Hey, I honestly don't think the bold type in the bio is a big deal, but if you really feel it necessary that it should be in the introduction, I don't mind making the change. Toprawa and Ralltiir 23:19, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't say it's a big deal, but just for consistency's sake, I think it'd be better. Usually, in that case, we'd put a callsign in quotation marks, IIRC. Thefourdotelipsis 23:22, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
 * All right, done and done. Toprawa and Ralltiir 23:29, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Cool, I'll get around to reading it in full a bit later. Thefourdotelipsis 23:30, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

Hey Fourdot. I just wanted to let you know that Yeb Yeb Adem'thorn has been archived. Cylka  -talk- 04:42, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Ah. Thanks for the notice. :) Thefourdotelipsis 00:28, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

Battle droids
Instead of cluttering up your talk page with too many of these notices in a row, I wanted to let you know that 1138 (Trade Federation) and 3B3-21 were archived as well. Cylka  -talk- 21:50, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

ROFL
Hey, this has nothing to do with anything, but I was viewing your caption page and found it hilarious. If you're wondering why I was looking at it, well, it...showed up on recent changes. Yeah (actually, there was a link to it on another page). :P  Chack Jadson  (Talk) 23:15, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Lobar Aybock
Hey, I see that you were the main one working that got Lobar Aybock up to FA status. I just wanted to bring your attention to an addition of a new infobox image showing him unmasked. I then moved the current infobox image down into the article. Take a look to see if you approve. You can revert it if you don't. -  JMAS  Hey, it's me! 18:49, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

The new Triage system
After the Inquisitorius' most recent meeting, it was decided to enact a triage system for dealing with the large number of nominations on the FAN page. The Triage page has been set up in the Inquisitorius forum to make it easier for Inqs to see what nominations are best focused on for clearing out the nomination page. This is a tool for helping Inqs combine their efforts on articles, and shouldn't be taken as mandatory; as usual, any Inq is free to review any article they want. - Lord Hydronium 03:21, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

Battle of Ryloth
Hi, Four Dot. First of all, thanks for the review of the Battle of Ryloth article; it's nice to have an Inq take a look at it. Please excuse me if you prefer not to have FAN messages on your talk page, but I wasn't sure where else to directly ask you this. I was wondering, for the image of the three Venator-class cruisers getting damaged over Ryloth, how would you recommend placing it? I know that you reverted my modification of that when it was placed directly next to the infobox, but right now, it's extremely close to the next image. Would you recommend keeping it that way? Thanks.  CC7567  (talk) 05:24, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see. No problem, thanks for clarifying.  CC7567  (talk) 15:36, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

RE: Sedriss
But of course, that's no problem. I have now translated the first two pages of Sedriss' entry. I'll try to do the rest later this evening. (Update: I had some spare time and added the rest. I hope there was nothing lost in translation, let me know if something's not entirely clear.)

Thune
Here's the profile shot of Thune. There are a couple of pics in the story, but both are spine-huggers—one I could probably get, but the other is doubtful. And she's a main character in the story, so you're probably gonna need the whole thing—which I can do, so just let me know. -- Ozzel 03:22, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Darth Bandon FAN
Hey, FourDot. I believe I've taken care of your objections to the article.--Jedi Kasra (talk) 14:10, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
 * OK, in the intro, how would you take care of this? He killed the Republic ensign, Trask Ulgo, who sacrificed himself to save Revan—who had been rescued by Shan after Malak's betrayal, and reprogrammed to be loyal to the Republic by the Jedi Council. Because we can't not mention the fact that Revan was alive and reprogrammed.--Jedi Kasra (talk) 14:54, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Also, if Calo Nord hadn't been hired, and ultimately killed by Revan, Malak wouldn;t have sent him after Shan, so I feel it's important in the intro.--Jedi Kasra (talk) 15:02, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Fair enough, I left some questions for you in the "Comments" section of the nomination.--Jedi Kasra (talk) 15:27, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Have you read my comments on the objections yet?--Jedi Kasra (talk) 14:58, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I'll take care of your objections Monday.--Jedi Kasra (talk) 16:29, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Hey, Fourdot, I'm going to be at driving school for the next couple weeks, so I might not contribute as much, but I intend to take care of those objections. I think I took care of one of them, please chack it out.--Jedi Kasra (talk) 16:09, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Kallidahin quotes
The quotes will eventually go but, as you know, there's a current CT thread that uses the current "quote-state" of the article to exemplify the point of the discussion. Although the thread deals with the main quote, the other quotes illustrate "available quotes for the article." I wouldn't like to remove them as it could affect the CT should new voters go there; neither I want to replace the link to Kallidahin with a point in the past, because that could influence new voters going there ("See, even the author changed it"). I'll delete the offending quotes when the vote is over. Thank you for your review. --Skippy Farlstendoiro 06:29, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

Reff'ing Kallidahin
To avoid congestion in the FAN page, I've answered Eyrezer in his own talk page, simply because he was the original objector. I respectfully request you to visit Eyrezer's talk page for the new details; I hope we can settle the situation asap, and that was the reason of the post. --Skippy Farlstendoiro 12:18, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

INQCON
Yes sir. I've already begun to explore and familiarize myself with the intricacies of the new system. I'll get to making the changes that apply to me asap, as long as my REC allows me to. And thanks for the condolences, they are much appreciated. —Tommy9281  ( No quarter given, all exits sealed ) 01:04, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

Attichitcuk
Hey there, 4Dot. Sorry to disturb you on your hiatus and whatnot, (and I hope life's treating you well and all) but I seem to remember that you'd seen the Star Wars Holiday Special, which is how you got the sources for the late Ms. Arthur's article. Does it source Attichitcuk as the Wookiee Chieftain, please? Cheers, mate. -- Darth tom  (Imperial Intelligence)  20:06, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I thought I'd replied to this. In any case, thanks all the same, 4Dot. It's been sourced and passed. Cheers. :) -- Darth tom Imperial Emblem.svg (Imperial Intelligence)  06:44, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Hello. An Inq meeting is scheduled for Saturday, June 20, at 2300 UTC. Please try to attend, because we will be talking about the current state of the FAN page, what with all the summer noms. Apologies for the late notice.  Chack Jadson  (Talk) 00:59, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Power of the Force toy line
Considering you worked on Continuity section of several toy line articles, including the one from 1995-1998, I have a question regarding a series of toys with canonical information on them, though its been difficult to use it as a source on Wookiee for some reason. They are planet spheres of Tatooine, Endor, and the Death Star, with locations noted on their surfaces. Inside each sphere is a figure and a scene from one of the films. I believe I've already had an article or several deleted because the source was not a book or other form of media. Tractor Beam 52-N1 comes to mind. Would you happen to know what I speak of? --  Riffsyphon  1024 19:55, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

Tydirium
Hey FourDot. I've got one outstanding objection to Tydirium that should be reasonably straightforward to address. --Eyrezer 04:57, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

Frog-Dogs
Hey, Fourdot. I know you're not all that active these days, but do you happen to remember where Frog-Dogs appear in Star Wars: The Action Figure Archive? I'm thinking about expanding their article, so I hoped you'd be able to point me in the right direction. Thanks! ~ SavageBob 05:43, January 5, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Janu Godalhi
Hey Fourdot. I apologize, but unfortunately, that's one of the few TCW books that I don't have access to right now. I'm planning on getting it soon, but I'm not sure how soon that "soon" will be. Also, I'm not even sure if anyone on the site has it&mdash;the only direction I can point you in is that you might be able to contact someone through TheForce.net for the info, as that's where Mauser got it. Hope that at least helps.  CC7567  (talk) 19:05, April 10, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Lemelisk
I added the missing-info tag in my process of GAing Hefi, when I discovered that the SWE Hefi entry discusses Lemelisk's Hefi retreat in different terms than any other source. That entry seems to suggest that Lemelisk hiding on Hefi was "apocryphal," as the source describes it, and might not have happened at all. I devoted an "Inconsistencies" BTS subsection to the seeming contradiction in the Hefi article, which, if you take a look, explains how I basically treated the discrepancy as competing reports. I figure the Lemelisk article deserves some kind of mention along those lines. It's interesting how SWE decided to insert these little scraps of new info that have never popped up anywhere else, i.e. the death of Pello Scrambas. Toprawa and Ralltiir 04:31, April 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * That was also my guess, that he tried to rectify the Darksaber inconsistency. If the change works for you, go for it. Feel free to remove the update tag. Toprawa and Ralltiir 04:58, April 14, 2010 (UTC)

Executor Scoundrel's Luck canon path
Ok, I'll try to explain all of this. The Executor Scoundrel's Luck-CSWE information begins on pg. 65. I have included short page summaries to help with navigation, and the non-canon ending(s) for each of these as well (non-canon because they either don't follow or contradict the stated path of events in CSWE). Everything in bold represents the canon path. The canon page sequence is 65-74-78-88. There may or may not be other Piett information within this portion of the story. I can't remember.


 * 65) Falcon emerges from hyperspace at Black Widow Nebula. Executor orders Falcon to stand down for customs inspection. Run or stand by? (91 or 74)
 * 91) Tries to run.
 * 108) Escapes Executor by flying too close to SSD for sensors, weapons to register; Falcon escapes into Nebula. NON-CANON.
 * 91) Tries to run.
 * 114) Locked in Avenger’s tractor beam, Falcon tries to escape hard to port. Falcon is boarded and captured; Solo shot and neutralized. NON-CANON.


 * 74) TIE Fighters and spacetrooper transport from Executor boards Falcon. Piett interrogates Solo. Bribe Piett or report Piett for asking for bribe?
 * 78) Solo tries to bribe Piett. Falcon captured aboard Executor, Solo taken to brig. Solo is taken to speak with Ozzel. Ozzel creates stupid plan to allow Solo to escape.
 * 88) Solo attacks trooper behind him. Ozzel allows Falcon to escape Executor and enter Nebula.


 * 74) TIE Fighters and spacetrooper transport from Executor boards Falcon. Piett interrogates Solo. Bribe Piett or report Piett for asking for bribe?
 * 93) Solo turns Piett in for asking for bribe. Piett allows Falcon to leave. Falcon escapes into Nebula. NON-CANON.

Piett
Think I found most of what you needed. A private message from SWG player ZeridanShear reads:

"Captain Firmus Piett, initially found at the Emperor’s Retreat in the mountains of Naboo, was dispatched to the isolated world of Dathomir in response to the outbreak of a deadly virus. Initial reports from the Research Facility located at the center of the Quarantine Zone give mention of the ‘walking dead. Rumors of survivors and holdouts against these unimaginable creatures reached the ears of Imperial agents. Piett, for the Imperial faction players of Star Wars: Galaxies, requests assistance in retrieving a sample of the virus for further study. Along the way, the rescue of survivors and exploration of the facility is a necessary step in achieving this goal – a note Piett makes mention of before sending the player into the Quarantine Zone. SPOILER STUFF: Once the player returns to Piett upon successful rescue of the scientists in the Research Facility, Lord Vader comms the player and praises him/her for the successful retrieval."

Some more stuff can be found in the thread, but I think the above about covers it. --Imperialles 18:36, April 20, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Rollback
Nominated for rollback rights? Me? Why, of course, just being considered for that would be a honor. But, if you don't mind, could you please delay the process till the middle of May? Its for personal reasons that I'd be happy to share with you then. Skippy Farlstendoiro 08:40, April 22, 2010 (UTC)
