I was getting to it, but thank you for reminding me about there being no sources. I found a source so I removed the. --Gmalek ( The ability to edit does not make you intelligent ) 00:51, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * No problem :). Grunny  ( talk ) 00:52, October 10, 2010 (UTC)

New skin stuff
I assume you're already aware, but to be in safe side, era icons are possibly the last thing missing in js (and wordmark in styling, File:Wordmark-logo.png is possibility after some cleaning?). (: --Tm_T(Talk) 10:42, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I'm going to have play with where the best place to put the eras in the new skin would be and whether positioning them with CSS might be easier in the new skin. I've added the logo with CSS. I tried uploading it through the theme designer but it will only take images that are exactly 250 × 65 pixels. So it might need a resizing at some point. :) Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 00:02, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Wookieeproject
Hello! I have a really good idea for a WookieeProject. I asked Xicer9 if it was okay to start it and he said "yeah" as long as I "didn't screw up majorly". Is that true? I just wanna clear this up before I start. --Gmalek ( The ability to edit does not make you intelligent ) 01:25, October 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, anyone can create a WookieeProject, so you can make one. :) Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 01:27, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Sound template
I like the sound template you have on here and I was wondering if you could tell me how to use it. -- Alex Martin Rider 01:22, October 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Do you mean the "Listen" at the end of quotes? If so, take a look at the Quote and Dialogue template pages, which explain how to use them with an audio file in the audio section. Let me know if you have any questions about it. Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 01:34, October 17, 2010 (UTC)

Force speed
Hey Grunny, just giving you a heads-up that put a merge template on Force speed, and he's said that he interprets The Jedi Path to say that Force speed (along with some other powers) is just an aspect of Altus sopor. I don't have The Jedi Path to check it out myself, so I just thought I'd let you know. Cheers! Jonjedigrandmaster ( Talk ) 00:13, October 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Jugs. I've replied on Purpilia's talk page :). Grunny  ( talk ) 04:24, October 21, 2010 (UTC)

IE CSS problem
Hey Grunny. I don't know if anyone's mentioned this to you, but there's currently a bug that seems to be from the local CSS when viewing Wookieepedia using Internet Explorer. It shows two wordmarks, both the custom one and the words "Wookieepedia" that would normally be replaced by the custom wordmark image. Here is an image of it. I just wanted to make sure you knew, since you're typically the coding guy here. :) - Brandon Rhea  (talk) 16:13, October 22, 2010 (UTC)


 * Hey, I talked to Tm T and he said that it was caused by the hack to put the wordmark up via CSS. I suggested to him, and he suggested that I suggest it to you, that&mdash;as a temporary solution, because he's working to tweak it anyway&mdash;the canvas area of the wordmark image be the exact required Theme Designer size. That'll keep the logo in the wordmark the same size, while allowing you to upload it via the Theme Designer and remove the hack, thus getting rid of the problem. - Brandon Rhea Alliance Starbird.svg (talk) 18:34, October 22, 2010 (UTC)

Just to give you a heads up, I was given a 250x65 version of the wordmark. I can upload it via the Theme Designer if you want, or I can send it to you. Let me know. - Brandon Rhea  (talk) 22:39, October 22, 2010 (UTC)


 * Done. It increases the canvas size, so it's good for a temporary solution until the logo itself can be made bigger, or until Tm T revises it. I don't know the sourcing and licensing information, though, so I'll leave that up to you or someone else who knows. - Brandon Rhea Alliance Starbird.svg (talk) 03:08, October 23, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks
Hey Grunny, just a quick thanks for catching my eras mistake on Korsinata. I guess the whole Legacy era thing is a habit for me now. :P Jonjedigrandmaster  ( Talk ) 02:32, October 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Haha no worries :). Grunny  ( talk ) 02:37, October 26, 2010 (UTC)

The Diary of Antos Wyrick
Hey Grunny, I recently created the article The Secret Journal of Doctor Demagol (in-universe), but was told I should move it to simply The Secret Journal of Doctor Demagol, as IU articles get precedence over OOU articles. Would you mind working your magic and changing the links for The Secret Journal of Doctor Demagol to The Secret Journal of Doctor Demagol (article) so I can move The Secret Journal of Doctor Demagol (in-universe) to The Secret Journal of Doctor Demagol? Thanks! Darth Trayus ( Trayus Academy ) 22:54, October 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sure, I'll get to it in a bit. Grunny  ( talk ) 23:06, October 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Done. Grunny  ( talk ) 06:05, October 29, 2010 (UTC)

Trash Compactor/Galen Marek (clone)
Why was my vote cut out on the "Trash Compactor/Galen Marek (clone)" page? I have more than 50 edits made. JRT2010 04:29, November 1, 2010 (UTC)JRT2010
 * Hi. The reason your vote was stricken, is because you have less than 50 mainspace edits per our voting policy. Mainspace edits are basically article edits. So if you go to Special:Editcount/JRT2010 you'll see the value for "(Main)" you currently only have 43 mainspace edits. Once you get to 50 your vote can be reinstated. Hope that helps. Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 04:32, November 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * Okay, thanks for clearing that up for me. But it doesn't make any sense that the clone page is up for possible deletion, at least not with the reasons that have been given. Dylax actually said it best - how the clone having Marek's memories is similar to Spar having Jango's, and yet Spar has his own page and is seen as a separate individual. In a way, he also pointed out how assuming that Vader lied about Starkiller being a clone, and having no confirmation about it, is pure speculation and violates this site's policy. If at some later point he is confirmed to be the real Starkiller, then Id be the first to admit I was wrong and that the clone page should be merged with the original. But as it stands right now, I just do not see how the opposing side's arguments hold up. JRT2010 04:52, November 1, 2010 (UTC)JRT2010

Hey, so I made it past 50 mainspace edits. Should I just vote again or should I just reinstate the vote that was stricken out? It's still there, just crossed out. Or does it not matter either way? JRT2010 12:08, November 2, 2010 (UTC)JRT2010
 * I've unstruck the vote for you. Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 13:28, November 2, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I appreciate that. One last question though. How many votes does it take to decide whether to keep or delete the article. Just wondering because it has been going on for a while now. JRT2010 13:51, November 2, 2010 (UTC)JRT2010
 * You can read how we determine consensus on votes at our Consensus policy. Votes go for two weeks, unless a vote overwhelmingly supports one option. There would need to be a significant majority voting delete for the article to be deleted. Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 23:28, November 2, 2010 (UTC)

Help
Hey Grunny,

I'd like to chat with you in IRC when it is convenient for you. Please let me know when that is, and I'll make whatever arrangements are necessary to meet you there. Thanks, —Tommy 9281 21:50, November 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm online now, and will be for the next couple of hours, if you're available. Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 23:34, November 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * I won't be able to get there until about hour and a half or so. Will you still be around? —Tommy 9281 01:22, November 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * I should be. Grunny  ( talk ) 01:25, November 3, 2010 (UTC)

Side wiki Javascript template implimentation
Hey again Grunny. jSarek said you might be the person to ask about this. I also have a wiki for Back to the Future media called Futurepedia. On there I added the Appearances template and I want to implement the Hide feature. So far the App template works but any addition I've made concerning the Hide code is unable to work properly. Might you be able to scan through the Jv meta pages to see what element is missing to complete the Hide feature? Thanks. --  Riffsyphon  1024 07:27, November 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hey Riffs. I replied on your talk page there. Let me know if you have any issues with it. Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 08:17, November 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * I want to thank you here as well. The Hide feature works perfectly on Futurepedia. Now I will expand it to other areas like the films and animated series episodes. :) --  Riffsyphon  1024 08:31, November 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * No problem :). Grunny  ( talk ) 08:33, November 10, 2010 (UTC)

New format
Interesting. Well, if the goal is, as the CT says, "So I'm asking the community to come to a consensus on which method we should use consistently," they have a ways to go. JMAS applied the new format to 7 pages, all of which fit in the Category:Dark Acolytes. This left every other category extremely disorganized, as none of the thousands of other pages were modified. Still, whatever, if that's the new format, I'll leave it as is. Simply noting that this decision will only eliminate consistency, not establish it. Enochf 09:57, November 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Meh. Here's an example of how much work there is left undone. Category:Images of individuals by name/B. Here's an example of a job half-assed-done. Category:Images of locations by planet. If it were actually implemented, I wouldn't be so annoyed. As it stands, just an icky mess. Enochf 10:34, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Jango Fett's Legacy
In Knights of the Old Republic II, Kreia predicted the end of the Mandalorians and the fate of one Mandalorian in particular who was easily slain by a Jedi. Is she referring to Jango Fett? Because the "all too easily slain by a Jedi" seems to give it away as such. It was removed from Jango's Legacy section awhile ago because some fans thought it was speculation, but it comes from a canon source like the game itself. I don't think it's speculation to say that she predicted the decline of the Mandalorians from her time, a decline that lasted for millennia. JRT2010 11:00, November 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's speculation to absolutely say that the prophecy referred to Jango Fett without having it stated somewhere. The information on the prophecy should be included in the Mandalorian article, but only the specific canon information of what was said. We try to present information without speculation, and fans can make their own assumptions and theories. Hope that helps :-). Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 11:07, November 29, 2010 (UTC)


 * I created a Legacy section for the Mandalorian page and placed Kreia's Prophecy on it so thanks, that did help. JRT2010 11:58, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Revan
I wanted to add how Revan's personality dramatically changed in the Mandalorian Wars, such as from genuinely wanting save the Republic to falling to the dark side. But a lot of that is based on things said by other characters like Canderous, HK-47, Kreia, and the members of the Jedi Council. Obviously everything they said about Revan can't be included into the personality section if it's subjective, but what about if they're backed up with facts? For example, HK-47 noted that everyone who Revan sent to Malachor V were soldiers and Jedi who's loyalty were not completely with him. HK-47 believed that Revan was basically "cleaning house", so could things like that be added to his personality (prior to his "new personality" in the first game)? JRT2010 21:48, December 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * If the information on Revan's personality is from the perspective of other characters, then it most definitely can/should be included, but it needs to be made clear that it is from that person's point of view. For example, "According to Kreia, ..." or "Kreia considered Revan to be..." and so forth. Hope that helps :). Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 08:09, December 8, 2010 (UTC)

Inqmoot 38
Just letting you know that Inqmoot 38 is scheduled for this Saturday evening. Hope to see you there. Toprawa and Ralltiir 19:23, December 6, 2010 (UTC)

KB rule 11
I did not notice until now, but My KB forum topic, "Did CC-7567 Ever die" was removed by you according to you in accordance with KB rule 11. I take this as a personal attack, as this rule states that the Knowledge Bank is not there "to cater to your lack of ability to read", and as it says nothing about CC-7567 being killed in his article, this complaint is invalid. brightfur 02:15, December 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * That's exactly the point, we don't know when/if he died as the article reflects. Another user correctly tagged the forum post for deletion under rule 11, and I therefore deleted it. I suggest you read up on what constitutes a personal attack before throwing the term around, as enforcing site rules in forums is in no way a personal attack. Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 08:02, December 8, 2010 (UTC)

Need an Inq opinion
Hey Grunny. I'm looking for the opinion of a few Inqs on one of my objections to the Wedge FAN. and I disagree on whether Quote or Dialogue should be used for this quote. As neither Havac nor I are Inqs, it would be helpful to obtain the opinion of a few Inqs on this matter. Your input would be appreciated, and I've also asked Tope and Tommy to weigh in on the matter. Thanks.  Master Jonathan  ( Jedi Council Chambers ) 18:46, December 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hey MJ. The MoS is quite clear, and while the Dialogue template was used for long back-and-forths prior to Forum:CT Archive/Quotations, that CT established the rule of using Quote for two speakers regardless of length. If Havac wants that changed, he can start a CT, but right now it must be changed to quote per FAN rule 4 "...follow the Manual of Style, Layout Guide, and all other policies on Wookieepedia." Hope that helps. Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 22:08, December 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I've informed him of your, Tope's, and Tommy's responses on the nom page.  Master Jonathan New Jedi Order.svg ( Jedi Council Chambers ) 22:27, December 10, 2010 (UTC)

The Salvation
I was thinking about adding a lot more information to the Salvation, a Rebel starship, since it has next to nothing at the moment. For starters, I thought about adding production information, technical specifications, etc. Since the ship is an EF76 Nebulon-B escort frigate, could I just use certain information from that page on the Salvation? Since that is its class, I'm assuming that it would have the same specifications, or would that be going too far? If not, I could just skip the info box and add the information from TFU II in a history section. JRT2010 00:08, January 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * Apart from basic information like the model and manufacturer, we generally don't make assumptions about technical information, as ships are often modified from their model's default specifications, especially ships used by the Rebellion. It's best to only work with information that is confirmed about that specific ship. Hope that helps. Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 10:03, January 9, 2011 (UTC)

Inq meeting rescheduled
Inq meeting 39 has been rescheduled for this Saturday evening, January 15, at the same scheduled time, 7 PM EST for North Americans. The meeting was postponed this past weekend because no one bothered to show up. If you value your position in the Inq, we expect you to please make an effort to be in attendance. If you cannot attend the meeting, we still expect you to participate by leaving notes on the meeting page. Thank you. Toprawa and Ralltiir 22:29, January 10, 2011 (UTC)

Hey Grunny, I just wanted to say thank you for your guest contribution to WP:TOR with Tengrove. I know it was way back in November, but I honestly never noticed it up until just now. I didn't get the chance to thank you for the work then, but I guess it's better late than never! Darth Trayus ( Trayus Academy ) 06:02, January 19, 2011 (UTC)

Help with Template:Title
Heya. I principally edit at the Doctor Who Wiki and am trying to implement italics in titles. I tried to adapt something from wikipeida, but Wikia.css didn't play nice. Then I tried to the title template here, and I just can't figure it out. I've created a test wiki to help me test css changes in a safe environment, and I've been lookin' at it for a week. I just don't get it. I note you made a substantial change to the template and to the common.css file here on the 17th January 2010 under the edit note of "1.1 Cleanup", and that you seem to have written the java, so I'm guessin' you must know a thing or two about how it works. So far, I've got the following: Yet, when I place title on my page at w:c:tardistest:The Seeds of Death, I get no joy in either the Wikia or Monobook skins. It's still as unitalicised as ever. You seem really busy round here and wikia generally, but if you could take a look, I'd be really grateful. What am I missing? It's kinda makin' me batty. The only thing the template seems to be calling for that no .css file want to define is title-align, but I'm not sure that explains the lack of italicisation.  czech out  ☎ ✍    
 * Obviously, the code from title is at w:c:tardistest:template:title.
 * The one li'l reference to #title-meta in MediaWiki:Wikia.css is at w:c:tardistest:MediaWiki:Wikia.css
 * The code at MediaWiki:Wikia.js that relates to the title change is at w:c:tardistest:MediaWiki:Wikia.js
 * Title is no longer necessary to italicize titles. With the recent upgrade to MediaWiki 1.16, the DISPLAYTITLE magic word can now handle italics much better and without the need for any JS or CSS hacks. The format for that is  to italicize the whole title, or you can easily pick and choose which part(s) to italicize, such as  .  Master Jonathan  New Jedi Order.svg ( Jedi Council Chambers ) 23:54, January 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * Just a note, DISPLAYTITLE currently doesn't work in the new skin. So, if you want logged-out users to see the changed title, you'll still need Title for now. Grunny  ( talk ) 00:08, February 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, regardless of what DISPLAYTITLE may or may not do, you have no idea how grateful I am to finally figure out what the heck I was missing.  Thanks, Grunny, for your assistance.  If I can impose on you for a little more very general advice — is there some place I can go for a guideline of what should go in common.css vs. wikia.css and monobook.css?  The TARDIS wiki had virtually no css coding prior to about two weeks ago, when I started playing around with it.  So, essentially, we're starting css usage post-oasis.  I know on this wiki and memory alpha, there'e the notion of putting most everything into common.css and then importing into wikia.  But I gather that's at least somewhat because you guys have been playing with css for years, and therefore already had stuff in common and monobook.  Is there anything wrong with starting in wikia and importing wikia.css back into common and monobook?

bad apostrophes
Thanks for redirecting/moving etc those articles with bad apostrophes... was a real hell trying to conform to changes and fix and change stuff back and have them just deleted >.>

Bla, thanks Calithlin 08:30, February 2, 2011 (UTC)

Some assistance
Hey Grunny, I was wondering if you could use your mystic powahs to change all the links to Second Battle of Jabiim (Clone Wars) to simply Battle of Jabiim (Clone Wars)? After looking through a number of sources, it seems that "Battle of Jabiim" is the official name. Thanks much. Darth Trayus ( Trayus Academy ) 02:40, February 25, 2011 (UTC)

Wikia tricks
Hi there, I'm an admin of the [matrix.wikia.com Matrix Wiki] and have noticed a couple of tricks here on Wookieepedia that I can't replicate on other wikis.

The main one is the Show/Hide collapsible links that I've spotted on some of your infoboxes: this would be really useful in similar context and also for sections of some of our (too long) credits pages.

The other one I just noticed on your user page: using Template:USERNAME to include the name of the person viewing the page.

So my question is what would I have to do to add these to the Matrix Wiki?

Cheers! --xensyriaT 17:42, March 2, 2011 (UTC)

Image Upload
Hi, I'm the founder of the Redwall Wiki. I was just curious as to how you made it so that when someone clicks the "Add an image" button, they are redirected to Special:Upload, instead of the popup dialog box. -- LordTBT Talk! 17:16, March 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * One of our admins added this JS to do it: MediaWiki:Wikia.js. Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 23:39, March 6, 2011 (UTC)

Hi there. I noticed you own a copy of The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia. Could you check what it tells about this guy, Kime Enanrum? Kreivi Wolter 13:04, March 13, 2011 (UTC)
 * Nevermind, I already found out. Kreivi Wolter 13:18, March 17, 2011 (UTC)

About css again
Hi, apparently #title-shortcut part in the MediaWiki:Common.css should be moved to MediaWiki:Wikia.css as it causes doubled box with Monobook. I should have tested it a bit more, sorry about that. (: –Tm_T (Talk) 22:02, March 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * No worries. Fixed :). Grunny  ( talk ) 22:09, March 25, 2011 (UTC)

IRC
Hey Grunny, long time no see. You are obviously aware of the upcoming Mofference, and I was hoping to attend, but I am still banned on the IRC. I was originally banned by Graestan two years ago, and I asked him to unban me a few days ago so I could attend the Mofference, but he left the site before replying to my request. Is it possible you could unban me from the IRC? I can understand if you don't want to get innvolved, but I really want to attend the meeting. Kilson 00:22, March 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi Kilson. Sure, I'll unban you on IRC, but I can't be sure which ban is matching your account. If you come on IRC while I'm online and PM me, I can remove the ban (assuming one is still in place). Just make sure not to get in any trouble ;-). Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 07:56, March 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * What times are you generally on? Also, it has been awhile since I was on the IRC, what's the personal message command? Kilson 19:24, March 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, I'm online now. But I'm not convinced a ban is affecting you right now. Try joining the  channel, if you are banned from it, type   and if I'm online, , alternatively, you can try asking Darth Culator. Cheers,  Grunny  ( talk ) 23:54, March 27, 2011 (UTC)

Disabling the new article / file popup
Hey there, it's been a while! (we chatted a bit on the Firefly wiki some time ago, if you forgot)

I noticed that the popup leading to Special:Upload and Special:CreatePage is disabled on Wookieepedia. I guess you provided the code? Could you tell me how to achieve this? I really need users to notice the need to use Template:Information at Combine OverWiki. Thanks for your help. ;) Klow 13:25, March 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * The create page popup was disabled by Wikia staff as it is not suited to this wiki and we already have some preload options in our edittools. So you can use Special:Contact to request them to turn that off. The upload pop-up was disabled with JS one of our admins added here. Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 14:03, March 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks! Quite helpful, as always! Klow 14:51, March 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Mhh. I noticed that due to theses changes the left click doesn't work anymore for the standard galleries, the image categories and the new file gallery... Help! Klow 17:11, March 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * Can you link me to an example of what you mean? Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 06:51, March 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * Here. The small gallery within the page, and the new files on the right, under the menu. Then in the new files, same thing... No left click possible. Klow 07:31, March 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * That looks more likely caused by the imagelinks function you added to your Common.js, which might be a ToU violation with the feature policy. Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 07:48, March 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well apparently not. After disabling the imagelink code, that still doesn't work... Klow 18:54, March 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * Okay, found what's going on. The left click is working, it is bringing up the lightbox. However, you're hiding the lightbox with CSS here.

Hey I was able to get valuable information on SWBF3, my contact in LA wishs to remain annoymous in all standerds and will not comply with comfirming the date due to the trisk of being sued or fired. My contact got the info from his cousin who was in the SWBF dept. I heard there was a block on it and I request that you please leave a message for me on my talk page so I can give you this information. I risk haveing this info stolen and will not post it here due to how many regular users there are on your page. Thank you. Metalbro82 23:48, March 30, 2011 (UTC)

Your assistance needed
I'm sure you know what tomorrow is. Xwing has some pages made for us that we can use and I was hoping you could tie it all together code wise, in both Monobook and Wikia skins.

 * If I may butt in, it's rather simple "have a quote page for every single date, and then use the date as dynamic part of the transclude". To explain every piece of QOTD, each of these are placeholders for the current day, month and a year respectively. Archive  is simply a link to be added for qotd archives. And then, for example the qotd of today is then located in Quote of the Day/18 April 2011. Hopefully this explains it well enough. (: –Tm_T (Talk) 09:32, April 18, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah. the explanation was good. But The Matrix Wiki doesn't have that many users or quotes that a new quote be implied every day.

"Notable practitioners" of Force powers
Hey Grunny! Since you were the one who successfully nominated Force speed to GA status, could you please explain what were your criteria of notability for addition of its users to the "Notable practitioners" field in the infobox? And what are such criteria in general? I mean, I realize the infobox can't (and shouldn't) have a comprehensive list, but if Thaum Rystra is listed and Galen Marek is left out...

Pilot chatter
Hey there, Grunny,

I know that you have a mountain of Legacy characters to update, but just a heads-up that Jae Akura was mentioned in Legacy: War 4 on page 8. On that note, I was wondering if you could help me out with something. In that issue, the starfighters of Storm, Crasher, and Cannon all appear, and Crasher comms Gunner to say "Storm and Cannon have to withdraw!" I was wondering if you had any words of advice on how to treat those characters' "Appearances" sections. Would it be a for Storm and Cannon and a  for Crasher? Or would something else be in order, since they "appear" inside their starships? Any wisdom would be awesome. Thanks! Menkooroo 04:56, May 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I missed that. (I really have to get to work on these updates :P) I treated it as an appearance if I could tell that their starship appeared, like if a speech bubble of them talking came from one of the fighters. So in Legacy&mdash;War 4, I can't tell if Storm's fighter is in any of the frames for certain, so I used Mo. Not sure if this is the best approach, but it's how I've been doing it :P. Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 00:02, May 3, 2011 (UTC)


 * That sounds good. Thanks for the insight. :) Another quick note that, unfortunately, only increases your workload: Thanks to an image upload by Cato Neimoidia, I just realized that Sayar Dun'la is in Issue 25 of Legacy, meaning that the beginning of his bio'll have to be updated to discuss his presence when the Mynock and the IK's arrived at the temple. Sorry! :P Menkooroo 13:14, May 13, 2011 (UTC)

Unable to Upload Images
Hello, Grunny! I don't know if I've met you before, so my name is Cato Neimoidia. I've been editing Wookieepedia on and off for five-six years now. Anyways, my recent projects have revolved around Star Wars: Legacy and Star Wars: Legacy—War. A lot of these articles are a little behind and need to be updated, especially seeing how the series is comming to an end in the next issue. However, recently i've been unable to upload images. The site thinks i'm spamming the site or something.

The last time I had a major editing phase, I greatly expanded a number of articles, such as Deliah Blue and Jariah Syn. To go with the text, I used a tool (the "Add Image") on the right side of the new skin (that has seemingly been taken down/linked to the normal form) that allowed me to upload many images quickly. They would initially been unsourced and everything, but I quickly sourced them using copy/paste and editing. I found this faster to be faster than using the normal Special:Upload. However, now I cannot add images using that tool. Instead I get one of two messages:

"<This action has been automatically identified as harmful, and therefore disallowed. If you believe your edit was constructive, please contact an administrator, and inform them of what you were trying to do. A brief description of the abuse rule which your action matched is: Combined unverified user upload prevention >""

OR

< >

I contacted CC7567 about this matter and he directed me towards you for your tech-savvyness. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks! -- Cato Neimoidia 22:09, May 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi. It's because you don't have an email confirmed in your preferences. In response to upload abuse, requiring a user to be emailconfirmed was an extra check that was put in place. So if you put an email in your preferences (a good idea anyway :-)) and confirm it, you should be able to upload. Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 23:08, May 9, 2011 (UTC)

Star Wars Roleplay Wiki
Hello, Grunny.

Before I start, I would like to tell you that when I created my account, I did not realie I could use the same account for the many different Wikias. I am Anti-Umbridge league on all other wikias, so it might take me some time to get back to you.

I am a user on the Star Wars Roleplay Wiki, which has not got enough users and needs to expand. The wiki allows you to create your own character and then roleplay them by opening shops, flying starships, becoming Jedi etc.

We were wondering whether it would be possible a link on the main page of Wookiepedia, so Star Wars Fans can go to the Star Wars Roleplay Wiki as well.

Thanks

Imperial Commandos
Hey, I noticed that the pages for the Republic Commandos (the ones with designations that we know of) still go by their Republic designations, despite being renamed Imperial Commandos (IC). For example, RC-1138 (Boss) should now technically be IC-1138, since he and the other two remaining members of Delta Squad went on to serve the Empire as Imperial Commandos of the 501st Legion. Obviously Sev's designation would not be changed since he went missing just before the Empire was created; the commandos that deserted wouldn't have IC-designations either. But for those that remained like Delta Squad, shouldn't their pages be moved to reflect their Imperial designations? I was thinking of doing that, but I wanted to check with an administrator first.JRT2010 10:24, May 22, 2011 (UTC)

Help with a template
Hi Grunny, it's Jayden from the Harry Potter Wiki. I seem to remeber that you're quite savvy when it comes to technical editing and template creation? If so I could really use your help. I've just been made admin on the True Blood Wiki and I would like to create a template, which, when added to an infobox will randomly select a main image from a specific list of files whenever the page is loaded. I've seen this done on another (non wikia) wiki, and have tried copying their code, but it doesn't work. I'm not sure if you know how this is done, or if you even know what I'm talking about, but if you do your help would really be appreciated. Thanks. Jayden Matthews 11:03, June 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi Jayden. Sure, I can help you out, can you link me to the template you're using? Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 12:35, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

HTML help
Hi Grunny! I would like to ask you to help me revamp my signature. I managed to get to this level: <font face="Book Antiqua" color="grey">TK999&mdash;[Discuss] However, I realized that the <tt> </tt> tag is deprecated, so I switched to <tt>  </tt>. The problem is that the effect of "span" ends when it runs into wikilink brackets, so formatting the signature to make it look like the aforementioned version would mean unnecessary coding. Is there a way to describe the formatting at its first mention and then use a shorter variant in all subsequent places? If I had to type <tt> </tt> (which doesn't work) or something along this line, that would be perfect. Any help would be appreciated! Cheers,&mdash;<font face="Tempus Sans ITC">TK-999 (Rise of the Empire) 17:12, July 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * Not really, defining a rule would require CSS, which we obviously don't add to the site for user signatures. The correct way to make it look exactly the same would be this:

 * Keeping the conversation together. Grunny, I'll send it to you when you want. We might need a little more advertising. Will a main page link need a CT? Also, maybe throw it up on the site notice? Tm_T, news aggregation will probably be a good idea. If we can tweet links to FAs/ QotDs on a daily basis, that would be good as well. Riffs; thanks for that!

Template coding issue
Hey Grunny. I'm trying to rework the meeting time infobox to be easier to use by auto-calculating all times from a single specified time in either UTC or U.S. Eastern Time, as well as displaying the proper time zones in the proper places based on daylight saving time rules. It's the second part of this that I've run into a snag on. Take a look at the template and the test page. Under the "UTC" header on the test page, you'll see that it's throwing me an "expression error". I have analyzed the code for a half hour, and despite usually being able to figure out templates, I cannot find the source of this error. I've checked the syntax multiple times, and it appears to be correct, yet I'm still getting the error. The error only occurs when  is specified without  ; if   is specified, no error is produced regardless of whether   is specified or not (this makes sense since the template first tries to calculate the time zone based on the ET parameter, and goes to UTC only if ET is not specified). I've given up on trying to find the error; can you track it down? If so, I would greatly appreciate it. Feel free to edit either page directly to run tests if needed.

Hey. You might want to take a look at the page history of Galactic Empire; 64.107.219.139's edit summaries might be worth redacting with RevisionDelete.  Master Jonathan &mdash; Jedi Council Chambers <sub style="margin-left:-11.75em;">Wednesday, August 31, 2011, 19:05 UTC

Changing user names
Hi Grunny!

I was wondering, is there a way that I can change my user name which is 501st Sniper?

--501st Sniper 00:28, September 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi 501st Sniper. You can request to have your username changed through Special:Contact. This process cannot be reversed, and once we change your username, we cannot change it again. I'd suggest reading this article: http://help.wikia.com/wiki/Help:Changing_your_username and that you double check that the username you want is not already in use and is spelled correctly when making the request. If you are not worried about keeping the edits you have made so far, you can simply create a new account and redirect your current user page to your new one (just make sure not to edit under both accounts!). I hope that helps :). Cheers, grunny &#64; wookieepedia :&#126;$ 09:23, September 14, 2011 (UTC)

Hi Grunny!

Thanks for your help and I'll keep your suggestion in mind.

Question
Why do you need check user if your a util already? Are staff rights not permitted to do local wiki actions? Thanks. --TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs)  01:47, September 19, 2011 (UTC)

AWB
Can you please add my name and to the AWB checkpage? I just downloaded it and would like to learn how to use it. AJTD6 is a new account I created that is intended as a bot account for larger tasks to avoid flooding recent changes; I haven't filed a request for the bot flag yet at Wookieepedia talk:Bots yet because I'd like to gain a little experience with the tool first. Thanks.  Master Jonathan &mdash; Jedi Council Chambers <sub style="margin-left:-11.75em;">Monday, September 19, 2011, 02:52 UTC
 * Done. Be sure to mention that the bot belongs to you on its user page, so people can tell straight away who it is run by :). Cheers, grunny &#64; wookieepedia :&#126;$ 02:59, September 19, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks, and done.  Master Jonathan &mdash; Jedi Council Chambers <sub style="margin-left:-11.75em;">Monday, September 19, 2011, 03:01 UTC

Template
If you'd like, i can make a icon template that allows you to put on your user page that says this user has admin rights and links to a admin page, with a png file you can provide. Like the one at Commmunity Central, im pretty sure that you already know how to do it since your a ninja though. Well, reply to this either way and thanks! :) --TheBen10Mazter  (Talk -Blog -Contribs)  19:51, September 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * I already have a banner on my user page that says I'm an admin (and a user box, and a little icon up the top). But thanks for the offer. grunny &#64; wookieepedia :&#126;$ 21:09, September 20, 2011 (UTC)

Jjiaah Porpman
Thanks for your help with the Jjiaah Porpman article. I didn't remember how to get it redirected and goofed, so thanks for fixing it. I'll get it right next time.  Gethralkin  Hyperwave 19:52, September 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * No problem :-). grunny &#64; wookieepedia :&#126;$ 21:07, September 20, 2011 (UTC)

Web archive
Hello there. Yesterday I added links to external Lutin Hollis, Kol Kotha, and Vedd Deviss. They were for the web archive/wayback machine, and when clicked on, they redirect you to the wayback machine instead of the proper page, the defunct Star Wars: Battle for Naboo website. Should I leave them as is, or just put a link to the defunct page? Thanks. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 02:53, September 29, 2011 (UTC)

Tarpals
Hey Grunny. I just realized that I made a boo-boo and accidentally put a spoiler in the summary of this edit. Do you think you could use your awesome bureaucratic powers to hide the summary (and the edit, if necessary)? I can redo the edit if need be. Thanks!  CC7567  (talk) 04:07, October 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * Done. grunny &#64; wookieepedia :&#126;$ 05:14, October 1, 2011 (UTC)

Wikia staff
Hey Grunny! Just wanted to thank you for your quick response on that Battlefront Wiki thing. I appreciate your help. Cheers!-- Cal Jedi (Personal Comm Channel) 14:30, October 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * No problem :). Let me know if there are any other issues regarding it. Cheers, grunny &#64; wookieepedia :&#126;$ 01:07, October 5, 2011 (UTC)

Image Uploading
Hey Grunny, I was wondering if you could help me with an issue I've been having. Every time I try to load an image onto the site, it tells me that I've triggered an Image Abuse message. As far as I know, this shouldn't happen, since I've definitely done a "threshold" number of edits while at the same time almost never uploading any images before. If there's something I can do to solve this problem, please let me know, as there's a few images I'd like to upload or update for the site. Thanks!--Demos Traxen 18:35, October 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * Replied on your talk page. Cheers, grunny &#64; wookieepedia :&#126;$ 01:12, October 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you, that did indeed fix things. I appreciate the help!--Demos Traxen 03:34, October 5, 2011 (UTC)

Wedge Antilles redlinks
Hey, Grunny. I'm in the process of trying to save the Wedge Antilles FAN, and right now the biggest problem with it (other than a needed update) is the large number of redlinks. I've compiled a list of the current redlinks here; as you can see, there are some sources, namely games and comics, that I am unlikely to be able to gain access to myself. Your collection lists some of these sources. Would you be willing to help out in creating articles to fill in those which I've labeled with your username? If so, I would greatly appreciate it. This nomination has come too far and is too close to passing to allow it to fail now. I've also pinged for his help as well, both to spread the workload a bit and because he appears to have a source you don't. Thanks in advance for the help. :)  Master Jonathan &mdash; Jedi Council Chambers <sub style="margin-left:-11.75em;">Thursday, October 20, 2011, 00:02 UTC
 * Sure, I'll have a crack at some of them over the next few days :). Cheers, grunny &#64; wookieepedia :&#126;$ 08:44, October 20, 2011 (UTC)
