Jorus
No, that is the correct pronunciation. See the intro of Joruus C'baoth --- it's with a soft c sound, not a hard c. It was correct information, not vandalism, and was under a new header to boot. It belongs on the talk page. Menkooroo (talk) 08:26, August 3, 2013 (UTC)

Galactic Empire
Hi, I tried to explain my changes in the 'Talk' section of the Galactic Empire page.

How to change a title?
How do you change a title of a page, because I misspelled it. Thanks. P.S. Congrats on Wookieepedia of the month!! Darth Pickle 2 (talk) 16:48, August 6, 2013 (UTC)

You left me a message saying not to leave 'nonsense'. Was this in response to an edit I made?

YT series
Question, why do you delete the overview of the YT series ships?

(CounterG (talk) 10:49, August 8, 2013 (UTC))

I second that. The overview pages of a series (like *VCX series, *YG series, etc) all contain a list of at least a few notable models. Which makes sense, because while useful, the category system in wiki's isn't exactly user friendly. It's puzzeling to go to an overview page of the most notable series (because it contains the YT-1300, which is the most iconic ship in the star wars universe, if not the most iconic spaceship in science fiction), and not find at least some of the most important models of the series, just like on all other ship-series pages. --83.76.154.44 20:07, September 3, 2013 (UTC)

Redlinks
Well wouldn't it be better to have the articles already created, and then add new info to them? I think it's much easier to do that than to create an article from scratch, at least for most people, especially new users. 10:29, August 10, 2013 (UTC)
 * I never said that I think that articles with redlinks are bad, I just think that adding new info to articles that are already created is much easier than creating them from scratch, adding templates, appearances, categories, etc. The article was indeed made, it just requires expansion which is why I usually add the stub template to them. 78.97.91.207 11:01, August 10, 2013 (UTC)
 * Trip, don't give people warnings for nothing more than creating articles. It's absolutely and objectively NOT something that merits a warning. Filling in redlinks is not spam, regardless of the length of the new article --- turning a redlink into a stub is common practice all over the site. It's done all the time in FAnoms and GAnoms, and otherwise by established users, as well. A stub is better than no article at all. You should only be giving warnings to those who actually need them, and not to people who are actually improving the site. Smarten up. Menkooroo (talk) 14:20, August 10, 2013 (UTC)

Galactic Empire edits.
Hi.

I was wondering what edits are extensive enough to require an inuse tag for the Galactic Empire article? So far, nothing has popped up from your edits, and people are probably ignoring the tags. Weedle McHairybug (talk) 20:13, August 18, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Inuse tags
Fancy thing that. In the end I went through with the edit due to the fact that the tag has been in place for the better part of a month and progress has been sporadic at best with the last change being three days ago. I did not really feel that this would spawn a great deal of issues. While I can fully understand the desire to avoid edit conflicts, the idea of for all intents and purposes locking down a page to all but one editor seems a bit odd, additionally that typo, which had been there for about as long as the WIP template was there was driving me nuts, and I figured it'd be best to get it taken care of. If that's wrong then I'll gladly defer to your judgement, this is not my main wiki so you know better than I. I just figured I'd take the time to explain my reasoning, however random, and all over the place it may have been. Richie9999 (talk) 05:20, August 20, 2013 (UTC)

Bounty hunter reverts
Hey Trip I noticed you've been reverting the edits of an anon on a lot of the bounty hunter pages, after he removed the death info from their infobox. There may be another reason I'm not aware of for your reverts, but in terms of information the anon is actually correct and their edits are ok. For bounties who have higher bounties alive than dead in bounty hunter the Wook assumes that in terms of 100% game completion Jango captured them alive, as to earn the maximum amount of credits. This assumption can be seen in affect on the Clantaani page. I apologise if you were reverting for a different reason but you seem to be reverting valid work as far as I can tell and seem to be upsetting the new user by doing so. Ayrehead02 (talk) 22:37, August 20, 2013 (UTC)
 * Ah my apologises Trip I only saw a small bunch of reverts by you on recent activity and not the larger problem. Hope I didn't offend you or anything and I should of looked further before speaking out of place. Ayrehead02 (talk) 21:39, August 21, 2013 (UTC)

Of edit summaries and all
Hi, wanted to contact you directly about the edit summary I raised in RFU discussion.

I don't find the lack of edit summaries and overagressive minor-marking as your problem (specifically) but something I find troubling in overall (see my taking on that in here and here). What I'm trying to say is you're doing rather good job in Wookieepedia standards, I'm just old cranky fellow who wants to raise the bar a bit. Keep up the good work, I believe you can do much more than I ever could. (: – Tm_T@Wookieepedia:&#126;$ 07:44, September 3, 2013 (UTC)

I don't understand how my edit was nonsense. Why was it removed? --Jibli Kan (talk) 19:04, September 3, 2013 (UTC)

Minor edits
Please mark minor formating edits that do not add or change any information in the articles as such by selecting a "Minor Edit" checkbox next to "Follow this page" checkbox so that they don't clog other users' watchlist. Thank you. LOST-Malachi (talk) 19:26, September 4, 2013 (UTC)

Fanon?
When did I ever add a Fanon to an article? 76.166.130.139 09:55, September 5, 2013 (UTC)

I would like to second that motion, I have not added nor will I add fanon to this wiki. I was correcting that which was wrong. - Hubris 10:46, September 17, 2013 (UTC)

Jess
Hello, it appears that you've left broken references by removing them. Also, as per the sourcing policy it is perfectly fine to source the intro if that info does not appear elsewhere. Thankyou. Bo Shuda (talk) 05:28, September 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * My apologies, I did not mean to undo everything that you had corrected in the article. Bo Shuda (talk) 05:43, September 7, 2013 (UTC)

Species cultures
Hey, Trip. I can't say I agree with your decision to recategorize various categories for individuals under their respective species' cultures. For example, you've made Category:Squibs a subcategory of Category:Squib culture, rather than the other way around. We've been doing things opposite of this for quite some time, and the old way seems more logical. What's your thinking on this? Was there some SH or CT thread I missed? ~ Savage  13:15, September 13, 2013 (UTC)
 * Hey, thanks for the reply. I disagree that it's more logical for the species to be categorized under the culture; the culture wouldn't exist if it weren't for the individual members of the species who create it through their sociality. The headings of those various categories, such as Category:Squibs, do say "This is for Squib individuals," but we can easily change that to say, "This category is for Squibs and their society" or some such. Maybe a CT is in order to canvas wider site opinion and decide on what practice or the other, just to get some sort of policy in place? ~ Savage BOB sig.png 20:28, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

Reverting edits without an explanation
Hi Trip. You recently reverted edits from the Zabrak article without providing any explanation, resulting in a removal of good information. When reverting, please explain your reverts so that others can know what you think is the problem with the information. Thanks-- Richterbelmont10  ( come in R2! ) 16:09, September 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * I second that thought. As a new member, I was most discouraged as to the amount of prodding it took to get an explanation.  --LostCampbell (talk) 19:15, October 25, 2013 (UTC)

Tal'dira
Hi Trip, I like to ask you a question. It's about the Tal'dira page. Why was it reverted? I hardly done anything wrong. But I realized that the Category:New Republic Starfighter Corps personnel was removed. I know he was part of Rogue Squadron, in which I saw. He was pilot in the New Republic. I re-editted the page. But, please don't revert what I did.--99.56.52.29 20:26, September 19, 2013 (UTC)

Also, try to give me an explanation. Thank you and happy editing--99.56.52.29 20:28, September 19, 2013 (UTC)

The Human vs Not debate
Well Trip, I think it's safe to say that those "obvious" Humans are indeed Human due to facial proof, although some might disagree. The anonymous IP address is using CC's advice (there's nothing wrong with that, so don't get me wrong) to determine what is a Human and what is not. I do not see the IP edits as non faithful nor do I see them as vandalism. However, those unidentified criminals wearing those hats are a bit tricky since their face (minus their mouths) are covered. Birok is obviously Human to me. If this persists, then I would recommend starting a new SH. Hope that clears any confusion.  JangFett  (Talk) 13:49, September 23, 2013 (UTC)

Star Wars Insider 145
I'm trying to upload an image for SWI145 but I am not allowed. If I email the pic to you will you upload it?

Ninjedi (talk) 20:53, September 27, 2013 (UTC)

I'm sorry but it seems to me the most useful way to catalog a category is to apply both the category and subcategory to the relevant pages. Take this example of starships, the main starship page should show links to all starships on the wiki then if a user wants to refine the list he can click on a subcategory, say stafighters, that page would then show all the starships that are considered starfighters and then he can further refine his list by clicking on snubfighters. As it stands if a page is in a subcategory the page doesnt show up in the parent category, which isn’t very useful. My proposed method is a little bit more work but far more organized and useful.--121.218.164.22 03:36, September 29, 2013 (UTC)

Vespid
Please be specific when blasting me for adding unverified information. Nothing I added to the Vespid edit was unverified or unverifiable. If you disagree, please tell me which things and I will be happy to discuss them. Thanks

Here are some links and research regarding Vespid vs Mantid species. First, let us examine the dictionary definitions of both vespid and mantid:

Vespid: n. any of numerous, mostly colonial, nest-building wasps of the family Vespidae, as the yellow jackets, hornets, and mason.

Mantid: n. predacious long-bodied large-eyed insect of warm regions; rests with forelimbs raised as in prayer [syn: mantis]

Now that we have a basic definition of the differences between Vespid and Mantid species, let us examine the example given in the Star Wars Wiki definition of Vespid:

"Vespids were a subgroup of insects. The Yam'rii were considered a vespid species." []

The Yam'rii, huh? Click on the link. Look at the picture. What does that look like to you, a wasp or a mantis?

It should be obvious at this point that the Yam'rii are an inaccurate representation of a vespid species. So either the it's the wrong picture, or it's the wrong definition. Here's a hint; it's not the wrong picture. The question is, therefore, what species of insectoid aliens would make a better 'wasp-like' example?

In my edit, I included two: The Kamarians and the X'ting. Click on those links, and look at the pictures. You will agree that they are distinctly more wasp-like than the Yam'rii, which are clearly mantid.

You'll also find on those links the sources in which these species appear. In the case of the Kamarians, Dark Nest III: The Swarm War remains a consistent source, but for the X'Ting, simply scroll down to "Appearances" on the wiki itself and you'll see the sources I listed in my edit, which are The Cestus Deception and The Hive.

From the evidence above, it should be clear by now that my edit of the Vespid entry was well-founded and thoroughly researched. I thank you for your vigilance, but I ask that in the future you include specific criticisms to help those whose entries you insist on rewriting, and that you make sure your research is on point as well.

Thank you for this experience. Going forward, I will make sure I keep a copy of every edit I do, so when an entry of mine is erroneously reverted or deleted, I can much more easily correct such a blatant error.

176.25.65.197 16:09, November 19, 2013 (UTC) Saying he is humanoid is not true because back in 2009, the creator of the article said he was human and sometime between now and then he has been changed from human to humanoid. That act was a fanon act and before then it said he was human so it was right before it was changed, not after. 176.25.65.197 16:09, November 19, 2013 (UTC)

Harrison Ford quote
Hi Trip, I initially removed the quote on the page because the source link is broken & unreliable. While the specific source associated with the quote that is linked on the page is available via IEArchive, the author of the actual article is only recalling a quote as he remembers it rather than Harrison actually being "quoted" directly as a primary source. While I believe it is possible that Harrison did say the quote, in recent years I've seen it quoted by more reliable sources without the expletive altogether. Shouldn't we be sourcing the quote to wherever he was initially quoted rather than what may be a rumor remembered by some random who heard it from someone else?
