Satine
Hey Dolphin. I just wanted to let you know that I am impressed by your ambition, but also wanted to offer you some guidance. I see that you've started working on Satine Kryze, an article that will be rather large and difficult to write comprehensively, given her appearances as of now and her future appearances. I've noticed that you've attempted to FA a number of articles recently, all of which have been removed. Considering that you're a relatively new and inexperienced editor, I wanted to offer you some advice&mdash;starting with smaller articles, or even on the GAN page, is a great way to build experience so that you can tackle the larger tasks and prevent your upcoming nominations from being removed. If you want any help with any article, let me know, but again, I would recommend that you hold of on Satine and start with a smaller character or event that you're really interested in. That'll show the inq that you're interested in learning as opposed to just doing, and encourage them to give your nominations more of a chance. I had planned on improving Satine in the coming weeks, once her future appearances were either confirmed or denied for the continuing season, and am still interested in working on her. Again, let me know if you have any questions, and good luck with your future endeavors. Darth Trayus ( Trayus Academy ) 05:08, October 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * The problem with that is that the Inq has very little tolerance for nominations that are just "nice projects." The possibility of having it removed shouldn't be an acceptable outcome for any nominator&mdash;it's a waste of both your time and the time of the reviewers. Darth Trayus ( Trayus Academy ) 18:10, October 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hey Dolphin, I would be more than happy to work on Satine&mdash;I'll let you know when the article's about complete and maybe you could help me address some objections to fine tune her. That way you could put the FA promotion template on your page as well. And, as always, let me know if you want any help or advise on another article you choose to try and promote.

Tarko
You've been told before not to edit an article with an Inuse or WIP template on it. I shouldn't have to tell you again. I am perfectly capable of updating an article by myself. Grand Moff Tranner (Comlink) 23:15, October 27, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Did you know
As far as I know, there isn't any policy regarding who gets to edit Did You Know, not even for approval of new additions to it. However, I would recommend asking someone more familiar with it, as I'm not one of those people. Hope that helps.  CC7567  (talk) 09:06, October 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Per WP:SPOILER, yes, it is.  CC7567  (talk) 00:24, October 30, 2010 (UTC)

WP:RWM
Hello Dolph. I just wanted to invite you to WP:RWM. If you don't wanna join, no prob. ttyl! MasterFred (Whatever) 00:44, November 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Alrighty. However, if you're still working on Battle of Endor, you might want to add some stuff on the music used during the battle scenes and maybe the concert suite The Forest Battle. I think it would be useful to any Star Wars music enthusiasts out there who read the article. MasterFred Commerce Guild.svg(Whatever) 01:27, November 3, 2010 (UTC)

Quotes
hey Dolphin, please be very careful when adding/changing quotes on articles; remember that quotes should be relevant to the section where you place them. The quote you put under the "Foundation of the Tribe" section in Lost Tribe of Sith had absolutely nothing to do with the Foundation of the Tribe, and was thus inappropriate. Also make sure the quotes are accurate. In your recent edit to Fel Empire, the quote you added as the lead quote was inaccurate. While your endeavors to add quotes to articles are appreciated, please take care that the quotes you add are relevant and accurate. Thank you. Jonjedigrandmaster ( Talk ) 02:39, November 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks a lot, I was actually looking for good quotes for the Lost Tribe article but couldn't find any good ones, so that's why I used the less accurate one instead. That helped me.-- ID-21 Dolphin  DolphinJedi.png(Talk) 03:01, November 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the delayed reply, I've been very busy with school lately. Anyway, if you can't find any applicable quotes, I'd suggest not adding a quote at all. It's better to have a section go quote-less than to force in a completely unrelated quote, as you did in this instance. Jonjedigrandmaster  ( Talk ) 04:18, November 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK. Make sure you write the Vortex articles since the book comes out tomorrow!-- ID-21 Dolphin  DolphinJedi.png(Talk) 12:27, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Update tag
The update tag will be removed when the article is finished. It is currently under review by several Inqs to ensure that it maintains its status as a quality featured article. As for adding quotes and the like - not all sections need to have quotes. Sometimes, there is no appropriate quote so the section is left blank. Inappropriate quotes are worse than no quotes. Inappropriate and badly placed quotes will be removed. In regards to images - the images in the article have been chosen for a reason, to compliment the text. Unless the images you propose are higher quality versions of the existing images, these too will be removed. - Cavalier One ( Squadron channel ) 11:12, November 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * I suggest you stop harassing Cavalier One about the Kota article. All you're waiting for is a chance to get into the article and change around all the quotes and images to your liking. I'm going to repeat verbatim what he's already told you: Sometimes, there is no appropriate quote so the section is left blank. Inappropriate quotes are worse than no quotes. Inappropriate and badly placed quotes will be removed. In regards to images - the images in the article have been chosen for a reason, to compliment the text. Unless the images you propose are higher quality versions of the existing images, these too will be removed. When he and the Inqs he's requested to look at the updates are finished with the article, the inuse tag will be removed. Until that time, give it a break and go find something else to do.

Profile image
Hi ID-21 Dolphin, as you may know i'm new to wikia. I had a question. How do you upload a icon picture for your profile. Beacause i don't like the ones it gives you to pick. Please answer my question as soon as possible. Thanks!

Hi I looked for the preferance option but there wasn't any option now. Was the preferance thing only an option before? I'm glad you answered my question but like i said there is no preferance option. By the way my favorite animal is a dolphin. I hope you can get back to my question as soon as possible. Thanks agian CloneCody!

hi

Hi ID-21 Dolphin. I just saw the picture you uploaded of Rham Kota. It looks pretty cool! I was wondering do you have the Force Unleashed 2? Please respond. CloneCody!174.31.176.70 04:57, December 5, 2010 (UTC)

Mara Jade
Hey Dolphin, just wanted to ask one more time that you ask another user or on an article's talk page before you make major changes to an FA or a GA. I personally had no problem with the quote change you made to Mara's legacy section, but other users might; and furthermore, the quote you added was not quoted correctly. Jonjedigrandmaster ( Talk ) 01:37, December 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * There shouldn't be a problem with the Calrissian/Skywalker section quotes; they fit fine and there were none there before. And honestly, the main reason I reverted the legacy quote was because it was quoted and sourced incorrectly. But it would still be better to ask on the talk page first every time for adding/changing quotes or images on status articles, even if you don't always get a response. That way, if someone complains about you making the change after the fact, you can point to the talk page and say: "Well, I did ask." :P Jonjedigrandmaster  ( Talk ) 02:14, December 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * There was a punctuation error, and you sourced it to Sacrifice. Jonjedigrandmaster  ( Talk ) 02:44, December 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's in Abyss. She says it to Ben and Luke when they see her beyond shadows. Jonjedigrandmaster  ( Talk ) 02:54, December 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Here's the quote in correct format: "It's not about the legacy you leave, it's about the life you live."

- Mara Jade Skywalker Jonjedigrandmaster ( Talk ) 03:02, December 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ooh, that's too bad you had that spoiled for you; if it makes you feel any better, it was spoiled for me too when a user added his death date to his article without putting a majorspoiler tag up, a couple days before the official release of the novel. :( Jonjedigrandmaster  ( Talk ) 03:09, December 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, check this out. Jonjedigrandmaster  ( Talk ) 00:49, December 9, 2010 (UTC)

Another warning
You've been told before not to make major changes to Featured Articles without first consulting the nominator or discussing the proposed change on the talk page. Archiving those warnings does not mean you can just ignore them. Grand Moff Tranner (Comlink) 00:26, December 13, 2010 (UTC)

Hi ID-21, we haven't talked in a while. I wanted to tell you i figured out how to upload a picture! My current picture is of a Clone cadet who I don't really know about. I also wanted to know how you made your Jedi/Dolphin symbol. Thanks again, CloneCody!CloneCody 01:45, December 14, 2010 (UTC)

Hi ID-21, I wanted to ask you how to post pictures. I don't know thw steps to post a picture. So if you can please tell me the steps. Thanks again.CloneCody 05:23, December 18, 2010 (UTC)
