Gotab/Bardan Jusik
it has been revealed that the characters Gotab and Bardan Jusik are the same person and i think that someone needs to merge their articles. This has been known for a while, yet nothing has happened, so i was wondering if you would be able to help. I am contacting a number of admins as well, so hopefully this will be able to be sorted out as soon as possible. Thanks for any help u can give me --Tom Slaughts 12:54, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Tom, you really need to be doing this on the article's talk page, not on the talk pages of administrators who might be busy with other projects. However, you could also be bold and merge them yourself if you have sufficient proof that they are the same person. Find out which name is used more, and redirect the other article towards that. --  Riffsyphon  1024 16:48, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Question about installing template
I think the template in your wookiepedia is great. I would like to install it in my Wikia. How do you install it?lexshu 10:09, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Which template exactly? We have thousands. --  Riffsyphon  1024 21:57, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Leech Legion
No problemo. I have to say I find a Leech Legion more interesting than a Leech Region. :-P Cull Tremayne 05:51, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
 * True. Only that Dan was on a roll with regions that I didn't expect a Legion. Either should be great, but now we have to wait until 2009!?!?! --  Riffsyphon  1024 05:52, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks man
they seemed to have atleast unbanned my laptops ISP and my name. so for now justice is served Valin &quot;Tnu&quot; &quot;Shido&quot; Suul 03:24, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Well none of that was my doing but your ban should have expired by now. --  Riffsyphon  1024 04:40, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Battlefront III
Does this edit mean that you've seen some credible confirmation that BF3 has been announced (since you spell-checked the claim rather than deleting it as obvious fiction)? --Andrew Nagy 18:09, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
 * At the time I was hoping for the possibility, because of the news of the companies wanting to work on it. However, now that more information points to it being false, I do not continue to support it. Consider however that this was before Renegade Squadron on PSP, the third part of the Battlefront series. --  Riffsyphon  1024  03:08, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Deleting the admin skin
Any reason you deleted MediaWiki:AdminSkin? That was the only way to view the custom skin (the one with Hoth in the banner bar). Just wondering your reasons. JorrelFraajic  22:04, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I think this is a misunderstanding. I did not delete anything at all. The same happened to Xwing328 when he tried it out and changed his back. All I did was change my preferences and back. Apparently the system thinks we are deleting what we choose not to use, however the site itself is running on the new setting, that is unless you choose to stick to Monobook. Try it out for yourself to see what I mean. You will have to check and later uncheck "custom wikis". --  Riffsyphon  1024 03:52, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Gracias
Thanks for editing the Borvo the Hutt's starfighters page. I made it on a day when I was half conscious and deep in the grip of a cold so there were a few mistakes. So thanks for fixing it, man. --JuiceStain 17:34, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Re: Happy Caption
No need to apologize. I quite enjoy not being the only one editing my userpages :)  Gonk  ( Gonk! ) 13:49, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Yeah...About that. Who are you supposed to be, the Thought Police? CocaineWayne

Thanks, Riff :) Greyman ( Talk ) 03:45, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Lookalikes
Thanks for all the tips. When I started that category I knew there were tons but I can't seem to recall everyone. Iry Danta looks alot more like Joseph Estrada but maybe that's because I live here. lol --ToRsO bOy 23:42, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Re:
No problem, Riff. Kudos on getting the quote out of him in the first place ;) -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 20:42, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * He was more than happy to do something for us. :) --  Riffsyphon  1024 20:43, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

CocaineWayne
Please ban this lunatic. He's insulted administrators, and you should check out his talk page. He gives some sort of reasoning for his name there.  Chack Jadson  (Talk) 19:04, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah I brought up the issue of his name and it seems like someone else got to him before I did. Much better handled with the userpage template. --  Riffsyphon  1024 05:59, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

Mailing list
Hey, Riff. 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. Cheers, Greyman  http://images.wikia.com/central/images/9/9c/Jan.png ( Talk ) 15:57, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I have gotten signed up and am awaiting approval now. Thanks for the heads up. --  Riffsyphon  1024 06:41, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

Dumb image request...
I don't suppose you happen to have (or know the user who has) the full-size origonal pic of the humping AT-ATs? I'm tempted to use 'em in my sig on another forum. If you don't have the pic of just the AT-ATs, I can easily crop the ones outta the banner, no problem. I'd figure I'd ask, though, as a higher-res image would scale down alot better. Trak Nar 04:10, 2 April 2008 (UTC) 04:20, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
 * You'd have to check with Darthipedia on that probably since that image was added on that wikia. -- [ http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/9/95/AurebeshArialLinkR.png][ http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/e/e9/AurebeshArialLinkI.png][ http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/1/1c/AurebeshArialLinkF.png][ http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/1/1c/AurebeshArialLinkF.png][ http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/3/3e/BasicArialLinkBold1.png][ http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/c/cb/BasicArialLinkBold0.png][ http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/d/d6/BasicArialLinkBold2.png][ http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/8/89/BasicArialLinkBold4.png]

Just a Question
Hey, I was wondering what you meant by the comment "Sorry TheNewDarthMalevlent, but the Gonk comes first." Do you mind filling me in? I just got back from school and don't undertsand the comment. JamesKryack The Sith shall rise to power! |undefined 22:59, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Ah, nevermind, things just cleared up. Darn { USERNAME } template... TheNewDarthMalevlent  And so the name returns... |undefined 00:05, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Heh heh. --  Riffsyphon  1024 05:52, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Question about anonymous users
I just went to Wikipedia when I got a messsage. I don't have an account on Wikipedia, so I'm an anonymous user. I don't make edits on that site anyways. Anyways, I got a message from a user on Wikipedia who was warning me about vandalism and how I vandalized the article "Point source pollution." However, I have never vandalized in my life nor have I visited that article before I received the message. My IP address (if that's what it's called) is currently 71.134.254.107. The contribution page doesn't show the few contributions I have made on Wikipedia. So, I must ask if the IP address is shared by different people, not only one person. Therefore, someone else previously using 71.134.254.107 vandalized, while I didn't. If this is so, then I don't understand what is the point of blocking some anonymous users since different users would be using that IP address. Marco Lam ( Contact ) 04:32, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
 * That's just the thing. Some IPs are used by multiple people and a short block on one could affect others accessing the site with the same computer. Granted no one is supposed to hand out a permanent block on an IP because of this. --  Riffsyphon  1024 05:52, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks. Marco Lam  [[Image:Jedi_Order.svg|20px]]( Contact ) 07:17, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Yep, that sweet ol town. You're a Weird Al fan too I presume? --ToRsO bOy 15:19, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * How couldn't I be. :P --  Riffsyphon  1024 19:39, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

"Mike Cooper" article deleted, then marked as vanity, then redirected...
...after being perfectly noteworthy for two years. I'm out of it for a little while, and everybody gets...what's the opposite of delusions of grandeur? =p Coop 20:10, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Hey, I had to merge my article into Wookieepedia as well, but I tried to retain all the information. As for Imp's impetus, I can't explain it. --  Riffsyphon  1024 23:54, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Is it possible to change my username and user page title because I'd feel better if I did. Marco Lam ( Contact ) 06:12, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Wookieeproject Legacy Era
Hey Riff, thanks for joining WookieeProject Legacy Era. Since we've finally achieved getting 5 users, I'm going to let the project start off, and a main focus should be on the page by tomorrow. Though I'm pretty sure you know how this works, I strongly suggest reading the schedule I posted on there, as well as some of the tips on the project. Cheers. Darthchristian 15:00, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

Editing for a larger perspective...
I am Emperor Leonhart178 and i am an admin on the Star Spoof Wikia.

How would you like to become the ultimate master of the force? I can help you...

The Dark Side of the force is a pathway to many abilities... Parodies, Spoofs, and little children dressing up as Yoda for Holloween.

I was wondering if you would consider helping our small wikia.

We have LOTS of wanted pages and we need them filled so i am recruiting people for this purpose. If you cannot help, i understand.

New Main Focus
Hey, for our first Main Focus, we're going to work on Darth Maladi. See the forum for more details about the main focus. Darthchristian 02:50, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Hey Riff, do you have the Claws of the Dragon story arc, as well as the comics after, because I'm finding that the people on the project don't have it, as well as myself. We need for Darth Maladi, which you're well aware of that it is the main focus of the Legacy WookieeProject. Thanks. Darthchristian 16:05, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Why yes I do but I don't believe she shows up that much or is focus of in either COTD or afterward. I will still check it out though. --  Riffsyphon  1024 01:44, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I checked everything after COTD and there are no appearances. The last issue "Faceoff" doesn't have her in it either. --  Riffsyphon  1024 07:24, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Last appearance of Maladi is COTD, Part 4, Issue 17, page 1. Maladi and Nihl discuss who might be the heir to Krayt. --  Riffsyphon  1024 07:36, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Crap, I missed her one page appearance in Legacy 23. This is already described in the article and I cannot see anymore coming from this little scene. --  Riffsyphon  1024 07:39, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

What. The. Heck.
I- You- No- AAAAH! That sucks! JadenKorr13 07:16, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
 * What sucks? So I reverted your alteration of an user talk page when said vandalism isn't really profane or anything. Just leave it alone and let it be record. --  Riffsyphon  1024 07:18, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Insider request
Hey, Riff. In the Daine Jir article, Insider 82 appears in his source list without a specific article. Would you be able to shed some light on what article that may be? ;) Thanks. Toprawa and Ralltiir 23:36, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I believe it was the Set Creation section (exact name unknown) where they detail the Tantive IV. --  Riffsyphon  1024 10:06, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Big thanks
Thank you for making Wookieepedia, along with Whiteboy! It's given me a chance to interact with real people, and not just play games on the 'ternet. 67.182.122.244 06:21, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Glad I could be of service. :) --  Riffsyphon  1024 10:04, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Whiteboy said the same thing...  JadenKorr  13
 * There's nothing robotic about that. He just happened to say it similarly and if you really read them both, they're not the same. But why are you commenting on this to begin with? --  Riffsyphon  1024 06:21, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

cloak of deception
is this book good? thanks Izquierdista 06:41, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I would not know as I have not read the book. Sorry. --  Riffsyphon  1024 06:43, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Whoops...
Sorry. How do you do that...? Pwn3dtehImps 02:35, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Just don't use one of them anymore. I see you already cleared out your page. Please then contribute only under your first name. --  Riffsyphon  1024 05:56, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Dwuirsintabb
You made this edit some time ago, though the Holonet news article the character originated in makes no mention of a poll. Do you know where this info came from? -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 17:00, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
 * It came from that issue of HNN. The poll is located on the main page. http://www.holonetnews.com/50/ --  Riffsyphon  1024 14:11, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks :-) -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 16:14, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * No problem Ackie. --  Riffsyphon  1024 16:15, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Administrative autonomy
I'm not an admin, so maybe it's not place to say this, but you are not allowed to do this. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 11:21, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Fair enough Ackie. You are right to keep tabs on us and I have crossed the line. However to be fair to all sides, Imp should have gone through the process of bringing the article to TC before blowing it away first and creating this situation. Only there could we really see what the community thought of it. --  Riffsyphon  1024 08:03, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

Newcomer
Hi I am newcomer there and I want to do some questions. 1)What is that sandbox? 2)Is there some kind of ranks that the users can achieve? 3)Do you want to be my friend? 4)Is there anything else that I must know? Thanks for your timespartan-53 aka Darth odysseas 11:50, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 1) The sandbox, known here as the Jundland Wastes is a place for users to test their wiki skills before using templates and the like.
 * 2) Users do not go by ranks on Wookieepedia. Even status as an administrator does not make one user more important or better than another.
 * 3) Being friends is not the goal of this wiki, although users do collaborate on projects.
 * 4) You should find all the links you need on your talk page template. --  Riffsyphon  1024 06:35, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Query
I noticed that you created Alpha/Delta/Eta series way back when, and I was wondering what the source for the name of the series would be, the canonically established connection. Can you shed any light on this? Graestan ( Talk ) 23:36, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Hmm, that I created right as Episode III was being released. I can only say I created it because the three classes of fighters were so similar and all came from the same company for the same side of the same war. Granted its conjectural at best, speculation at worst, and I really can't say now if they are all related directly as a series. --  Riffsyphon  1024 18:32, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

A little help please
Hey, I was recently blocked by User:Darth Culator for allegedly falsifying images sources. Now, if I did so it was out of ignorance on my part, and if he thinks otherwise he has not answered my several pleas for an explanation. Now, I do not want to complain about him or anything; it could be that he has not been online or whatever, but I have also received no information after I posted on the Admin's board. So, I turn to you to persuade to respond or for you to just unblock me. I hope I am not asking to much. Your expedience would be greatly appreciated because I am anxious to add information from TFU. Thank you in advance, Purpilia, 71.200.142.253 00:05, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

Help please...
Hello, I am Kgrimes2. I have only contributed to Wookieepedia for a couple of months now, and I noticed you know HTML on your userpage. On my User:Kgrimes2 page, I have some userboxes that are, well, oversized. The problem occurs when I insert an image. Here is an example of one of my custom userboxes: Also... when I insert a custom userbox, it just messes up! This text is to the right of the userbox... could you type up some instructions?

Any help from you--and any other users looking at this--would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! &lt;~Kg®imes2~&gt; 05:45, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
 * First of all, there is no need for a thumbnail image in the infobox. I believe by removing the thumb, the image works now. Now all it needs is some right justification on the screen, but even I needed assistance with that. --  Riffsyphon  1024 15:41, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
