It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from an article. Please be careful not to remove content from Wookieepedia without a valid reason, which you should specify in the edit summary or on the article's talk page. Thank you.

Tense
Allow me to point out that all In-Universe articles should be written in past tense. For example: this-and-this was something, not is. Instructions can be found from the Manual of Style.--Dionne Jinn (Something to say?) 19:25, June 28, 2013 (UTC)
 * Also let me advise you against just copy and pasting from the source. That is a copyright violation. You need to rephrase and put the information in your own words. Thanks. <- Omicron (Leave a message at the BEEP! ) 19:29, June 28, 2013 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the help. I will do my best to conform to these practices. If more correction is needed, please let me know. I'm new at this.--Richterbelmont10 (talk) 19:39, June 28, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Changes to Species
Hello Richterbelmont10. I reverted your edit because you didn't put the "See also" section in the right place. According to the Manual of Style, this section must be placed before "External links" and not "Behind the scenes". Moreover, I've never seen "See also" being used for links to categories. I asked about my revert to an administrator, User:Eyrezer, who confirmed that it had been the right thing to do. And sorry for not explaining my reasons in the edit summary. You're right, I should've done that in the first place.--LennyF (talk) 10:33, June 29, 2013 (UTC)
 * You're not wrong, it's not always easy to find what you're looking for. You could ask one of the administrators to help you out. That's all I can tell you. Cheers.--LennyF (talk) 16:20, June 29, 2013 (UTC)

Fibercord
Typically the information from one article, in this case fiber cord is input into the article it's being merged to, fibercord. I'm working on that as we speak, so if you could avoid editing for a bit, we can avoid edit conflicts. Trip391 (talk) 02:36, July 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * Sounds good.--Richterbelmont10 (talk) 02:41, July 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * Merge complete. Trip391 (talk) 03:16, July 15, 2013 (UTC)

Bifurcating cyclical-ignition
Bifurcating cyclical-igniton...If the modification process is there, should it be summarized or described at all in the article? I forgot about messing with articles and talk pages generally, but the question was not if the modification existed, or where. It was how do you build the modification. It says Kit Fisto put the how-to-do-it in the Great Holocron.99.188.36.80 20:26, July 17, 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for lending answers
I am grateful for answering my question on the Bifurcating ignition-pulse modification to lightsabers. Again...We are back to glitterstim. Inside joke. The details on how something works are left out. Based from the terms used to describe the modification, I'd guess it had something to do with causing a double-stroke pattern of ignitions pulsing up the blade, keeping it lit and strong against the water. It would mean it could not be overpowered, I'm supposing. Don't quote me...this is speculation...And that means hush, hush. Right? Well, thanks for telling me no one has cracked open that little piece of tech to see the details. Perhaps one day we will have the right answer. Have a good day.

Pressure Grip list
Hey, sorry it took so long to get back to you. I removed the list of notable users because categories are preferred over lists. Supreme Emperor (talk) 14:52, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * There probably should be a category, the other reason I removed the list was because it was unsourced. Supreme Emperor (talk) 15:27, July 19, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Vibro-ax Melee weapon category
Because vibroweapons is a subcat of melee weapons. Trip391 (talk) 17:46, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * Makes sense. That's why when you click on the melee weapons category, vibroweapons shows up as a subcat. Vibro-ax is a subcat of vibroweapons. Trip391 (talk) 17:54, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * I know what you're saying, but having everything listed there can overpopulate the category. That's why subcats exist. Trip391 (talk) 18:10, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * Then the answer is no. Vibro-ax is a subcat of vibroweapons, which is a subcat of melee weapons. It's redundant to have vibro-ax in the melee weapon category, then in a subcat of melee weapon, ie vibroweapon. And thanks for pointing out that error, it's been fixed. Trip391 (talk) 18:20, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * Per this consensus, all categories possible are listed. &mdash; Gethralkin  Hyperwave 18:42, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * Actually, if you look in the layout guide: "Articles placed in categories should not also be placed in that category's master category; for example, articles in Category:Aquatic sentient species should not also be placed in Category:Sentient species." Trip391 (talk) 18:44, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm confused. Are you saying that any item that's listed in a subcategory cannot be listed in the master category? What about duplicates in subcategories? For example, why is vibro-ax in Category:Edged weapons, Category:Vibro-axes, and Category:vibroweapons. All these categories are sub-categories of Category:Melee weapons. Isn't that also redundant?--Richterbelmont10 (talk) 19:40, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * Vibro-ax is also in the vibro-ax category because it's the master item for that category. Trip391 (talk) 19:44, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * Does this mean you are going to remove all Edged Weapons, Blunt Weapons, and Whips from Category:Melee weapons?--Richterbelmont10 (talk) 20:00, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * If they're found, then yea, they're not supposed to be there in the first place. Trip391 (talk) 20:03, July 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * If you like, I can help recategorize. But I see you and Gethralkin working on them now.--Richterbelmont10 (talk) 20:12, July 19, 2013 (UTC)

"What is this" in talk pages
Hey Richter, I see that you're correcting weapons categories. While that's fine, please be sure to properly look at the article (and if you can, the source) before creating talk pages and asking what the weapon is. In the case of Pain pulser, there's no image of it, and TCW only mentioned it. Try to look out for these clues in other articles. I hope you see what I mean. Thanks,  JangFett  (Talk) 01:33, July 24, 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm trying. I don't always have the source to look at. When I do, I spend time looking through the book trying to find mention of the weapon, but many times I can't find it. It's hard with no page numbers to go by. That's why I make a talk page and hope someone else can help. Anyway, in what category should I put the Pain pulser?--Richterbelmont10 (talk) 01:39, July 24, 2013 (UTC)
 * Here's an example of what I'm talking about: In Particle beam cannon article, it lists The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia in its sources. However, when I look at Volume 3 of the Encyclopedia, there is no entry called "Particle beam cannon" or even "Particle beam." There's "Particle shielding" and "Particle vapor trail." So I don't know where else to look in the Encyclopedia. I've had similar problems with other articles where I search the source and can't find the subject anywhere.--Richterbelmont10 (talk) 01:53, July 24, 2013 (UTC)

CT
Hey, I'm proposing that the Layout Guide CT be expanded to include technology; please give your input on the CT. Cade    Calrayn  02:23, July 24, 2013 (UTC)

Ziss-fly
Actually... it's not a weapon at all, it's likely a bug. Thanks for bringing my attention to it, I had misread the first time. Cheers.  Stake black   msg 18:04, July 24, 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't own the book, I created Oowor based on CUSWE, which is now dead, unfortunately. Sorry.  Stake black   msg 18:36, July 24, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Hammer (Z-6 rotary blaster cannon)
It probably should be, there are a few other blaster cannons in the category that are portable as well.-- Exiled Jedi   (Greetings)  22:13, July 24, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Corso Riggs's weapons
Hmmm, now that I think about it, I can't think of seeing any other categories like that. I think that Cade created the category. I just added some articles in.-- Exiled Jedi   (Greetings)  04:03, September 24, 2013 (UTC)

Re: IRC ban
Hey. You were apparently caught in an old ban. I've removed it now. Cheers, 1358  (Talk)  19:49, April 10, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Image retouching
Hi! In fact, I didn't use any program to retouch the ronto image, I've just retrieved it from the artist page. Sorry... Maguinic (talk) 09:47, June 12, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Reverts
If you're referring to Togruta, there was nothing wrong with the formatting of the images. Because of the long infobox, images next to the infobox need to "float" on the right side of the article. If you pile the images on the left side (without div tags), the article would look unkempt and unorganized. The div tags are there for a reason, Richter.  JangFett  (Talk) 20:34, June 19, 2014 (UTC)
 * For this sort of article, however, the right-left-right guideline doesn't work because of the long infobox. Once the article becomes longer and less compact, then the guideline could be applied. The only possible way I could see this working is if we remove a number of images from the Togruta article. You'll notice that if you remove the div html tags, the images will "push" the article downward, effectively pushing the appearance box downward as well.  JangFett  (Talk) 21:02, June 19, 2014 (UTC)
