Defending your Freedom

 * Just a heads up, you still have an open objection on this nom on the CA page.  OLIOSTER  (talk) 12:58, March 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * I suppose I wasn't considering that an objection. No matter, done! ~ SavageBob 15:56, March 4, 2011 (UTC)

Defending Your Freedom
Hey, you supported that on the CAN however the objection was not struck. Could you please strike it? Cheers, 1358  (Talk)  13:16, March 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * You know you have missed something when you get duplicate reminders. :P Apologies. 1358  (Talk)  13:23, March 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * See above. :P ~ SavageBob 15:56, March 4, 2011 (UTC)

Palso Thern appearances
Hi SavageBob, is Palso Thern at all visible in the ROTJ photocomic? If you don't know who he is, no worries, there's a photo of him from ROTJ in his article :) Thanks. Hanzo Hasashi 19:18, March 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the late response; I think I missed this message originally! I'm going to say yes, but just barely. There's a picture of the briefing in Home One, and there's a red-suited pilot standing to the upper-left of Threepio who is almost certainly Thern, but his head is cut off by the top of the panel so it's hard to be 100% sure. But based on the image in the Thern article, it must be him. Hope this helps! ~ SavageBob 19:02, March 5, 2011 (UTC)

When you have the time
Hello Bob, I know that you have finals this week, which is the week of my break, so you are probably understandably busy. I am in no hurry, so when you have the time, can you tell me if Vandolay appears in either the ESB PhotoComic or if he's pictured in the Storybook? As always, thanks in advance for the help. Hanzo Hasashi 04:47, March 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sure, I'll take a look. Where exactly would he be? It's hard to tell what scene he's in from the article. ~ SavageBob 06:20, March 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * On the Avenger during its pursuit of the Millennium Falcon in the Anoat System, seen working in the crewpits. Hanzo Hasashi 16:10, March 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hey Bob, have you gotten the time to check those books yet for Vandolay appearances? If you are still busy in real life, don't worry about it and no need to give me the information anytime soon, just hoping you haven't forgotten :) Hanzo Hasashi 23:38, March 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'll see if I can get to it tonight. Got one more paper to turn it, but I'm waiting on my proofreader to get it back to me! :) ~ SavageBob 23:51, March 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Where exactly does he appear? There are two dudes who might be him; one visible during the line, "Bounty hunters. We don't need their scum!" and one during the line "Captain Needa, the ship no longer appears on our scopes." Either of those fit the bill? ~ SavageBob 03:39, March 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * The latter, assuming you're talking about some black uniformed officer. Here's a movie screenshot: http://nl.starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Bestand:Derdram_Vandolay.jpg. Hanzo Hasashi 16:14, March 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hey Bob, I hope this does not come off as rude, but, since this character also appears in the same movie, when you do the Vandolay adaptation checks can you perhaps also look for Hudiss? He was the communications chief aboard the Executor who could be seen at his station during Captain Needa's death and when Vader ordered Piett to detect all flight paths of the Millennium Falcon, Piett gives him the order "alert all commands. Deploy the fleet." Hanzo Hasashi 20:16, March 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * It appears that the back of Vandolay's head appears in the photo-comic. Is Hudiss visible during the line, "Bounty hunters. We don't need that scum"? There's a guy who could be him, sitting in front of a computer screen, with the guy who says that line looking over his shoulder. Sorry, I suck at ID'ing Imperials! ~ SavageBob 20:55, March 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * Many obscure characters from the movies I went on their Yodapedia pages years ago and in many cases saw where they could be found in movies. Here's an image of Hudiss from the film. No he is not in that bounty hunters scene, just at his console when Needa is strangled. He and another technician are near Piett, flanked by one of Piett's captains and also Lieutenant Suba. Hudiss and the other technician pull switches on their consoles when Piett gives the order to deploy Death Squadron's fleet in search of the Millennium Falcon. Hope that helps, I used to suck at this too. :) Hanzo Hasashi 23:26, March 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * In that case, it appears that Vandolay is in the Photocomic, but Hudiss is not! ~ SavageBob 23:33, March 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks, and I have now also put Vandolay up for a GAN! Hanzo Hasashi 23:39, March 21, 2011 (UTC)

Image uploading
I can't upload an image for the page of Steve Gerber, so I hoped that you could do it for me :) This is the link: http://www.swanshadow.com/2008/02/rip-steve-gerber.html Love your userpage. Greets --Station7 16:06, March 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hey, Station7! I found a public domain image of him that I've uploaded: Image:Steve Gerber (cropped).jpg. We prefer public domain or copyleft over fair use images whenever possible, so I hope this one will suffice for your purposes! ~ SavageBob 16:14, March 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you SavageBob. it's alright for me, and the administrators didn't deleted it. I think it's good enough. I really like your userpage. Especially the GA, FA and the CA articles. --Station7 21:22, March 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Glad it works for you! As for the user page, feel free to steal any elements of it you like. :) ~ SavageBob 22:42, March 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but you did missundertsood me :(. Again, I can't upload an image. Can you upload this image from Don Ivan Punchatz. Source is this site: http://fatdesign.org/?p=12. Greets --Station7 22:50, March 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Bob, not to force you, but you could you upload the image from the above message? Greets, your friend ;) --Station7 00:42, March 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hey, sorry; I've been really busy with real life. :( You may want to ask someone else to help you with this one. Sorry! ~ SavageBob 01:51, March 12, 2011 (UTC)

GAN
Hey Bob, just wanted to remind you that you have a few unstricken objections currently remaining on the Bouncer (clone trooper) GAN that the nominator has addressed. If you're satisfied with the changes, we can archive the nomination as successful. Thanks. :) Toprawa and Ralltiir 00:05, March 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * D'oh! Thanks for the reminder. ~ SavageBob 00:09, March 12, 2011 (UTC)

Chronicles
Hey friend,

I have a favor to ask you! I feel a little bad since you've already provided me with info from the Galactic Phrase Book and The Making of ESB, but I'm wondering if you can help me out with Chronicles. I've completed a first draft of Lumpy, and as far as I know, Chronicles is the only source I haven't been able to check. Would you be able to let me know what the book says about our pint-sized friend? If so, thank you so much, and if not, no worries. Cheers! Menkooroo 11:48, March 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * No worries, anytime! Here ya go: "Lumpy was originally slated to be the lead character in Lucas's More American Graffiti. At the time, Ron Howard was asking for more money than Lucasfilm was willing to pay, so George Lucas proposed filming the entire movie with little people in Wookiee suits. The second draft script describes Lumpy as 'A furball with a roaring dragster and a bad attitude." OK, I made that up. The real info is that "We are introduced to [Chewbacca's] wife, Malla, his son, Lumpy, and his father, Itchy." There is an image by Joe Johnston showing the Wookiee characters, which includes the note, "mother & baby Wookiee could be a little plumper." It was drawn on 3-8-79. There's also an image of Chewie with Malla standing behind Itchy, seated in a chair, as Lumpy stands to his side. (all this on p. 124). Then, on p. 125, we get a McQuarrie concept pic of the Wookiee living room with Lumpy seated on the floor looking at a holotable. A still from the special shows the Death Star trooper guy standing next to Malla and Lumpy, with the caption, "At times, Chewbacca's family is under Imperial surveillance, and his home is searched by the authorities." That's it! Get that thing to FAN. ~ SavageBob 03:47, March 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * OK, I have a more important question for you: Why are you so awesome? Seriously, this is really appreciated! Thank you so much. The article isn't quite ready for the FAN page; it's rough and needs a few copy-edits. I'll get right on it. Menkooroo 03:50, March 16, 2011 (UTC)

Species of Endor
Hey Bob. After looking at some of your Endor species GAs in relation to preparing to review the Unidentified six-legged creature GAN, I noticed that you don't include the Species of Endor category in your status articles for Endor species. I was hoping to get your approval to go ahead and add this category to all relevant articles for consistency with all of these Endor species articles. Even if we don't know the species is necessarily indigenous to Endor, I believe the category is broad enough to allow inclusion of any species residing on the moon. Let me know what you think. Thanks. Toprawa and Ralltiir 19:04, March 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hey, Tope. Yeah, as long as the category is being interpreted as meaning "species found on Endor" rather than "species native to Endor," it should be fine. I'd opt for the latter definition myself (since Humans, say, are found on Endor), but as long as we're consistent, I don't have a problem with it per se. ~ SavageBob 19:07, March 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok, if there's no other issue, I'll try to add in the category, or may get a bot to do it, before too long. If you want, and there's enough data to justify doing so, we could probably create a subcategory of that category for actual confirmed indigenous species. Thanks again. Toprawa and Ralltiir 19:16, March 21, 2011 (UTC)

Clantaani
You were doing so well! Before you added the CitG section, it was only around 500 words -- perfectly on target for GA length. :P --Eyrezer 03:21, March 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * D'oh! I'll have to word-count it and see where it is at the moment. :) ~ SavageBob 03:34, March 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * Currently 1,053 words. It could go down more. We'll see... ~ SavageBob 04:13, March 22, 2011 (UTC)

One last smudge
The last thing Toprawa wants added to Obitoki is the page number of his CSWE entry. Could you please throw that into the Source listing and the citation for me? NaruHina Talk  05:33, March 27, 2011 (UTC)

Galaxies
Hi Bob, I was just reading [swg.wikia.com/wiki/Dr._Fool this article] on the SWG Wiki and it seems to suggest that Ebareebaveebeedee was mentioned in Star Wars Galaxies. I'm unsure of the specifics of this, so do you think the Ebaree article needs updating? --Jinzler 07:27, March 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I just realized that you weren't actually the nominator of that article. I had just kind of assumed that you were, because it is Squib-related... --Jinzler 08:05, March 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * Wasn't that an AdmirableAckbar piece? He's not around much anymore, so I am glad you brought this to my attention. :) I'll investigate. ~ SavageBob 14:59, March 30, 2011 (UTC)

Bib Fortuna
Hey man! Sorry about accidentally having a undo war with you there, I threw my language info in there and kept noticing typos and so kept fixing them, I didn't intend to keep undoing it on you. When I was done, though, I looked at the page and saw that all of my sourcing and the section I made was gone... I can't understand why you deleted it as it's reliable information that I, many times have wondered myself. Please enlighten me. --LikeDaniel 04:43, April 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see what you did. Nevermind, man!--LikeDaniel 04:44, April 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * No worries; it is indeed worthwhile information; all I did was Wookieefy it (make it conform to the layout guidelines of the site) and remove the presumed Ryl language, since we don't allow speculation. I hope that makes sense! :) ~ SavageBob 05:00, April 4, 2011 (UTC)

Help Wanted
hi since you are interested in the light side of the force, i would like you to contribute to my wiki, witch focuses on trandoshans, wookies, Republic, and CIS forces during the clone wars. go to mec.wikia.com to find my wikia and post on my talk page here for more info on it Thank You! --Indianasean 05:14, April 4, 2011 (UTC) P.S you can do only republic and wookies if you want.
 * Thanks for the invite, but I have to pass. I'm too busy in real life. Good luck, though! ~ SavageBob 14:57, April 4, 2011 (UTC)

Ree-Yees
Ree-Yees is played by Richard Bonehill / Paul Springer / Mike Quinn

www.imdb.com/character/ch0036747/
 * Hey, thanks for trying to improve the Wook. Unfortunately, IMDB is not considered a reliable source for this kind of trivia. We don't accept as reliable sources that are fan-created, and for this kind of thing, IMDB is. Also, don't forget to sign your comments by typing ~ . Cheers, ~ SavageBob ~ Talk ~ 01:34, April 5, 2011 (UTC)

If IMDB is not reliable source. What is then ? Hard to find more. But here is a try. starwarsinterviews1.blogspot.com/2010/01/richard-bonehill-interview.html --G Madine 02:09, April 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'd argue that, as a fan site, that isn't reliable either. But I'm just one opinion: Why don't you post a Senate Hall thread to get other folks' opinions? They may disagree with me. ~ SavageBob ~ Talk ~ 02:50, April 5, 2011 (UTC)

Nom nom
Hey man. I hate to try to extort votes, but Qid Proko is now up for a GAN. I know you're busy, but you seemed interested in helping when it was a CAN, so hopefully you'd be able to take a look at it now.--Demos Traxen 23:06, April 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * No worries; I didn't realize it was up at GAN. I'll definitely take a look. ~ Savage  B Aliens_Logo.png B ~ 01:04, April 6, 2011 (UTC)

Re: Sigs
Hey Bob. Cool signature. Regarding your first question, I haven't encountered any problem while tweaking your signature in preview mode. All you need to do is format each "B" as B. Regarding your second question,  should prevent line-breaking, but at the expense of creating spaces between the letters in "BOB". So the full code for "BOB" should go like this: B  &amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;  B  &amp;nbsp;~ Hope that helps. QuiGonJinn (Talk) 11:39, April 6, 2011 (UTC)

Rica on the CAN

 * I assume the first objection is yours as well. If it is, can you please strike it so it can be archived. Thanks.  OLIOSTER  (talk) 09:54, April 7, 2011 (UTC)

The Thrawn Trilogy Sourcebook, p. 86
''From the personal journal of Voren Na'al, Director of New Republic Council Research. This is a confidential document, not for public dissemination. Mara Jade is a slim, athletic young woman, possessing the grace of a Galloan Wind Dancer and the fighting prowess of a cornered Tusken Raider. This ferocious young smuggler often radiates sheer bitterness, hatred and loss, marring her beauty.''
 * You will also find it in The Last Command Sourcebook, p.92. --Eyrezer 08:22, April 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * Ah, brilliant! How'd you find that? ~ Savage  BOB sig.png 15:49, April 11, 2011 (UTC)

Knock it off
All right, Bob. Knock off the NPA accusations. Right now. When you can cite specific examples where I have actually personally attacked you per the definition of the policy on this page, then go lodge a formal complaint. But until that actually happens, drop the false accusations of impropriety, which in itself is a violation of this page. I don't care if you disagree with me on a forum page, but you're not going to play the victim card and wave the NPA banner at every turn because you can't take a heated debate. This is me speaking to you as an administrator. Don't take it any further. Toprawa and Ralltiir 01:43, April 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * This is where I feel you crossed the line: "See, that's where the problem arises, Bob. You choose what rules and policies you wish to follow according to your preferences and opinions. You didn't support this specific measure when it passed at the Mofference, and now that it's actually applying to you, you're chafing under it and finding every window of opportunity to not adhere to it." Here, I feel I've been painted unfairly and personally in a manner that brings my character into question. WP:NPA states, "Comment on content, not the contributor," and that's not what has happened in this comment. As for the examples, accusing me of "[choosing] what rules and policies [I] wish to follow" is, it seems to me, the same as "X is a troll" or "Y is a bad editor." I honestly was not trying to make a WP:POINT in any of this mess; I merely wanted to clarify the rules, whatever they may be, regardless of whether I agree or disagree with them. WP:NPA tells us, "Assume good faith, be civil and adhere to good wiki etiquette when stating disagreements to avoid personalizing them and try to minimize unnecessarily antagonistic comments." The comment I quoted above turned the debate personal, attacking me and my character, and that's what I responded to. ~ Savage  BOB sig.png 02:31, April 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * Please note that my last comment on the SH page applies here, too. There's absolutely no reason for any of this&mdash;that is, any kind of personal attack or accusation of personal attacks&mdash;to exist over the topic that was being debated. Let's everybody please drop this now, particularly now that the subject at hand appears to have been resolved. Thank you. Jonjedigrandmaster  ( Talk ) 02:37, April 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * Jugs is correct, this needs to stop, and I recognize my part in perpetuating this. I apologize to you, Bob, if you felt that I attacked your character or insulted you to any extent. Hopefully we can put this behind us and try to hammer out some kind of compromise to this GAN page rule contradiction. Toprawa and Ralltiir 02:40, April 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * No worries; I appreciate the sentiment. If something good comes from this (i.e., a rules clarification), that's all the for the best. ~ Savage  BOB sig.png 02:49, April 12, 2011 (UTC)

EduCorps nomination
Hey Savage, thanks for your review on my Snow monster article. I see you're part of the EduCorps; I recently nominated myself for the EduCorps, but nobody's voted so far, and there's only a week left :X. Do you think you could get the ball rolling by voting either for or against me (preferably for, of course, but it's your vote)? Thanks a lot!&mdash; Axinal  Convocation Chamber 19:49, April 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hmm. I think maybe folks are unprepared to vote for you since it was a self-nom? Perhaps let it expire and wait it out a bit. I'm sure you'll get nominated sooner or later. I realize this probably isn't the response you were hoping to get, but I personally would be more comfortable voting for you on someone else's nomination, if that makes sense. :) ~ Savage  BOB sig.png 19:51, April 12, 2011 (UTC)
