Re: revert
Hey Obi-Wan,

I reverted your edit because while the KOTOR campaign guide does explicitly state he was "a perfect being," it becomes redundant at that point where the article states he was a "god." Perhaps if it were added to the P&T section it would appear less repetitive. I'm sorry I didn't leave an explanation in the edit summary, and I appreciate you taking the time to confer with me about the matter.

I also noticed that you seem to be fond of things regarding Tales of the Jedi. Have you ever considered participating in Tales of the Jedi project? Let me know your thoughts on this and the Adas thing, and thanks again ;) —Tommy9281  ( No truth in me ) 23:49, November 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hey no sweat man. Wookieepedia is a community, and try to promote that sentiment through friendliness whenever an opportunity presents itself. As far as TOTJ goes, I actually spearhead the project and have a considerable amount of knowledge regarding all involved subjects. If you ever need assistance with that or anything else I can probably help you; if not, I can certainly point you in the right direction. I'm usually available more often than not so you can email me or drop a line on my talk page if ever you need anything. Thanks a lot for joining the project, and I look forward to working with you. —Tommy9281 Dark side Master SWGTCG.jpg ( No truth in me ) 00:50, November 10, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Acting Dark Lord
Huh, I never saw that before. I guess I'll check it out and see how I can integrate it.  IFYLOFD  ( You will pay the price for your lack of vision! ) 21:54, December 7, 2009 (UTC)

Hey Obi-wan,

I spoke to Floyd last night & let him know you were trying to get in contact with him. He saw your message but forgot to reply because he had some other stuff come up. I'm glad you two were able to come to an agreement. Let me know if you need anything else. —Tommy9281  ( No truth in me ) 00:52, December 15, 2009 (UTC)

Re:Sith species
Hi yah, Obi-wan. The article says that players who choose the Sith Inquisitor class start out as a slave on Korriban. The slave overseers, which are pure-blood members of the Sith species, spot the slave's force potential, but are loathe to work with such human scum, as the source puts it. Hope this is helpful to you :) Jinzler 23:21, January 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay, here is the quote:

The Inquisitor's harsh life begins as a human slave at the Sith Academy on Korriban... The overseers, members of the true-blood Sith species, see opportunity in the slave's innate abilities but are loathe to work with such human scum. --Jinzler 23:50, January 14, 2010 (UTC)

Sith beginnings
Hey Obi-Wan,

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I'm not sure of 130,000 BBY, but Jedi vs. Sith: The Essential Guide to the Force states that the Sith civilization began on Korriban in 100,000 BBY.14:57, January 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure if it would be considered fanon, perhaps someone just made a mistake. For now we can go with 100,000 BBY, and I'll check a few other sources to see if there is something I missed. —Tommy 9281 Mechnochair negwt.jpg ( Mechno-chair ) 23:28, February 1, 2010 (UTC)

IRC
Hey Obi-Wan,

Do you have access to IRC? If so, I'd like to meet with you sometime soon. —Tommy 9281  ( Mechno-chair ) 03:35, February 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * After the "How to Join" section, you'll see next major section says "Web client." click where you see the link that says "irc.wikia.com/starwars" and that should take you to the IRC page. Then you sign in with your username, no spaces, and you should be in. Keep me posted. —Tommy 9281 Mechnochair negwt.jpg ( Mechno-chair ) 04:18, February 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * You can also click here: irc.wikia.com/starwars to access the WP:TOTJ IRC channel. I'm usually there when I'm online. —Tommy 9281 Mechnochair negwt.jpg ( Mechno-chair ) 04:26, February 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * You comin? I'm not hangin around much longer. —Tommy 9281 Mechnochair negwt.jpg ( Mechno-chair ) 05:21, February 11, 2010 (UTC)

Hey
Hey Obi-wan,

If you're gonna be around tonight, I'd like to talk with you for a bit. Let me know. —Tommy 9281  ( Mechno-chair ) 01:09, February 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * No not Ravilan specifically, just to catch up on things. Hey that's no problem with me&mdash;I'm someone who totally understands (and advocates) for real life over Wookieepedia life, so you make sure you take care of that before all else. Like I told you, there is no rush for anything so don't feel like you're under any sort of time constraints. I'll be around, so we'll catch up sooner or later. PS, I recently acquired CSWE, so if you ever need me to look up anything for you I can do so. —Tommy 9281 Mechnochair negwt.jpg ( Mechno-chair ) 12:54, February 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes to many of those. If/when I catch you on IRC, I'll tell you what it says. —Tommy 9281 Mechnochair negwt.jpg ( Mechno-chair ) 23:50, February 20, 2010 (UTC)

Sith Species article
Oh right, sorry my bad. Didn't know you were working on it. Will stop any additions. Sorry about that again :( I will instead concentrate on the Sith Empire article instead. Maybe we can compare notes and stuff? I haven't really brought an article to "Featured Article" status before so any tips you can give me would be appreciated. Anyway, hope I didn't derail anything you had with the additions I made to the Sith species article :) Also, don't mind, feel free to cut what you wish and keep what you want. Darth Batrus 09:38, February 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * No problem, can't wait to see your article when its done :) Also, if you want anything from the Sith Empire article that I am working on then feel free to take what you need. I was going to add in the technology section about in the bit about construction of Sith structures a bit on Library-temple. Will refrain from doing that but if you are interested, I thought I should highlight it. Anyway, with you and me working on these articles, perhaps we can get all Sith related articles up and running :D Darth Batrus 10:32, February 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry to bother you again, forgot to mention. The source on the Sith species purge rivalling that of a Bothan Ar'krai is Evil Never Dies; the line says that it rivalled that of a Bothan declaration of Total War but I believe thats an Ar'krai. Anyway, hope that helps. Darth Batrus 11:51, February 27, 2010 (UTC)

Hyperspace
Hey, Obi-wan,

Yes, I do, although I don't quite know how to navigate it. Tell me what you need and I'll figure out how to find it. —Tommy 9281  ( Mechno-chair ) 01:48, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Can you meet me in IRC? I believe I have what you are looking for. —Tommy 9281 Mechnochair negwt.jpg ( Mechno-chair ) 04:46, February 28, 2010 (UTC)

Yo
I'm around if you need anything. —Tommy 9281 05:33, March 4, 2010 (UTC)

Ravilan
Hey,

Sorry I haven't responded to you, I thought that my reply emails had been going through but apparently they haven't. I want you to put the Inuse tag back up on Ravilan. Today, I'll go over it to make sure everything is up to standards. From what i've already seen, it looks pretty good. When it's all done, you'll be nominating the article, probably for FAN instead of GAN, and that's because of the abundance of content. I can't be the nominator because you are the primary author of the article. I can however help you see it through the process. Let me know what you think. —Tommy 9281 11:24, April 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * I did indeed. He and I work very closely together, and I always trust his copyedit skills on whatever projects I am working on. It is part of the review that I myself will be conducting. As you progress in skill on Wookieepedia, you will find that there are many Wookieepedians around whose services/skills/expertise you can rely on. Master Jonathan is one such individual. Also, with articles of decent length, it is good to have more than one eye looking over the work, as one may catch something that another has missed. —Tommy 9281 22:18, April 20, 2010 (UTC)

OK, I did a complete copy-edit on the article at Tommy's request and also compiled a rough list of objections. This isn't everything I would object to in a full review on FAN, but rather just some major stuff and a few smaller things that jumped out at me. First, a few small issues that I fixed but would like you to note for the future: OK, now let's get to objections: If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask me. :) &mdash;Master Jonathan(Jedi Council Chambers) 22:46, April 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * We use American spelling and punctuation on Wookieepedia, not British style; see WP:MOS for more details.
 * Hyperspace is not capitalized when referring to the in-universe term, only the OOU fan club.
 * Spaced en dashes are generally considered poor form, as are two hyphens; an em dash not surrounded by spaces should be used instead. Also, it's generally preferred to use the HTML code  to create an em dash rather than the actual character, as dashes and hyphens are nearly impossible to tell apart in the edit box (likewise,   should be used for en dashes). See WP:DASH for more details.
 * "With first priority to protect the cargo of Lignan crystals, Omen made preparations to go into hyperspace, but before they could jump, Harbinger started producing nonsensical sensor readings and began to lean very close to Omen, about to collide, and at the last moment the ship's experienced navigator, Boyle Marcom, had engaged the hyperdrive, sending Omen into hyperspace.": Run-on sentence; please break it up.
 * Characters with both a first and last name should not be referred to by first name only except when multiple characters have the same last name. The Korsins are OK, but Adari Vaal should be referred to by her last name.
 * "not knowing that by this time the Sith Empire had already fell." This cannot be sourced to Paragon. Please find an appropriate source for it.
 * Please try to standardize the lengths of your paragraphs. Right now, they come in all shapes and sizes.
 * I'm noticing severe underlinking thorough the majority of the article.
 * "Ravilan and Yaru were talking, and then": This is unnecessary detail that probably should be removed.
 * "Jariad stepped forward and Ravilan saw him coming as he wielded a jagged vibroblade and leapt at Ravilan, cutting him down with his lightsaber." I can't figure out what you mean here. First, you say he had a vibroblade, then a lightsaber. Please clarify.
 * Please check the P&T closely for speculation/OR. I see at least a couple of statements that sound like original research. If it's not explicitly stated in the source, it shouldn't be there.

Ol' Ludo
Hey dude,

Check the talk page of 5000 BBY. More recent sources have retconned the war as having taken place strictly during 5,000 BBY. Menkooroo 13:52, April 21, 2010 (UTC)

Hey
Hey Obi-wan,

My computer is back on line now so I'll be able to access IRC. I want to meet with you one of these days so we can go over Ravilan. Let me know when you'll be around. Thanks, —Tommy 9281 22:44, April 30, 2010 (UTC)
