successful evacuation of Echo Base during the Battle of Hoth." Hope that helps, Tope. - Cavalier One FarStar Logo.jpg( Squadron channel ) 20:13, November 24, 2009 (UTC)
 * No, that was a typo. Stoopid speeling. :P - Cavalier One FarStar Logo.jpg( Squadron channel ) 22:22, November 24, 2009 (UTC)

Redlins Tag on Holiday Special
Why did you put the Redlinks tag back on the page when the Appearances section has no red links at all, does it refer to the whole page (The Cast and Crew included)? Natonstan 21:00, November 30, 2009 (UTC)
 * Correct. There are still about a dozen or so redlinks on that page. Until that number decreases to around three or less, the Redlinks tag is still appropriate. Toprawa and Ralltiir 21:03, November 30, 2009 (UTC)

Articles needing review
Hey, Toprawa and Ralltiir. I noticed you had listed Fleebog for review because it didn't conform to the species article layout guide. I just wanted to let you know that in the future, you could post to my talk page first, and I'll fix whatever issues you have. Or, if you prefer, you could post to the article talk page. I'm much more likely to be able to see your concerns in either of those locations than on the AgriCorps page, and the article can be fixed much more quickly! Thanks, ~ SavageBob 03:48, December 1, 2009 (UTC)
 * Very well. Thanks. Toprawa and Ralltiir 03:53, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

Alright
Thanks for blocking him. Well, according to data, his real account may be a rollbacker, so, if the admins can't figure out who he really is, the staff may be able to.--Shade  23:47, December 5, 2009 (UTC)
 * Whomever the individual is, is creating sockpuppets, in particular one to impersonate Shade Link. If it has not already been done I would suggest a IP Ban. --Kahn Iceay 19:32, December 8, 2009 (UTC)

Executor revert
Hey Toprawa, I was wondering why my edit to the Executor article was reverted, I was just making the citation a bit more specific. The information from those two paragraphs first appeared in the short story Gambler's Run in Galaxy Guide 5: Return of the Jedi, First Edition. I was just citing that information to the short story and adding short story to the Appearances section. Xicer9 ( Combadge) 00:59, December 7, 2009 (UTC)

Avenger in ROTJ
Hi! Thanks for the info about Avenger when discussing the Star Destroyer at the beginning of ROTJ. Since you had some references, would you care to add info on the Avenger-page, that Vader arrived to Death Star II with the Avenger? --Draii 21:42, December 7, 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, he didn't exactly arrive at the Death Star via the Avenger. He arrived via the Executor, and apparently stopped over at the Avenger before boarding the Death Star, for reasons that have never really been explained in canon. Toprawa and Ralltiir 21:48, December 7, 2009 (UTC)
 * possible, I know nothing of that. But what I do know is that right now the Star Destroyer in the opening sequence of ROTJ don't have a name, since nothing on Wookiepedia, tells that it's the Avenger, or any other craft. And since it both do a mimic of the classic Devastator-scene i ANH and makes the arrival of Vader, I think it's worth to mention. =) --Draii 21:52, December 7, 2009 (UTC)
 * The Star Destroyers in that opening sequence do have a name, even if there isn't much on Wookieepedia explaining it. If you look at the Death Squadron article, you will see this image with a caption explaining what Star Destroyers are there. If you would like to add this information to other articles, please feel free to do so. :) Toprawa and Ralltiir 21:54, December 7, 2009 (UTC)
 * Didn't realize that picture was from the movie. Great, I'll do some edits then. Great to finally know what Destroyer it is. Now next thing is to find the names of the two Destroyers chasing Falcon over Tatooine, with the Conquest. And the name of the two destroyers almost colliding with the Avenger in ESB =) Cheers! --Draii 21:59, December 7, 2009 (UTC)

separatist command center
Why is it "crap"? I'm still working on it.--Tellanroaeg 00:17, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, actual content is required for an article to exist. Meaning when you just create a new article and add nothing but a distorted and over-sized infobox with no actual written words, that's not enough to meet the very basic requirements of an article, which include a written description of the subject, Appearances and/or Sources, and an article category. These are all things to be found here and here. Toprawa and Ralltiir 00:21, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes I understand that. But as I said, I'm still working on it. I'm new to uploading pictures and writing articles, so of course it won't be perfect the first time.--Tellanroaeg 00:26, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * It doesn't have to be perfect, but your initial edit does need to meet the minimal requirements. If you need a place to work or test edits, you are welcome to create a subpage or work in the Jundland Wastes. Toprawa and Ralltiir 00:30, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok, I understand. But how do I create subpages? Because if I'm working in the "sandbox" it may still be deleted before I'm done.--Tellanroaeg 00:40, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * Create a page at "User:Tellanroaeg/Whatever". "Whatever" can be whatever name you choose to call it. For example: User:Toprawa and Ralltiir/Zev Senesca. Toprawa and Ralltiir 00:44, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * And it seem like you're already fairly competent at wiki editing and formatting. Toprawa and Ralltiir 00:49, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much, this will help a lot. And there I can take my own time working on the articles, without someone deleting them?--Tellanroaeg 00:55, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * Correct. Toprawa and Ralltiir 01:02, December 8, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Creating Articles
This is a separate follow up on the subject of recreating previously deleted articles. I am choosing to bring this up because, upon finding articles that need to be created, many of them have fit these descriptions. Lets say an article was deleted simply because it was unverified or purely composed of content completely unrelated to the subject of the article (pertaining to Wookieepedia or not). Are there any other reasons an article could be deleted but recreated if the error was fixed? If so, I would greatly appreciate if you could list some as it would greatly help me contribute to and improve Wookieepedia. What would your ruling be on this? Thanks a lot. --Darth shohet 01:31, December 10, 2009 (UTC)

Are you serious? Is this actually such a huge deal? --Darth shohet 20:20, December 20, 2009 (UTC)

I feel I should also mention my first article creating "incident," if you will, was excused by SFH when I expressed my confusion to him. He said not to worry about it. --Darth shohet 20:26, December 20, 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, you are right, and I should't get so worked up about it. I hope you understand that there are TONS of other things I pay more attention to in my busy real life. --Darth shohet 20:30, December 20, 2009 (UTC)

A new layout perhaps?
Hi. I'm wondering if it is possible to request a new layout. I was thinking there should be one specific to droids. Is this possible or just stuff I only think about? Thanks.-- RC 1138 I hate bugs! 22:20, December 10, 2009 (UTC)

Reversion
Hi. Why did you revert my edit? - Nistra Talk 23:41, December 10, 2009 (UTC)
 * Because the Kolto article is currently a Good article, meaning all new edits must adhere to the Good article rules, which that one did not. If you would like to try again, while making sure to follow these guidelines, you are more than welcome. Toprawa and Ralltiir 00:11, December 11, 2009 (UTC)
 * I am aware that it's a Good article, but what in my edit did not adhere to the rules? Was it the sentence flow? - Nistra Talk 00:16, December 11, 2009 (UTC)
 * I didn't actually read through your writing, but the end of each paragraph or tidbit of independently-verified information must be properly sourced. Toprawa and Ralltiir 00:34, December 11, 2009 (UTC)
 * I did add a reference at the end of the paragraph, since it was all taken from the same source, but I can add several if that is preferable. Thanks for the quick replies. - Nistra Talk 00:44, December 11, 2009 (UTC)

Deletion of I.M.P.S.: The Relentless article
Please explain the deletion of the aforementioned article. (I can see the Relentless is mentioned in the TROOPS article, however, I was unable to find references to any of Blacksheep Production's fan movies.)

Question on Jedi Council
Hi, Toprawa and Ralltiir! I wanted to ask you a question since you're an administrator. Is that Yarael Poof next to Coleman Trebor and isn't Poof supposed to be dead by ep 2? And where's Adi Gallia? Thanks dude! Simpson Homer 03:00, December 15, 2009 (UTC) User: Simpson Homer Never mind

RE:
I am not “creating drama on this wiki” I simply resent being lectured on the civility policy by a user who breaches the civility policy himself. The statement: “No one cares about whatever it is you're whining about” is a breach of the civility policy under: Examples of incivility: Rudeness. However I did not intend to breach the civility policy (I don’t believe I did) and will avoid doing so in the future.  Galen Merik Talk page 02:25, December 19, 2009 (UTC)

Please be civilised
Hello Toprawa and Ralltiir this is Galstone Jattzan, I noticed that you have been extremely unpolite against many people, including Galen Marik, as you quote is offensive.

Now, if I leave the message as that, you would probably just give the same response to me as Galen Marik (or worse). Look, I am not trying to be personal or anything, I simply want to make things better on this wiki. I also know since you are a admin, you wield great power, so I will respect you.

Inqmoot
Hello, Toprawa.

I want to apologize to you for not having been able to attend the Inqmoot this past weekend. Unfortunately, something in real life came up a few hours before that prevented me from attending or even leaving notes. Many thanks to you and Grunny for running it. It seems to have been quite a productive meeting. Merry Christmas, Toprawa. Have a splendid day. &mdash; Fiolli  {Alpheridies University ComNet} 19:08, December 23, 2009 (UTC)

Wampa
Hello, Toprawa. Just wondering - is it really appropriate to have unlicensed, non-canonical source in the featured article?  Mauser  Comlink 17:52, December 30, 2009 (UTC)
 * That's really not for you to decide on your own. Toprawa and Ralltiir 17:53, December 30, 2009 (UTC)
 * Let's assume it isn't, but what are your arguments for keeping it there?  Mauser  Comlink 17:54, December 30, 2009 (UTC)
 * No, we're not assuming. It's not for you to decide on your own. I've warned you before about going around and making sweeping unilateral changes to articles on this wiki without consulting anyone, and this falls right into that category. You're inching closer to a time out every time we have to have this discussion. Toprawa and Ralltiir 17:58, December 30, 2009 (UTC)
 * Cheez, I'm not even fighting to remove it or anything. I just can't understand why do you choose to keep it there, that's all.  Mauser  Comlink 18:03, December 30, 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't "choose" to keep it up there, I follow site policy. The fact is, there are other users on this wiki who would "fight" to keep these articles around. Frankly, I don't care what we do with them, because they're entirely worthless either way you look at it, IMO. But until we do reach a formal consensus to remove them, we're not going to just up and do so by ourselves. Toprawa and Ralltiir 18:08, December 30, 2009 (UTC)
 * That's what I wanted to hear, thank you. On a completely unrelated note, The Nightsister's Revenge features a lot more info on Wampas than there is in the article at the moment - both text and some nice images I'm extracting at the moment. I'm hoping to get to updating the article in the following days, so please do not fully-protect it, okay? =)  Mauser  Comlink 18:12, December 30, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I've been hearing rumors about substantial missing content. I would appreciate if you could show me the text and allow me a crack at adding the updates myself, if that's not too much trouble. Toprawa and Ralltiir 18:15, December 30, 2009 (UTC)
 * I've added all the cards with images of wampas on them to the sources section. I have all the card images on a flash drive, but it'll be almost a week before I had internet access hooked up at our new house to be able to do much more than what I've already done. -  JMAS  Jolly Trooper.png Hey, it's me! 18:20, December 30, 2009 (UTC)
 * Neither I nor the article are in a hurry to do anything. :P Toprawa and Ralltiir 18:21, December 30, 2009 (UTC)
 * The tricky thing is, the content is extremely fractured. Some bits of info are in the random card's lores, some are in the scenario campaign. I'll get the latter into the textual form eventually and will add it onto here, but at the moment I only have it in the game client itself.  Mauser  Comlink 18:23, December 30, 2009 (UTC)

Linking practices
Hey, Toprawa. Thanks for your Fuzzum review; I'll make your requested changes shortly. I do indeed make it standard practice to check all links in my articles to make sure none go to redirects or disambiguation pages, but I embarrassingly missed a couple in the article, as you found when you reviewed it. However, I'm more curious about pipe link capitalization. Do you know why it's standard practice here to write pipe links with initial capitals? For example, what's the reason we do spacecraft as opposed to spacecraft ? I've participated in a few other wikis, and this is the only one that does this, hence my slowness in breaking the old habit. I was just curious if there was a reason behind it. Thanks for your review and for your help, ~ SavageBob 22:45, January 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the explanation! ~ SavageBob 22:50, January 6, 2010 (UTC)

FA Images
What are the specific criteria? thanks in advance. Dangerdan97 01:43, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Is there a minimum pixel count? I need to know the lower acceptable limit for when I re-scan the image. Dangerdan97 01:47, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Don't re-scan anything. The full image that image comes from is as good of quality as you will get as it came directly from the Wizards website. -  JMAS  Jolly Trooper.png Hey, it's me! 01:58, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sooo... how does the image get included in the article, then? Not at all? That seems counterproductive to the wiki. Dangerdan97 02:03, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * The image is pretty crappy, and it's kind of a stretch fitting it into the article as is. I'd just as soon not include it. Toprawa and Ralltiir 02:04, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's the only image of a TIE shuttle that isn't a teeny blurry speck or an obviously photoshopped bomber. Heck, it's the only fully original art of a TIE shuttle at all. I'll drop the matter if standards really are more important than comprehensiveness. Would putting a thumb of the whole orignal image (with indicative subtitling) be acceptable? Dangerdan97 02:10, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Obviously photoshopped? The main image is from the official Databank entry. Of course it looks very similar to a bomber. It was a specially modified TIE bomber. -  JMAS  Jolly Trooper.png Hey, it's me! 02:17, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Point taken, but regarding my question..? Dangerdan97 02:18, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's not a matter of comprehensiveness. It's whether or not the text of the article can support X number of images. Currently, the textual portion of the article is holding as many images as it can reasonably support, and we usually do not include images below the BTS section, because it just looks bad in most cases. And we don't need to include every single image available of a subject as long as the images in the article illustrate everything that needs to be shown, and there's very little in this RECG image that isn't already demonstrated in the other images. But I've thrown your image is in there for the hell of it. Enjoy. Toprawa and Ralltiir 02:25, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm grateful for the special consideration! Dangerdan97 02:37, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
