Ganch
Just an advanced warning as I see you uploaded the Ganch concept art from Hodges' DeviantArt site. Don't add it to the article or it will just get removed. There isn't enough information in the article yet to support it. -  JMAS  Hey, it's me! 01:50, October 7, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, I supposed so but unfortunately it is already to late; I already added it. However, I am currently adding to the Behind the scenes section so I will remove the image with my next edit. --C-3P0 01:52, October 7, 2009 (UTC)
 * I've already added a Behind the scenes section as you'll notice before you added the image, and I've already removed the image as well. -  JMAS  Hey, it's me! 01:54, October 7, 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, I've already seen your edit; however, Hodges also wrote some information in the "Artist's Comments" on DeviantArt, like that Pablo gave him the name. I'm going to add this. --C-3P0 01:56, October 7, 2009 (UTC)
 * Good catch. I totally missed that bit. -  JMAS  Hey, it's me! 01:57, October 7, 2009 (UTC)

Decide Your Destiny Codes
Hi there! I saw that you posted all the codes on the talk page of Decide Your Destiny: Way Of The Jedi discussion page. Would you be so kind as to post the other codes from the other books if you have them? Thanks in advance.--70.75.93.190 01:08, August 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, I do not have the other codes yet. --C-3P0 00:42, August 16, 2010 (UTC)

Oh. Sorry to hear that.--70.75.93.190 03:49, August 16, 2010 (UTC)

Interlang styling
Hi, can you poke me in IRC, as I'm interested on discussing about the interlang styling on Wikia skin. (: –Tm_T (Talk) 14:43, August 1, 2011 (UTC)

HotCat still misbehaving
Sort of the same thing except not quite. Would it be possible to maybe add something that stops it from submitting if an edit removes more than X number of bytes? Just as a ballpark number, if a page had an interlanguage link to every one of the 23 foreign wikis, and that page had a name that averaged 10 characters across all languages, removing the entire existing interlanguage section and not replacing it with anything would take off 440 bytes. So maybe set up HotCat to not submit an edit and put an entry in a log if the edit would remove more than 500 bytes. I'm not a programmer, so I don't know how hard that would be, I'm just throwing an idea out there. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 00:13, August 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * Again, I'm sorry for any bug occuring. To tell the truth, I cannot say why this particular bug occured. I checked the part of the code where the error has occured and there is already a security check in place to prevent a bug like this. HotCat checks the loaded page with the length of the page as given in the page history here and there has to be a 100% match or otherwise the edit is aborted. Furthermore, HotCat prevents any edit from taking place if the length of the page right after the loading as well as right before the submitting of the change is smaller than five bytes.
 * It could be that Rorret does not have a current version of HotCat or that there is something I overlooked. In any case, I added another check against too short pages and will develop a logging system, although this may take some time. Have a nice day, C-3P0 03:47, August 5, 2011 (UTC)

New thing
Now it's removing defaultsorts. Hasn't blanked a page in a while, though, so that bug seems to be squashed. Also, the FA template has been eliminated, so if it would make it run more smoothly or quickly to remove code related to identifying that template you can do so. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 02:37, August 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you for telling me about the bug, it was very easy to fix it. And it is good to know that HotCat no longer blanks the pages.
 * HotCat is able to automatically recognize whether a page is a featured article based on the Eras template in that language. Currently, it supports the language codes de/es/pl/pt/ru/fi/sv and will remove the FA template for these languages only. If an article in another language is a featured article, it will also update the Interlang template accordingly.
 * Unfortunately, HotCat sometimes makes mistakes, eg. when the FA status is not written in the eras template but just on the talk page. However, the recognition should work in most cases, and the FA template is always removed. Do you have a link to an edit where it didn't remove the FA template?
 * Also, if you know language codes that have featured articles in addition to the ones above, please tell me about it so that I can add HotCat support for them as well.
 * Have a nice day, C-3P0 03:39, August 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I misread your post; I have now removed any FA template related code and HotCat is now only using the Interlang template. --C-3P0 04:02, August 6, 2011 (UTC)
