X-wing pilot names
I would be grateful if you would add the p[ilot names in the appropriate articles. For example, I just added Samuel Raider et al in the Intrepid article, guided by their own articles. Since you have read the guide, it will be easier for you. MoffRebus 21:56, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Will do. Green tentacle 10:39, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Background info fom the X-wing storyline is really the best thing I could (not) think. Thank you!!! MoffRebus 09:14, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Hey, which mission was that with the Talon? Was it Farlander's First Mission in the historical ones? MoffRebus 23:32, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah, the strategy guide goes into a lot of detail on that one then says that a simplified version (without boarding Talon) was added to historical combat afterwards. Green tentacle 08:13, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Capital ships
Check this out List of capital ships in X-wing games. Your cleanup is required

Relentless
Can you add some info here? Relentless (Sunaj IV) MoffRebus 02:01, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I've added all I can. The story part of the strategy guide ends after tour 3 so I've only been able to expand on the missions, and the fact that Farlander flew in them. Green tentacle 08:20, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Articles for ship names
You have removed the article of the Ship Mercy in it's article. But Wookieepedia rules say that ship names should be used with article. See Manual_of_Style. Pi8ch 08:56, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry, you're quite right. We used to do it without the definite article but they changed it in June and I hadn't looked at the Manual of Style since. Green tentacle 09:16, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Ok - thanks for the info. I wondered why so many Ship articles do not use the article. ;-) Another question from a non-native English speaker: I thought in English shipnames are always used with articles anyway? Pi8ch 09:47, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Honestly, I don't know. I have heard them used a lot, but I think people in the Navy generally don't use the definite article. I'm not sure whether there's a rule on it, English is a funny language and I never got taught grammar in school (we did more on grammar in French and German than in English). Green tentacle 10:06, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Hehe. At least in German the article would be used. In addition in German ships are always feminine as well. You know: The sailor's bride.... ;-). Well ok - then we simply follow the wookiee rules! Pi8ch 10:16, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Vandelizum
Hope it was ok what I did, reverting all of them and all. thanks for youe help. Is he banned? -- Jabbathehuttgartogg   10:42, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I've added him to the vandalism in progress list so an admin should notice it soon. Green tentacle 10:48, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Leaving?!
Shame or not a shame, that's debatable. And who's being shamed, that's debateable too.

Well, at least AtaruMaster is going a nice job of convincing me to stay...*sighs*...Wookiepedia. So addictive, yet excruciatingly painful and irritating.

Cheers,  Relentless Recusant  23:05, 16 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I can think of a few things that fit that description. Glad to hear he's convincing you to stay, we might not always agree with each other but the wiki's better if we all manage to work together. Well, it's the middle of the night here so I'd better go to bed. Green tentacle 23:15, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Thank you
Thank you for wishing me happy birthday, I appreciate it.  Jaina Solo  Goddess Stuff 12:41, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

Template: Mon Calamari starship classes
Well, I wasn't done by the time that you moved it. It was still a bit screwy, but I revamped the new one.

Thanks!!

Cheers,

Hey! That picture looks a lot better than before. Thanks for letting me know! 22:25, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

X-wing pics
Definitely yes! I don'thave the docs any more so the task has to fall on you MoffRebus 09:12, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks
How arrogant of them! But thanks for the heads-up, I thought it was like Wikipedia, where either is accepted. . .  .  .  12:00, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for all your 'cooperation' in the X-wing (operation strike fear, ship names etc) articles. I started entering every sole ship appearing by playing, but the work would not be finished without you!!! Thanks to you I have also hintbook information MoffRebus 22:36, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
 * You're welcome. The book certainly makes it easier, with a canonical description of each mission (so you can actually say which ships Farlander destroyed) and a list of all ships in every mission. It'll take me forever to get through it all though! Green Tentacle (Talk) 18:59, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

(Delete as appropriate) Thank you for your welcome. I look forward to enhaning my limited knowledge of the SW universe here - although am unlikely to make any but the most simplistic changes, due to a distinct lack of source material!!! Still, thanks anyway!DAAdshead 15:56, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Thanks. I'm just glad you took care of Category:Females or I'd be at it forever! Green Tentacle (Talk) 13:51, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
