Mara Jade
Hi Grunny I noticed the Mara Jade Skywalker aricle neads to be brought up to standerds to matain it's featured article status. It is one of my favorite articles and I want to help. Can you please give me a list of exacly whats wrong with it so I can fix it. Thanks!  Galen Merik Talk page 16:06, December 31, 2009 (UTC)

Thank you
In case three of these just weren't enough for you, I'm giving you a fourth. Couldn't think of a better way to thank you for all the AC maintenance work you've done since joining our ranks. Since your admission to the AC last March 22, you have voluntarily archived 112 of 527 total archived noms (assuming my math is right) for the year 2009, far more than anyone else. This is unglamorous grunt work, but it doesn't have to be thankless. So, on behalf of myself and the entire AC, thank you for taking on such a valued leadership role. Toprawa and Ralltiir 23:25, January 14, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, I forgot to log in before. But I was just wondering what was wrong with my edits on the Jedi Student. Thanks for answering. Keep up the good work. Kit Fischer.

The Star Wars Custom Miniature Database
Excuse me,

Exactly why did you delete the page titled "The Star Wars Custom Miniature Database?"
 * Hi. I deleted that page for the reason described in the summary "Unverified for over 7 days." It was tagged with Notability meaning it needed to have verification of notability otherwise it would be deleted in one weeks time. It was past the one week mark so it was deleted. Cheers, Grunny  ( Talk ) 02:57, January 18, 2010 (UTC)

AWB
Grunny, any chance you can run my Kota subpage through an AWB check with an eye towards the linking? I'm still at an early stage with AWB features, and figure you have a better set of clean up settings already in place :P Thanks in advance, Cavalier One ( Squadron channel ) 23:36, January 19, 2010 (UTC)

Re: WOTM
Thanks, Grunny. I'm fine with the decision, Kasra is a very good user and definitely deserves to be WOTM.  Pranay Sobusk  ~  Talk  17:22, February 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the kind words. I have no problem with a tie, Pranay is a supurb user. Been out of action for a couple days due to a snowstorm here, but I'm back, so... Thanks once again!--16:36, February 2, 2010 (UTC)

Hello. I was just wondering where you place a userbox to be voted on (e.g. Userbox Proposals). I have one that I would like to place on which ever page it is. Thanks! =) Construction   Worker    Do you need help?  18:26, February 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Alright, thanks! =)

Busy
Does have Administrator Calievier One it busy. Always when I am asking something to him, he never react. I understand that people have it busy, but he never react. Do you know why?--Station7 22:44, February 7, 2010 (UTC)

Quick!
Hey, Grunny,

Do you have a quick moment to meet me in IRC? —Tommy 9281  ( Mechno-chair ) 05:40, February 10, 2010 (UTC)

Image requests
Hey Grunny, can you please upload a few images for me? These are for "Bantha" Rawk's article. After I'm done adding these images, I would greatly appreciate it if you could do a pre-nom review for the article, so that nothing is missing. Thanks for your help, Grunny.--Jedi Kasra (comlink) 17:33, February 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * The image of Rawk and K'Kruhk from issue 26.
 * The image of Rawk and the armored Azlyn Rae in issue 35.
 * The image of Rawk from the Legacy Era Campaign Guide.

 * Thank you for the images, Grunny. When you get back from you Wookieevacation, can you do a pre-nom review? Thanks.--Jedi Kasra (comlink) 15:14, February 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * Also, could you upload an image of a sketch of Rawk from Legacy 0 or Legacy 0½?--Jedi Kasra (comlink) 15:25, February 12, 2010 (UTC)

Mission to Mustafar
Me and JangFett have come to the conclusion that the Second Mission to Mustafar article should be under "Mission to Mustafar", as that is the correct canonical name. I think First Mission to Mustafar can either remain as it is, or be renamed Skirmish on Mustafar or Rescue on Mustafar. DjMack 20:26, February 15, 2010 (UTC)

Korriban zombie
Hey Gruns :p I was wondering if you could check The Essential Atlas to see what it says about the zombies. Also, there is a very remote possibility that they may be mentioned in Shadows of Mindor in relation to Dathka Graush. If you could check that too, I would appreciate it. Thanks so much. Cylka  -talk- 04:47, February 20, 2010 (UTC)

Interferring
Dear Grunny: I was working on what was going on with Strike-class medium cruiser Ironhand, upon realising I made a few mistakes I was attempting to correct them. However, you then redirected the article while I was making the appropriate alterations, causing me to lose the data I had inputted on the article. I'm currently trying to find it right now. (Admiral jolyon 23:45, February 22, 2010 (UTC))
 * Unable to recover lost data. The data I was looking had to be inputted again manually. Please be careful next time. (Admiral jolyon 23:56, February 22, 2010 (UTC))
 * You're the one who marked the article for deletion, and so I took appropriate action. If you had been more careful and edited the correct article in the first place, there wouldn't be an issue. Grunny  ( Talk ) 00:02, February 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * Grunny, what you just said, in my opinion, was extremely RUDE! What I wanted to know is what to do to prevent this sort of thing in the future during my contributions to Wookieepedia, I can understand that I probably shouldn't have put the Template "Delete" too early while I was in the process of making my corrections but saying that "I" should be more careful, to me, does feel hyprocritical, if you'll parden me saying so. Look, I can learn from my own mistakes in the process of contributions, but what I don't want is to be talked to in a manner that makes me think that you believe that I don't know anything about how Wookieepedia works.(Admiral jolyon 23:03, February 23, 2010 (UTC))
 * Well I'm sorry you thought it was rude, but I was just stating the facts. You created an article, which you yourself had previously created. You then marked it for deletion, without taking a copy of your work. I took appropriate action and moved the page to the right title and then you accused me of interfering. Now what you should have done instead is simply ask if I or another administrator could retrieve that information you wanted for you, which we can do, but instead you proceeded to tell me to be careful in future, hence my response. Grunny  ( Talk ) 23:12, February 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * I understand and I also wish to apologise. I didn't know that you could've retreived it. I also didn't mean to accuse you, I was tired while I was doing the article. (Admiral jolyon 10:16, February 24, 2010 (UTC))
 * No problem. I understand how annoying and frustrating it can be to lose your work. Grunny  ( Talk ) 12:33, February 24, 2010 (UTC)

Help
Hi Grunny,Im new hear so can I ask you some quetions? Firstly I read the user page policy and I think my page complys but can you look it over real quick and tell me if anything is out of order. Also, can you semi-protect my user page so only registerd users can edit it? If their's any thing you need done I will most certianly try my best to help. Thank you.

Question
Hey man I was wondering if you could help me with two things. First, I'm going to change that page Solo Slide to a disambiguation page because the Solo Slide mentioned in Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor is completely different from the one mentioned in Abyss. So my thing is how do I move the history from the current exsisting page to the new one. Second do you know, or know someone who knows, how edit the little info boxes found at the bottom of certain articles? For example the ones that can be found at the bottom of event in the Second Galactic Civil War and dates. Thanks Apotheoses Jedi 16:14, 28 February 2010 (UTC-6)

Re:Re-Help
Thank you, I will fix it right away.  General Kenobi comlink 21:44, March 1, 2010 (UTC)

Vessa Brentioch/articl recreation
Shouldn't this article have been kept? It passes the notability test, it has a CUSWE page. I remember someone once said that CUSWE isn't a source, so I didn't know whether or not to place it under External links and remove the Verify template, fearing I would get in trouble (I feared it might be tacked onto my pre-existing warnings, even though they were in my early days, nearly two years ago, when I was less clear on the site's guidelines). On top of that, I do not fully understand what's meant by "Feel free to create a new version, if it's appropriate for the wiki" as seen on deleted articles. If you could clear this up for me, that would be really awesome. --Darth Shohet 22:54, March 10, 2010 (UTC)

TCSWE entries
Hello there Grunny, I'm Bonbondoodle. I noticed that you often look up entries in varies reference material for other users, so I was wondering if you could help me find a few entries for projects I'm doing right now. The include: Conqueror-class atmospheric dreadnaught, Impavid, Nadiem (or possibly Battle of Nadiem), and Zephata'ru'tor. Thank you, and I understand that, as an admin, you might not have time to look any of these up. Bonbondoodle

B-series
As B-series battle droid is now confirmed in TCWCG, would you be so kind as to restore Category:Images of B-series battle droids. and I are undertaking the restoring of the information from all the pages and files it was removed from, and I've asked Tope to restore the B-series article and all it's revisions, which I'll then move to B-series battle droid as it's called in TCWCG.

A little help please
I'm trying to post something on a talk page and it keeps getting blocked saying "linking to external image hosting sites is blocked" but there is no link anywhere in my edit to an external site. And now somehow it saved my edit by removing the rest of the talk page and the same error is preventing me from reverting it. -  JMAS  Jolly Trooper.png Hey, it's me! 14:51, April 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Fixed. The page contained a link to imageshack hence it triggered the filter. If that warning appears just ctrl+f for imageshack and photobucket and replace the start of the url with {removed due to abuse filter}. Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 14:54, April 1, 2010 (UTC)

Upload form
Hi there,

I'm an administrator at a couple of Wikia wikis, and I was curious as to how Wookieepedia got its customized Upload form to work. At a wiki I maintain as a sandbox, I attempted to implement it the same way this Wiki has, via MediaWiki:Upload.js imported from MediaWiki:Common.js, but I couldn't get it to work. is there something else I'm missing?

Thanks for your time, ~ Michael von Preußen (voicemail)
 * It doesn't even change the form at all. The form itself can be viewed at w:c:neukolumbia:Special:Upload. I transferred both MediaWiki:Upload.js and MediaWiki:Functions.js over, as well as the code from MediaWiki:Common.js that I figured may be relevant.  I browsed through the scripts individually to see if there were any specific references to Wookieepedia that could void the script if they were not altered appropriately, but couldn't find any save for one which was in a description comment.  The main reason I'm wondering about all this is because my home wiki is really a mess as far as appropriately-licensed images go, and I'm trying to clean it up (unaided, of course, by all the "improvements" to Wikia that allow people to upload untagged images in brand new places).  Thanks again. ~ Michael von Preußen (voicemail)
 * Oh, wow, I dunno how I missed that. Thank you very much! ~ Michael von Preußen (voicemail)

Hey, Grunny. Sorry to bother you, but I've encountered a problem on my wiki, Mass Effect Fanon.

Templates
Hey Grunny, I had two template questions for you. The first is in regards to the new law infobox&mdash;not that it makes a whole lot of difference, but I always thought the side-by-side "support" and "opposition" fields were much more aesthetically pleasing. I like the new box, but if those could be placed side-by-side once more, it would be perfect. I would do this myself but I'm completely incapable of attempting to script a functioning template. On a different but related note, I was wondering if you could help me make a template for treaties and other government documents that are outside of voted-upon laws. This could include constitutions, declarations, etc. I attempted to work on a version of such a template here by editing the original law infobox temp. If you could help me make it a functioning template, that would be very much appreciated. Thanks so much! Darth Trayus ( Trayus Academy ) 09:27, April 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your help, Grunny. :)  CC7567  (talk) 17:22, April 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for adjusting the law infobox, it looks much better now. As for the government documents infobox, do you think it would be best to have one template specifically for treaties and another for constitutions and the like? Because I feel like treaties should have two separate "party" fields as I've done on the subpage, but regular documents would only have a single field for the specific government that established it. Aside from that, these boxes should also have "Date proposed," "Conflict," a "Terms," and "Key Individuals" as fields. Thanks for your help, and let me know what you think abou the "parties" field.

Template
Hey Grunny, I gave the treaty template another go on my subpage, and I think its the best I'll be able to do. I did it by editing the Duel infobox, and all the fields are there in the basic order that they should be (if I edited the thing correctly). If you could give it a look and let me know what you think, or any pointers on how to fix it up and get it working, that would be much appreciated. Thanks! Darth Trayus ( Trayus Academy ) 22:11, May 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * So I finally made the template, but there's one problem. As you can see here, for some reason the "terms" field pushes the text to the right half of the infobox. Do you have any idea how to correct this? Darth Trayus ( Trayus Academy ) 22:56, May 8, 2010 (UTC)

Treaty infobox
I wonder if it wouldn't be easier to make 4 separate "Terms" sections so that the terms for each side can be more neatly arranged. What do you think? -  JMAS  Jolly Trooper.png Hey, it's me! 23:26, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oops, meant to put this on Trayus's talk page. -  JMAS  Jolly Trooper.png Hey, it's me! 23:28, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the fix, and as far as this goes, I think it would be best to keep it in one field, as the terms would be across the board, and they don't always fit into a single faction. Like bringing a war to an end would apply to all factions. Darth Trayus ( Trayus Academy ) 23:29, May 8, 2010 (UTC)

Administrator harassment/impartiality
Hey there Grunny,

I'd appreciate it if you could take a look at Toprawa and Ralltiir's deletion of Forum:NB: Personal Attacks, claiming I was "whining" when I filed a complaint about personal attacks he made against me. Perhaps there's just an exceeding lack of oversight here, but administrators deleting complaints made about their conduct seems like an astounding conflict of interest to me.

Cheers, ~ Michael von Preußen (voicemail)
 * I don't see the issue, to be honest. You arrived on the wiki, and while you started off asking for clarification, you moved to calling our rules stupid and accusing Toprawa of incivility when you yourself were being uncivil. Coming from someone who has not spent a lot of time editing on this wiki, and so become familiar with how things have worked here successfully for many years, it's likely to get people's backs up and make them less likely to reply with good humor. Toprawa was reacting to your less than good intentioned messages, and I don't see any outright personal attack in any of his messages. I do, however, see a rather blatant one against our editors in your most recent post on his talk page. Grunny  ( talk ) 23:23, May 11, 2010 (UTC)

Search Bar
Hey, I was wondering if any progress was made regarding the autocomplete in Monobook's search bar. SinisterSamurai 22:20, May 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * I just took my first look at it. Since the auto-complete is working on other wikis in monobook, I'm assuming it's our problem. As such, it is most likely some conflicting code, I'll try to find the cause of it. I've started cleaning up our monobook code, and see how that goes. Grunny  ( talk ) 23:23, May 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for looking into it. Let me know if you fix it. SinisterSamurai 18:20, May 19, 2010 (UTC)

Zam Wesell: Star Edit Wars
Terrific. Alright... My stated reasons for changing out the Zam Wesell character portrait:
 * Another edit war, eh?

"Given that her vast appearances in Star Wars were in her human guise, it's probably fitting that her main character portrait be of her human guise rather than her Clawdite form" Your stated reason for changing it back to her Clawdite form:

"No, the Clawdite picture is her true form, therefore the most representative"

while both rationales seem reasonable, is there a particular instruction from the Wookiepedia manual-of-style indicative of why the second rationale ought precede the first rationale? <font color="Red" face="Arial Rounded MT Bold">MercWithMouth <font color="Green" face="Arial Rounded MT Bold">TalkPage 09:53, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't see one undo as an edit war :P. But onto the image, no, it isn't in the manual of style, more a long accepted convention. Just like you wouldn't present the infobox image of a character in disguise which is effectively what this is. The Clawdite image is Zam as she really is and so represents her most accurately. Regardless, I would suggest talking this over with who took this article to featured status and put a lot of thought into choosing the best infobox image which was used when the article was voted on. Hope that explains my undo at least. Cheers,  Grunny  ( talk ) 09:59, May 19, 2010 (UTC)

Lol. Actually, yes. It does. I sorta wish you had said that earlier. Tell you what... I'm still gonna continue to make a few edits on the Zam Wesell article -- within reason of course -- but, I will do as you asked and also bring the matter before the one fellow, "Jedimasterfiolli". I'll give him direct links to both versions of the article (I've been changing out more than just the one portrati), and hopefully the matter can come to quiet close from there. On a related note... Despite her relative obscurity in Star Wars, I'm actually a fairly ardent fan of Zam Wesell. Reason being...? The trade paperbacks she was featured in during 2002 alongside Jango Fett. The trade paperbacks did quite a bit to explore her personality. In addition, it was her 'human guise' that was the basis of the StarWars.com poll for sexiest female in Star Wars. (the others being Leia, Padme, and Shak Ti). Give the books a read if you're so able. They were well-written. <font color="Red" face="Arial Rounded MT Bold">MercWithMouth <font color="Green" face="Arial Rounded MT Bold">TalkPage 10:10, May 19, 2010 (UTC)

A trade publication is writing a story about how user-generated articles are becoming more valuable than paid-for articles, and they wanted to know if we had any users who might be interested in talking to them about their experiences with Wikia. Is this something you would be interested in doing? If so could you please email me at sena at wiki-inc.com. I'll need your Name, Email, Phone number and geographic location. Thanks for your time, and please let me know either way. <font color="Blue">Sena 16:56, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * a quick note from our PR person,

1) Wikia won't give personal contact info to a reporter. I can arrange an interview where we use a dial in number and everyone dials into the call. We do need their real name and most likely the city/state where they live.  They may be asked their profession, but that can be vague ("I'm in finance." "I'm in education." etc..) 2) The interview will focus on why they like using Wikia sites and what motivates them, keeps them engaged, etc. 3) From a time investment standpoint, the call with me will be about 30 minutes, and the call with the reporter will take 15-20 minutes. 4) I will be on the call with the reporter and can "shield" them if needed. That said, I've worked with this reporter before, and find him to be professional and above board, and don't expect any probing questions. Plus, he's very positive about Wikia.

If this is OK with them, I can then spend time discussing the details of the interview via phone.

let me know if this is something you could help with. <font color="Blue">Sena 18:49, May 18, 2010 (UTC)

Dahl
I wanted to get your opinion on the main images. I still plan to improve the article and nom it for the FA's, BTW. Anyway, is the actual article's current image better suited for the infobox, compared to the one I have here? As I said, I will work on her article, don;t be surprised if I come to you for a few more issues regarding her article, as space battles aren't exactly my area of expertise.--Jedi Kasra (comlink) 13:04, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * I think the new one you have on your subpage is better, as it shows her face clearly without the helmet. Grunny  ( talk ) 13:08, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * That's what I was thinking, thanks. Let me know if you need anything.--Jedi Kasra (comlink) 13:09, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah, almost forgot, if you get the chance, could you please review Vydel Dir'Nul and Rawk?--Jedi Kasra (comlink) 13:10, May 20, 2010 (UTC)

Procedural CT
Hey, Grunny. Just letting you know that we've tweaked the wording of the CT on procedure so that a reply is not required. The new wording features this clause removed from option one: "All users who have cast votes prior to the desired change to be included are directly contacted and have expressed either their approval or rejection of said change by commenting under their vote, or the alteration to the vote is rendered invalid." Thanks. &mdash; Fiolli  {Alpheridies University ComNet} 19:54, May 21, 2010 (UTC)

Rollbackin' Skippy
Yay! Thank you for the notice. I intend to make good use of these newfound powers that I have been with, honoring the faith you twenty-nine have placed on me. I'm humbled by this new honor and I appreciate it. I'd still like to add: Yay! (again). Skippy Farlstendoiro 07:00, May 27, 2010 (UTC)

Wikia Star Wars at the top of the page
Hi Grunny, I'm from Lostpedia. I was wondering if you knew how you have changed the wikia branding of the Wiki to say Wikia - Star Wars instead of Wikia - Entertainment. Thanks. -- 01:02, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

vandalism
What you said about me vandalising... I haven't made an edit since September 2009. Could it be a server fault, hacker? I'm A Hydroponic Tomato! Bigredrabbit (talk to me) 08:40, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

Dialogue implementation
Hey Grunny. Is your bot ready with the <tt>attr=</tt> / <tt>src=</tt> stuff? If so, I could start implementing the rest of the new template. If not, could you possibly send me a message or contact me on IRC when Dr. Ball is ready? Thanks. -- 1358  (Talk) 12:29, June 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * The script is written, but my connection at the moment isn't letting it run to the best it can :(. I'll try to get to it tomorrow from another connection, and I'll let you know when it's all finished :). Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 12:34, June 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, sure, I understand your problem. ;) I tried to check through the whatlinkshere to dialogue, but there's like 1000 links so I decided to let Dr. Ball handle it. :) -- 1358  (Talk) 12:36, June 8, 2010 (UTC)

Mett Habble, CSWE
Hey, Grun. Wondering if you might be able to answer a Q using CSWE. Under Habble, Mett, does it list him as a leader of the Naboo Underground or the Naboo Resistance? SinisterSamurai 04:52, June 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'll check when I get home in a few hours :). Grunny  ( talk ) 04:54, June 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay. Thanks for the info. :) Last one: What does it say about Galak? (Note: not Fyyar, Galak.)-SinSamSupaMan
 * Galak: A dark-skinned young man, he was a student at the Royal House of learning in the city of Theed on his homeworld of Naboo. Galak also was a volunteer member of the Royal Security Force, and had been trained by Captain Panaka himself. When the Trade Federation invaded his planet, Galak joined the Naboo underground with many of his classmates, supplementing his official duties with clandestine missions for the resistance. &mdash; volume 1, page 312 Grunny  ( talk ) 14:13, June 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks, again. Another dead end, but worth checking. :) SinisterSamurai 14:51, June 12, 2010 (UTC)

License
Hey Grunny, I need to know the license that pics on the wiki have to go under if they were taken by myself from a downloaded file.-- SalmanH  (Talk)  10:20, June 13, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks Grunny.-- SalmanH  (Talk)  05:33, June 14, 2010 (UTC)

Hi Grunny sorry to bother you again but we've finally reached 100 articles and eligible for a spotlight but can you do me a favor and tell me what you think of it and if there's anything we should take care of before hand.-- SalmanH  (Talk)  19:31, June 15, 2010 (UTC)

Review
Hey Grunny. Would you remind reviewing Rawk, please? Thanks.-- 00:17, June 18, 2010 (UTC)

Disable popups
Hey there, Browncoat! I saw you disabled the create page and the image thumbnail popups via MediaWiki:Monaco.js. I'd like to do it as well on Combine OverWiki, but a simple copy/paste doesn't work. What did I miss?... Klow 13:23, June 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi Klow. There's nothing wrong with the what you've added and it should work. The issue will either be really bad caching, which is probably unlikely, or you have something elsewhere that's breaking, i.e. you have something dodgy in your MediaWiki:Common.js that's causing that code not to work. Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 21:22, June 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah. But I wouldn't know what. Do you see something weird here?... Klow 08:16, June 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hey there, could you help me fix this?... :( Klow 09:30, July 1, 2010 (UTC)

Ambush in Cloud City
Hi, Grunny! I would like to ask you to look for any info about Ambush in Cloud City in TCSWE. I don't think it would appear, but worth a try at Bossk, Lando, Cloud City or Dominic Raynor. Any help is much appreciated.Darth Morrt 07:56, June 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * Nothing about it in any of those entries. Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 09:07, June 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks Darth Morrt 09:08, June 25, 2010 (UTC)

Redirect page deletion
Could you be willing to restore Nysillin farm as a redirect page please. The farm is only called Akira in the just-released TCW Character Encyclopedia. There is more probability of people searching for "Nysillin farm" than Akira due to the fact that the episode openly states they are growing Nysillin as their crop, and also calls it a farm (as does the Episode Guide). Thanks. -  JMAS  Jolly Trooper.png Hey, it's me! 12:08, June 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Teach me to post anything before I've finished my first morning cup of coffee. *face-palm* -  JMAS  Jolly Trooper.png Hey, it's me! 12:09, June 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Haha no worries :P. Grunny  ( talk ) 12:10, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Section header line
Grunny, since you're well versed and connected in these matters, do you know why the Monaco skin is now displaying the line in the section header above the text in the section title rather than below it? Looks rather stupid to me. Monobook still displays it below the text, however. - Cavalier One ( Squadron channel ) 13:25, June 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks Grunny; thought it was probably some Wikia test or something. Glad they reverted it. - Cavalier One FarStar Logo.jpg( Squadron channel ) 07:26, July 1, 2010 (UTC)
