No offense was meant, my friend. I was merely following a precedent I've seen where trivia is removed, especially on Featured Articles. In fact, I've specifically seen trivia referring to translation issues removed on articles like Pil Diller. I believe you, and I do know some French, so their choice to change his name makes sense to me. Feel free to revert my edit if you like.&mdash; Graestan  ( This party's over ) 19:37, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

New Otoh Gunga
The New Otoh Gunga article has already been deleted after going through the requisite one-week period for not having a proper source. Please provide a proper source for the article, or it will be deleted. Guidelines can be found here. Additionally, please do not create articles without providing a proper source. Just creating an article haphazardly to kill a redlink does not help. Thank you. Toprawa and Ralltiir 21:59, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Even if it's only one source, that's all we need. Thank you for providing it. Toprawa and Ralltiir 22:07, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I was up to adding it, but I wasn't quick enough ;)You're welcome LelalMekha 22:14, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

Some Written Words
Hi Alban. Thank you for your kind words about The Written Word. As a fellow fan of constructed languages, I definitely understand your dissatisfaction with the way Star Wars languages have been handled; with other franchises having languages with grammars and phonologies that differ from English, the languages of Star Wars can seem lacking by comparison. While I would like to look at your work, I unfortunately can't look at fan-created versions of Star Wars languages for the same reasons that Star Wars story writers can't look at fan fiction. However, don't let that discourage your continued work on the project, and don't feel at all ashamed about working on constructed languages; it's an art form to be shared, not just a secret vice. jSarek 12:58, September 6, 2010 (UTC)

Articles
Hey there. Thanks for the new articles that you have been writing. I just wanted to point out a couple of things to you. When linking to existing articles, please try to link to the actual article and not a redirect. Also, please check to see if an article already exists for something, albeit under a slightly different name. That way you can create a redirect page instead of a duplicate article. Keep up the good work. Let me know if you have any questions. Cylka  -talk- 10:17, September 14, 2010 (UTC)

User page fanon, again

 * Well, I'll just completely erase it, I guess it's easier that way. No time to write a new user page right now, and I don't really need it anyway. LelalMekha 22:11, April 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks. 1358  (Talk)  22:12, April 29, 2011 (UTC)

Re:
Hi LelaMekha, thanks for the questions. I have the book in part, though I'm missing a few vital pages. As far as I'm aware he kills them aboard his family's starship, which is destroyed, the corpses along with it, and Plagueis, (who is an incredibly wealthy and influential buisisness man as well as a Sith Lord) uses his power to tie up the loose ends and conceal Palpy's involvement. In short, their deaths are put down to an accident. Don't hesitate to ask if you have further questions. Jayden Matthews 10:22, December 30, 2011 (UTC)

Huttese writing system
Hmm, that's a toughie. My immediate thought is that, no, the font itself is not canon. The writing system itself obviously is, but only the elements of it which we have canonically seen in use. That said, you should be able to have a field day with the Bts section, and hopefully as TOR expands, we'll get to see enough of the script to have something comprehensive soon. jSarek 05:58, January 24, 2012 (UTC)
 * Hey, Lelal, if you link an email address to your user page, I can email you some screenshots I've taken of various Huttese graffiti on Coruscant and Nar Shaddaa. That might help you catalogue which letters have been canonized and which haven't yet. ~ Savage BOB sig.png 13:07, January 24, 2012 (UTC)
 * Whoops -- I meant attaching an email address to your account via the "Preferences" options. If I were you, I'd remove the email address from your user page, since it's vulnerable to spambots that way. You should be able to attach an email such that people can email you through the site anonymously, which protects your privacy and spam-freeness that way. :) (That said, I'll try to email you some screenshots tonight or tomorrow.) ~ Savage BOB sig.png 14:45, January 24, 2012 (UTC)

Sith writing
I honestly don't know whether we can make the assumption that it's High Sith. If the book just calls it Sith, it could be High Sith, or it could be some yet unseen variation on the language not covered by my article. I agree that finding a way to make it High Sith is currently the best solution given the available facts, but that's probably something that can only be made true by a retcon through official sources, not us. That's just my take on it, though. jSarek 11:17, February 1, 2012 (UTC)

Yoda's Challenge Activity Center
How's the project going? The youngling article looks good. --R5-X41238-G8-R3-3124-D2 13:18, March 20, 2012 (UTC)
 * As far as the informations are concerned, I think the article is complete (or nearly so). The only thing left is the text himself, that I find plain.LelalMekha 13:27, March 20, 2012 (UTC)
 * You want me to prepare a second draft? --R5-X41238-G8-R3-3124-D2 13:59, March 20, 2012 (UTC)
 * I'd be glad to see you do so.LelalMekha 14:06, March 20, 2012 (UTC)
 * All right, I'll get to it. I'll be working with the text as it stands now, OK? Any corrections you make, please mark them in bold, or in red (or both, that's what I do) so that they don't get lost. --R5-X41238-G8-R3-3124-D2 14:18, March 20, 2012 (UTC)
 * I have added my draft to my talk page. Take a look and tell me what you think. I also believe that the information must be added to the Yoda, Obi-Wan, Naboo, Padmé, Jar Jar, C-3PO and Anakin articles. --R5-X41238-G8-R3-3124-D2 15:35, March 20, 2012 (UTC)
 * Why, thank you. Its sounds like better English that way, not like my Hercule Poirotesque prose. I'm wondering if I should add pictures for every mission or not, lest it becomes just too much.LelalMekha 15:44, March 20, 2012 (UTC)
 * Pictures are good, if you ask me. If not all of them fit, at least upload them so that they are available. --R5-X41238-G8-R3-3124-D2 15:52, March 20, 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, I'll try and see how it looks.LelalMekha 15:54, March 20, 2012 (UTC)

Kallig
Where is it that developers assume that Sith characters will go full dark side, culminating in Kallig being bestowed the title Darth Nox. Post a link in the Kallig page that refers to it in detail. --Senjuto 14:30, March 22, 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, hello to you too... The developers don't assume that. Wookieepedia does. It is not I who chose to put the assumption tag, so if you want to complain, I suggest you write on the talk page of the "Kallig" article rather than here.LelalMekha 20:11, March 22, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Qui-Gon
Understood. However, I couldn't tell because the mention of how Qui-Gon smelled and looked is not in the article. If it is something that you feel needs to go into the Traits and appearances section, then be bold and put it in (proof reading it first of course). Otherwise, you might want to specifically mention the quote's or related info's possible inclusion in the article first when discussing what the quote means. &mdash; Gethralkin  Hyperwave 23:34, March 22, 2012 (UTC)

Unidentified young recruit
Hey. Just wanted to say good work with expanding this article. It is great to see. I hope that you will continue to work on it to make it as complete as possible. I would be happy to give you some tips if you want to think about making it into a Good article. --Eyrezer 10:21, March 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * Why, thank you. It would be a great matter of pride to turn it into a GA. I've already received assistance to transform my bad Hercule Poirot prose into proper English, but any other tips are most welcome indeed. LelalMekha 10:29, March 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * Cool. Well my first suggestion is that the article needs to be sourced. This means that every item in the infobox, and every paragraph needs to have a reference tag to it. It looks like you know how to source, since you correctly added the sourcing for C-3PO's storytelling, but if you need any help, see Sourcing. My second suggestion is that there are too many subsections in the History. At the moment, every paragraph is its own sub-section. For the length of the article, I suggest two or possibly three sub-sections at the most. --Eyrezer 23:27, March 30, 2012 (UTC)
 * Will do. I think my two new subdivisions will be: "Missions on Naboo" and "Missions on Tatooine" (or something like that). I'll be working on it in my sandbox first.--LelalMekha 08:49, March 31, 2012 (UTC)
 * You will have seen that a edited the references. The full reference style is only needed for the first reference, and then the abbreviated form, can be used. Some more suggestions: It would be good to see some of the quotes added back in for the condensed sub-sections. I also think that you could expand the Personality and traits section. At the moment, it seems to jump right in. Take a look at P&T sections in some other Jedi articles to see what is possible. --Eyrezer 11:31, April 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * Great. I'll give it a copy-edit and see what else I can think of to improve it. --Eyrezer 09:46, April 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * I have made some changes based on what you already had there. Let me know if you think I misinterpreted anything. Some questions:
 * "... apparently sent by Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi." Does this refer to Yoda or the youngling? Is there an implication the Obi-Wan discovered the youngling?
 * "the youngling seemed to be a precocious child". What are you basing this on?
 * I am really curious about the Tiperoo. What role did it play in making the songs? --Eyrezer 11:38, April 4, 2012 (UTC)

Re:Skere Kaan
I understand. It's not a huge deal to me, and if you feel like you can make the case that it was an obvious reference that the author was trying to make or that a buch of fans noticed, it's usually okay to add that kind of stuff (the way you worded it was perfectly fine). I only reverted it in this instance because I have a hard time imagining that that was Jason Fry's intent, or that many fans would see the name and immediately think "ah, yes... The Jungle Book". However, I'm obviously not the final authority on such things, so if you would really like for it to be included, I would recommend that you bring the matter up on the talk page and see if any other community members think that the connection is notable enough for its addition to not violate WP:TRIVIA. Cheers! Darth Trayus ( Trayus Academy ) 09:42, April 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * Hi LelaMekha, it may be of interest to you to know that Jason Fry has announced that he will publish his endnotes for TEGTW next week, and my guess would be that he will probably state in them whether he intended Kaan's name as a reference to the Jungle Book. --Jinzler 10:37, April 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * Why, thank you for this piece of information, Jinzler. Obviously, I wasn't the only one thinking there was something there. ^^ "Genn-Ghis Kaan" or "Kooh-bluh Kaan" would have been fine too. ;-) --LelalMekha 10:41, April 4, 2012 (UTC)

RE: Unidentified young recruit: nearly there
No need to thank me, you did all the work. Actual research towers over minor corrective work in the difficulty department. Have you added the information from the game to the referenced articles? I can do that if you haven't. --R5-X41238-G8-R3-3124-D2 11:20, April 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * Here's my take on the Binks part:

"Following the resolution of the Naboo crisis, Jar Jar Binks became involved with the restoration of peace on the planet. With the help of a precocious Jedi youngling, General Binks set up traps in the Sacred Forest for the last operational battle droids. As a key player in the reconciliation between the two cultures of Naboo, Jar Jar Binks participated in the Victory Races; mounted on a kaadu, he competed against Queen Amidala on a tusk cat."

"Ambush on Tatooine (Darth Maul)" looks fine to me. It's exhaustively sourced and contains no errors. I don't know what's wrong with it. --R5-X41238-G8-R3-3124-D2 12:44, April 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * Any help you might want, just let me know. --R5-X41238-G8-R3-3124-D2 13:30, April 5, 2012 (UTC)
