Source Templates

 * I actually already noticed your comments and changed my vote. You'll notice my comment that the specific article that sparked this off didn't really seem to fit those at the time (really still kinda doesn't) but that I'm willing to call it a fluke. The main goal was to kinda bring attention to it. I don't really think some of those get used, but it could just be our general efficiency in wiping out fanon before they are required. At any rate, thanks for taking the time to go through and list all of those. Wildyoda 00:59, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, there are a lot that don't get used, but what do you expect on a wiki this size? :P 03:42, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

Culator
I have tried to ask darth culator about why he blocked me last month. Could you please tell him to check his talk pare and answer my questions? Thanks, Quinlanfan 23:23, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I let him know on IRC. He already told you anyways. 01:52, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

thx for the tip!!! :{

Format

 * A little late, but I think it's a good idea. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 04:05, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * For some reason, the last few forum pages didn't show up in the box, so they weren't moved to the new namespace. This, in my mind, is not a good thing. I'm not exactly sure how to fix it, but I know that a number of them aren't appearing. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 04:10, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Fixed it. All I had to do was turn the table count factor up. It was on 15, but it's now set on 50. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 04:13, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

New Sith Wars Timeline

 * Can you have a go at fixing the easy-timeline at the New Sith Wars page? The text timeline of the battles on the page itself is now accurate, but danged if I can get the coloured timeline down the bottom to match up to it. QuentinGeorge 09:24, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I added a bunch of the other battles, and I think I fixed what you were talking about. Let me know. 16:54, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

New Dialogue templates

 * Is it possible to get some Quotetrans equivalents for the Template:Dialogue? Thanks --Eyrezer 10:42, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure the best way to do this, without making a bunch of different templates for translating the first speaker only, the second speaker, both speakers, or having more than two speakers. So right now, I just have it translate both speakers. Here you go - Template:Dialoguetrans 16:56, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks, thats what I had in mind. All those variations had not occured to me! --Eyrezer 04:30, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

WookieeVacation + Inquisitor

 * Xwing, I need to take a vacation from now until March 2. I'll still be on every now and then, but some very pressing real life matters need attending to. Oh, and I'll still be at the Mofference. Anyway, would you mind taking up my Inquisitor's hat in my absence?

Since this is the first time this has happened, the way I had intended for an Inquisitor on vacation, their substitute would vote on anything new that the original person hadn't already voted on. Also, I'd give you permission to strike my votes that you think are inaccurate or wrong. You can't change stuff that's already gone through (like already stricken objections), but other than that, you'd be fully empowered. Just don't change all my votes. :-P Let me know if you can do it, otherwise I'll find someone else. Thanks. Atarumaster88  ( Audience Chamber ) 04:51, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I should be able to fill in, unless some real-life issues of my own pop up...like the speech in a week and exam Monday :( I'll let you know if I have any trouble. 16:11, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Consider it done. You now have POWAH!! until March 2. Make sure Ataru makes it to FA! Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 18:56, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

Help
Hey Xwing, I need some help with templates, could you make a few infobox templates for me on the KOTOR Wikia? I'm the founder of it, and am not so good with infoboxes. The main ones I need are a Jedi character infobox, a Sith character infobox, a Republic character infobox, and a Czerka character infobox. Get back to me when you can.
 * I don't have the time right now, but can't you just copy and paste what we have here? Of course, you'll have to copy and paste the source templates that generate them, assuming you use the source code. If you can't figure it out, I might get around to it later. 04:18, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Okay then.

Rogue Shadow
I had no idea, the link was red since yesterday, I thought there wasn't an article for the Rogue Shadow. You can delete it and relink if you want. Dench 23:54, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I think you meant to post this on User talk:Cull Tremayne. I had nothing to do with Rogue Shadow. He was the one that moved it. 00:17, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Dang, my bad. Wasn't trying to be insulting. I better go apologize. Cull Tremayne 00:56, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Vandal
Could you please block User:Darth_Morder for good. Joker1138 ( Mandalore )
 * Yes, if he does anything else, he'll be blocked. Please report this to Vandalism in progress next time. 17:58, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
 * He just wiped my page what more do you want. Joker1138
 * It looks like an anon wiped your page. How do you know they're the same? 18:12, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Chat
Xwing, do you have idea why I have been banned from the IRC chat?--Herbsewell 23:38, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * My only guess is that you were annoying other people. Sorry. 15:23, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * So you are not informed on why or when it happened?--Herbsewell 21:12, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * This is what I know: --- #wookieepedia Banlist: Fri Feb 16 16:09:31 Herbsewell!*@* Darth_Culator!i=TheKip@ip68-110-145-225.hr.hr.cox.net 22:31, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Well could you possibly, please ask Darth Culator why I was banned by him?--Herbsewell 22:34, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * You could ask him yourself. Here's a link to his talk page. --Imp 22:37, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I was kind of hoping for Xwing to ask him on the chat but this works too.--Herbsewell 22:41, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Honestly, I don't want to get involved in this. The same thing happened with Quinlanfan awhile back. 22:46, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I understand. Hopefully we can get past this without people arguing and taking sides over something as infantile as an IRC ban.--Herbsewell 22:47, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Bot Mayday!
Mayday! Mayday! Bot's aren't logging in anymore!!! Please get back to me ASAP.-- 01:27, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Correction. I fixed it. Change the 5 back to a 4.--Calo Nord 01:30, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Signature Help
Hello Xwing, I've noticed that your signature appears as a template when the page is being edited instead of having a long line of code like mine. Would you please be able to tell me how to change this? Thank you, - N ighthawk L eader    06:03, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * You need two signature pages in order to do this. It's not always recommended...but I don't care if you do it. See User:Xwing328/sig and User:Xwing328/sig1. The first one is the actual signature code, like you have now. The second one is basically a template of the first, which is the code you see when I sign my signature. This is the page you subst in your preferences: . Did that make sense?  15:35, 22 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes it was a big help. Thanks! - 08:57, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

SOTE
You are wrong. Because of the stupid rules on wookieepedia, we can't talk about figures or fannon! Quinlanfan 17:47, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * You should know there are two other Wikis, one for fanon and the other for action figures and other merchandise.-- Lord Oblivion Sith holocron[[Image:Oldsith.png|20px]] 17:52, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I couldn't have put it much better myself. 17:55, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Well, I tried to get on the fannon wiki but I could not acsess it. Quinlanfan 18:25, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Merchandise wiki
I should be the founder of this wiki. I came up with Idea. I started the whole discussion on it. Quinlanfan 18:27, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * And you could have been the founder if you had proposed the idea to Wikia. You can still be a part of the community, there is nothing preventing that. If you can't access Star Wars Fanon, you might be blocked. But trying to start a whole new wiki just because you can't use that one isn't the best of ideas. 18:29, 22 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Can I at least be a beuracrat? It started with my discussion. I have over 800 star wars star wars figures. Quinlanfan 18:32, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * No. The Origins of SWMW: This was the first place anything about merchandise was brought up - Forum:Vote of figures. There is no mention of an alternate wiki yet. That proceded to become Forum:CT Archive/Action figures, in which the idea of a Star Wars Merchandise Wiki began; however, you did not vote or comment about the alternate wiki whatsoever. This proceded yet again into Forum:CT Archive/Action figures - Revised, where you did not place a single vote or comment. Furthermore, as you said on Forum:Star Wars Merchandise Wiki requested, "I voted against it, but if it does go through I will help." 18:47, 22 February 2007 (UTC)


 * You are wrong! I started the Action figure vote in senate hall! And before that I was in a discussion with another user and someone told me to change the dicussion to senate hall. So I did. I started that discussion! Quinlanfan 18:54, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Quinlanfan began this in the general discussion forum. I've brought it here for those interested in discussing the topic. — SparqMan Talk 17:51, 11 January 2007 (UTC) Quinlanfan 18:58, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * In case you didn't notice, I linked to that forum in my previous comment. I'm well aware of where this began. "This was the first place anything about merchandise was brought up - Forum:Vote of figures." 19:00, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Except you never suggested a Star Wars Merchandise Wiki. You only suggested to put Action Figure info in Wookieepedia. 19:01, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * WEll can I at least be an admin since I started the discussion. I listed on the Merch. wiki that I wanted to help.Quinlanfan 19:02, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Possibly, but with this recent argument, who knows. We have to be able to trust you with the powers that are given, and you have to prove yourself first to gain our trust. 19:04, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

I am sorry, Some personal things at home were going on while this discussion was going on. I over reacted. What can I do to prove my self worthy? Quinlanfan 19:07, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I forgot to mention that I am an admin at KOTOR wiki. Please fell free to talk to Brian40 about me. Quinlanfan 19:09, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * The same things that Wookieepedia takes into account. Show responsibility, kindness to users, etc. Of course, the "member for 6 months" rule doesn't apply, since this just started. Also, as we don't have a TON of users yet, our need for admins is lower than that of Wookieepedia. 19:12, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * So? If I show kindness to others on the Merch. Wiki I can become an admin? How long are we talking about? Quinlanfan 19:14, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * It's not just about kindness, but if we feel you have to attributes of an admin, then yes. And there's no time period set in stone. It's just if and when we feel you are ready. In the meantime, continue to contribute as a normal user, as pretty much everything we need done is not something an admin has to do. 19:17, 22 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Okay, groovy! My user name on there is Sir Figurelot. How do you like it?Quinlanfan 19:19, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

NEC images
I made a note of the three remaining images needed to fill out this gallery. I'll try to get them scanned within the next week. I'll also try and make sure all the images from the gallery are used in some article so they don't get deleted for being gallery-only images. - JMAS 13:46, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much. Of course, the gallery itself is likely to be deleted as it's straight from the book, but those pictures are so good. I don't want to see them all go to waste. 00:59, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, I got a good chunk of the unused one placed in articles. But most of the ones if individual characters, especially major or semi-major characters, just aren't good enough quality to go in the articles, so they'll likely get blasted. - JMAS 01:05, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Alright...thanks again 01:08, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

4 novel
Hi ! I have a problem on episode 4 novel at appearances, the language section have 4 languages and i think its enough for its own section but Kwenn constantly erase the language section and put the languages at miscellenea section, please solve this issue !Darth Nospher 18:56, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Please answer me to my question !Darth Nospher 21:51, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
 * In case you somehow missed the note at the top of my page, I'm extremely busy this week. It was decided in a thread not to have "Languages" as it's own main heading under "Appearances". So if you want, put  as a subsection of  .  21:55, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Ok, thanks for your answer !Darth Nospher 22:29, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Misc
You support Mr Bush, you're from Texas and you're Wookieepedian of the Month? It's a strange, strange world... Anyway congratulations for being awarded. ;-) Klow 21:08, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Haha, Klow. Anyway, congratulations Xwing!  I was gone for quite a while, but had I been there, I would've definately supported you 100%...without changing my vote. :P ;) &mdash;Mir  len  04:42, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Bot
I have a request for your bot when you've got the time. Could you run it to change "|imageBG=white" to "|imageBG=ffffff" as the white no longer works on the new templates. Thanks. --Eyrezer 11:16, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Maybe something's changed since then, but I don't notice any difference. Correct me if I'm wrong. 23:56, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Have a look here to see what I mean. It doesn't matter if the image goes right to the edge of the infobox, but when it doesn't you can see that the color is not white. --Eyrezer 05:26, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Ah, OK. Jaymach actually tried to do that earlier today, but we have a bot problem. For some reason, we're not able to access the Special:Allpages list, so the bot doesn't run automatically through all pages. If we get it worked out, we'll take care of this. 05:31, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
 * No problem. --Eyrezer 01:52, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Great bot! This is the first time I've seen one around the site (I'm still fairly new), yours is awesome! Mrobviousjosh 03:39, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Hey! I'm glad you like it. It's just running a maintenance script I wrote right now, so some people actually get annoyed when it goes around capitalizing the first letters of templates they forgot, etc. but another user asked me earlier to run it again. Belated welcome to Wookieepedia, since I've never talked to you before! —Xwing328 (Talk) 03:43, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Please contact me at chris@iscifi.tv if you are interested or know of someone else that would be.

Christine C.R.S. Webmaster & Research I-SCI-FI
 * Hello Christine. Xwing328 is currently on vacation, so he will probably not see your message in the next few days. You probably want to notify Steven Greenwood and Chad Barbry, the founders of Wookieepedia, about this. -- http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/e/e5/ATATatarismall.png 16:18, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

IRC
Do you think you could help me and coming on to the SWMerchandise IRC for a sec. I need you're help. I'm not gonna be on much longer though. Thanks! supergeeky1 The Cantina 01:52, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Looks like you were gone by the time I got this. Sorry. —Xwing328 (Talk) 02:44, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Hey
Hey it's me troyb,I just want to know if I should Remove image Haakohologram.JPG from the Deletion page. Troyb 16:33, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Do you mean remove from the gallery-only images page? If so, no, because it is still only used in a gallery and on your user page, neither of which are fair use, unless it is used in an actual article also. 15:59, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Guestbook

 * Culator says we gotta kill 'em or he will. He's probably right. Thought I'd run that past you, give you a heads up. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Audience Chamber ) 17:14, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I saw. Thanks for the warning. 17:32, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Help
Hello Xwing! I have a question. Is Darth Maul died or is he alive?--Heiliger Klingone 17:46, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Since Xwing might be too busy to answer you, I will. He is dead. He was cut in half, and fell down an amaranthine aperture. Any other resurrection of him is non-canon or has a canon, logical explanation.--Herbsewell 10:04, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Thx Herbsewell. lmao. Klingone - Maul has actually died several times. Apparently, several reincarnations of him appeared. But yes, Darth Maul is dead. If you haven't already, you can read about him at his article: Darth Maul. 14:18, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Okay, Thank you! :)--Heiliger Klingone 11:33, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

I understand, I was just trying to help.... sorry. Derek Yoda&#39;s friend 02:09, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Re: Good Day
You're a funny man. Thank you for the welcome. Hey how do you create a signature? Can you add icons or hyperlinks?

Thanks
Thanks for fixing Category: Battles of the Yuuzhan Vong War. Oh, and of course, thank your bot for me ;) Chack Jadson 19:08, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Whistler says "Your welcome!" ;) 21:04, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Your shirt concept
As much as we are told to not sell anything or even stray into copyright problems, is your idea that you made in Freehand still okay to put on something for existing members to simply advertise or create awareness? --  Riffsyphon  1024 21:29, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I responded on my talk page. --  Riffsyphon  1024 04:58, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

Company stubs
Stop using   for articles under Category:Real_world_companies since it is for in-universe articles only. Company_stubs is a sub-category of in-universe companies. A template should be made though for real-world company stubs. Localdara-1 16:52, 21 April 2007 (UTC) OK Thank You Localdara-1 19:50, 21 April 2007 (UTC) I am going to revert my changes now with the correction.Localdara-1 19:54, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah sure. Next time just ask nicely. And you can create that template yourself if you want. In fact, it can actually be the same template if you know how to use if statements. 17:02, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

Pamphlets and banners
Thank you, I will do my best. Also, as an Inq, could you choose the FA article you think is the best, as it is difficult for me to discern a good article from a bad one, unless it the article reeks. Thank you. - Solus (Bird of Prey)  20:09, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
 * That's what I was thinking, too. Especially since using a whole article would mean very tiny print. I'll go through and pick a couple and give you the list to approve. - Solus (Bird of Prey)  20:26, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
 * That one was one of the first on my list. :) - Solus (Bird of Prey)  20:29, 22 April 2007 (UTC)EDIT: What's your favorite character article? I can't choose. - Solus  (Bird of Prey)  20:30, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Okay, Thank you. I have a list of some of the articles we could do a mini-thing of, but we will have to shave it down to probably six to make it fit. As you are the expert, I'll leave it to you.


 * Speceis
 * Selkath
 * Place
 * Ossus
 * Battle
 * Battle of Grassy Plains
 * Character
 * Gaeriel Captison and/or Halagad Ventor
 * Vehicle
 * Ebon Hawk and/or Record Time
 * Random 'Cookie' article
 * Jedi Apparel and/or Padmé Amidala's wardrobe
 * Suck-up article
 * Abel G. Peña, Celebration III, Celebration IV, and/or Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (video game)

Starting a Concensus track is fine with me, as I can go ahead and design the outside. I just don't know how fast you want this done, and CTs take time. I'm using Photoshop, by the way, and not long ago I finally learned how to take screenshots on a Mac. To quote the Hiromi, YAAYYY!!- Solus (Bird of Prey)  20:45, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Okay, sure. Thank you. - Solus (Bird of Prey)  20:53, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
 * If I may, I'd like to suggest Hiromi as the species article. Also, the TFU article isn't all that great. -- Imp http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/e/e5/ATATatarismall.png 21:04, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Thank you, and I'm sorry for the delay in replying. Imp just proved my point in how terrible I am at picking out good articles.- Solus (Bird of Prey)  21:08, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Oh, maybe I should check it out. - Solus (Bird of Prey)  21:16, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I was unable to find a list anywhere, and as you are so much involved with it, could you give me a list of the events Wookieepedia will be doing/hosting? I thought a list of them and a little blurb would go well on the pamphlet.- Solus (Bird of Prey)  17:15, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I have a screenshot of the rough draft of the front panels of the pamphlet here. Critique away.- Solus (Bird of Prey)  18:21, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
