Formatting
Please list your sources in a separate section, by writing them under "==Sources==". Also, put everyone of your articles in a category. For example, if you make an article about a starfighter, write "" on the bottom. JimRaynor55 22:23, 28 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * Hi! I'm new to this system of adding stuff, so I'm trying to learn things. It's not always easy, but I'll try. --Sompeetalay 10:04, 29 Dec 2005 (UTC)

Dressing a Galaxy
Since you own this book, could you do some scan uploads, such as Neb Creip and other characters newly named in the book? Also, Wiki has a Cellheim Anujo pic, but there is some confusion. the OWS indicates Cellheim is Tundra's aide, does DaG indicate Celleim is a Senator in his or her own right? Please contact me on this! thxJustinGann 22:07, 29 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * Hi Justin, I'm sorry but I really don't like scanning 'Dressing a Galaxy'. The book says 'Senator Outfit' with Cellheim, so I'd say he / she is indeed a Senator or a Senatorial aide. Many characters are pictured very small in this book in an index at the end of it. I'm sorry about scanning the book. --Sompeetalay 10:03, 30 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * Hi Sompeetalay. I just cleaned up your talk page layout. If you put an asterisk (*) in front of a paragraph, it creates a bullet. You can create further indented bullets by using two or more asterisks. Cheers! - QuentinGeorgeThx :) I'm not familiar with all these controls over here. --Sompeetalay 15:36, 1 Jan 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the Dex's Diner patron info
Hi Sompeetalay, just wanted to say thanks a bunch for helping me track down the patrons of Dex's Diner. Cheers! --Azizlight 00:59, 3 Jan 2006 (UTC)

Name
LOL! I LOVE your name, friend. Reminds me when I tried to write down Greedo's speech :D MoffRebus 23:01, 3 Jan 2006 (UTC) You're welcome :p --Sompeetalay 23:47, 3 Jan 2006 (UTC)

CCG Entries:

I see your doing alot of the CCG card entries, a few things to keep in mind:

1) make the Sources a link, like this:

Qi Zhu
Please don't simply clear away all the text for pages you think are wrong. If you have a concern about an article, you can ask a question in the article's talk page. If you think an article doesn't belong in Wookieepedia, you can use the Votes for Deletion process. For crap articles like blatant fanon or vandalism, a Speedy Delete template can be used, and an administrator will delete the article ASAP. Only admins can actually delete pages. I'll put a note in Talk:Qi Zhu. Also, you can use Template:Canon and Template:Fanon. There are a lot more listed at Template messages. -LtNOWIS 20:54, 5 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the information. I tried to find the 'I object' picture, but I hadn't had a clue how to do it. Sorry about the mess --Sompeetalay 21:01, 5 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * That would be the sources template, Template:Sources, which can be created by typing . -- Riffsyphon1024 05:42, 6 Jan 2006 (UTC)

Madakor
What is the source of Madakor's 1st name? Please let me know at my talkpage.JustinGann 16:46, 14 Jan 2006 (UTC)

Fire-eyed pillbug
What is the source of the name of the fire-eyed pillbug of Dagobah in ROTS and can you provide a pic showing which critter it is?JustinGann 14:52, 22 April 2006 (UTC) Hi Justin, I must admit I seem to have totally forgotten about it :$ I must have gotten it from the SW Messageboards from Pablo Hidalgo or Leland Chee. Check the Dabobah scene and see what creature isn't accounted for :$--Sompeetalay 19:33, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Typho
Why did you move Gregar Typho back to Typho? I notice you've added a section in the BTS stating his name appears in Death on Naboo, so why the move? That book is canon - Kwenn 15:00, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I made a mistake and forgot to fix it! At first I thought it was fanon, because Typho often got a fanon name. It was only later that I saw the source. My mistake! --Sompeetalay 00:19, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

R2-A1
Is R2-A1 fanon? It didn't seem like nonsense to me, so I just put the fanon tag on rather than deleting it. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 22:35, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
 * There are only 2 Astromech Droids in the Tantive IV. I'm just wondering, where would this guy come from? Since there are no sources, it seems like nonsense to me. --Sompeetalay 22:37, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
 * And this page IDs them as R4-M9 and R2-Q2. On the other hand, googling for R2-A1 gets me hits on astromech.com, pictures which could be official costume tests or fans in costume, and a claim that the droid was in ROTJ serving on the DS2.  I'll delete it for now: it's been poorly sourced since January anyway. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 22:47, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Astromech.com is totally unreliable. It's as infamous as Red6 concering fanon. --Sompeetalay 23:38, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Userboxes
If you would like any userboxes made just see my talk page.Thanks! -- Scwhinky Communicate 17:04, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I'll think about it :) --Sompeetalay 17:06, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Insider 92
Hey, sorry I didn't get back to you before. Here's the rest of the stuff (mostly that was already known): That's about all the IU stuff. I didn't know about the Fernandin Scouting Expedition in Galaxy Guide 2 before. I'll have to expand that article now! -- Ozzel 00:51, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Unknown to the Rebels but later theorized, the temples were built by Sith followers of Naga Sadow 5,000 years before.
 * Vong destroyed the Great Temple.
 * Rebels used recon-towers because the mists and wildlife were hard for sensors. The towers had retractable stalks so that sentries could enter and exit at ground level.
 * Prennert was on recon-tower four. It was atop an unnamed monument north of the Massassi site. He had a view of the Great Temple, the Temple of the Blueleaf Cluster, and the Palace of the Woolamander.
 * Thank you about that information :) --Sompeetalay 06:48, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Corpsey
Just out of curiosity, but why do you want Corpsey to be deleted? I do not see any reason to have it deleted. --Jedimca0(Do or Do Not, There is No Try) 23:23, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
 * 1) Hi! Well, I don't see any reason why the page should be kept. The Ewok has no official name. We could rename it into 'Unnamed dead Ewok'. Then it'll be clear that he / she hasn't got an official name. So I added it to the delete list because I'm a SW nominalist. I name everything that has been named but I also don't name that which hasn't been named yet. Better to be unnamed than given a fake name. Most people will realise it's a fake name but sooner or later there will be a fan who doesn't. It doesn't need to be deleted, it needs to be renamed in my opinion. So I was a little harsh in my conclusion.

Besides, where does the info come from that the mourning Ewok is Romba? A lot of Ewoks look a like, so we must almost be certain about his identity. --Sompeetalay 00:32, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Debbie Lee Carrington played the mourning Ewok, and at Celebration IV it was indicated that Romba was that Ewok. I have a suspicion that whoever determined that (probably Chee) may actually have been mixed up, because I think there are two different Ewoks that look very similar: the Romba on the CCG card and the mourning Ewok.... but anyway, as far as what's in the Holocron is concerned, that Ewok is Romba. -- Ozzel 00:40, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Are you sure that Romba is the mourning Ewok? Has Leland confirmed this? Because he's the only one who can since it hasn't appeared in any of the books. On his blog, Leland stated he tended to stay with the pictures from the Action figures' cards --Sompeetalay. 08:04, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Regarding the renaming of the Corpsey article, I would direct any interested parties to the convenient conjecture tag located directly beneath the article's title. --School of Thrawn 101 08:08, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
 * I stand corrected about the Romba case ! --Sompeetalay 08:09, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Is "Corpsey" Romba's dad? I could swear when Romba is mourning he calls Corpsey "Daddy."  Or maybe it is an Ewokese word that just sounds similar but means something else?  Still, many SW alien words sound remarkably like their English equivalents.JustinGann 03:20, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Blog comments
 Interesting. I have some comments on this. 1. You should add the thrantas and thranta riders, both of which the EU canonized (and Wildlife of SW and AOTC evolved into aiwhas!). 2. The "tauntaun" concept art which became the Cracian thumper in WEG also became the rockhopper in Droids cartoons. 3. the Esoomian concept art also became TOTJ's Zexx species. 4. The Tocoyans and "Vodranites" are not only in the CCG, but also in Shadows of the Empire: Evolution. They are among the villains who attack Guri. 5. In addition to CCG, Makurth have appeared in the Darth Bane novel. 6. Bozzie Barada became "Bozzie Baranta" in the Episode I Racer game. 7. About the Ciasi of Tund and Sanhueli of Hueli IV--what is the source of this info? I know these characters are canon, but are their species and homeworlds fanon? I know this is on Wookieepedia, but nobody has been able to confirm a source, despite my requests.JustinGann 03:20, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, I must admit it has been awhile since I created that blog entry :) I totally agree with 1-2. I did include the Esoomian. I thought Zexx was an Esoomian. Well, comics aren't exactly my field of expertise :) I must admit I didn't really check any sources on those podracers since they're not in the movies, I care less about them. I'll see what I can find out. --Sompeetalay 08:11, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, I know for a fact Tocoyans and Vodranites appear in Evolution, since I found them there myself. I think Wikia even has the relevant pics I added from the comics.  The Zexx, though based on the same concept art as WEG's Esoomian, is a separate species.  The Zexx have a separate homeworld (Prazhi), are shorter than Esoomians (maximum 2.5 m for Zexx, Esoomians can reach 3+ meters), and have separate roleplaying stats.  In-universe, it is likely the Zexx are "near-Esoomians" or vice versa, though this has never been confirmed.JustinGann 20:02, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Thx :) I never thought of that. Is that from the TotJ Sourcebook? --Sompeetalay 22:30, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
 * The Zexx species name, homeworld, size, and stats ARE in TOTH sourcebook; the "near=Esoomian" idea is just speculation on my part.JustinGann 21:53, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Naboo Council
Another question for you: you say the current wikia picture of Hela Brandes is NOT her. So who is? Do you have a blog about the councilors with correct pics?JustinGann 21:53, 30 September 2007 (UTC) 1) in TPM concept art, one of Jabba's slave girls was shown, sort of ferret-looking, with a long tail "for modesty;" this species, while not yet name, was canonized by Wildlife of Star Wars, which showed individuals of this race such as a ringmaster and a senator you can see a pic of the Senator of this race here, standing next to the Twi'lek senator: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Image:Trnb.jpg 2) The lemur people designed (but cut) for ROTS were canonized as natives of Mygeeto in Complete Locations. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Mygeetan http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:Mygeetan
 * Sorry Justin. It seemed I made a mistake. It's her allright. I must have confused her with another unnamed person present in the Theed Throne Room. It sure wasn't my best day back in January :p --Sompeetalay 23:20, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Also, two other concept art made canon aliens:

Cal Alder
Hey, Sompeetalay. I'm looking for some confirmation on a bit of information found in the Cal Alder article that I saw you added quite a while back. I'm trying to source the entire article and a source for this sentence eludes me: "During the battle he operated in the defensive perimeter and helped to direct snowspeeder groups." I'm guessing the info comes from "Who's Who in Echo Base" from Insider 74, since that's the only Alder source I don't have. Would you be able to shed some light? Thanks. :) Toprawa and Ralltiir 08:27, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Hello. Yep, it does come from Insider 74. At first I thought the article was bad but later I discovered it had more new info than I had realised. In case of any doubt, please check Yodapedia for more sources. It's in Dutch but the sources are of course in English. Perhaps it might help someday. --Sompeetalay 10:10, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your help. Toprawa and Ralltiir 00:07, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Gherant
Hey again, Somp. Another question for you. I was looking through the Gherant article and a bit of information confuses me: "At the time of the Battle of Hoth, Gherant was a deck officer with the rank of commander, and his duties included controlling access to the Executor's computer core, a position for which he had been personally selected by the command ship's captain, Firmus Piett." The information about the computer core seems to comes from your Gherant blog, which states that his CCG card reads: "This Imperial Navy Commander served as the Deck Officer aboard the Executor during the last years of the New Order. Gherant was hand-picked by Captain Piett, and was responsible for preventing unauthorized access to the Super-class Star Destroyer's computer core."

However, this description does not match the CCG description here: http://decipher.com/starwars/cardlists/dagobah/dark/images/commandergherant.gif

Just wondering where you may have gotten this from so that I may source the article. Thanks. Toprawa and Ralltiir 23:39, 31 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi! Well this is all Decipher's fault. They added Gherant in their Dagobah set while Gherant was never seen in 'TESB'. He was seen in 'RotJ'. So I thought since the other officers of the Dagobah Expansion were set in 3 ABY, why Gherant shouldn't be. Regarding the computer core, I've checked it and I don't know where I got it. It's on Bob Vitas' site as well so I might have gotten it from there. Since there is just one source of Gherant, it cannot come from somewhere else, I guess. I'm going to change it op Yodapedia. I consider it a mistake. Thanks for clearing this up ! --Sompeetalay 23:58, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
