Hello AdmirableAckbar!
Hello and welcome to Wookieepedia!! About galleries, you have to create new page, where you put images about individuals in jabba's palace (and maybe text about them). It's easy. If you have any other problems, ask the administrators. I am not admin, but you can ask me too. DARTH SIDIOUS2 Discussion board 14:32, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

RE: How to make user sub page and how to upload pics
To make a sub page type "User:AdmirableAckbar/" followed by the name of the sub page into the search box at the side of the screen and hit go. When prompted click create to make the page. To upload pictures click the upload file link on the toolbox to the left, select the file you want to upload and make sure you fill in the information template in the summary. Also please check before uploading to make sure that it isn't a duplicate of an image we already have. Green Tentacle (Talk) 08:55, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wookieepedia!
Welcome to one of the best star wars sites! I always feel good when someone welcome's me, so I do the same for people. I hope you have a great time here. I realized when reading your page that you and I have the same birthday. I've only met one person who shares my exact birthday. That is cool. I would love to see some of your comics. They sound very interesting. You sound like you have quite a future ahead of you. If you have any questions just ask me or our wonderful staff. I'm new but I do know quite a bit about Star Wars. Happy editing! Anzati02 23:10, 12 June 2007 (UTC)


 * You are very welcome! And the answer to your question: Yes. will you post the comics on your userpage?Anzati02 18:43, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Comics
You said that you were going to get those comics. They don't sell them in stores any more. Is there an online store you buy at? I have been looking to get som comic dirt cheap. Ebay is the only place I can find them at a reasonable price. You might want to try there. Do you know of any other online stores? Anzati02 18:50, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

I'll look forward to it.Anzati02 18:55, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Lucky! The book stores around here only carry the latest comics. But Amazon is a great place to get comics. Plus, if you spend over $25 you get free shipping. In the Republic series I have Volume 3, 4, 6, & 9. I really want to get 5, 7 & 8. Anzati02 19:03, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks! Anzati02 21:06, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Ephant Mon
Hey AdmirableAckbar. With regards to Ephant Mon, I would love to help you out with sourcing and expanding it&mdash;but where I am based right now I only have a small number of my novels/TPBs/reference books with me, with the rest being back home. If I do come across anything (either from someone in the barracks, or at the local library) then I'll help out with the article any way I can. Cheers, Greyman ( Paratus ) 21:17, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Ephant Mon's Page
Nice job working on Ephant Mon! Once I get done sourcing the Jedi Order page, I'll come help you out with it. Now that it didn't pass the Inq., I'm shooting for a good article, where all I have to do now is source. Jediknight19bby 17:35, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Now that I see what you've done with Mon, I don't see anything to help out with. Leave it in the hands of the Inq., and, hopefully, sometime in July 2008, everyone on Wookieepedia will see Mon's face on the main page for a week. Jediknight19bby 17:51, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for voting on my article. I suppose you're right about Ducato and Greyman. I'll be sourcing tommorow on the Jedi Order page, you can too, if you want. Jediknight19bby 22:03, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

Request
Speaking for a large piece of Wookieepedia, I would like to say that you, as a user, are what are truly considered 'outstanding'. Because of this, I would like to ask your permission to nominate you as August's Wookieepedian of the Month. Please reply to this by June 30th, I'll be turning in your nomination, if you accept it, July 1st.
 * em...sure why not. i'm very flattered. you're welcome to nominate me if you wish, though i doubt i'll do all that well considering my short time here. AdmirableAckbar 22:57, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Not to worry. If you need me to, I can help you with Yaddle. Jediknight19bby 00:35, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
 * All Yaddle pics have been sourced. Jediknight19bby 18:36, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
 * cheers. i appreciate all your help. AdmirableAckbar 18:37, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

WOTM
You're only allowed to vote for one user as WOTM, and I see you voted for three. I already crossed out the latest one, but since your first two were done at the same time, I wasn't sure which you would like to keep. So please choose just one, and strike out the other. Thanks. -- Ozzel 23:08, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Bubo
Hey AdmirableAckbar, I just wanted to say good job on Bubo, and keep up the good work! For future GA & FA noms, don't be afraid to ask a user or two whom you trust (or an administrator), to take a look over the article before you nominate it. Doing this usually provides a faster route to getting those five votes once you do nominate it&mdash;especially since having a couple people proofread it, will take care of any future objections before hand :D. Anyways, keep up the good work, and I'm happy to see the effort that you're putting into articles such as Ephant Mon. :) Cheers, Greyman ( Paratus ) 19:47, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Re:Tsui Choi
No prob, I'll take a look over it and get back you. If you feel up to it, feel free to review Durrei. Greyman ( Paratus ) 20:46, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Hey, I finished expanding and whatnot on Tsui Choi, I'll put it up for GA on your behalf and get the ball rolling. Cheers,  Greyman ( Paratus ) 22:43, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * lol, nevermind. I see that you nom'd it already :P.   Greyman ( Paratus ) 22:45, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Hey AdmirableAckbar, I just wanted to let you know that Tsui Choi got GA and that I promoted it yesterday. Feel free to place the GA userbox on your userpage ;-), Cheers.  Greyman ( Paratus ) 15:52, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Death Star II
I know you're busy and all, but I wanted you to look over the Death Star II page. I deciided to take another shot at bringing an article to featured status. It's fully referenced, so look over it if you have time, and vote. Jediknight19bby 00:30, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Re:your opinion on some books/comics
I personally enjoyed them all&mdash;albiet, some better than others. Cloak was a novel in that it gives some good background to the the events which would come under the rise of Palpatine. Labyrinth was an excellent book&mdash;'nuff said. The Cestus Deception was good, I liked how it focuses a lot on the Clone Troopers and ARC. Dark R. was really good as well, Yoda was kinda comical in it. And Shatterpoint is one of my favorite SW novels&mdash;very dark. I hope that helps. Greyman ( Paratus ) 18:26, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I've been in and out of the barracks all day. I'll take a look at it tonight after dinner, and let you know.  Cheers,  Greyman ( Paratus ) 19:32, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Vote
There's a vote over on the Jedi Order talk page and I suggest you come ASAP and voice your opinion. Thanks, Jediknight19bby 19:44, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Re:Arcona
Hey AdmirableAckbar. I took a look over the Arcona article, and did some general cleanup and referencing. I think you picked a nice article to work on!:D

Anyways, I just have a couple of points about the article that I could see being a problem if you nominated it right now for GA: 1. I think that the intro should be expanded quite a bit, 2. With the amount of Appearances and Sources that are listed, the article could stand to be expanded quite a bit, and 3. There are two red links in the "See also" section that I think should be cleared up&mdash;that's more a personal preference rather than a requirement&hellip;the colour red in a GA or FA nom just screams ''OBJECT! OBJECT!''.

Now, I realize that you said that you have only a few sources and books currently available to you right now, but I do have a few suggestions that you can try (and that works really really well for me): 1. try downloading what you need. Download the program BitLord, and then visit sites like IsoHunt and btjunkie. Once you're in those sites, just search for Star Wars d20 or something similar and you'll be presented with a list of torrents that you can download in BitLord. Also, check out this link → Hungry Ewok &mdash; from there, you can download any or all the SW novels that have been published. You can even find some RPG sourcebooks and some other things ;), 2. If all else fails, try your local library&mdash;I know that my local library, back home, has a good selection of SW novels and whatnot.

Also, when I first starting writing GA's and FA's, I found it extremely helpful having a "sample" article that I could work off of. For Arcona, I recommend using Bouncer as an article template. One last thing&mdash;you wrote on my talk page that you had not yet been able to get referencing down pat yet. So, if you have any concerns about what or when to reference, or even how, check out this link → Sourcing. Anyways, if you have any questions about any of this stuff, you know where you can reach me. Cheers, Greyman ( Paratus ) 23:30, 25 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Hey again, was any of this stuff useful? Just curious to see if you ran into problems. Greyman ( Paratus ) 14:11, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Arcona looks good, nice job. Greyman ( Paratus ) 12:57, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Referencing
Kudos on your diligent work on Ephant Mon. However, the way you are sourcing is not quite right. If you have a look at the notes and references section at the moment, a number of them don't have names etc beside them. When referencing, the first appearance of the reference goes. Subsequent references for the same source is. I hope that helps. Rather than correcting it myself, I thought it might be better to let you try. Cheers. --Eyrezer 04:07, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

New Droid
I'm going to create a droid, which is a user controlled by a live user to help out with one particular thing. Mine is already a user- TC-14, I call her. I wanted to know if you could become her co-owner. She's gonna be all about sourcing articles, quotes, etc., and might even help us by voting for our noms and stuff. I didn't want to do all the technical stuff, so I was wondering if, when you got back, you could do that part. The whole thing can be found at the page User: Sikon/Pywikipedia.

Your requests
Per IRC:

Hey AdmirableAckbar, I looked over Chevin and Amani like you asked me to. I did some work on Yaddle a couple months ago, but haven't looked at it since...I'll try and do that tonight.

Chevin looks good, no obj's that I can remember.

Amani, if it's possible, needs to have the referenced material placed in the actual article, and then be referenced there. If it's not possible to do that, then that's cool :D. Also, although not a requirement, those redlinks should be cleared up. One last thing: The article appears too cluttered...maybe taking out a picture or two, and just keeping the best ones, would make it visually flow better. What do you think? Anything else, just let me know. Cheers, Greyman ( Paratus ) 15:38, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
