Militiagung stuff
Hey there, I just wanted to point out that per the sourcing policy, ref notes in the introduction are unnecessary. Happy editing! Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 13:28, June 12, 2012 (UTC)

U 'R' like Me
Hi Commander Code-8! Your profile sounds almost like I wrote it myself! you are so similar to me. I live in Australia too, in NSW, blue mountains to be exact. I just thought that I'd say hi, I haven't talked to anyone in agez. anyway, see ya! --Great Krayt Dragon (Comlink) 10:45, June 18, 2012 (UTC)

More militiagung stuff
You recently moved a page with the following explanation, "Militiagungs are the actual name for Gungan Warriors". Our page on Militiagung actually seems to imply that the term is an honorific for Gungan soldiers, that were in the Gungan Grand Army, and that not every brainwashed Gungan deserter with a heavy stick would be considered worthy of the title. But putting that aside, Unidentified Gungan warrior is the name provided by the source, not Unidentified Militiagung. If a james bond movie credits an actor as "creepy thug #3", we wouldn't move his page to "Villainous Uniformed Tech Lead." I'm going to ask an admin to undo your move, and whether or not the unmove is performed, I wanted you to know why. SinisterSamurai 08:00, June 20, 2012 (UTC)

Galactic Battlegrounds battle titles
Hi there, I saw that you changed the "confirm" templates to "Conjecture" templates on articles like the Reytha campaign. Just to check, what was your reason for doing so? The templates are there so we can find the proper titles for those articles. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 18:08, June 30, 2012 (UTC)

WP:VG one year anniversary
&mdash; Cal Jedi (Personal Comm Channel) 16:05, July 9, 2012 (UTC)
 * Welcome to the project. :) &mdash; Cal Jedi Infinite Empire.svg (Personal Comm Channel) 16:05, July 9, 2012 (UTC)
 * Hey, Code-8. Thanks for contributing to WP:VG. When you add articles to the articles needing creation section, though, can you please add which game they are from, like you did on one of them? That way, the other users can know whether they have access to the source, and can therefore perhaps create the articles easier. Thank you. Cheers.&mdash; Cal Jedi Infinite Empire.svg (Personal Comm Channel) 04:13, July 10, 2012 (UTC)

Re:I've replied
Please familiarize yourself with the message listed on the top of my talk page. Thanks,  JangFett  (Talk) 14:21, August 2, 2012 (UTC)

Answer
Basicaly, what separates a GAN from a CAN is it's length, not its noteworthiness. Anything under 250 words is a CAN, while GANs are 250 and greater. Right now, OOM is under 250 words, so he will be a CAN unless there is nothing else to add to him. Hope that helps, 501st  dogma ( talk ) 01:14, September 17, 2012 (UTC)

Your Welcome
No problem. If you want to archive noms in the future, step by step instructions are here. Hope you nom OOL-2 as a GAN soon. 501st dogma ( talk ) 23:26, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

Archiving Good Article Nominations
While we appreciate your efforts, please note that only AgriCorps members should archive successful GANs. While the CAN page allows for any user to archive successful nominations, both the GAN and FAN page are the preserve of the AC and the INQ. Thank you for your cooperation. - Cavalier One ( Squadron channel ) 09:53, October 8, 2012 (UTC)
 * No apologies necessary, really. I can understand the excitement. Even amongst the AC we tend to avoid archiving our own noms without consensus from other members in IRC. - Cavalier One FarStar.svg( Squadron channel ) 10:04, October 8, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Image
You can reupload the image with the same name, that's no problem. Just make sure to put in all its information this time. :P  Trak Nar  Ramble on 02:17, October 15, 2012 (UTC)

Vote counts
Hey Commander Code-8. When voting on FAN or GAN pages, please make sure to update the vote count as required. All users should be updating the vote counts themselves, not just the AgriCorps or the Inquisitorius; it saves time for others having to correct it. Thank you.

Galactic Battlegrounds
Whatup?! :P I've started a personal GB project myself (started a long time ago but made a page for recently) and you can find it here. I'm going to work my way through the currently incomplete list of articles with all or almost all GB sources (listed on that page). Feel free to join me. I love this game so much. lol Probably a childhood fav. MasterFred (Whatever) 17:23, October 26, 2012 (UTC)
 * Yep. I does. Any time you need me to check for something, feel free to drop me a message. :P MasterFred Commerce Guild.svg(Whatever) 21:29, October 26, 2012 (UTC)

LMW
I see you are a Christian. Perhaps you might be interested in a wiki I started a long time ago and am currently trying to restart. It's called LifeMusic Wiki and is dedicated to Christian music of all sorts. We'd love to have ya! MasterFred (Whatever) 19:28, November 7, 2012 (UTC)

Free tonight?
Hey, Commander. If you're free tonight, we'd love to have your input at the Mofference. If you need any help logging onto IRC, let me know. Hope to see you there! Menkooroo (talk) 12:17, November 10, 2012 (UTC)
 * Ahhhhhh you just missed it! It ended about half an hour ago. We'll make sure you catch the next one. :D Menkooroo (talk) 02:38, November 11, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Secrets of Naboo source request
Neither Otoh Mandassa or Umberbool City are mentioned in the book as far as I could tell. Oxon City was just pictured on a map and was refered to merely as "Oxon." Hope this helps.-- Exiled Jedi   (Greetings)  04:57, November 11, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Alaris Prime
No problem, glad to help. Let me know if you ever need any assistance with that kind of thing. :) Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 16:28, November 16, 2012 (UTC)

Operation Battlegrounds
I was wondering if I could have permission to edit your OB page from now on. I've noticed a few things on there that need to be changed (ie redlinks to articles I've already created under a different name). I think it would help keep us from crossing over and accidentally messing each other up. lol I won't edit much, but just enough to make sure we aren't working against each other without knowing. lol You can feel free to edit my page too. MasterFred (Whatever) 03:42, November 18, 2012 (UTC)

Re:Future uploads
Sure thing! If you need a screenshot, just shoot me a message! I'd be happy to upload one. lol MasterFred (Whatever) 17:20, November 22, 2012 (UTC)

Re:Uploads
I'll get those when I can. Bad Internet for now, but when I get the chance, I'll upload them. MasterFred (Whatever) 03:41, December 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm having troubles getting a shot of the pic with the Grand Army. I use a Mac and have Parallels, which I use to run Windows. This makes taking screenshots quickly difficult. I'll keep trying, though. :P MasterFred Commerce Guild.svg(Whatever) 19:32, December 20, 2012 (UTC)

Regarding articles
How exactly can I check that the articles are needed? I did create them from redlinks, but I'm pretty sure everyone has their own idea on what's needed and what's not. 78.97.91.207 11:20, December 23, 2012 (UTC)

Merry Christmas
Hey, just wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Supreme Emperor (talk) 04:06, December 26, 2012 (UTC)

Noms
I nommed Biel Ductavis for the GANs, if you would like to continue your review.&mdash; 00:14, December 27, 2012 (UTC)

In or around?
Hey, Code-8. Not too long ago, in Hantic's GAnom, I asked you for clarification on whether The Essential Atlas dated the War of the Gungan Tribes specifically to 3000 BBY, or just "around" 3000 BBY. You asserted "around," but Fred's asserting "in" on Tenko's GAnom. Do you think you could weigh in, or possibly let me know where in the Atlas it is so I can check myself? Thanks. Menkooroo (talk) 10:43, December 30, 2012 (UTC)
 * No worries. I just found the reference in the "Naboo" section of the Atlas, and it definitively says "in 3000 BBY." Be sure to change all of the "around"s to "in" in your recent Battlegrounds articles, in the articles themselves and the reference notes, too. Menkooroo (talk) 12:41, December 30, 2012 (UTC)

Wookieepedian of the Month
Congratulations on winning Wookieepedian of the Month for January 2013! &mdash;MJ&mdash; Jedi Council Chambers 03:45, January 1, 2013 (UTC)
 * Hey, thanks for your congratulations, really appreacate it.  Commander Code-8  To say hi, press 42 07:11, January 1, 2013 (UTC)


 * Congrats from me as well, Code-8! Good work all-around. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 03:48, January 1, 2013 (UTC)
 * Excellent work man! Here's hoping for more in the new year! Corellian Premier Jedi symbol.svg Force will be with you always 03:52, January 1, 2013 (UTC)
 * Congratulations!-- Exiled Jedi  Oldrepublic crest.svg (Greetings)  03:57, January 1, 2013 (UTC)
 * Congratulations, Code-8! You've been doing great things here and you definitely deserve this. If you're familiar with Wookieepedia NewsNet, which can be found about halfway down the right side of the Main Page, you'll know that the WOTM winners get interviewed every month, which then gets posted on the Main Page for the world to see. Are you interested in doing an interview? Let me know! I could ask you questions here, or through e-mail. Congrats again! Menkooroo (talk) 05:54, January 1, 2013 (UTC)
 * You're absolutely welcome. You definitely deserved it. Congratulations, and keep up the good work. :) &mdash; Cal Jedi Infinite Empire.svg (Personal Comm Channel) 19:57, January 2, 2013 (UTC)

Moving pages
Please don't rename pages by cutting and pasting the contents to the new title. Doing so leaves the edit history under the old title, thereby breaking the attribution required by our CC-BY-SA license. Use the MediaWiki move function to rename pages instead, as that function will move both the text and edit history. If you cannot use the move function for technical reasons, ask an administrator to perform the move for you. Thank you. &mdash;MJ&mdash; War Room 00:00, January 2, 2013 (UTC)
 * Whoops, sorry about that. I assumed it was okay since I was still leaving the old page as a disambiguation, but I was clearly wrong. Won't do it again.  Commander Code-8  To say hi, press 42 02:31, January 2, 2013 (UTC)

Gracias
Thanks man. I used to edit for a few other wikis like two years ago and then stopped. Just getting back into the hang of it all!

Congratulations
Hey, congratulations on being named Wookieepedian of the month. Supreme Emperor (talk) 03:45, January 3, 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the prod; I was being lazy. Feel free to answer these in as many or as few words as you'd like. And let me know if you want any images used in the interview! If not, I'll pick them myself, and I'll be evil about it. ... maniacal laugh. Maniacal laugh. Yeah, I'm scary. I know it. Menkooroo (talk) 10:36, January 3, 2013 (UTC)
 * 1) You're the Wookieepedian of the Month! And not just any month... the first month of 2013! Tell us how it feels.
 * 2) When did you start editing Wookieepedia? What inspired you to take such an active role in the community?
 * 3) Has CA, GA, and FA writing helped improve your writing skills? Why do you think it's so addicting?
 * 4) What aspect of editing do you enjoy the most? And on the flip side, what about the site would you change if you could?
 * 5) What kind of advice would you pass on to new and aspiring editors?
 * 6) You have your own personal project about Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds. Have you always been a big fan of the game?
 * 7) What are some of your other favorite Expanded Universe works, and which film is best?
 * 8) On the other end of the spectrum: Your least favorites. Go!
 * 9) What's the Star Wars fan community like in Australia? Is everything as readily available as it is in the US and Canada? Have you ever been to any conventions or anything?
 * 10) What role does Wookieepedia play in the broader Star Wars community?
 * 11) What do you think the future holds for Star Wars... and, consequently, for Wookieepedia?
 * 12) Any other thoughts you'd like to share?
 * Hello there! I've just published the interview. The RSS feed on the Main Page should update within the next few days, and then your interview will be there for all the world to see! Menkooroo (talk) 14:02, January 7, 2013 (UTC)

Snoova
Hey, CC8. I've finally had a chance to update the Snoova article with the information you gave me about Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds. Thanks again, and please let me know if you think anything else deserves mention. ~ Savage  14:52, January 3, 2013 (UTC)

Thank you
Hey, Code-8. I just wanted to say thank you very much for your support on the RFB nomination. You're doing a great job on the article nomination process. Keep up the good work. :) Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 06:03, January 11, 2013 (UTC)

In the News
Hey! Anyone is actually free to update Wookieenews. If you want to go for it, make sure to update both Wookieenews and Template:Wookieenews, and to remove the bottom-most item on the latter in order to keep it at six. Menkooroo (talk) 10:23, January 13, 2013 (UTC)

Skirmish in Cuipernam
Hey, just wondered if I could get you to take a quick look at your objections on the First Skirmish in Cuipernam ga nom. Thanks, Supreme Emperor (talk) 02:10, January 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * Quick question, would you mind if I moved your current objections to a new section under the ones i've fixed? Thanks, Supreme Emperor (talk) 03:02, January 21, 2013 (UTC)

Attichitcuk in "Galactic Battlegrounds"
Hi CC-8! There is something I'd like to ask of you. Since you seem to be our in-house expert in Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds, could you please check my recent developments of the Attichitcuk article and see if I haven't made any mistake or missed anything. If you ever a moment to check, that would be nice&mdash;provided you'll let me return the favour, of course. --LelalMekha (talk) 12:58, January 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the tip. I've got to admit the article does look a bit messy for the time being, but it's still a work in progress, and there's plenty of room for improvement! I shall take account of your remarks and keep working. --LelalMekha (talk) 23:26, January 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh, by the way, if the game does say that Itchy hadn't seen Chewbacca for a while at the time of the Vor'Na'Tu mission, it kinda contradicts The Wookiee Storybook. That children's book was meant to take place in 0 BBY, while the Vor'Na'Tu campaign happens in 0.5 ABY. Is that last date correct? --LelalMekha (talk) 23:49, January 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * That sounds like a continuity error at any rate, since Itchy met Han Solo during the time span of the novel Rebel Dawn, whic takes place between 2 BBY and 0 BBY. That means Itchy already knew his son was free at the time... Weird. What is also weird is that Leia calls Itchy "an old friend." I can't imagine where (and when) she knew him from. --LelalMekha (talk) 00:07, January 22, 2013 (UTC)

"Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds: Prima's Official Strategy Guide"
Hello CC-8. Although I already asked Corellian Premier about it, I'll try and double my chances: don't you own Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds: Prima's Official Strategy Guide, peradventure? --LelalMekha (talk) 21:46, February 3, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks
Hey, wanted to say thanks for all the help you've been giving me with my first nom. I really appreciate it. Supreme Emperor (talk) 03:15, February 5, 2013 (UTC)

FAN page reviewing
Hey, Code-8,

I'm writing this to you on behalf of the entire Inquisitorius. At our recent meeting, we discussed the current lack of non-INQs who are actively involved in reviewing on the FAN page, and we decided that the best solution was to simply appeal to people to review more. This first paragraph is being sent verbatim to a whole bunch of people, but the following one is being written specifically for you.

You've been showing some fantastic reviewing skills lately, and I want to thank you for bringing them to the FAN page. I want to encourage you to keep it up&mdash;in this, the INQ's quest to kick-start the somewhat-stagnant FAN page, we'd love to have you keep doing what you're doing. Cheers, and have a great day! Menkooroo (talk) 07:17, February 11, 2013 (UTC)

Four GANs
Heya. No need to apologize. :D It's rule #6 under the "How to nominate" section at the top of the GAN page. Menkooroo (talk) 05:08, February 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh! You're right. I missed that bit of info, apparently. Thanks for the heads up.  Stake black   msg 12:50, February 17, 2013 (UTC)

Cuipernam
Hey, could you take a look at the few objections you have left for First Skirmish in Cuipernam? I think i've got them all fixed now. Thanks, Supreme Emperor (talk) 13:14, February 20, 2013 (UTC)

GAN
Hey, Code-8. Just a heads up that you still have an outstanding objection on the "Bounty 239" GAN that has been there for over a week now. If you could, we'd appreciate if you could take a look at it when you have a moment. Otherwise, it will likely be stricken by the AgriCorps. Thanks. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 18:32, February 25, 2013 (UTC)

CT change
Hey, Code-8. Letting you know since you've already voted on Forum:CT:OOU Layout Guide: Published narrative works: Per discussion with Cade and Naru, a Gameplay section has been added specifically for video games. Take a look. Menkooroo (talk) 18:44, February 27, 2013 (UTC)
 * Another change: Per the discussion section, "Cast" has been changed to "Credits" and will now include crewmembers as well. Menkooroo (talk) 04:28, March 10, 2013 (UTC)
 * The next change is an aesthetic one about image alignment in the "Main characters" section. Take a look. Menkooroo (talk) 04:04, March 17, 2013 (UTC)

Hey CC-8, I wanted to know if you could pass through the IRC tomorrow, there's one thing we need to talk about :p. Let me know if you're not available for tomorrow. Winterz (talk) 04:01, March 1, 2013 (UTC)

Hello, you have an old outstanding objection to this FAN. Please review it and strike accordingly. Cheers, 1358  (Talk)  23:50, March 1, 2013 (UTC)

Work is a bit busy at the moment, which is why I haven't chimed in at Forum:SH:1000+ GA list yet; I couldn't realistically address objections in a reasonable timeframe.

Re:GAs and Galactic Battlegrounds
Hey Commander Code-8! Thank you for bringing those to my attention. I'm totally willing to bring those few articles to FA status, but I think we'll have to wait a little for that, since there are currently 46 FA nominations. I guess we should wait for the list to be less clogged before adding any new noms. As far as Galactic Battlegrounds is concerned, I can do that for you if you can wait one day or two (I'm still staying on campus and won't be home before tomorrow). Cheers. --LelalMekha (talk) 17:12, March 28, 2013 (UTC)
 * Here come the resquested screencaps: hereand here. Feel free to ask again if those do not fit your needs. --LelalMekha (talk) 20:36, March 29, 2013 (UTC)
 * Well, that's odd. Let me check again. --LelalMekha (talk) 22:48, March 31, 2013 (UTC)
 * In my game, the eight available colors are listed as blue, red, green, yellow, cyan, purple, gray, orange. And in fact, it does fit what you see in my screencap: if you look carefully, what you mistook for black is indeed green, and cyan is there too. --LelalMekha (talk) 22:54, March 31, 2013 (UTC)
