Could you check if your objection still applies? --Eyrezer 01:18, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
 * It does. Somebody needs to source the homeworld and maybe even mention it somewhere within the article itself. Green Tentacle (Talk) 17:17, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

MK-09 on the Independence
"Welcome to the Independence!"
 * In case you check here before you check the WP:FAN page, I finally found the source of Ace and Emkay transferred to the Liberty: After the Battle of Endor, back on the main concourse screen, an audio cue goes out which states:

- Rebel officer on comm system


 * That's what I had heard, so I simply added the information to the Ace and Emkay articles. Jorrel [[Image:Wiki-shrinkable.png|20px]] Fraajic 17:06, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

text color
Is there any way to change text color? I'd like to know for many reasons, mainly custom userboxes. Roger Roger 19:54, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

confused
The top bar today is... confusing. Could you please clarify what "Acting possessed" means? Or do we have the Darth Sidious of bureaucrats vandalizing the top bar? Please clear it up. Thank you in advance. Roger Roger 21:13, 16 November 2007 (UTC) P.S.: if weird edits have been showing up, maybe it's the droids. After all, it could happen.

My Zekka Thyne featured page nomination
Hey, my name's Colin. I've been working very hard on the Zekka Thyne page for a featured article nomination, and as of right now, I've added all the pics and info I can get my hands on, read and reported on all the material the character is featured in, and addressed almost every concern that's been voiced.

The only thing that hasn't been addressed is that the article is lacking specific information about the Star Wars Galaxies missions Zekka assigns. Unfortunately, I can't find that information anywhere online, and since I haven't had a SWG account in years, I can't log on and find it myself. I'm hoping somebody will add that eventually, but in the grand scheme of things, I think it's pretty minor information, and would argue it shouldn't hold up its nomination.

I've been told the nomination has potential but doesn't have the votes, and that I should ask some people to review it for me. (I haven't actively asked people yet; I've never really gone through this process before.) I was hoping maybe you'd take a look at it and see if it's worthy of a vote from you? Or give me any further suggestions? I'd really appreciate it!

Thanks!

--ColinMcEv, Sept. 26, 21:43
 * Sorry, but the Galaxies info still needs to be included per rule 9 ("have significant information from all sources and appearances, especially a biography for character articles"). I don't have Galaxies or I'd be happy to help out. All I can suggest is that you try our IRC channel and see if anybody can help. Green Tentacle (Talk) 19:17, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Executor's role at Battle of Mygeeto

 * I thought you might be able to provide some information concerning the Executor's role/involvement at the Battle of Mygeeto in some detail, as I see you are working on the Imperial Ace page, so that I may add it to the Executor page. Thanks. Toprawa and Ralltiir 18:23, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, thank you much. Toprawa and Ralltiir 21:12, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
 * The Battle of Mygeeto page lists that the battle takes place in 0 ABY, shortly after the Fifth Battle of Yavin IV, which is seemingly incorrect considering that Piett leads the fleet, and also the involvement of TIE Interceptors, A-wings, and B-wings this early in the war. Does it truly take place this early? Toprawa and Ralltiir 05:33, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Though, now that I look at the Imperial Ace page you're working on, I see you list the battle as taking place in 3 ABY. Is there any indication as to when in 3 ABY this happens, i.e., before/after SOTE? Toprawa and Ralltiir 05:47, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

What?
What do u mean it's not official? Half the ones on Wookiepedia aren't! Anyway, wot makes it any less official than a normal gameplay one? Tell me wot faults there are in it!

From Darth tom
Sorry, I was a bit harsh. Plz tell me Y it's unofficial. I hav stopped putting it there, unless I find that it is official. I'm kinda new, and I've only done that article and created the article 'Rikoon Tost' which is currently unsourced. (I'm not too good with sources!) Any help would be appreciated.

Soz, and thanx again.

--Darth tom 18:49, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

I meant Riklon Tost. I can't seem to get this right! Plz reply.

From Darth tom
Thank you. Now I see. I have added another picture of roughly the same thing, so please can u check it for me? (It's still on the Valley of the Drak Lords) Also, Is it OK if I take photos of games with my own camera and stick 'em on here?

P.S. As a regulator/moderator/ wotever u r, u may want to know about (U probably already do) these Star Wars Miniatures things, which are kinda like that warhammer thing, but Star Wars. I first found 'em on http://www.gamehollow.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=21_22 thanks again. Bye!

How do you...again...?
OK Green Tentacle, I need help. Like I said before, I'm new to this, but I just tried clicking on my username thing up in the lefthand corner, and it says I don't exist!!! Aaaaaaa!!! The only thing that it will go to is My Preferences and My Watchlist, and that's not what everyone else's userpages are like. Please help! Eleste Thel-Tanis 23:32, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

Award idea
I think we should have the "Master and Apprentice award" for helping new Wookieepedians learn the ropes here. I would like a picture of Obi-Wan and Anakin or Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon to be on the award. The text should read: I, (presenter) do award (receiver) the Master and Apprentice award for helping (Assisted User). The receiving user should tell and the user they assisted should confirm. I'd do it, but I don't know how. ~Roger Roger~ Home of the B1s 23:46, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

GreenDragon
Is there any way that you could unblock User:GreenDragon, which is my original user name blocked infinitely by User:Darth Culator?

'''I will only contribute to your Talk page and my own, hopefully as we can get some meaningful dialogue across. While this request is pending, I will not edit any other articles as that would be sock puppetry.'''

Yes, I did get the infinite block because I missed User:Darth Culator's warnings on "Nova Wing" in the Missile Boat article...that was my mistake as I was informed a couple weeks ago that it was not an official name. I have also realized how serious your policy on "no fanon" is, so I've stayed away from TIE Defender after my first block.

Aside from "Nova Wing", which I will not reinstate, I can find sources for my additions to Missile Boat, to prove that it is not fanon. Notably as the Missile Boat did clear Type C mines during the attack on Tarrak's TIE Defender factory, that a training mission for the Missile Boat did teach the pilot how to defend a craft from warheads and destroy a station's anti-warhead defense, and that the flight officer advised the pilot to use advanced missiles as rockets during the Missile Boat's first deployment in capturing the Nami Strike Cruiser Nuance etc.

I would like to work with you to make sure that my contributions can be implemented, all without upsetting the article's FA status.

My criticism of User:Darth Culator is that I believe he acted in too quick a manner, without giving me any true warning. If I am wrong, please correct me.

WildKard 18:15, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
 * All I can do is discuss it with the blocking admin and Culator feels that there is no reason to rescind the ban. Green Tentacle (Talk) 20:59, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Should I continue editing under my new name? WildKard 19:43, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

With that said, could I have your support on Missile Boat so I can implement my contributions, while removing the fanon references? At least, give me a chance and if there are any objections, I would like to be able to address them. WildKard 19:43, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, I've spoken to Culator and he doesn't have a problem with it. So you should be ok to edit under your new name, but I would avoid making any edits that go against policy in future. Green Tentacle (Talk) 19:49, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Vandalisation detected and repaired.
Green tentacle, this is Admiral jolyon. I have located someone vandalising Wookieepedia on Jacen Solo. I have realtered the article, and found out that the user behind the vandalisation is identified by his I.P. Address 72.28.28.127. I wish to give him a warning if not prevent him from doing so again (Admiral jolyon 19:57, 16 January 2008 (UTC)).
 * Thanks for pointing that out. Culator's banned him. Green Tentacle (Talk) 20:10, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

This is Admiral jolyon, You're welcome, I'll let you know if I find anymore vandalism. (Admiral jolyon 20:21, 16 January 2008 (UTC))

I didn't even notice that it was closed because I thought that once a CT was closed it got archived. - JMAS 18:55, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

Locked image
Would you be willing to briefly unlock Image:Character Maris 02.jpg so I can adjust the categorization of it? It's currently categorized to Category:Images from Star Wars: The Force Unleashed but since TFU is a multimedia project, I made a more specific category Category:Images from Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (video game) that I'd like to move that image to. Thanks. - JMAS 19:12, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Done. Not sure it still needs to be locked now anyway. Green Tentacle (Talk) 19:15, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Zekka Thyne
Hey. I talked to you a while back about my Zekka Thyne featured page. At the time, it couldn't make it to FA status because I couldn't get the SWG information, but now I've been advised to change the SWG Thyne into a different page, since it is an altogether different species. I've done that, cleaned up the page and renominated it and so far, there are no objections to the nomination that haven't been addressed. Perhaps you wouldn't mind considering the FA nomination again?

Thanks!

I don't know if I can accually do this but please help me with this, even though it has'nt been officially approved. Thanks Jangowan
 * Alas, I do not actually know Mr. Lucas. Nor do I know how to contact him. Nor do I think he'd be particularly interested in being contacted. However, you might want to take it to the Star Wars Fanon Wiki. Green Tentacle (Talk) 23:55, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Zekka Thyne
Hey, my name's Colin and I've nominated Zekka Thyne for an FA. I've addressed all the objections and done a lot of work on it and so far, it looks like it's on its way, but it still needs a few more Inq approvals. Would you maybe consider giving it a look?

Thanks!

Help with pics!
I have a problem. I made a picture by myself to put on my user page. However, in my picture, I have the Lowe's logo that I got from Wikipedia and shrunk it down to fit in a certain part. Would it violate copyright laws to upload this picture? Fisto johnson larry 21:27, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

OK thank you. I have patience. Patience is the key to the answer. May the Force be with you.

Hey man. Thanks for your support with Zekka Thyne. I've nominated Evir Derricote and so far I think the objections have been addressed, but it's not been read by too many people yet. Maybe you could give it a look when you have time? --Colinmcev 07:08, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

KOTOR III news
Hey dude I need you to check out this article since no one has noticed yet and I beleive to be of extreme importantance here at the bottom of the page titled ""New news about KOTOR 3". Please I really think someone needs to see it.

Mailing list
Hey, GT. I've set up a private administrator mailing list to help coordinate the current administrators of the site, and I am attempting to contact each administrator to get them to subscribe. You can subscribe here. My point with setting up this mailing list to get all of the administrators of Wookieepedia operating on the same page, and in a more unified fashion. Regardless of any personal differences that may exist between some members, I still feel that it is important that we are all operating on the same level, with regards to knowledge of the site, and new/upcoming stuff that is going to happen&mdash;so, basically, this is an attempt to coordinate us all in an effort to help keep us on the same page with regards to new policies, new ideas, announcements, discussions, etc. In my opinion, we're all on the same team and this will only help us to be a more organized and cohesive working unit&mdash;even more so than we currently are. I've already spoken with a few admins via IRC, and they have liked my point of this whole thing, and have thus signed up&mdash;I would really appreciate it you could do likewise :) Any questions about this, you know where you can reach me.

Kylaena
Hi, i have encounter a bit of a problem creating a new article. I wanted to created one for a new Star Wars Galaxies character called Kylaena, who is a Twi'lek. I found out that there was already an article for another SWG character called Kylaena, a human, but I did some research and found that the human Kylaena was actually called Kylaena Hayley, so I moved the article to that. However "Kylaena" redirects to that article, so I have created an article for the Twi'lek Kylaena under the temporary name Kylaena X, until this problem can be resolved. --Tom rules 14:06, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Does it really have to be in a subpage? I read the signature policy, but it didn't say it had to be a subpage. It only said it could be one. 23:33, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
 * It doesn't have to be in a subpage in that you can just set it directly through your preferences like I have. However, if you do make a page for it then it should indeed be a user subpage and not in the template namespace. Green Tentacle (Talk) 17:54, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
