Sith Warrior edit
Not that I disagree with the text your removed, but is a delete that size (-1,119) really a "minor" edit? I'm fairly certain that at the core of the fanon was some hard descriptive information given in BioWare developer articles. (Information which can be re-added from scratch with less bias, of course.) I was simply surprised to see it labeled as "minor". &mdash;fodigg (talk) | 22:48, February 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, ok. I was just surprised is all. I agree that the information you removed was largely fan-gushing. &mdash;fodigg  (talk) | 17:24, February 16, 2010 (UTC)

Death in the Slave Pits of Lorrd
I was wondering if you're a suscriber to Hyperspace? If you are would you do me a favor and let me know what part the droid DV-9 has in Death in the Slave Pits of Lorrd? I'm working on the article on my workbench, and am thinking of GAing it later, which I can't do without the info from the Hyperspace story. Any help would be massively appreciated, thanks. Dr. Kermit ( Complain. ) 00:11, February 20, 2010 (UTC)

Gar Stazi FA Status
Hi Chack! I haven't been an active Wookieepedian in quite awhile, but I noticed that the Gar Stazi article had it FA status removed. I spent some time this morning updating and editing the article in light of Legacy #41 and 42, so I was wondering if the FA status can be restored. I am not sure how Wookieepedia policy in this regard works, but I hope that it will regain it's status. Would I have to submit it for FAN again? Or can admins simply review the article and restore it's status in light of the recent edits I made? Your help is appreciated! AdmiralNick22 19:19, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the advice, Chack. I may wait until after Legacy #47 comes out, since that issue is going to feature alot of Stazi and the GA. AdmiralNick22 19:13, March 2, 2010 (UTC)

"Greek" alphabet
According to The Written Word, alpha, lambda, and delta are all part of the Tionese language. I tried to move Secondary alternate alphabet to Tionese language, but it said only admins could merge or something. Would you mind doing so? Thanks! (If you're a Hyperspace member, the article is located at http://starwars.com/hyperspace/source/writtenword/index.html?page=3). — Milo Fett [Comlink] 20:26, March 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * Great, thanks. — Milo Fett [Comlink] 22:31, March 5, 2010 (UTC)

Query about Sha Koon
Before I made a few changes, I wanted to ask whether or not adding the fact that Dooku was a Count was necessary, as it's removed in the current version of the article.--Jedi Kasra (comlink) 19:40, March 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks, just making sure.--Jedi Kasra (comlink) 22:40, March 7, 2010 (UTC)

Unidentified Car'das pilot
Please undelete this article. This woman is NOT Mara Jade. I have HTTE in front of me now. Paperback edition, page 207:

''The other pilot was talking again. "If you'll hold your present position, X-wing, we'll move up close enough to throw a force cylinder out to you," she said. "Unless you'd rather suit up and spacewalk across."''

So we establish the pilot of the Wild Karrde is female. Now, jump to page 211:

''"Though I can't actually take any of the credit for that. It was one of my associates, Mara Jade, who led us here." His head inclined slightly to his right. "She's on the bridge at the moment."

''He paused, obviously waiting. It could be a setup, Luke knew; but the suggestion that someone might actually have been able to sense his presence from light years away was too intriguing to pass up. Keeping his overall awareness clear, Luke narrowed a portion of his mind to the Wild Karrde 's bridge. At the helm was the young woman he'd spoken to earlier from the X-wing. Beside her, an older man was busy running a calculation through the nav computer. And sitting behind them--

''The jolt of that mind shot through him like an electric current. "Yes, that's her," Karrde confirmed, almost offhandedly.

So Mara cannot be the pilot. Two separate people. Please restore the article. Thanos6 07:10, March 9, 2010 (UTC)

Ruusan and the Number of Battles
Hey Chack, question for you. You ended up moving and extending the number of battles on Ruusan to 8. Would you mind showing me where PoD and EGttF say that there were 8 battles? Or is the issue that these sources claim that there were 7 battles, and then there was one more final battle? Maybe I'm just looking at it wrong, but the EC and other sources seem to only mention 7 battles. Would you mind leading me in the right direction? Also, I noticed that expanding it to eight battles, ends up moving the order. You moved the sixth battle to the seventh, but then you just created a stub for the sixth battle. The problem is that the fourth and the fifth battles should now be moved as well right? (Note: We need to combine the fourth and fifth battles, the articles are using the same images and the quotes are both referring to the same battle) The other problem is that I haven't really read PoD all the way through, so I don't know the exact order. By your recollection, is the order something like this? I know there are conflicts here with PoD, but is this the best way to explain it? I wouldn't mind some clarification of what PoD mentions. Cull Tremayne 07:33, March 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) 1st battle&mdash;From PoD, Sith victory in space
 * 2) 2nd battle&mdash;From PoD, Second Sith victory in space
 * 3) 3rd battle&mdash;From PoD, Jedi victory on the ground
 * 4) 4th battle&mdash;No known info? Must be a Jedi victory
 * 5) 5th battle&mdash;No known info? Must be a Jedi victory
 * 6) 6th battle&mdash;Shown in JvS as a flashback at the beginning of the comic, we're using that image on the 4th and 5th battles, Bane arrives immediately afterward. He talks with a soldier on the battlefield who claims that the battle was glorious and Bane kills him. Meanwhile, Petja reports to Hoth about the battle after he's lost one of his eyes.
 * 7) 7th battle&mdash;Shown in JvS as a huge attack by the Sith using the Force. Kiel Charny is killed by Darovit and defects. Pernicar dies and Farfalla arrives. Bane finds Zannah afterward.
 * 8) Final battle (8th?)&mdash;Farfalla mops up the Sith outside the caves. Kaan activates the thought bomb. End of conflict.
 * Ah, so PoD mentions six battles taking place, and then describes two more battles, which gives us eight? So how are you interpreting the references to seven battles? We don't count the thought bomb battle as part of the seven, I'm guessing? Is it possible that the reference to six battles is mistaken? Especially since we know that the Jedi won five battles? If that were true, then the Sith cannot have won three battles at the time of the sixth battle, since the "seventh" is won by the Sith. I wouldn't mind your suggestions on how to put the order, so at least the articles are consistent with one another. One last thing, you mention that the "glorious battle" could be the 4th, 5th, or 6th. Is that really true? JvS shows only three large battles by my count. The flashback at the beginning before Bane arrives. The battle that begins with the Sith "flunkies", then the Force Storm, and then finally Darovit's defection. The last battle with the thought bomb. So however we're interpreting it, JvS needs to show the last three battles, right? (I know that Pernicar's death messes up the exact flow, but does that mean that two battles can be fit in between the "glorious" one and the Force Storm one?) So by my count, either JvS shows the 5th, 6th, and 7th (if there are 7 battles), or it shows the 6th, 7th, and "8th" (if there are 8 battles). Is that right? Cull Tremayne 02:31, March 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sounds good. Thanks for the help. Cull Tremayne 22:25, March 14, 2010 (UTC)

WCLU
Please reconsider lawyering against me on the GAN page. I am merely trying to do two things: review articles and maintain standards on the wiki. There is no ill intent whatsoever. I explained on the nomination why I asked Trayus to sign his posts, so please have a look at it. Sorry for whatever inconvenience I may have caused you personally, although how it is possible escapes me. Graestan ( Talk ) 14:50, March 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, I am sure Trayus at least would appreciate if you'd direct your energies to getting his GA nominations some AC reviews and votes. They are good stuff. Graestan ( Talk ) 05:12, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

Query
I ploan on nominating Traavis for the GAs, if you look, ther is no P&A. Normally there would be one, except he does not display any abilities or powers in the sources or appearances given. Is this OK, or what?--Jedi Kasra (comlink) 19:47, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

LifeMusic help
Hey! I was wonderin' if you knew how the era icon template worked. I'm trying to get the same thing on my wiki, except I'm using genres. It's located here and here. Thanks and God bless! Master Fredcerique 05:08, March 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for looking. Did you save any changes, 'cause if you did, they're not on the Recent changes page. Anyway, I copied and pasted everything exactly from this site. Then I changed certain links and file names to fit my wiki. I can't find out why it's not working. If you can't figure it out, tell me and I'll ask Green tentacle. Thanks and God bless! Master Fredcerique 21:05, March 12, 2010 (UTC)

Some Motti Information
Hey, Chack. I was reading your Motti article, and you're missing some minor Galaxies information. If you take a look at the Otto article, Motti helped this Imperial general. It's all mentioned in Galaxies, and I took a screenshot that might help with the sourcing. Since I can't link to image hosts, I'll meet you in IRC sometime. :) .

Star Wars The Fateful Clone Wars
That movie, "Star Wars The Fateful Clone Wars" is a real upcoming movie. I should know, because I'm an actor in it. It is Star Wars so thus it is Wookieepdia stuff too. It should be n the news to let people know it is coming out. Happy Anime, --Chatterbox84 21:05, March 15, 2010 (UTC)

Ruusan?
Hello Chack, I'd like to ask, what's the situation with the Battles of Ruusan? I saw that suddenly they've all been reduced by one (after they had been increased by one earlier). What happened? The source we all discussed was reasonable, if confusing and odd. Taral, Dark Lord of the Sith  -Just shy, not antisocial: You can talk to me!- 12:40, March 16, 2010 (UTC)

external link issue
Hi I've been trying to add a Behind the Scenes section for Tan Divo because the website that is used as a reference lists him as an inspector lieutenant but the episode guide on starwars.com has him listed strictly as a lieutenant. He is called inspector during the episode as a general term for detective, regardless of rank, which is where the confusion is. So in trying to write that down, I've gotten these two error messages:

Re:Stealth
Yeah, my local book store doesn't have it at the moment and I still need to update Nala Se. Do you have any suggestions? Because as of now I'm at a loss until either CC gets it, Revanon reads it, or my book store buys it. Thanks for any help on the matter. Darth Trayus ( Trayus Academy ) 01:17, March 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * I have read most of the novel, but no one asked me. :P  JangFett  (Talk) 08:04, March 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh that's great! I'd be open to either, depending on which is easiest for you. And Jang, sorry I had no idea. I just asked two of the people who had edited the book's article quite a bit before Chack approached me.
 * I'd say it's a reasonable assumption. How many Kaminoans with the first name "Nala" can be administrating the Kaliida Shoals MedCenter? Heh, if you don't mind adding the info, I'll look for any reference to the mistake. Thank you again so much. Darth Trayus ( Trayus Academy ) 22:59, March 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks again so much for the info, and I'll check in with him on the timeline. Just out of curiosity, does the book make a mention of it being the first time Se and Tano meet? Because that would certainly clarify the timeline. Darth Trayus ( Trayus Academy ) 23:33, March 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah thank you, that does help as far as placement. I'm still waiting on CC's response, but as soon as I have it I'll add the info. Darth Trayus ( Trayus Academy ) 19:07, March 28, 2010 (UTC)

Query about link
A link like this can't be referenced to in an article, can it? See, I'm working on Koffi Arana's article, and am looking for a better link that states that Gervais Koffi played Arana, since the link on the actor's page is not on the official site anymore.--Jedi Kasra (comlink) 17:08, March 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, well, I did find the actor's official site, and in the "Australia" part of his biography, it states that he worked as an extra in Episode III. Would this be official enough, or should I still keep looking?--Jedi Kasra (comlink) 00:34, March 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, just want to be sure before I nominate him for the FA's. Sorry if this got annoying. Thank you for all your help.--Jedi Kasra (comlink) 04:19, March 22, 2010 (UTC)

Why do you block people?
Why are their rules? Why can't we do what we want and not have to face these petty consequences of blocking. Testguy004 20:42, March 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * To repress the free spirit of humanity. To make our species into a joke because we apes love to control stuff? Testguy004 20:49, March 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Got a better idea? that sounds about right.

Pau'an
Can you add some info to the history section of this article relating to Darth Desolous? The info about him training a Pau'an army should be included there, not just in the Pau'ans in the galaxy section. --Eyrezer 02:34, March 28, 2010 (UTC)

Stealth
Hey, Chack. I saw your message in IRC, and I was unable to respond, because I was away. To answer your question, after reading Stealth, it seems that the novel takes place sometime after Jedi Crash and Defenders of Peace (season one episodes). Brain Invaders is after the Second Battle of Geonosis. If anything, I'd say, no, Brain Invaders takes place after the novel.  JangFett  (Talk) 02:52, March 28, 2010 (UTC)

Opinion on a page
Hey, thanks for the advice on the external link error the problem is ok now. Could you please look at the Coruscant Security Force page? I got disgusted with the lack of details and the formatting and a bunch of other stuff so I've been working on it for a while. I'd like to nominate it as either a Good or Featured article. Can you look at it and tell me what you think of it and which designation I should nominate it for that it would have the best chance? Thanks. Coruscantfan 01:11, March 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok, I did some research and added sourcing. Except for some odd reason I can not get the references I made for Senate Murders to merge no matter what I do so I've left them as two seperate references. Maybe someone else will have luck. Does the article need anything else?
 * I sourced the info box. Anything else?
 * Did your suggestions and reviewed the linking.Coruscantfan 17:54, April 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well I added the units, ranks, vehicles, and members sections in the same way that articles such as the Jedi Order, New Jedi Order, GAR or other organizations have a precedent for listing such information. Really my idea for putting that information in the format that it is, is because that information, specifically the ranks, vehicles and members sections, are not listed in any central area for easy access. You have to do a lot of hunting to find it which is why I even started working on this article. The members section will also be hard to incorporate because a lot of them have only one or two sentence articles with little information. Adding those into the pharagraphs would disrupt the flow of the paragraphs and make them somewhat hard to read/understand. The point was really to provide a central list of that information for those who want to know more to have an easy way to access the links. With that in mind, would you still go with incorporating it into the main article? It may be unneeded but in my mind its not hurting the article either...?? Coruscantfan 21:26, April 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * In trying to source the following:

Though the Coruscant Underworld was still rampant with crime and other effects of the Yuuzhan Vong War as late as 40 ABY, the Galactic Alliance held off on doing much in favor of assisting galactic reconstruction. By the time the Fel Empire took control of Coruscant in 130 ABY after the Sith-Imperial War, the CSF had finally managed to bring security to the Underlevels after many millennia of lawlessness and instability.

I can't find a specific source. It seems to have been stated in one of the early Legacy comics and the info appears on both the Coruscant and Coruscant underworld pages with the adition the effects from Vong-forming were cleaned up as well, again, no specific source. Do know an editor on Wookiepedia that is an expert on the Legacy comics who would know where specifically this info came from?
 * Ok, I changed those sections like you suggested. I did leave the known member as a list though I added some words because I saw that other FAed organization articles have a section of known members or notable member as seperate and in a similar list. Any news on the sources from Legacy? Thanks for your help.Coruscantfan 21:57, May 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Don't worry, I completely understand, the end of the school year is always busy. ;-) Do what you can.Coruscantfan 21:32, May 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * I posted a new thread on the Knowledge Bank so we'll see. If no one can find a source for it I'll remove it and remove it from the Coruscant and Coruscant underworld articles as well. I'll also look through the history and see if I can find the user who posted it. Long shot, but can't hurt try. besides that little section, do think the article is ready to be nominated? I keep forgeting to sign!!Coruscantfan 18:59, May 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * I checked the logs. From what I can tell the info was orginially added by an unknown user to the Coruscant underworld and then a year later to the Coruscant page, again unkown user. So maybe someone from the Knowledge Bank as an idea. Thanks for your help.Coruscantfan 19:29, May 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok well it would seem that no one knows where the info is from so I'll remove it. If someone comes along on Knowledge Bank with the source, I'll gladly put it back. So should I go ahead and nominate it for FA?Coruscantfan 19:14, May 5, 2010 (UTC)

wookprojchar
Hey Chack,

I'm interested in joining WookieeProject The New Essential Guide to Characters. I took on 3PO and R2 as individual projects of my own a couple months ago, and have recently been making minor improvements to other major character articles as well. I figure it makes more sense if I do it within the project's scope. Mind if I join the team? Menkooroo 10:28, March 30, 2010 (UTC)

Skirmish vs Mission to Felucia
I'm not sure who else discussed this with you on IRC, so I'll start with you. If you let me know who else had issue with the name, I'll also talk to them. I just wanted to explain why I don't think Mission to Felucia is accurate for the article. The "mission to Felucia" was to check on the status of the Felucia Medical Center. Once they saw the station was destroyed and got shot down by Vulture droids, the mission was over. The article is about the skirmish between the Hondo Ohnaka's gang and the Jedi/Bounty Hunters/Nicillin farmers. The Jedi stumbled into the skirmish, but it really was not in any stretch of the imagination part of their "mission." I'd like Skirmish on Felucia to be deleted so that Mission to Felucia can be re-redirected to that namespace. Thanks. -  JMAS  Jolly Trooper.png Hey, it's me! 19:30, March 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, I talked it over with CC and he supports the move. So if you wouldn't mind. Could you delete Skirmish on Felucia and move Mission to Felucia to it with that special "two-for-one" action you admins can do? :) Thanks -  JMAS  Jolly Trooper.png Hey, it's me! 01:39, April 1, 2010 (UTC)

Gepta
First off, great job. The article is very well-written, and I only found two grammatical errors, both in the P&T section. I only have one objection: you mention that he fed people to his pets in the second paragraph of the P&T section, but then you mention the same thing again in the paragraph about his fascination with the electromagnetic torpedo. Grand Moff Tranner (Comlink) 15:45, April 18, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Fact File
Bah, sorry I completely forgot about this. It's a brief mention in a section just about some of the personnel assigned to Endor, mentioning how the commanders assigned to duties on Endor were drawn from the most seasoned Imperial troops:
 * "Colonel Dyer's aide, Lieutenant Grond (a Corellian and former swoop racer in his youth), was charged with organizing the scout patrols."

Linking to disambigs
I'm curious where the "link to colors" thing comes from, because as far as I've known, we've never linked to disambigs where we can help it. - Lord Hydronium 05:59, April 19, 2010 (UTC)

Quick Question
Hey, Chack. I noticed the edit you made to the Mandalorian Civil War article, changing the Dialogue template to the regular Quote one with the breaks. So I was wondering, do we not like the Dialogue template anymore or something? It's not a problem, I'm just trying to stay on top of everything.--Bella&#39;Mia 12:33, May 1, 2010 (UTC)

Ruusan Battles
Hey Chack,

What did we end up deciding about the Ruusan battles? I was under the impression that we had agreed upon eight, but I can't seem to find the/an article for the Eighth Battle of Ruusan. Please advise, thanks. —Tommy 9281 17:51, May 5, 2010 (UTC)
