Picture of Xim
A long while ago you posted in Talk:Xim:
 * Does anyone have the old WEG standard sourcebook? There is a drawn collage in it of many characters, including Xim. It would be a great scan.

Do you know if that's The Star Wars Sourcebook or the Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game rulebook? I was hoping to ask around TFN, and it would help to know where. - Lord Hydronium 07:41, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm fairly certin it was the 1994 version (2nd edition) of the Star Wars Sourcebook. IIRC, the figure is not explicitly named as Xim, but he's surrounded by images from that period, and looks like a guy named "Xim the Despot". G'luck! --SparqMan 17:20, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks. - Lord Hydronium 00:15, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I just looked through it, and I can't find any pictures that aren't from the original trilogy period. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 00:45, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Did the find the big two page montage spread? Perhaps I gave the wrong book. --SparqMan 02:27, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

Weapons categorization
Hey, I noticed you've been re-categorizing some the weapons&mdash;excellent, that's been needing to be done for a while. I proposed some major changes to the entire category's categorization over at Category talk:Weapons, so if you could throw in some input we could get on the same page, so to speak. Thanks.

The Naming Conventions consensus track needs your computer skills. Here. Thanks!--Erl 01:39, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Could you open the Bulwark battlecruiser page?
I found a quote by Dan Wallace some time ago, regarding the different models, and would like to put that in a bts section. Problem is, the article has been locked for months (due to a persistant troll), so I would like it reopened. :) VT-16 11:52, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Unlocked. QuentinGeorge 12:06, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Ship infoboxes
I went ahead and made for named starships. I put it on Reprieve and Avenger as examples. Can you think of anything that should be added or changed, or can I start putting it up in place of redundant boxes? -- Darth Culator 02:48, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Looks pretty good! I'm not sure if "Earliest Sighting" and "Last Sighting" feel too OOU. Also, should an element be introduced for participation in battles? The only other suggestion that comes to mind immediately is the option of including other notable officers/crewers.
 * I figured "earliest sighting" and "latest sighting" were the least OOU I could get. It just felt to me like something that would be included in an IU reference with incomplete information, like a "Jane's Fighting Ships" of the GFFA. Notable crew is easy enough to add, and participation in battles/events seems like a good idea. Anything else it needs? Darth Culator 18:26, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. So we'll assume it means the first time we (as archivists) see it. Add 'em in and maybe make a post in the Senate Hall to gather some feedback before we implement it. --SparqMan 06:15, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

Quick
Block immediately. That account has vandalized Darth Vader and added nonsense to several articles. MyNz 22:00, 5 May 2006 (UTC )

Hurry up! Block that idiot already! MyNz 22:06, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for banning Pjalmsi! We appreciate your help. MyNz 22:09, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, thanks. -- Ozzel 22:10, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I'll say. Thank you indeed! Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 22:11, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

On crack
Please ban User:CapnCrack - he's an On-Wheels maniac. KEJ 16:56, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Thank you, my hero. ;-) KEJ 16:58, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
 * No problemo. Raul666 was blocked too. --SparqMan 17:04, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Establishing a blocking policy
I have started a CT thread about creating a unified blocking policy here. As an admin, your input would be appreciated. Thanks, RMF 01:57, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Scientists
It seems that anyone in that category would be involved in research and development of some type. Also, the category for scientists here is nebulous in definition, anyways. Kuralyov

Screaming Wookiee Squadron

 * I've got a question on Talk:Screaming Wookiee Squadron, if you want to check it out. Jaywin 00:21, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Vandal 66.32.160.115.
Any chance you can ban him soon? He keeps vandalizing Tatooine with his fanon crap. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) 21:44, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

RE:Template box
It is a subpage that I am using as a test for an infobox that I might make widely available once I work out all the bugs. Besides, several users have such infobox templates. Personally, I find the Template to be a better use of space than the fanon BS that most users place within their subpages. Why, is there some sort of problem?--Sentry [ Talk ] 04:18, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

hey
is there some way i can make my artical so that it would not confuse or bring questions of my jedi order? and did you delete my beautiful page?--mas1@ 18:44, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I moved it to your user page. Keep it to a minimum. --SparqMan 19:46, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

LIst of species
Thanks for the link, but there are such obscure species like Aar'aa. Whatever that is. So I take it there is no list; that's okay, i tried to skim the list earlier and got some there. Thanks anyway Nick sponge 20:31, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

I mean major as in seen in the movies. But it's okay, i got a list now. Nick sponge 21:54, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Sorry for leaveing it in a sepret page but i don't know how to reply to your messige
Well I don't remeber the book exactly but my friend knows. I E-Maild him a couple Minuts ago about it so i should get a responce soon. I'll tell you when I find out &mdash;Unsigned comment by Tnu (talk &bull; contribs).

Ah now I see it
Sorry for posting two messiges but i think you might get this one. My friend told me he read the Chandrilla thing in a book but i forget which one it is. if it helps I E-Maild him today and should get a responce soon. I'll tell you than ok? &mdash;Unsigned comment by Tnu (talk &bull; contribs).

CCG fansite related deletions
Hi: CBenoit noticed you deleted several CCG fansite related articles. While I agree that most of those articles were not needed (and have, in fact, disagreed with CBenoit on this point a couple of times), the "Player's Committee"'s role as custodians of the CCG seems to be significant enough to warrant one article. Would you agree that one of those articles could be restored? &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 21:30, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
 * If anything, it should be a section of the CCG page. We need to be wary of becoming a catalog of the Star Wars fan world, rather than the Galaxy Far, Far Away. --SparqMan 14:04, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I agree with you there, but I'd actually prefer to see a Player's Committee page which is completely separate from the main CCG page, in order to avoid confusion between Decipher's original game which produced new canon and the continuing fan efforts which don't. I also think a case could be made for keeping one page on the subject: we've allowed some pages on video game mods and fan sites to stand.  The only VFD discussion on the subject we had back in February suggested merging Virtual Cards and related pages to Players Committee. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 21:15, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't like those mod pages either, but if the users interested can create a concise, informative page that summarizes the entire efforts to sustain the Decipher CCG, let's see where it goes. We do not need endless staff lists and other minutae, however (like this old trash). --SparqMan 21:45, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Since you're an admin, could you check this out?
Apparently some guy named "1upD" is angry because his mod page was deleted and is trolling people. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:Imperial_Assault_II Just thought you should knowCaptJim 16:39, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I've left him a note on his talk page explaining the page's deletion and deleted the old talk page. Let me know if the harassment continues. --SparqMan 21:00, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
