Categories
Remember to categorize your articles. I know it can be a little difficult to know which article goes in which category, but you should browse the categories to get a feel of which it should go in. -- SFH 00:46, 18 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Republic article's "Behind the scenes"
Why must you constantly add in that worthless paragraph? It has nothing to do with the Republic. And if you hate what Lucas did, don't put it into the articles. Admiral J. Nebulax 21:34, 19 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * I don't know if it's worthless, but anyway it's worth questioning :P I added it again and again only because I thought the save function did not work properly. MoffRebus 21:38, 19 Dec 2005 (UTC)

Skirmish
Thank you for adding in your "behind the scenes" thoughts on my Skirmish in Mos Eisley article. Haha, I see above that Nebulax is giving you a hard time as he often will. Thanks again. Wolfdog 04:29, 30 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * You are welcome. I am also happy when someone other contribute in my articles. Games are underestimated and we can gather significant information when putting them together. MoffRebus 15:08, 1 Jan 2006 (UTC)

Claim
You claim you started Galaxy, however I copied that article from Wikipedia and you only added to it. Same with The Galaxy. Were you the creator of the article on Wikipedia? -- Riffsyphon1024 23:49, 9 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * Yup, I am referring to Wikipedia, back when I looked Star Wars stuff there. Later I saw the Galaxy article was copied from there. I felt honoured MoffRebus 00:09, 10 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * It was going to happen anyway, considering it was already a template of what we've expanded on. I wouldn't get too excited. -- Riffsyphon1024 18:29, 10 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * That's not a reason not to feel nice though MoffRebus 20:46, 10 Jan 2006 (UTC)

Pointless Articles
Please don't make anymore fake, pointless articles like "Heavy weapon" or "Mech units" again. JimRaynor55 00:58, 10 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * They are nor pointless nor fake, since they are classifications from Galactic Battlegrounds. So I can't promise because I don't know which you would describe as such in the future MoffRebus 01:05, 10 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * That is game mechanics then, and if you haven't noticed, we are attempting to merge a bunch of mechanics with Star Wars: Battlefront II. -- Riffsyphon1024 18:30, 10 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * I thought they could be game mechanics, but the information of the 'Database' feature of the game, was given in the form of some background history which explained, more or less, the advance of warfare and technology. Those descriptions made the classifications more important and interesting than some list that would go in the game's article, and definitely not 'pointless' or 'fake'. I will merge them in the game article then. MoffRebus 20:30, 10 Jan 2006 (UTC)

Where form have you got those images?

New articles
Hey, remember to add the appropriate stub tags (such as ) to new, short articles. Also, please add soures and/or appearances to them. Thanks! :) --Imp 23:27, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

Bryar Pistol
Howdy Moff. You seem to be one of the go-to guys when it comes to questions about Dark Forces weapons, so I'd love your input on this. Do you think the Bryar Blaster Pistol and the Modified Bryar Pistol are the same gun, or different models in the Bryar line? I haven't quite worked up the courage to just go ahead and merge the two articles.... SM-716 02:25, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
 * This has also confused me but I hoped there wold be a solution here. I was wrong. To me, there is indication that they are different. Bryar Blaster Pistol seems to come out as such, while Modified Bryar Pistol is just the Bryar Rifle sawed. If you look at the images, the MBP has a clip stuck on its left side, while there is no room for that in the pic of the BBP. Notice also that the name is inconsistent. However information and description hints that it's the same thing. MoffRebus 10:23, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Hey there
I'm from South Carolina (sadly). What brings it up? Thanos6 08:43, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Ah, the Greek thing. Yeah, I get tons of Greek people asking me that, sometimes they even greet me in Greek. :) Actually, I named myself after a Marvel Comics supervillain, see HERE. Thanos6 10:36, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

Animated starfighter gallery
Here is a page for all of those animated schematics: Animated starfighter gallery. It has the A-wing, B-wing, X-wing, and Y-wing currently. - Bwingfreak

Copyrighted images
If you are going to use images that are copyrighted, such as HUD sprites from Dark Forces, please use the template so we can't get in trouble over their use. -- TheDarkArchon 22:18, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Relentless confusion
Perhaps you have better sources than I, but my sources don't explain which Relentless was at Gerrard V (though they did indicate the ones from Tatooine Manhunt, Otherspace, and the Thrawn Trilogy were the same ship.). Maybe you can help straighten out the confusion over on Talk:Relentless? Thanks, &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 13:32, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Formatting
When adding a behind the scenes section, please label it "Behind the scenes," and not "BtS." Kuralyov 23:20, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

RE: Calo Nord's demise location
No, the time and place is not fixed. -Moff Rebus

Please explain. --68.102.193.78 12:05, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Look at the "Behind the scenes" section of Calo Nord article. MoffRebus 12:15, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

Gungan war dates

 * Hi. Thanks for your message. The 3,020 BBY date is mentioned at the Gungans article, (which has sources). The 3,032 BBY is implied at sites like Otoh Gunga, which was founded at the end of the War of Gungan Tribes 3,000 years before the battle of Naboo, making it approximately 3,032 BBY. I'm pretty sure I actually saw this last date written in one article somewhere, but I'm not sure.


 * Basically what I've done with these dates, along with many others, is taken them from articles all over Wookiepedia, including "specific years" pages, (like 1,000 BBY). I think it's a good opportunity for us to go to the relevant articles from the timeline and do some "fact-checking" in Wookiepedia. So your question for me is exactly what I hoped would happen.
 * Furthermore, I've seen contradictary dates in several articles. For example, the crash of the Chu'unthor on Dathomir had a different date in three different articles:Chu'unthor, Dathomir, and the Witches of Dathomir! I brought it to some people's attention, and I just read a post where the proper date was confirmed with a proper source, (The NEC and PotJ list it as 340 BBY). So, in my opinion, this thorough timeline has demonstrated a practical function for Wookiepedia. Again thanks for your message! Jaywin 12:50, 28 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for straightening that out! I'll go fix it in the article, the "year" page, and the timeline. Jaywin 13:25, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Mandalorian Wars
Please explain your recent changes to the article on the talk page or I will continue to revert it. Your recent slash-and-burn edits are unncecessary and not well written. And I do not appreciate you copying and pasting the entire 'origins' section verbatim into another article. I wrote that entire section from scratch just a few days ago. I know this is a wiki, but even here there are limits to how much you should take credit for another person's work...--Sentry 09:38, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Star Trek canon
Yeah, I was refering to Star Wars canon. :) Adamwankenobi Talk to me! My home. 14:12, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

"Reversions".
Why did you revert Asajj Ventress and Corellia back to how they looked before other edits improved the articles? Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) 13:14, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Danuta, et al
Yes, I was going to post a comment on here anyway thanking you for the Death Star plans expansions. You surely know how I felt when I saw that the rebels facing the 501st Legion received sole credit for recovering them!

You have not played through Jedi Knight? Such a shame. After the duel with Jerec ends, the next cutscene is of a Lamba-class shuttle arriving in on an urban planet (Coruscant?) with two TIE escorts. Kyle descends with Sariss, whom we have not seen or heard from since Kyle decided to kill Jan but refused to join Jerec. Sariss says that their spies bring word of a small rebel uprising on Danuta (there is the mentioning). Kyle replies, "I have no time for petty uprisings. Extinguish them painfully." She responds, "Yes, Emperor." Kyle then ascends a long staircase, sits upon a throne, and after a moment retrieves a small holoprojector. It is the one we saw in the first cutscene of the game, of his father telling him how very proud he is (a picture of it appears early on the Kyle Katarn page). After replaying the first bit, Kyle appears obviously pained and drops it on the ground, smashing it with his boot. Wonderful.-BaronGrackle 00:47, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

The whills/Yoda/Supershadow
Hey. what was your source for the topps card not being named for the Whills? I'm pretty certain it wa. Thanks HavetStorm 17:53, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I just know that Yoda's species is identified with the Whills by Supershadow, so I find it hard that a Topps card would be so misled. MoffRebus 18:12, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Sequel trilogy
Rather than get into a revert war, can I just ask you to give a source for the idea that the Thrawn Trilogy "officially" takes the place of the sequel trilogy over on Talk:Sequel trilogy? I've never heard this fact outside of Wookieepedia. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 22:25, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

"Seven Dark Jedi" name
I've just looked through an online copy of the Jedi Knight game manual and posted some thoughts on the Seven Dark Jedi talk page. You originally suggested it might be a conjectural name; I'd appreciate your input on it now. I won't object if you care to add the template yourself, either; I just wanted to get some consensus from other gamers first. -BaronGrackle 09:23, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

RA II expansion
Thanks for the praise. I'm still not quite done yet. I'll add images on Merrick, Rece and Till soon.-Challenger STA 14:40, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
 * whoa. not much more to do in terms of Rebel Assault II, I guess. --Challenger STA
 * Added the requested Murleen portrait. --Challenger STA 10:51, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Re: Template:Familytree
Hey there, I was just wondering if you were planning on doing anything further with Familytree or if it could be deleted. Thanks, RMF 22:23, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

RE:The One
Do you have any evidence that "The One" was a title that was inherited from the time period of the Infinite Empire? If not, I am afraid that it is pure speculation.– 20:44, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
