Luke Skywalker

 * Welcome to Wookieepedia Solus! May I ask you why you trimmed that much content from Luke Skywalker? Recently at Wookieepedia a number of us have been trying to add more detail to the major characters' articles, and it seemed to me that you removed much of that content. I'm going to revert your changes, but if you feel your approach was better, by all means bring it up on Talk:Luke Skywalker. At any rate, it's usually a good idea to discuss the changes you want to make before you cut a large amount of material from an article.
 * Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't really realize how much content I had removed, when I get the thing copied on Word for grammar check and stuff I lose track. I don't mind you reverting it, I'll grammar check and this time keep the stuff. Sorry about that. Thank you for bringing that to my attention, I'll try to keep better track this time. -Solus 03:17, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * No problem. My writing can probably use the grammar check. I just get a little jumpy when all this text starts disappearing! ;-) Cheers. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 04:27, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Is this new grammar overhaul better? I made sure not to take away a lot, and added a lot more than I took away. -Solus 16:42, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Removing tags
Please do not remove tags for personal reasons. Kuralyov 20:05, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, I apologize. I knew nothing of the CT discussion and I thought the DO NOT MERGE message was 'engraved in stone' metaphorically. I thought it was just someone ignoring the message. -Solus 20:07, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Anakin Skywalker Temp
Great work on it! I didn't have the mental stability to do anything but the plot summary, but it's shaping up nicely. . .  .  .  01:35, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much! I'm trying to work on it, I still have a lot to do, especially in image placement. -Solus 01:37, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Something you need to know.
When doing plurals of links that have an "s" on the end, please do not do something like this: Adegan crystals. The proper way is to do it like this: Adegan crystals. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) 22:56, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Categories
Hey Solus, thanks for helping recategorize those weapon pages. One thing, though: There's no need to add Category:Weapons to every article&mdash;please use purely the subcategories (such as Category:Blaster weapons). --Imp 19:21, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Your vote
In Forum:We should hold a consensus for Anakin and Vader's articles to be split up again!, you voted to "keep as is", yet in the comments, you seemed to support either option 1 or 2. Is this a mistake or did you change your mind?-- Lord Oblivion Sith holocron 13:10, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

WCR

 * Do you still need weapons turned to Category:Other weapons? Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 00:05, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry- I'm slightly confused- would you like me to help with re-categorizing weapons to Other weapons, leave them as is, or start the new categories? Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 00:12, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Ah, thanks for clearing that up. By the new categories, I meant the ones that were approved on the CT. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 00:17, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Fanfic

 * It's certainly interesting and unique, with a level of depth and culture that I've been working on for mine, just been busy with Lando's article. I recommend you take a nice look at the verb tenses- it tended to switch from present to past. I'll read it more in depth later, but nice going so far. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 06:08, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Just one question also: Your Bullett and Manta fighters are going to have a hard time against the Vong, because the dovin basals on Yuuzhan Vong capital ships are capable of swallowing starfighters whole. Also, grutchins can chew through practically any hull material, so those nifty little ramships will run into problems. The metal launchers might be more effective, but still. In ground combat, what kind of weapons do the Shapeshifters have? It seems to me like razor bugs would pose quite a threat to them. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 06:17, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Dovin basals were unique little toys the Vong brought with them from their Galaxy. They served as propulsion and shielding for the Vong. I'm not sure what you mean by "biological generator." If you mean the equivalent of a reactor, no, they don't. As their stuff is alive, it doesn't need an external power source. No problem. I'll read it some more a little later. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 17:29, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
 * No, they grow dovin basals by the hundreds. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 18:23, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
 * You're welcome. :-) Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 18:27, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Looks good to me, thanks for the copy and paste. Interesting note: It makes for interesting reading when the Vong are pitted against a species as dedicated about winning as they are. ;-) Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 03:06, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Very nice on the language bit. I could understand it fairly well. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 22:12, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, first of all, in American English, which is used here, "sentence" is the appropriate spelling. The boxed examples you have are pretty well understandable, but the explanations underneath are a bit choppy. Maybe try using bullet text on those, just to point a list of guidelines. That might help some. To be honest, I'm not going to try reading it to learn how to use it. I just have too many other things to do, and people aren't exactly going to come up and ask me how to parse sentences in Shikkri. :-P For anyone who's going to read that much into it, it looks good. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 01:33, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
 * No problem. Yeah, it looks pretty good. I need to write more on my fanfic, but the Cabal admins have got me working hard on various things (Lando mostly). And I don't mind that kind of ranting. I like authors like Tolkien who really create a whole culture, so it was an intriguing read, just don't expect me to use Shikkri! ;-) Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 02:42, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Both and Tolkien tried to create a culture for your fantasy worlds. ;-) It's been busy for me, but good luck with the fanfic. Mine took awhile to write too, and it's still not done. Oh, and Mae govannen. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 04:37, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Literally "well met," but it basically means "nice to meet you." Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 15:50, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Re:
Your fanfic is really interesting. I liked the way you introduced a whole civilation that has a unique culture. It's really unique. By the way thanks for reading mines. Jaina Solo ( Goddess Stuff ) 23:15, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
 * No prob :). I think your fanfic is perfect but I want to see what happens to the Shapeshifters next.  Jaina Solo ( Goddess Stuff ) [[Image:Jainasolosig.gif |25px]] 01:47, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
 * You're very welcome. I can't wait until the new section is added. Jaina Solo ( Goddess Stuff ) [[Image:Jainasolosig.gif |25px]] 02:35, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry I took so long to respond, I've been very busy. I just finished reading the language section, which I have to say is very good. I understand the sentence structure but it can be a bit confusing if you try to speak it or write it. Your fanfic is coming along nicely, I would give it a two thumbs up. Jaina Solo ( Goddess Stuff ) [[Image:Jainasolosig.gif |25px]] 02:54, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
 * You're very welcome. :) Jaina Solo ( Goddess Stuff ) [[Image:Jainasolosig.gif |25px]] 13:25, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Image:Honor blade.jpg

 * Neat image. Is that the palace at Huế in the background? jSarek 22:15, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
 * You're welcome. Having looked things up a bit, it seems that the palace at Huế was intentionally made to resemble China's Forbidden City, which is why it looked like Huế to me.  As for how I made the special characters . . . well, I cheat too; I copied them from the Wikipedia article after searching for "Hue" took me to an article about colors. ;-) jSarek 00:52, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Refanfic
Hey sorry it took so long to reply my PC had a virus so I needed to clean the whole thing :p and thanks, I'm reading more books now and then I'll write some more, and you pronnounce it like: Gal-Edze, but more as you type it Galedze no 'pause' to name it. greetz Galedze ( Connection Trough The Force )
 * Hello there yet again, I've read you fanfic, and I gotta say you have well 'guts' ( in a good way ) to just do something else instead of making one character you make a whole species with history and eveyrthing. Also did you make up the language yourself? greetz Galedze ( Connection Trough The Force ) [[Image:Galedze.jpg|25px]]
 * Hey thanks, now for the funny part I didn't make the story to fit in the Hero cycle, it just fitted right but since I'm so far I'm going to make the attack by family member too.... it's gonna be something cool but first I need to read all the books. Galedze ( Connection Trough The Force ) [[Image:Galedze.jpg|25px]]
 * Yeah it's gonna be nice but it while still take a while before I will make it since it will take place a pretty few years from where the story is now and since I read the books and then write my story so it will fit... I'm still in Dark Nest 2 so it will take a while :p but I think you can already guess it... now that I think of it's a pretty big rip off.... but my rip off! :D Galedze ( Connection Trough The Force ) [[Image:Galedze.jpg|25px]]
 * And may I ask what you think I'm gonna do? ;) ( ofcourse I can't confirm it even fi you did guess it wrong since I don't know what will happen in the Legacy of the Force series...yet ;p ) but I would liek to hearn your guess Galedze ( Connection Trough The Force ) [[Image:Galedze.jpg|25px]]
 * Haha, very close opserving, ok I trust you won't go screamign aroudn this thought but it's true, I still need to find a good way to set the son against the father, and it will still take a while for two reasons 1. I still need to read all the books ( for example If I write something now let's just do something dramatic that Jacen turns Gal-El along with other Jedi to the dark side *just an example* and then I read in legacy of the force 9 that Jacen's dies, could happen but you know what I mean ) 2. Personnaly I want to wait a few years in the story itself personnaly I don't think a young boy ( gal-el ) is much of a challenge against a Jedi who has become one with the force, even if he is his son, I would say minimum age 18 that would make 44 ABY minimum Galedze ( Connection Trough The Force ) [[Image:Galedze.jpg|25px]]
 * that is a possibility, but I don't want the typical story that Gal-El is turning to the dark side just because daddy was saving him and every oen else in the war :p no I want them to love eachother more like the duel between anakin and obi-wan but more... bonding perhaps, they don't wanna kill each other -spiler warning- that will not happen ( I'm planning a whole legacy ) no and what will aheppen to Eleya I don't know yet, either way I have already thought for a love for Gal-El she is already in ym story briefly. But I don't want them to hate eachother, I'm perhaps even thinking that there both on a 'good' isde just from different points of view. And I also don't want Gal-El to become one with the Force, not there because I think it would just be too much no Galedze is the first and strongest of his Legacy. Galedze ( Connection Trough The Force ) [[Image:Galedze.jpg|25px]]
 * Yes well if you click on the picture on my user page you'll notice some photoshop work ;) that's basicly it althought there are two factors wrong 1. Gal's Face ( my face :p ) is mixed with that of obi-wan so hell look like obi-wan sort of I didnt want to post a picture of just me :p 2. I'm still a teenager without a beard.... so well yeah you can figure it out :p but to answere your question look close on the images on my page and you can see Gal-El as a sort of anakin/obi-wan, not as hard looking as anakin, but not as 'oldery' as obi just check it out. Galedze ( Connection Trough The Force ) [[Image:Masterobis.jpg|25px]]



Do you see!? :p Galedze ( Connection Trough The Force )
 * Well ok you go on my user page yes? You think you see two images of Obi-Wan on in the character box and one below next to the hero cycle yeah. Click on them so you them enlarged you see a...bit of a younger guy in obi's face. That's me and thats how Galedze looks like :) :p, you like his appearance?! :p ( I schould ask that to the ladies but ok :p ) Galedze ( Connection Trough The Force ) [[Image:Masterobis.jpg|25px]]
 * Sorry I just ened to do this you can delete it if you want :p
 * your very welcome, you could also check that other pic on my page out and compare it with Obi-Wan's perhaps that will give even more clearance :p either way is that drawing on your page you?, it's kinda like Anakin Solo. Galedze ( Connection Trough The Force ) [[Image:Masterobis.jpg|25px]]
 * haha...I'm so Blond! :p I says it aint a drawing of yourself beside it and when you click on it... But hey!...uhm... I have my face on Obi-Wan?... :p but I was close enough with the anakin part either way it looks nice.. Galedze ( Connection Trough The Force ) [[Image:Masterobis.jpg|25px]]
 * Well you can read it in the first section of my fanon, a Black Hilt and a Blue beam, I looked for a nice image but I count really find 'the one' Galedze ( Connection Trough The Force ) [[Image:Masterobis.jpg|25px]]
 * haha where even now ;) ( remember the drawing ) Galedze ( Connection Trough The Force ) [[Image:Masterobis.jpg|25px]]
 * Merry Christmas to you too! Galedze ( Connection Trough The Force ) [[Image:Masterobis.jpg|25px]] 15:46, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

KEJ = A guy with brown hair and freckles.
What makes you think I look like that? I'm just curious. KEJ 23:14, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Orphan tag
Hi there. I see that you've been putting the tag on some images. This tag is only needed when a file is being linked to but the articles doesn't show up under the "Links" section. Once you place an image in an article, that article's name will show up there, so the tag isn't necessary in those cases. Hope this helps! -- Ozzel 21:13, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
