Semi-protection
Did you want it for your user page?  StarNeptune Talk to me! 17:55, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, please. Will I still have access to it? Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 18:11, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, you will.  StarNeptune Talk to me! 18:26, 17 April 2006 (UTC) +
 * Just checking. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 18:28, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Boba Fett Voice
What ho, Jack! I'm a newcomer, and haven't had time to make a page for him yet, but for the record, the actor who voiced Boba Fett in his animated appearances is Don Francks, not Franks: Don Francks' Site. Sorry for not including a summary, if that was the reason for the revert, but it's a valid and needed change. --Andrew, Aleal 16:48, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Oops, sorry. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 16:48, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

Sorry Jack Nebulax
I'm really sorry about calling you Nebulass and vandalizing your user page. I hope that we no longer have to be enemies. Thank you. --Kowakian1
 * To be honest, I'm surprised you're apologizing. I hope this isn't some wierd joke, because if you really are sorry, then I accept your apology. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 00:51, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

no joke dude.
No Joke. I'm starting over as a good wookieepedian. Now, I will help Wookieepedia's articles instead of vandalizing them. --kowakian1
 * Glad to hear it. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 00:54, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

Site problems (since you asked)
They had a power failure at their colocation facility. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 23:32, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Thank you for informing me of the power failure. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 00:03, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Which is stronger Slave 1 or republic gunship?
Hey Nebulax, I was wondering about what ship is stronger? Jango/Boba's Slave 1 or a Republic Gunship? Please tell me which one. --Kowakian 1 (ex vandal)
 * This really isn't the place for it (therefore I'm moving it to my main talk page, which still isn't the right place), but I supposed Slave I could beat a Republic LAAT/i gunship. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 10:59, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Template:Erasstar
Just thought I'd leave a note on your user page as to why I didn't want you to revert the Greivous page again. the Featuredstar template adds a features star to the top right of the title of a page. The Eras template adds era icons, also to the top right of the title of a page. All that Erasstar does is join these two together, by adding the era icons to the top right of a page, then adding the featured star before it. Sikon is also currently working on this template so that the star no longer displays on top of the era icons and, if we were using the two templates seperately, then any problems Sikon fixed wouldn't be implemented. &mdash;Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 23:57, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * That's not the problem. Whenever it's used, I can't see the era symbol. I only see the star. However, when they're separate, I can clearly see both. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 23:58, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * That could very well be because of the aforementioned problem with the featured star covering the era icons which, as I said, Sikon is trying to fix. It should be done soon hopefully. :) &mdash;Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 00:07, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Hopefully that's all it is. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 00:08, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

Heavy trooper/arc trooper

 * Actually, there is a source that they are the same. The Battlefront II site says it.
 * Yet there are clearly not the same. ARC trooper or not, they're heavy troopers. Something could be added to the heavy trooper article saying that they were ARC troopers, instead of redirecting it. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 23:42, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Okay.
 * Just because they're ARC troopers doesn't mean there can't be an article for them. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 01:51, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Bast Castle
I wasn't aware of a new template so I misunderstood what you'd done. It appeared that you'd just removed my link. I didn't notice the thing on the right side. It looked hostile to me so asking "what is your problem?" was justified. You are a very by the book guy Jack, and I can respect that, but you are also cold and mechanical towards everyone most of the time. I usually agree with you because someone else is being a jackass not because I like you, though don't read that as me saying I don't. I'm always going to be defensive of my edits. If I see you editing what I've done without explaining yourself I'm going to react. If that bothers you I'm sorry but that's how I am. It was my fault for not realizing you had fixed it, so I apologize for that. I mentioned it once before and I'm sure it just slipped your mind but the changes summary box can help avoid things like this. --DannyBoy7783 01:26, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
 * I guess my point in all of this is that it doesn't hurt to discuss changes if you aren't 100% sure about something. If it gets changed right now or a few hours from now it doesn't really matter. Wikipedia has a lot more discussion about changes on their talk pages it seems to me. People discuss facts more so than changes here at wookieepedia. Ya know, whatever, that's how we do it here. That's fine I guess. I'm just saying that it never hurts to discuss a change first. --DannyBoy7783 01:31, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
 * You are right about discussing things first, and I know I should have done that. I guess I was just thinking about how others might have had the same problem, which made me remove it. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 11:05, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

B'omarr monks
Hey Jack, I think you should add some more info on the B'omarr monk article and give an example of some of them. I think you might know more about them then I do. But I know there is a B'omarr monk named Grimpen and I have heard of a monk named Blleen. --Kowakian 1(ex vandal)
 * Kowakian, I know nothing about B'omarr monks. Please don't use my talk page for this kind of stuff. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 11:03, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks again
Thanks for helping out with the user page vandalism over the weekend. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 03:24, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
 * No problem. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 11:01, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

Want to be an administrator?
I have noticed that you have contributed much to Wookieepedia. Do you want me to nominate you as an administrator? I think that you would make a really good one. Please do consider being an administrator. You have been present for a long time since July 2005. There has also been a rise in vandalism and we need more administrators to counter this. Hope that you would reply to this post and tell me what you think.MyNz 22:56, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
 * I'd be honored, even to just be nominated. Thank you for the compliment, MyNz. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 22:58, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

Question about appearances
You're the most informed person I know around here, and we've had a few friendly runins in the past, so I'd like to ask you a question. Under the Appearances sections on articles, is there any certain order they must be put in? For example, alphabetical, videogame first/movie next/novel last, in order of continuity.... Crowe 12:56, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
 * In chronological order. Most articles already have it like that. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 13:02, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks very much. Crowe 13:32, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
 * No problem. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 14:07, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

Line Breaks
I just thought I'd try to show you how we can notice there's an extra line break at the top of articles...when there's the line break, try highlighting the very top of the article (highlight the articles title and go down into the text). If you do so, then you'll notice an extra "box" which shows there is in fact a line there, where there shouldn't be. &mdash;Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 23:41, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
 * I have done that, and my computer doesn't show it. That's why I kept re-adding the space. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 00:07, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Here is a screencap of the stormtrooper page with the line break at the top. Here is a screencap of the page without the line break. Hopefully you can see why I fixed it.


 * Look, I don't know if it's your browser or what. But when other people remove line breaks at the tops of pages, they do it for a reason. I'm a neat freak, too. I'm all for having stuff as organized as possible around here. But the appearance of the code should always take a backseat to the appearance of the page. Sometimes that means "cheating" stuff to make it work, like putting a quote right after a picture with no line in between. When someone makes an edit like that, "assume good faith." We're not just out to get you. If you disagree so much, bring it up on the talk page, and if anyone else agrees with you, then perhaps we'll have a valid issue. But as it is, you seem to be the only user who doesn't see these line breaks on pages. So please, when someone removes a line break, just try to ignore it and know that it's for the viewing pleasure of all other Wookieepedians. Thank you. -- Ozzel 19:50, 2 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Fine. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 19:59, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
 * When you say that the image and quote are too close together, do you mean on the actual page and not the code? -- Ozzel 20:04, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Both, really. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 20:05, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

Admin in the future?
I just noticed that you had been nominated to be a admin. Despite the fact that it did not work in your favor this time, I feel that you will make an excellent admin one day. Let me know next time you are up for a vote. I would gladly support. :-) AdmiralNick22 16:12, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, before I can be re-nominated, I have two promises to fulfill. But thanks. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 19:53, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

Infobox pipe location
It doesn't make a change, that's just the correct way to do it (yes, we've been doing it wrong for a long time). Look at these page sources on Wikipedia:, etc. Besides making more sense, it also makes the page source look neater. RMF 20:07, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, before we change it like that on every article, shouldn't we fix it on Template:Ground vehicle infobox and all the other ones? Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 20:08, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, I'll do that&mdash;I just happened to be working on the SPHA article at the moment and updated the infobox. By the way, I'd appreciate it if you asked before you reverted, in the future. RMF 20:11, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry, it's a habit I'm trying to fix. It won't happen again. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 20:12, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Alright, thanks. RMF 20:17, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
 * No problem. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 20:18, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Also, if you need any help changing the infoboxes, just let me know. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 20:18, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

Steps on your quest
Here are some suggestions to help you in your goal to be recognized more positively here on Wookieepedia: Just some thoughts for your consideration. jSarek 02:07, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit summaries are a great place to explain WHY you're doing something that may be controversial. For instance, you made a revert recently that was totally correct (on Adalric Cessius Brandl, where an anon made a change from a correct spelling of his name to an incorrect one); however, it might be helpful to the user who made the incorrect change to have a brief explanation as to why the change was made (e.g. "spelling not supported by Tales from the NR").  This way, the user knows why you made the change, and instead of assuming you don't know what you're talking about, will either desist, continue unabated (in which case he deserves a good modsmack), or bring up the issue constructively on the talk page (if the "incorrect" spelling actually gets used elsewhere in the canon, for instance).  It looks like, from your recent contributions, that you're doing better with this, but you should strive to summarize the majority of your edits.
 * 2) Video games may be the bane of continuity lovers like us, but they've got the C-canon stamp of approval as much as any other derivative work. We've got to learn to accept that, and bite the bullet and try to constructively work around continuity headaches like Empire at War.  It doesn't help to add in notes like "(which has gone against canon)" into articles like R-22 Spearhead; sure, it's gone against canon, but now it IS canon, too.
 * 3) When in doubt, talk it out. If you think a change you're considering making is likely to cause an uproar, suggest it on the talk page and then wait a bit (at least a day) to see if it's well received.
 * 4) Assume good faith. The majority of bad edits are from people thinking they're making a good contribution to the site; gently show them the error of their ways, and most will become better Wookieepedians for it.  Do it meanly, or even brusquely, and they're more likely to take offense and either flee or become prone to actual vandalism.
 * Thank you. I'll be sure to follow them. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 11:02, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Also: if a user has been warned by another editor not to post fanon or something like that, there's no need to add another warning unless they've started up again. I realize fanon spewers can be frustrating for everyone, but there's no real need for every user on the wiki to pile on to yell at every minor vandal. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 00:15, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Actually, that anon did start up again. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 00:51, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

WoTM
Yeah, im new to this, so I don't know how things work with nominating and stuff, so just lighten up on me. Steves 22:20, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, you know, during last month's nominations, I did say something, and I thought you saw that. So when I saw that you were again thinking that those who had good user pages were nominated for WotM, I said again that that's not how it's done. But you also did it a third time, so it seemed like you weren't even paying attention. That's why. And just to let you know, I did say "no offense intended" the second time, so I wasn't being mean. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 22:24, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah ok. Just to let u no, i never sed my user page was the best.  i sed i mproveded it, but i understand now.Steves 01:50, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
 * "Yea, i should win next time, cause i made my page better, and im still a sith lord. ". That's the exact quote. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 11:03, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Yea, i didn't say it was the bestSteves 14:40, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Still, you did say that, and it seems that you didn't see my response. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 20:13, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

Reversion notes
Hey Jack Nebulax. When reverting changes, please include a brief description in your edit summary of what/why you made the revert. It's helpful for scanning through changes. --SparqMan 22:49, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, I've been including them recently on most, but I'll make sure to have summaries in all of the reversions I make. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 22:52, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Promotion
Hey man, saw you got a promotion. Nice going! In other news, I was going to ask you about that clone-creating anon, but I see you already got to him. Dammit man, when do you sleep? ;)-- The Erl of the  talk  What I do 00:31, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh, that promotion... ;) Anyway, I'm going to sleep soon. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 00:33, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

Dooku
What exactly is the problem with the Dooku image? The quality is fine and it shows a little bit more than just his head. Many of the main images here show justa s much. I don't see the problem. Especially considering the previous image was edited and looked strange. You like the old one, fine, whatever you are allowed to. But what's wrong with the one we have now? --DannyBoy7783 05:33, 10 May 2006 (UTC) I didn't say you were a dick. This really isn't even that important. So let's just agree to disagree?--DannyBoy7783 20:28, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
 * It's blurry. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 10:51, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * No it isn't. If you are telling me This image is blurry then I think you need your vision checked. --DannyBoy7783 12:07, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh really? You're telling me that the previous main image was blurry. I think you should shut up and be kinder to others. I let you remove that photo, DannyBoy. Show some respect. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 19:07, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * First of all, if that isn't the pot calling the kettle black I don't know what is! I seem to recall you getting turned down for WOTM for being a dick to people....Secondly, you don't let me do anything Jack. You are just another user here. Remember that. No one supported the previous picture. If they did I wouldn't have changed it. besides, it was photoshopped. It doesn't belong here. Minor edits are understandable but those were not minor edits. You aren't any better or worse than any one else here. You make a lot of edits, yes. But that doesn't mean you run the show.--DannyBoy7783 01:10, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I know I don't run the show, DannyBoy, but telling me to get my vision checked isn't something you should tell me to do. And FYI, I got WotM in February. And I could just have easily replaced that crappy image now with the other one, because I supported the previous picture. However, I didn't because someone else agreed with you and I was outnumbered for that situation. You're being the dick here, DannyBoy. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 10:58, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm not being a dick. I'm asking you what is good about the earlier picture. I am telling you it has been digitally manipulated and yet you still want to keep it. I just don't understand why you like the picture. Is it that you aren't seeing the manipulation I'm talking about? I use photoshop a lot so I can tell but perhaps you can't? If you'd like I can take another image (becaus eI don't have the original Dooky picture) and do the same thing. That might help illustrate my point better. Also, if someone tells me a picture is blurry when it is clearly not, seeing as it is a screen capture from the movie itself, I am going to tell them to get their vision checked. It's not an opinion. Either it is blurry or it isn't. You can say it is all you want but the fact of the matter is that it is not blurry. If you really think it is show me where in the picture it isn't crisp enough, otherwise drop it. I've supported my side and have offered to take extra steps to show you why the image you like is not appropriate. All you have done is get uppity with me and tell me its blurry. I'm not trying to have a fight Jack I just don't think I'm wrong here. So please either support your side or let it go. --DannyBoy7783 14:31, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm supporting my side by saying that the current image is blurry and that the previous one wasn't. While it was obvious that it was cut, I did not see anything blurry to it. Now, since you said the previous one was blurry, I guess you should have your eyes checked since I said that this current one is blurry. DannyBoy, we have been friends for a while and I have no intention of ending that. But being rude by telling me to get my vision checked and calling me a dick is pushing the friendship to the limits. For once, listen to what I have to say and try to fix the image if possible instead of making such a big deal about it. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 19:25, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
 * "I seem to recall you getting turned down for WOTM for being a dick to people....". Anyway, let's just forget about it. If Redemption provides us with a good picture that everyone agrees with, we'll replace the current image with the new one. Agreed? Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 21:57, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Calling someone a dick and saying they are being one isn't exactly the same thing but it's not important. Yes, if a better pictures comes along I will embrace it. I'd prefer a torso/head shot showing his lightsaber (hilt or turned on). Let's keep our fingers crossed. --DannyBoy7783 23:08, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Still, full-body shots would be a lot better. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 23:28, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
 * No, closer shots are generally used for the main pictures here. --DannyBoy7783 00:54, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

Me again
I know you probably don't want to be bothered but I really like your user page and I would like to know how I could get mine like that. I like how you have the This user is on the dark side. Please help me. Thanks!
 * I'll be over at your talk page in a second. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 23:54, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

THANKS
Thanks a lot for the info. If I ever need anything I'll be sure to ask you. Thanks a LOT once again!Darth mathias 00:14, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
 * No problem. I'm here to help. If you need any more help with your user page, just ask. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 00:16, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Image
You said: "Is there even a difference between this current one and the previous one?"

- Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax referring to Image:NewRepublic.png

Yes, its a transparent PNG file of much higher quality. It looks much better and scales more accurately than the old GIF file. Too bad you need Firefox or Opera to see the transparency... Microsoft is just plain incompotent.--Sentry 11:47, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

A little problem with quotations
Dear Jack,

Lately I've noticed something different about the way quotes look on the Palpatine page. Maybe I'm high, but doesn't it look like there's way more space on the top of a quote, and none on the bottom? It didn't used to look that way, but it's done so in recent weeks. Yesterday I tried to fix this by adding an extra bit of space below the quotes, and I liked the result, but it seems you didn't feel the same way I did about it.

The world won't end over this problem, I concede, but to me it don't work. I don't want to let it stay that way, 'cause to me, with no offense intended to whoever invented it, it's a damned eyesore, I just... notice it. And I get the sense that you and I are the only ones who really care about it. So perhaps we can do what we do best: work out a solution. After all, there may - or may not - be a format rule, but surely how the page looks is a consideration, too, right?

Please let me know what's doin'. :) Erik Pflueger 00:26, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

P.S. Congratulations on your promotion... in whatever fleet you're serving... ;)
 * That would be the Imperial Navy... Anyway, it appears that numerous others now see extra spaces above quotes. I, however, don't for some reason. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 00:51, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
