Reference formatting
Hi, I have noticed that you have been adding periods at the end of reference contents lately, but haven't seen that being done before. Is there some rule/grammar guide or something why this should/can be done? (: –Tm_T (Talk) 09:53, June 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi Tm_T. There are very few rules relating to sourcing here, and no particular style guide has been chosen. Therefore, it is generally left to the discretion of the primary author of the article. I, like some of the other members of the WookieeProject: Aliens, tend toward more comprehensive referencing; for instance, including page numbers where practicable. As my own attitude has evolved, I have tended toward using "p. 26." or "pp. 26–28." to indicate page numbers, and as I update/copy-edit old articles that I have written, I have tried to implement this consistently. I hope that answers your question. --Eyrezer 11:36, June 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Actually I didn't mean page numbers, but all periods at the end of references, like in this edit in general. This is the new thing for me. (: –Tm_T (Talk) 19:48, June 8, 2011 (UTC)

Tunroth
Whoops... I hope you don't mind the update I gave Tunroth. I saw it come up on the FA re-feature nom page, and I assumed it had been nominated by someone who was no longer active. At any rate, feel free to dive back in and change anything back that you don't like! ~ Savage   22:56, June 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * No problem. The update is much appreciated. --Eyrezer 04:18, June 19, 2011 (UTC)

Tangrene (species)
Please note that your GAN has an unanswered objection from June 3. If you could answer to that, the nomination would be ready for archiving. Cheers. 1358 (Talk)  13:53, June 15, 2011 (UTC)

Re: CWA
Hey Eyrezer. The info in question on Ermi comes from the in-game "Shop," where players can buy outfits using credits earned through mini-games. The only new info would be from the description for the actual Ermi Jedi outfit set, which you can find here through CWA's Gear list page&mdash;you don't need an account to view it. Go to "Outfits," then to "Jedi Gear," and click on "Ancient Ermi Jedi." Clicking on any of the magnifying glass icons will give you the same description for the set. Just a note: you can format the referencing for the article like this:  Hope that helps, and let me know if you have any questions.  CC7567  (talk) 23:42, June 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * Perfect! --Eyrezer 11:57, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

Moogan
Hey Eyrezer. We were thinking your assistance could be useful on the Moogan GAN page as it seems there is a hangup with the "..in the galaxy" section. Appreciate any help. --  Riffsyphon  1024 07:41, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

Sources question
Hello there, I have a question about sources in articles. If something like the New Essential Chronology and original EC includes the same information, do I need to list both or does one take precedence over the other? Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 16:24, June 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi there. Both shouold get listed in the article. --Eyrezer 08:07, July 1, 2011 (UTC)

Re:Cold War map
Hey Eyrezer, I did some checking around and really wasn't able to come up with much. None of the markers on that map have been explicitly identified thus far, although I would argue that it stands to reason that the two Republic worlds close to one another in the Core are Coruscant and Alderaan. But, barring any official word, I compared them to to this image, showing the Seswenna sector, this image, showing the Tingel Arm, and this image, showing the Bothan sector. Those files seem pretty inconsistent with galaxy maps from The Essential Atlas which leads me to think that the orientation is skewed, but if you can glean anything from them, it may help. I'm not very familiar with the location or surroundings of that Atravis sector, so I'm having a bit of a hard time. However, if I come across any TOR information mentioning the sector or any of its planets or systems, I'll be sure to let you know. Darth Trayus ( Trayus Academy ) 20:13, July 2, 2011 (UTC)

WP:AS on the NewsNet
Hey Eyre; I'm planning to write a little spotlight on WP:AS for the NewsNet as the first in a series of articles profiling the various WookieeProjects. As part of the article, I'd be grateful if you would consent to answer a few questions regarding your work on the project? I'm asking SavageBob as well since you two are the primary active contributors. Thanks in advance, Cavalier One ( Squadron channel ) 12:59, July 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * I would love to help. --Eyrezer 02:21, July 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * Excellent. I'll shoot the questions over to you in the next day or two. - Cavalier One FarStar Logo.jpg( Squadron channel ) 09:01, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Morseerian Santa Claus
Hey, Eyr, hope your summer (winter?) is going well! I checked File:IndependenceSantaClaus.png for Morseerians, and I can't spot them. Were you thinking maybe that the two guys with big, green heads at the top part of the image were Morseerians? They only have two arms apiece, so we can dismiss them if that's the case. ~ Savage   13:24, July 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi Bob. I thought I'd put on that appearance, but it appears I did not. I really only meant the individual at the back on the right. Given the color and shape of the head and the white uniform, which matches that seen on a number of other Morseerians, my  immediate thought on seeing it was Morseerian. I think at least quaifies it for a mention in the BTS, as given the tiny size of the individual concerned, I think it is reasonable that the graphic artists in X-wing intended it to be a Morseerian, and the second set of limbs may just be hidden behind the top set. Similar to the indivudal mentioned from Star Wars 7: New Planets, New Perils, the lack of two extra arms should not exclude it from a mention. What do you think? --Eyrezer 06:12, August 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I've been reading the Marvel Star Wars Omnibi from DHC, and I noticed when I got to that issue that the guy only has two arms. I think I might demote them both to "Pos" only, and remove the in-universe mention of the Marvel guy. But, you're right, they probably both deserve mention in the BTS. I'll add it to my to-do list. ~ Savage BOB sig.png 14:18, August 6, 2011 (UTC)

Palpatine's Return
Thanks for the poke. I actually had no idea that that objection existed. Weirdly enough, I'm currently reading through Crimson Empire for the first time. I've given some more context on the battle and tried to keep it chronological, ie, establishing what Jax is doing there before beginning to talk about what Wedge does when he arrives. I'm not sure if that's what you were looking for; if anything else is needed, let me know. Menkooroo 15:11, August 5, 2011 (UTC)

Status thing
Hey Eyrezer, I just noticed you maintain a "Topic Status" page. Might I suggest adding a Cathar box as well. Five Cathars are FAs: Crado, Ferroh, Myhr Rho, Rasi Tuum, and Sylvar. Also one Cathar is a GA: Zho Rasi Tuum. I hope that qualifies for the status page. Thanks and cya. Kilson ( Let's have a chat ) 11:52, August 14, 2011 (UTC)

I don't, unfortunately; I just glanced through it really quickly at a bookstore without buying it. However, I think has access to it; you might be able to ask him for the info.  CC7567  (talk) 19:17, August 20, 2011 (UTC)

Ho'Dins in the Star Wars Adventures books
Hey, Eyre. There are actually potentially two Ho'Din gardeners in the Star Wars Adventures books, since one is unnamed. The second one could be Oo Wyn, since the chapters in which he appears are told from Sebulba's POV, and Sebulba doesn't know any of the gardeners' names. But it's unclear. I've also included what generic info the books have about the Ho'Din as a species, since I figure you'll maybe want to FA the species at some point. I've gone with chapters in the case of the novel (since it has chapters) and page numbers in the case of the game book (which has no chapters); let me know if you'd prefer page numbers all around. ~ Savage  01:54, September 8, 2011 (UTC)

Oo Wyn
After breaking a bunch of Ghostling children out of Gardulla the Hutt's custody in her palace on Tatooine, Anakin, Kitster, Dorn (a Bothan), and Pala (a Twi'lek) were trying to get them out of the palace. The palace had been notified to their presence, though, so it was impossible and they would have to come back. On Kitster's suggestion, they released them into the unfinished pleasure garden, which was tended by Ho'Din gardeners. Kitster figured the Ho'Din would help them hide until Anakin and co. could come back to smuggle them out. (The Ghostling Children, Chapter 13)

Pala too was eventually smuggled into the pleasure garden, because her role in the rescue was found out and she had to avoid a bounty on her head. (Capture Arawynne, chapter 1)

As the children waited for rescue, the garden was stocked with dangerous creatures like Deneba bushes, swamp slugs, cucul, syren plants, urchins. (Capture Arawynne, chapter 1)

The pleasure garden was also stocked with Wistie slaves, who were supposed illuminate night-time parties there. (CA 1)

Pleasure garden was huge and had many zones: swamp, waterfall, small lake, forest. (CA 1)

Oo Wen was a gardener who was a slave to Gardulla and worked in the pleasure garden (CA 1)

He was tall (CA 1)

He was peaceful. (CA 1)

He helped the fugitive children by signaling them when it was safe to cross through open areas of the pleasure garden. (CA 1)

He was, like his species, a nature lover and peaceful. He had decided to do anything to help the children in the garden. (CA 1)

Unnamed Ho'Din gardener (possibly Oo Wyn)
When Anakin and co. finally mounted a rescue, Sebulba and his team followed them to try to capture the escaped slaves and their would-be emancipators. He came across a Ho'Din gardener during this time. [The book does not name the Ho'Din. It may be Oo Wen, or it may be one of the other Ho'Din gardeners.] This Ho'Din had green skin and violet head scales. Sebulba found him in the midst of planting gourds in a little grove. Sebulba ordered the Ho'Din to show him where the kids were hiding, and at the threat of violence to the plants (not to himself), the Ho'Din went with the Dug. (CA 11)

The Ho'Din gardener led Sebulba to the front door of the garden and said he had seen Ghostlings there. Sebulba knew it was a ruse, but at that same moment, he heard from Djas Puhr over Sebulba's comlink let him know the kids had escaped in the ventilation system and Sebulba would have to exit the garden to chase them. He thanked the Ho'Din for bringing him to the exit. The Ho"Din tried to attack with his mattock, but Sebulba shot the gardening implement and the Ho'Din escaped into the garden. (CA 13)

The same encounter with the unnamed Ho'Din gardener occurs in the Capture Arawynne Game Book, although the game book allows you to play as Sebulba, Gondry, Khiss, or Djas Puhr. (CAGB p. 3) In the game book version, the player has to roll dice to persuade the gardener to help. In the worst-case scenario, the player has to not only shoot up the garden, but also offer rewards of rare flower seeds. (CAGB 39-40)

From the game book, we learn that the Ho'Din used his mattock as a staff when walking. (CAGB 40)

The unnamed Ho'Din is more then three meters tall (CAGB 40)

Generic Ho'Din species info
Ho'Din species are peaceful (TGC 13)

Ho"Din from Moltok (TGC 13)

Name "Ho'Din" means "walking flower" (TGC 13)

Tall and lean as a species (TGC 13)

They had "gorgeous red and violet scales that hung from their heads like hair." (TGC 13)

Ho'Din "loved nature" (TGC 13)

long, suction-cup fingers (CA 11)

"The Ho'Din's eyes widened in fear." (CA 13)

Possible quotes
"Welcome to Gardulla's pleasure garden." "But didn't you say that there are animal sin here that eat people&hellip; or Ghostlings." "Not yet. Not for months. Gardulla's foresters aren't done. They've been working all season, planting trees and flowers, and now they're almost done. They're Ho'Din." (Kitster and Pala, TGC ch. 13)

"Just tell me what I want to know, or I'll blast you so full of holes, you'll only be good for compost." "I can think of no greater honor than to feed my body to the soil when I no longer need it." (Sebulba and a Ho'Din gardener, CA 11)

"Do you know how far through the stars that little one has come?" (a Ho'Din gardener, aghast at Sebulba's wanton shooting o a gourd, CA 11)

TK-104
Hello Eyrezer check out my edit that I made to TK-104, and tell me if I need to change it in any way to keep it adhering to CA standards. Thanks. Hanzo Hasashi 14:53, September 9, 2011 (UTC)

Platt's Smugglers Zarian
Hello, Eyrezer.

Back in 2007, you edited the article on Zarian and added Platt's Smugglers Guide (Image only) to the source list. I'm reviewing the book back and forth, but I can't find any picture looking like a Zarian&mdash;or even a Chubbit or something similar. Can you pinpoint the image you were talking about back then? Dankko Verrimuch in advance, Skippy Farlstendoiro 17:34, October 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * I believe I was referring to this image. And welcome back, at least momentarily :) --Eyrezer 19:40, October 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * That's an interesting approach because your assumed Zarian guy is more upright than I am. In March 2009, JustinGann added Arvee from Shifting Gears to the list of Zarians&mdash;and he indeed looks like one. Now, in his only appearance, Arvee is not identified as a Zarian, but he is repeatedly described as a quadruped &mdash;one who can use his forelegs to manipulate a rifle, but one who moves on fours so much that probably couldn't be as erect as your guy. I am reluctant to believe that Arvee and your guy share limb structure. The only confirmed Zarian is Woetar and, considering The Politics of Contraband, he could be a quadruped like Arvee or a biped like your guy. Here I am, trying to discover whether Zarians are quadrupeds or bipeds. Hm&hellip; By the way, the 2008 Encyclopedia does not include either Arvee or Zarian, but the Essential Atlas mentions them, not solving this problem.
 * On my future participation on the Wookieepedia&hellip; I cannot be sure about it, but there were a few tasks that I had started and left unfinished, like Atlatl, and I didn't want to leave like that. However, at least as of now, nominating any article or even objecting a nomination is completely out of question. This does not mean that I cannot improve the 'pedia as far as I can. Of course, it's always a pleasure talking with you. --Skippy Farlstendoiro 18:25, October 7, 2011 (UTC)

Coordinate Challenge map
Hey, Eyr, does Forum:Coordinate Challenge look messed up to you? The map has suddenly gotten huge, so our X's and circles don't align properly. ~ Savage  02:49, October 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, boy! Yes, it did It looks like a new version of the map was uploaded earlier this month, which was larger. As we had not specified an image width, the background changed. I have re-uploaded the previous image at a different location, which has fixed the problem, fortunately. I will add a note to the image so that it is not accidentally deleted or changed again. --Eyrezer

Inqmoot 46
Hey. Just to let you know, Inq Meeting 46 has been scheduled for midnight UTC on 27 November. Green Tentacle (Talk) 16:10, October 30, 2011 (UTC)

Iunist
Hi, Eye. I just archived Iunist's successful CAN, but afterwards I noticed something. If you don't mind, I'll just leave a note here rather than reopening the nomination. Why do you list the price of the hand on Iunist's article? That doesn't seem very relevant to him. Really, everything after "glass dome" could be excised without compromising any information on the article's subject. NaruHina Talk  16:23, November 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree to a certain extent. I was about to protest to a request for more context on Mumm for the same reasons. However, it is my view that on CAs, context can be stretched a little further than on GAs for FAs, because there is so little material to work with in the first instance. --Eyrezer 19:39, November 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * Alright. NaruHina  Talk Anakinsolo.png 23:36, November 2, 2011 (UTC)

Limbala sector: archived with your unstruck objection
Sorry to bother you, but my CAN for the Limbala sector was archived with your objection unstruck. I was hoping to resolve that objection here without going through the CA review page. Your objection and my reply were as follows below: Is my reply adequate, or do you think that I still need to add information on his assassination? Again, I am sorry about the confusion here.-- Exiled Jedi   (Greetings)  22:49, November 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * Luralon Odaay was apparently assassinated in Love is a Warm Blaster. That is significant enough to be mentioned in this article, given Senators generally represent sectors. Is there anything else that can be gleaned for this article? --Eyrezer 07:20, November 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well I really don't think that the story says that he represented the sector. All it said was that he was from the sector, which could mean that he was merely born there and then became the senator of another. The sector was mentioned in just one spot, so you can't really say anything more about it, since it isn't clear if the sector was the location of his place of birth or if it was the region he represented. What do you think?--Exiled Jedi (Greetings) 16:14, November 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * Darnit, sorry. I didn't see the objection. XP NaruHina  Talk Anakinsolo.png 23:37, November 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * No, I still think that information should be added. --Eyrezer 05:26, November 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * All right, what do you think of it now?-- Exiled Jedi  Oldrepublic crest.svg (Greetings)  22:08, November 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * Just a reminder that my reply has been sitting here for about a week. Thank you for your time.-- Exiled Jedi  Oldrepublic crest.svg (Greetings)  17:09, November 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * Cool. It will suffice. --Eyrezer 10:31, November 13, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you.-- Exiled Jedi  Oldrepublic crest.svg (Greetings)  13:14, November 13, 2011 (UTC)

Darths Ruyn and Talon
Hey Eyre, I reverted your changes to Darth Ruyn and Talon with an explanatory edit summary, but since you reverted back thought I'd leave you a message. Given that all One Sith had red skin due to Sith tattoos, I'd rather not assume he is Lethan based on skin color as it is more likely they are tattoos. If you have a source that actually says Lethan, please source it in the article. Cheers, grunny &#64; wookieepedia :&#126;$ 08:36, November 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry, didn't mean to revert. I initally started with links on the page and now working through the category, so must have accidentally doubled up. Happy for you to revert again. --Eyrezer 08:39, November 21, 2011 (UTC)

Portfolio
Hey Eyrezer. Just wanted to note I like the new format of your Portfolio page, which really demonstrates the immense amount of work that you have put into Wookieepedia. I continue to thank you for your time and assistance here. :) --  Riffsyphon  1024 08:57, November 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks Riff. I appreciate that a lot! --Eyrezer 09:09, November 28, 2011 (UTC)

Ancient business from 2006
I've got quote-sourcing problems dating back to late 2006. Maybe you can help. The source quote for the Barabel article appears to be wrong. Enochf 04:30, January 2, 2012 (UTC)

Barabel quote
Hi, Eyrezer. A few days age I nominated the following quote from the Barabel article (What are invaders called on Barab I? Prey!) for QOTD. However, one issue keeps it from passing. Enochf and Culator did a text search for the quote in Star by Star but found nothing. After some revision history checking, I found out that you added the quote years ago and later sourced it to Star by Star. Are you sure that the source is correct? If it is so, could you please give us the e.g. the page number where you found the quote? Thanks for your time.  Clone Commander Lee  Talk 11:57, January 4, 2012 (UTC)

Inqmoot
Hey, Eyrezer. Just reminding you that you're up for Inqmoot scheduling duties this time around. It's been almost a month and a half since the last meeting, so I'd say it's about time we schedule one again. Thanks. Toprawa and Ralltiir 19:13, January 10, 2012 (UTC)
 * Cheers for the reminder. I'll see what I can whip up. --Eyrezer 19:16, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

Nevoota in TOR
Hey, Eyre, this is the codex text that mentions the Nevoota on this site. I haven't made it here yet, but this info is corroborated by numerous other sites, so seems quite legit. ~ Savage  14:22, January 11, 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks,I have the Codex and will update it soon, now that the Christmas period is over. --Eyrezer 07:12, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
 * Good deal. I have the game and will have to stop playing soon now that the Christmas period is over... ;) ~ Savage BOB sig.png 14:56, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
 * One thing I did wonder is whether there is any context from the game that can be added when describing Codex context. Ie. in XX BBY, a group of spacers learned about the Nevoota conflict from a Republic guard, etc. Is there? --Eyrezer 21:24, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
 * That's a good question. I'm not sure the Codex is supposed to be an in-universe document or simply something for the player to access. I don't think it's an in-universe document, since new entries automatically appear in it when you reach certain areas or do certain quests. I'd just mention that you get the entry when you get a datacron (a thing that boosts a character attribute) on Tatooine, and keep that description in BTS. ~ Savage BOB sig.png 22:39, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Do you know where the entry for the Porporite is found? --Eyrezer 22:42, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
 * Looks like here and here, the datacrons on Nar Shadaaa. But I haven't gotten these in my own play-through yet. ~ Savage BOB sig.png 07:46, January 14, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, no problem. I can definitely do it in the next few days. I just want to review Troig first, which I've been meaning to do for about a month. A nice species double bill! Menkooroo 05:24, January 16, 2012 (UTC)
