Creation of new page/Help
I see you're a very active member here, and I'm still trying to learn how to work my way around the wiki. I read the Sourcing page but I still feel as if I don't really get how to properly reference and use a reference list.

I'm trying to create the page: Amon based off of the Ordu Aspectu page (Inside "Members" category) but I'm not sure how I would reference Doctor Aphra 2: Book I, Part II. Mind giving me some pointers? --RyanCwab (talk) 02:48, February 4, 2017 (UTC) Amon was a Human Male who was a member of the Ordu Aspectu. He died during the Doom of the Ordu Aspectu, which occurred thousands of years before the Battle of Yavin. == Appearances == * Doctor Aphra 2: Book I, Part II
 * My best advice is when you look at Sourcing would be to copy the really long reference but replace all the Episode 4 stuff with Doctor Aphra 2, I hope that that makes sense to you! It is hard to explain but if you make the page to the best of your abilities then I can fix the references if necessary --Lewisr (talk) 02:57, February 4, 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm also still very new to talk pages so I may not be responding correctly but here goes. Your advice was fantastic I can see now why you said that it was hard to explain! Anyways, I tried to create the page but I was given the "Your modification was aborted by an extension hook," am I doing something wrong? Are only a certain amount of people allowed to do large edits? --RyanCwab (talk) 03:30, February 4, 2017 (UTC)
 * Nope you're responding perfectly fine no worries! Haha yes it was a bit! Hmm I'm not really all too sure what the problem is, I don't think there is a restriction on what edits people can make when creating pages, you should take a look through it again and make sure everything is okay then try submit it again --Lewisr (talk) 03:35, February 4, 2017 (UTC)
 * That's interesting I don't know where I went wrong but these are the steps I went through in order, hopefully you can identify the problem: To start, I created the reference < ref name="Doctor Aphra 2">Doctor Aphra 2: Book I, Part II then I used the ref name next to all the wiki links that related to that reference. After that, I used the "reflist" template and under the "I" section I put down < ref name="Doctor Aphra 2">Doctor Aphra 2: Book I, Part II . Was there something wrong with this process? If so what? I dunno what to try as the only response I get is that my modification was aborted by an extension hook. Sorry for all the trouble by the way, I'm just determined to learn how to operate the wiki haha. --RyanCwab (talk) 04:46, February 4, 2017 (UTC)
 * Hmmm I'm completely lost as to why its not working for you to be honest! Can I ask a favour? Would you be able to post what you've done in your reply and I can take a look at it and hopefully get it resolved for you, then when I figure it out I can let you know! I only ask this because I'm about to head off for a while and I don't want you to lose all what you've done in case you're going off soon too, btw it's no trouble at all! Always happen to help out when I can --Lewisr (talk) 05:00, February 4, 2017 (UTC)
 * This is everything that I could garner from the source editor of the editing page, truthfully I don't know exactly what you meant when you asked me to post what I've done but hopefully this works.
 * Sorry I should have been more clearer with what I meant, so I managed to get it made and I believe the problem was that you included a reference inside of the reflist, generally you would just put ==Notes and references== and then the Reflist underneath and then that's all. A couple of other things as well, when you make an infobox you should copy all of the table not just the ones you're using, even if they're going to be blank its still worth adding the others and also when creating a canon page you should add " " at the top of the page --Lewisr (talk) 12:25, February 4, 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you so much for your help! I can tell what I did wrong, I'm really starting to get better at editing the wiki.
 * Glad to be of help, good to hear you're getting the hang of things now! If you need any help in the future then feel free to message me again, btw make sure when you post comments you sign them by using 4 ~'s or using the signature button! --Lewisr (talk) 18:12, February 4, 2017 (UTC)

Revert of edit
I did not without reason empty the duplicate stub YT-1000_freighter.

A IP-only-user, a page empty was all the reason, no? He did`n read the summary, looked the stub over or did simply not care? Years in this wiki of adding/polishing text, correcting typos or from time to time deleting stupid duplicates. Only to get it careless undone. Again. It was the LAST time.

The last straw. I am out. Congrats. --84.155.204.246 04:03, February 6, 2017 (UTC)
 * I don't really understand what you're trying to say, but you blanked a legitimate page hence why I reverted your edit. --Lewisr (talk) 04:07, February 6, 2017 (UTC)

Rebel Rising
On the Rebel Rising page, I added my new image in the Bibliography. The source was an official post on StarWwars.com. How is that not a "sourced" image? What do I need to do to avoid an edit war with you? The Ultimate Dude (talk) 19:44, February 17, 2017 (UTC)
 * You need to actually source the image itself, by adding the template in this link onto the image page and filling it out --Lewisr (talk) 19:49, February 17, 2017 (UTC)

R1
I am Wabble33. Sorry I danaged the article, I was oonly trying to remove non-canon info from lego star wars. I left the lego stuff in the behind the sscenes section.
 * Hey! No worries I assumed it wasn't intentionally to damage it, I think it is Canon info in this instance although I am not entirely sure, my best recommendation is too bring it up on the talk page for the article! By the way please remember to sign your posts with either 4 ~'s or using the signature button --Lewisr (talk) 00:05, February 20, 2017 (UTC)

Request

 * Hey man, could you help with the guy on the Star Wars: Absolutely Everything You Need to Know page of why the book is not marked as full canon on the top page. Thanks --DarthRuiz30 (talk) 06:15, February 20, 2017 (UTC)
 * Forget it :) --DarthRuiz30 (talk) 06:16, February 20, 2017 (UTC)
 * I was going to suggest bringing it up on the talk page rather than an edit war occur anyways :P But at least it seems to be resolved --Lewisr (talk) 06:19, February 20, 2017 (UTC)

Atlas
Hello, Lewisr. May I ask if you have a copy of The Essential Atlas? Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 10:22, February 20, 2017 (UTC)
 * Sort of. There's something I was hoping to check against the UK printing of the book, which is why I was hoping you might have one. Thanks anyway. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 10:28, February 20, 2017 (UTC)

Dat Bith doe
Thanks for the lookout.&mdash; 19:53, February 20, 2017 (UTC)
 * No problem! --Lewisr (talk) 19:56, February 20, 2017 (UTC)

Here's a little something...
Allow me to award you, Lewisr, with a small token of my appreciation for your hard, monotonous work on many, many articles and for making people genuinely believe you are a bot. :P  Imperators II (Talk) 14:02, February 21, 2017 (UTC)

Tristan Wren
Hey! Tristan Wren's homeworld was Mandalore. It even says he's a Mandalorian in the article. I rest my case and I'm going to edit it back.

--FuriousFire12 (talk) 01:55, April 12, 2017 (UTC)FuriousFire12
 * Unless you can provide a source that says his homeworld was Mandalore it'll be removed. Satine was a Mandalorian and her homeworld was Kalevala, so being a Mandalorian doesn't automatically mean you are from Mandalore --Lewisr (talk) 01:59, April 12, 2017 (UTC)

Starkiller Base
I am wondering why you deleted my contribution to the starkiller base page. I thought the volume and surface area was very important.


 * Hey, I removed it because you did not add a source to confirm this, if you add information you need to add a canon source along with it. --Lewisr (talk) 15:54, April 27, 2017 (UTC)

Freemaker Season 2 episodes
Hi there,

Why did you delete the appearance lists for the LEGO Star Wars: The Freemaker Adventures Season Two short films? I am still in the process of working on those articles. I plan to finish them over the weekend. I just had to stop because it was midnight in New Zealand and I was getting sleepy. Andykatib 22:32, May 5, 2017 (UTC)
 * No worries, thanks for the explanation. Will get to them later. Kind regards. Andykatib 22:38, May 5, 2017 (UTC)

Ray shields
Ok. I edited ray shields. Why did you delete the part I edited.
 * Hey, I removed your information because it was not sourced to anything, feel free to add it back but please add a source --Lewisr (talk) 22:32, May 6, 2017 (UTC)

Re:Panaka
Done.  Imperators II (Talk) 13:45, May 14, 2017 (UTC)

Slavin
Hey there. I noticed you have been editing the articles "Through Imperial Eyes" and "Slavin". I assure you that you do not need to keep deleting my edits because I have watched the episode many times and Captain Slavin appears in the episode along side Commander From Titus and Captain Brunson.

Thank you--ExplodinTBone (talk) 16:32, May 14, 2017 (UTC)
 * It is not Slavin, if you checked the link I showed you on your talk page you would realize it's a different person --Lewisr (talk) 16:33, May 14, 2017 (UTC)

Ok, sorry about that.

--ExplodinTBone (talk) 16:38, May 14, 2017 (UTC)
 * No worries no harm done, I see why you would think it is Slavin though --Lewisr (talk) 16:39, May 14, 2017 (UTC)

Fact file 106
Regarding http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/The_Official_Star_Wars_Fact_File_Part_106

I keep consistently receiving verify notices saying that there is no proof, but I have provided all the information and sources, using previous pages of the same magazine series as a reference. With all due respect, what am I doing wrong?

EctoBiology-department (talk) 02:55, May 15, 2017 (UTC)EctoBiology-department
 * If you checked your talk page you'd notice I already left you a message, but you have not added a external source to confirm that it actually exists, though I don't doubt you it still needs to be sourced to something --Lewisr (talk) 02:57, May 15, 2017 (UTC)

May I have help putting a source for the article? I presume it is the same as the other issues, but I am struggling to find it. Thanks

EctoBiology-department (talk) 02:59, May 15, 2017 (UTC)Ectobiology-department
 * If you can provide the source then I can help you out! If you check the other fact file pages and check the external links then that may help --Lewisr (talk) 03:02, May 15, 2017 (UTC)

I'm not sure where to find the external links, but I do have the link to the store where the issue is sold https://shop.deagostini.co.uk/star-wars-fact-file-issue-116.html, I can't find anything on the other fact file pages.
 * The other pages use that as a source so that should be fine to use, I'm just about to head off for a bit so if you add that link to the page then you should be okay to remove the verify tag and I xan clean it up when I get back on --Lewisr (talk) 03:14, May 15, 2017 (UTC)

Thank you and sorry for the hassle!

EctoBiology-department (talk) 03:21, May 15, 2017 (UTC)Ectobiology-department
 * Don't be sorry! Its no hassle at all, always happy to help --Lewisr (talk) 03:24, May 15, 2017 (UTC)

Bo-Katan
What the hell? Bo-Katan new Mandalore and to the point!!
 * No source says she's the new Mand'alor just yet, best to wait until the episodes air before we add it to the page --Lewisr (talk) 11:38, May 15, 2017 (UTC)

Hey Lewisr I need help on the Character Dral. I accidently mested up.

Thanks!!!

Hey Lewisr how do you add a source?

Thanks!!!

Vitiate
Hi! You reverted my edit on Vitiate's page. The reason for my edit was that the original sentence is easy to misunderstand:

"However, the 2012 novel Darth Plagueis reveals that the Sith Emperor did in fact die a final time at some point before the book's events, 3,600 years after the events of The Old Republic."

I've seen multiple people on youtube videos citing this sentence falsely as a proof that Vitiate died 3600 years after TOR. I've also seen it on reddit: see (second comment)

Would it be okay if I change it back to my version? I think it would be easier to understand that way. --Knight48 (talk) 01:35, May 16, 2017 (UTC)

Links
How do you add in links to notes and references? According to my recent edits that you undid, I forgot to add in this link to the end of the sentences: https://www.retrozap.com/the-origin-of-lukes-green-lightsaber/
 * You would need to add it as a source in the sources section, however you cannot add that link as that is a speculation/theory and we do not add speculations or theories to the pages --Lewisr (talk) 22:55, May 17, 2017 (UTC)

According to my information that you removed, I did not first read about it from that website. I am an enormous Star Wars fan and I know just about anything. After losing his first lightsaber in Cloud City on Bespin, Luke Skywalker returned to Obi-Wan (Ben) Kenobi's abandoned hut on Tatooine to build a new lightsaber. There he found a manual and spare lightsaber parts. And you know where he got the green Kyber crystal from? Qui-Gon Jinn's lightsaber in the storage trunk. Obi-Wan Kenobi held onto his master's lightsaber after using it to defeat Darth Maul on Naboo. I just know this because for one, there were no crystal caves on Tatooine, two, if Kenobi had to leave a green Kyber crystal somewhere, then it would have to be in his master's lightsaber.
 * We do not know how Luke came into possession of a green kyber crystal, perhaps it was Qui-Gon's but until a canon source says it then we cannot add it --Lewisr (talk) 01:39, May 18, 2017 (UTC)

Did you mean that if a canon source says so, then it can be added, and if a canon doesn't say anything, then it can't be added.
 * Yes that is what I mean! --Lewisr (talk) 01:56, May 18, 2017 (UTC)

Wasn't the pit he fell in the Thermal Oscillator or something? That place is explosive, and if he fell in it, then he must have exploded, and then for various reasons, Starkiller Base exploded.
 * It would be better to say he exploded with Starkiller Base or something, btw please sign your posts with the signature button --Lewisr (talk) 02:10, May 18, 2017 (UTC)

I think maybe it's good the way it was before I started editing it and you having to undo it. Han Solo was killed and murdered by his son, and then fell to the rest of his death in the pit below, but I don't like to refer to it as the destruction of Starkiller Base killing him, because it reminds me of the death of Chewbacca in the Expanded Universe aka Star Wars Legends. --John Reed Whisnant 03:06, May 18, 2017 (UTC)Retro Reed

Help
I sorry that I need help editing and I need help. But this may be the last time asking you because I don't really anoied with me. Can you edit Chankin for me I messed up again. {Jpercy}
 * I will when I can back home, I'm currently out right now, one thing I will ask is if you can't create pages properly that you reframe from making them, I'm not annoyed with you just wish you'd do things properly --Lewisr (talk) 22:37, May 18, 2017 (UTC)

Thrawn
Hi. Kanauer Corporation is mentioned in the 2017 book 'Thrawn'. I tried to update the 'Sources' part of the Kanauer Corporation page, but it keeps getting deleted and it has this username as the remover? It is mentioned on page 384 so it is legitimate. Cheers, Paul ObiWanKnauer (talk) 00:08, May 20, 2017 (UTC)ObiWanKnauer
 * Thrawn is a canon novel and that was a legends page you added it on so that's why I removed it --Lewisr (talk) 00:10, May 20, 2017 (UTC)

Images
Just a question, for example the Nebulon or the GR images are from legends or BTS books but still is the same ship/prop used that counts as canon or legends? Since the one for the dornean ship comes from the same source like the ones mentioned before. Thanks --DarthRuiz30 (talk) 19:05, May 20, 2017 (UTC)
 * If the others are from the same source then it looks like it's okay to add it, I was not aware those were so apologies for taking the image out. Unless there is something in a more canon source that is better than I guess it'll do --Lewisr (talk) 19:13, May 20, 2017 (UTC)

Midi-chlorian Page
I'm not sure I understand the logic or reasoning behind removing the link to Darth Vader on the Midi-chlorian page and instead having it go to just the Darth page and leaving Vader to go nowhere. Doesn't make much sense to me.--Gphoenix51 (talk) 04:49, May 21, 2017 (UTC)
 * Because when you linked Darth Vader it redirects to Anakin Skywalker, which is already linked on the page so it doesn't need to be linked again --Lewisr (talk) 10:50, May 21, 2017 (UTC)

Trench
Hey again, I recently added information to Trench's biography but it was removed because it was seen as speculative/unverified. However, I did use one of the sources as a reference (The Official Fact File Part 106, which I created solely to use as a source and reference) and used key phrases from the source such as "top-of-the-line" and "to ensure his quick return to sevice." I might be missing something else, but I was hoping for clarification and maybe some assistance on how I can properly add that information appropriately.

EctoBiology-department (talk) 01:11, May 23, 2017 (UTC)Ectobiology-department
 * Hey! It was more of the last part that was unsourced and I probably should've left the first part. but if you could source the last part of then it's fine. Does it all come from the fact file? --Lewisr (talk) 01:13, May 23, 2017 (UTC)

Yep! All from the Fact File. "It's true, all of it." as Han would say. (By now I've already squeezed every detail regarding Trench from that source.)

EctoBiology-department (talk) 04:45, May 23, 2017 (UTC)Ectobiology-department
 * If you add the fact file source at the end of the paragraph then that should be fine! --Lewisr (talk) 10:41, May 23, 2017 (UTC)

Anakin Skywalker
You really think so? I remember when Anakin Skywalker was a Youngling in TPM, a Padawan in AOTC, and a Jedi Knight in the Clone Wars, but he was Ahsoka Tano's master during the Clone Wars, and wasn't he a Jedi Master at the end of the Clone Wars in ROTS before he turned to the dark side and became Darth Vader? --John Reed Whisnant 13:26, May 23, 2017 (UTC)Retro Reed I'm sorry sir. How could he not be a Jedi Master since he was Ahsoka Tano's master? Were there any other Jedi Knights besides him that never became Jedi Masters?--John Reed Whisnant 13:34, May 23, 2017 (UTC)Retro Reed All right. Now I see. I'm sorry sir. My mistake.--Retro Reed All right now.--Retro Reed
 * He was never a Jedi Master, he wasn't given the rank of Master by the Council so unless some other source says it then you can't add Anakin to the Jedi Master page sorry. --Lewisr (talk) 13:29, May 23, 2017 (UTC)
 * That isn't how it works, Obi-Wan was knighted to Jedi Knight in TPM and took Anakin as his apprentice, he didn't become a Master until the Clone Wars so just because you have an apprentice doesn't automatically make you a Jedi Master --Lewisr (talk) 13:42, May 23, 2017 (UTC)
 * Hey don't apologise it's okay, I see why you would think he was one but ROTS was very clear in that he wasn't one --Lewisr (talk) 13:46, May 23, 2017 (UTC)

Copying and Pasting Links to Lists of Appearances with Perfect Alignment on Pages
How do I copy and paste a link onto a page with perfect alignment? I copied a link and pasted it in the list of appearances, but it was in plain text, not as a link, and it was indented right away from the links above, so I had to discard the edits. Thank you, --Retro Reed
 * If you add 2 [ before the text then 2 ] after then it should work, hope that makes sense --Lewisr (talk) 15:58, May 25, 2017 (UTC)

This is actually on Luke Skywalker's Green Lightsaber page. --Retro Reed
 * What are you trying to copy? --Lewisr (talk) 16:08, May 25, 2017 (UTC)

Star Wars: Episode VIII The Last Jedi --Retro Reed
 * And what source says it appears? As far as I'm aware none have confirmed it--Lewisr (talk) 22:00, May 25, 2017 (UTC)

There is no source. I have always been wanting to know the answer to this question ever since George Lucas sold Star Wars to Disney and new movies were coming, but I think it is VERY LIKELY that it will return. It didn't in TFA. He might let Finn or Rey keep his father's lightsaber. Nothing happened to it in the comic after ROTJ, right? I just hope it happens. Ever since I've known Luke Skywalker have that new green lightsaber in ROTJ, and I still have the retro toy/collectible that I had when I was a kid, I always thought that it would be VERY, VERY, LIKELY to return in the Sequel Trilogy. Things that I've recently edited, which you had to undo because they didn't have any sources, I just feel very positive about because I'm from the retro age (since October 8, 1996), and I know and remember everything ever since I was just a little boy. --Retro Reed
 * It is possible that his lightsaber will appear in the sequel trilogy, the last time we saw his green saber was in Shattered Empire issue 4. In regards to his father's its already been confirmed just today by Pablo Hidalgo that they consider the lightsaber to be officially Rey's so Rey will be keeping it for the time being --Lewisr (talk) 22:20, May 25, 2017 (UTC)

Yes, of course, I know it all, but if nothing happened to his second lightsaber in SE #4 comic, and Rey is keeping his first lightsaber, then it must return in the sequel trilogy. Right? --Retro Reed
 * Unless something happened to it between Shattered Empire 4 and the Last Jedi then it could well appear --Lewisr (talk) 22:30, May 25, 2017 (UTC)

All right. Perfect response. Btw are you an administrator or something?
 * No I am not an administrator! --Lewisr (talk) 22:35, May 25, 2017 (UTC)

Gee I'm sorry. No need to yell at me. What are you?
