Suggestions

 * I think that we can move the TIE/rc Fighter/Temp page to its main page. its been languishing for far too long.


 * Would it be a good idea to start an article with a list of spoiled brats in the Star Wars galaxy? Several characters would be categorized as brats.

Updates as of 22 December 2005
I apologize for not being present from the 17th to the 21st of December. I was away because I was having a short holiday at Akaroa which is up north and near Christchurch. So that meant I was not able to work on improving the Galactic Civil War article. Doing that article is really difficult? Can someone please help? I suggest to everyone who has The Essential Chronology and the New Essential Chronology that they work on the article.

Upload
I don't know how to upload images. Can someone please show me? MyNz 19:03, 20 Jan 2006


 * I had the same problem. Click upload file to the left, and browse the image of your choosing. Click upload. Bly1993 14:37, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

Is it possible to cut a picture from an image and make it into another image? For example, the image of the Chaf Envoy is actually part of the image used on the Outbound Flight and the Battle of the Redoubt pages? MyNz 20:16, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

Battleboxes
To put the cross next to fallen commanders in battleboxes, put & dagger ; (but as one word). I read the Battle of Yinchorr page you made and saw you put +s. Bly1993 14:39, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

Pictures

 * Your pictures are uploaded. --Razzy1319 08:46, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

New infoboxes
Hi, I noticed that you've been updating some of the characters with the new infoboxes&mdash;good work and thanks for the help. However, I noticed in your edit on Jaina Solo that you put "None" for date of death. While technically true, what we have been doing is leaving unknown fields blank, which the new templates simply ignore. Sorry if I didn't mention that on the project page&mdash;I know it's a little sparse on instructions, which I plan to remedy tomorrow (it's really getting late here and I have to get up at 6:30). Thanks. RMF 05:55, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

Improvement Drive
With Mallatobuck a lock for this Sunday, I've got a good chance of getting my ID nomination through the following week if I can keep it alive that long, and I'm desperate to do so. I thus propose a trade: a vote from you for the List of companies in exchange for a vote from me for the GFFA. Interested? CooperTFN 07:29, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Agreed. MyNz 07:31, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Rock. CooperTFN 07:32, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Welcome message
In the template that you used to welcome me, the link to the Project talk:Community Portal should probably be changed to Forum:Senate Hall (because you subst:'ed it, I'm not sure exactly what that template was). ABCD✉ 05:40, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Me too. I am just doing my job. MyNz 05:42, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

"Crumb" vandal
Thanks for helping with the "Crumb" vandal. I have semiprotected your user page until he goes away: let me know on my talk page if you have problems. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 22:41, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

sorry MyNz
I'm really sorry for all of the trouble I have caused on Wookieepedia like using sock puppets of Crumb. I hope we no longer need to be enemies. -- Kowakian1

We'll forgive you and give you another chance if you promise to contribute appropriately. Please read our Code of Conduct. MyNz 2:05, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

I have read the code of conduct and I have become a good wookieepedian who will get vandals busted and repair vandalized stuff. I promise. Do you think I could guard your user page and Jack's so it will not get vandalized, please discuss this with the other admins. Thank you, sir. --Kowakian 1

Eras
See here before adding era symbols.  StarNeptune Talk to me! 01:43, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

Era symbols in articles
I've noticed that you have been adding those new era symbols to articles. While I agree that it's a good idea, there is actually some debate over this, and I would appreciate it if you would hold off on updating them until the CT discussion regarding this is brought to a close. Thanks :) RMF 01:50, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

I agree and thankyou very much for warning me. MyNz 01:53, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

Do you wish for me to give you the correct code for that, or, do you want to keep it like that? http://uncyclopedia.org/images/1/15/Darth_Cow-Small.PNG''' --Darth Cow-- Talk undefined

Black Fleet Crisis
Just because you seem to be working on the Black Fleet Crisis page just now...you may be interested in this, this, this, this, and finally this. They're images from The Official Star Wars Fact Files (though I should warn you each file is about 10MB, as they're high quality scans), and so might help a little with the page...I'm not sure how much they can help...but at least it's something. :) &mdash;Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 05:02, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

Templates
I don't think I can help you; I'm so bad at templates that I'd probably make them worse. Rmfitzgerald50 is probably the person to ask, I think he's on now. Kuralyov 04:44, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Infoboxes
Hi. I fixed species, but I'm not really sure that we need Diversity Alliance character infobox. I think that the general character infobox template might be a better bet for smaller affiliations such as the Diversity Alliance. RMF 04:46, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Dunedin
You live in Dunedin!! Awesome, so do I. Nice to see another Wookieepedian in this little city. Good work on the Empire Reborn articles, I've been expanding the main article. I see you have a long list of books borrowed from the library. That's where I got into Star Wars. Sadly their collection of the most recent novels is way behind. I had to start buying my own --Eyrezer 03:20, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

I'm a Malaysian national and I go to school in Dunedin. You're from university and you are from New Zealand is that right? I'll try to help you with the Empire Reborn article though I don't always have the time. I also have school, chores, my part-time job, other hobbies and other stuff to do but I'll try to help Wookieepedia. MyNz 06:53, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I'm a student at Otago, but also a local of Dunedin. Went to Kavanagh College. Hopefully the Empire Reborn article won't need to much work but corrections are always welcome—it's a wiki, right! --Eyrezer 04:14, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

I have nominated the Empire Reborn as a featured article if you want to vote for it. --Eyrezer 12:32, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Shadowscourge
Hi, this is Sato Stars, I've spoken to the lead of Shadowscourge. This is our link. If there is anyone you wnat to contact from Shadowscourge, it should be Darth Elway, or myself, Darth Hexus. I must also appologize, in case I wasn't supposed to wirte anything on this page, I'm uncertain how I can communicate properly yet, so once again, my apologies. Hope to see you come aboard Shadowscourge. May the Force be with you... Sato Stars 19:29, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Thankyou for the invitation. Would it be a good idea if our Administrators meet with Darth Elway and Darth Hexus to discuss talks about forming an alliance against SuperShadow. MyNz 03:50, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

My friends over at Shadowscourge would like to meet you, but the one you should talk to personally should be Darth Elway, he's runnin the show. Sato Stars 06:42, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

I have a problem. I can't find my way around Shadowscourge. Can you please help me find my way around the site and how I could contact Darth Elway?MyNz, 08:41, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Ossus Project
Hey I just wanted to comment on the awesome job you did on that article, turning my one paragraph into 5 with seperate sections. This is the kind of writing every article needs. Lonnyd 09:55, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

Re In The Presence of Mine Enemies
Hello, I hope this is the right place for this message. As you could see, I started on writing about the viewpoint characters, but it would take some time, I have quite a lot of other things to do. I am especially interested in this book because my father was born in Berlin. His family escaped when he was four years old, in 1933 - soon after Hitler came to power, so he has only a child's memories of this time. Still, I feel that I (or at least, some kind o analogue of myself) could have been one of these people. I was a year ago in Malaysia, by the way, in a delegation of Israeli peace activists which attended a conference on the Palestinian issue in Putrajaya. we got special visas as being invited by the government (normally, you can't enter malaysia with an Israeli passport). I liked Kuala Lumpur and Penang very much, and I hope I will get more chances to see Malaysia.Yours,Adam Keller.

Wookieepedian
Hey MyNz. You might like to vote for Wookieepedian of the Month. It's currently tied at 10 votes each for two guys. Go break the deadlock when you have time! --Eyrezer 01:16, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Nice work on the Silentium-Abominor War. --Eyrezer 01:49, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

It's all good
I hold no hard feelings about that whole situation. Star Wars above all else is my motto, it keeps things in place. But yea, hope to see ya at Scourge. Sato Stars 03:52, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

Good articles
You might like to have a look at this new category, vote for some of the articles, and nominate others. --Eyrezer 10:13, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

My User page
Thanks for correcting my page. I'm very embarrised, not too much, being I do mess up a lot on edits sometimes, according to everyone who reads my stuff. thanks though. And I'm the one who has started the Xob, Malta, Gardulla's Palace, Gamorrean guard articles, and, heaven help me, added tons of stuff to Jabba the Hutt.Thanks again, I just noticed you edited it....in a good way. --Jabbathehuttgartogg

Thanks - Jabba page

 * Thanks very much. I don't know if my work is done on that blubber belly yet. I have a heap of Jabba comics, books, ect. by my computer, so that helped.I don't think it matches up to Palpatine 's King-sized article. I'm running out of sources though. Would I hold the title of being Wookiepedia's biggest Jabba buff? What was it like before I ever loged in? --Jabbathehuttgartogg [[Image:Desilijic Clan (Jabba’s Tattoo) .jpg|30px]] [[Image:Desilijic Clan (Jabba’s Tattoo) .jpg|30px]] 03:04, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Infobox ulyness
At Galactic Empire you said my version was ugly. Do you also think New Republic is ugly? The infoboxes of these two articles look inconsistent to me, and that is what I was trying to resolve. The former has a white image background that is different from the name's and area around it. The later has a transparent image with exactly the same background as the name and area around it. Do you see another way to resolve this? Perhaps transparent images should not be used? IMO they look better, and that is the look I was trying for at the Empire. What is wrong with 'white' ? Confederate Remnant has a large white image and looks fine IMO. It seems that you are only against having the name text on a white background. I still don't understand why. In the case of the Empire, should the image should just be resized? It is too low-res for "|300px", but it could be edited to extend the white area around it. Is this what you would prefer? What *I* would do to avoid your dislike of a white text background is to put the name text in a seperate row with no top border, and set its background to. But of course my forte is template code, not image editing (and I especially hate these low res .jpgs)
 * Changing the background color of the infobox to 'white' is not a good solution to the problem. If you wish to make the two infoboxes more consistent in appearance, you can create a transparent PNG version of the Imperial emblem.– 09:23, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Editing the images to have a larger frame does not fix the problem because those images are used for more than just infoboxes. I will probably be updating most of the logos to transparent PNG files soon, but first I have to start a forum thread to get community approval. If and when I get approval, I will change the way that the infobox colors are formatted. When I redesigned the Battle and War series of infoboxes, I purposely changed the layout so that the lighter 'subheading' color became the matting color for the image rather than the darker 'heading' color. I can just carry that design through to the others so that there is enough contrast for the logos to display properly. THAT should solve all our problems.– 21:21, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

I was not trying to be rude either.
However, I thought I saw factual errors that needed corrected. I did not want to "go on and on", but I want to state that I was not convinced. One problem I have mentally is communication. Looks like I have some form of Asperger's Syndrome. I am just finding that out. Please attempt to bear with me.

As for deleting content from my talk page, I did not see what was there relevant after I had reviewed it. As you can see, User:Darth Oblivion and I have been discussing that. Will (talk -- contribs) 06:40, 23 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Its allright, I forgive you and I too have to admit I also have some Asperger's Syndrome and a twin brother with relatively mild autism. I understand what you feel about errors and inaccuracies in Star Wars though I realise now that it is not worth arguing about. MyNz 08:12, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Incidentally, the main reason I rarely make major changes to non-talk pages in this wiki is my communication problems. I am more comfortable suggesting the changes and letting others work those changes in. If I did it, the effect would probably be clumsy at best. Will (talk -- contribs) 22:35, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks
I just noticed in my userpage history that you reset it after it was vandalized. I just wanted to say thank you. - Angel Blue 451 23:19, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

IG's
I would like to thank you for your help with the droid revolution pages(all of which I created and was first to contibute to [with the exception of IG-88's Droid Army, which I merely set up]). I would like to invite you to read my extensive(yet well written and very fascinating, as many users would attest) Bio, or "fanfic", it is of course made up, and up until the last few sections, I am Count Dooku 13. It also includes several users in it, and they have their oxn bios that are linked to mine, and for the most part each others. You don't have to do this of course(not that I can blame you), but just when you have time, and perhaps read the others' bios. Remember to sign in on the sign in under the designated section, if you have any questions or comments on my user page or anything else, just put them on my talk page(Sentience Core). Once again thank you, and I apologize for the lenth of this message. Also, I apologize if I sound like I am treating you like a new user or something like that, it is just a habit of mine. Happy editing, as has been said to me on more than one occasion!-- IG-Prime (Sentience Core) 22:23, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Alright, nevermind then...-- IG-Prime (Sentience Core)[[Image:Cislogo.png|20px]] 21:41, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Category Editing(Cyborgs and Droid Species)
For some reason there is nothing where you told me to look. There is nothing under the category links.--ShadowTrooper 01:33, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Uldir Lochett
Hey MyNz, long time, no see. I've just nominated Uldir Lochett to be a Good article. I see that you are the one that has written most of that article—well done! You might like to vote for it on that page. It only needs 5 votes to be a "good article". --Eyrezer 07:02, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

User boxes
How do you place user boxes on your page such as being a supporter of droids or something like that.

--Darth Anonymous 08:51, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Just copy the template. and place it on your user page. MyNz 08:52, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. Does it matter what boxes you put on?--Darth Anonymous 08:58, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

No, do as you please. MyNz, 08:59 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Weekly article picture
What is the picture on the weekly article "old jedi order"? It looks very odd.--Andy 23:26, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Looks like its the old Jedi order symbol. MyNz 23:48, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Well, it was something else apart from the symbol. Sorry for the inconvenience.--Andy 02:52, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

New Comments on Forum about Userpage

 * New comments were posted on your forum thread about pages you find offensive. While disagree with your view--the page is not particularly inflammatory--you merely seem to not be able to tolerate much dissent with your worldviews--just notifying you that there are now responding comments.  Until an administrator orders the non-userbox/profile part of the page removed, it will stay.

 * Well EFCM, one of our bureaucrats (high ranking admin) Sikon has deleted your "commentary" from your user page citing enough is enough. Please, if you don't like conditions here feel free to leave us in peace and immigrate to another website which allows you to host such views or feel free to post your views at Forum:Possible amendments to user page policy and WP:NOT. Most of the admins involved like User:StarNeptune, User:SFH, User:Silly Dan User:Riffsyphon1024 and Sikon along with non-admins like User:Xwing328, User:SM-716, User:Green tentacle, User:Vladius Magnum and User:Havac seem to share similar views with me.

FA Reform

 * MyNz, I noticed you wanted more trustworthy users on the Inquisitorius. Who do you recommend? In order to qualify, it would have to be someone who is very active in FA and/or GA, and not just in nominating them, but in objecting and contributing also. The current balance for the Inquisitorius is 4 admins to 3 users. Breathesgelatin and Xwing328 would be members at large- they would only vote on removal of an Inquisitor and would fill in temporarily if one of the members was on vacation.

Why are you insisting on JPEG for this images?
I don't understand why you think Image:WildKarrde schem.jpg and Image:MT-AT(Pod).jpg should be JPEGs. They are linear drawings that would work well as PNG and even better as SVG. I see no logical reason to keep the JPEGs. Will (Talk - contribs) 08:20, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
