''NOTICE: I will, for the most part, only be around on weekends until further notice, and reserve the right to disappear for a few days without formal announcements. So if you have a very general question, you want a really quick response, and you don't see my username on the Recent changes page, you may want to ask another user. If it's a question specific to me, however, I'll get back to you in a couple of days at worst.''

Thank you

Voting
So, how would one be able to vote for "Official Friends," out of curiosity? -Shikyo Keibatsu 12:58, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

Star wars Orgins
That is the website I found it from
 * OK, I checked that website, but I don't see where the person who wrote that article got his information from. Perhaps someone will be able to find a primary source for that claim, but I think I'll remove it for now. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 19:12, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Well between that and the documentory that came with the reenhanced addition I think it could be reliable
 * In that case, it should be sourced to Empire of Dreams. It's been a while since I watched it, so I don't know if that bit of information is there or not. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 23:54, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

Support Ewoks etc.
How do I get that thing you have on your page that says "this user supports Ewoks" and all that other stuff? And thanks for the welcoming message!Maxi6 23:24, 2 December 2007 (UTC)Maxi6
 * I'd tell you, but you seem to have figured it out yourself. 8) &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 00:34, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

Yep I found out just after I asked you. Thanks anyway!

Ok...you got me. Thank you for the fantastic site! I am thoroughly impressed with your scrutiny of posts. This will be an invaluable resource for my RPG campaign. Cheers,
 * OK then. Thanks for your cooperation. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 21:54, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Name Add-ons
I've noticed that many people have put little pictures and things next to their names when they sign the talk pages. How can I get one?Maxi6 00:35, 13 December 2007 (UTC)Maxi6

One other thing: What exactly are widgets and how do I use them? And thanks for the signature help.Maxi6 22:14, 15 December 2007 (UTC)Maxi6
 * I don't know what you mean by "widget", beyond the standard dictionary definition. Sorry. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 22:32, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

When I go to the drop-down menu next to my username, it says my userpage, my talk, my preferences, my watchlist, my contributions, and manage widgets. Maxi6 14:18, 17 December 2007 (UTC)Maxi6

WP links
Ah, sorry about that. As far as Wikipedia links go, I've been slightly annoyed with them, as they frequently direct us to a slice of a "various minor stuff from Star Wars" page which has either very little information attached, or pages that contain so little information on the subject that I feel it is rather moot&mdash;we have more here, and directing readers there is a bit of a waste. However, I did start to realize my error when I hit some of the big names, and stopped. Should I revert them all? It's your call. With respect, Graestan ( This party's over ) 14:47, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
 * As for the fan site stuff, I really feel that SWTC is a bit misleading for users, who have had a very small piece of Mr. Saxton's creations canonized, but are still being referred to the rest of his unofficial (as I believe he should point out in the very title of his site, as very few people read introductory paragraphs) works, which are still considered fanon. I was beginning to apply the same logic to sites which were linked to without any pretext as to whether they were verifiable and only contained canonical information, but it really was just a thought. I'm quite open to undoing my work last night, and I hope you're not offended. Graestan ( This party's over ) 14:52, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Back to Wikipedia&hellip; Kindly click the Wikipedia link at the bottom of CC-1138, please. I rest my case. Graestan ( This party's over ) 14:57, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Answering on your talk page. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 22:58, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the congratulations. I'll go about fixing those links, but I'll keep an eye out for nonsense or nonexistent articles like the one I pointed out. Graestan ( This party's over ) 06:01, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Merry Christmas!

 * Thanks! &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 04:17, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

ok I am adding the stuff to the sith magic section. Someone will have to makie it look nice though probably. Thanks. Shatterpoint14 00:41, 7 January 2008 (UTC)Shatterpoint14

Thanks
Thanks for reverting vandalism on my page.  Chack Jadson  (Talk) 14:28, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
 * You're welcome. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 14:40, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Why
Why was Jack Nebulax exiled?
 * Persistently argumentative behaviour and edit-warring. You'd have to ask the people who did block him for the details about whatever it was that led to his final block: my only involvement there was to archive and lock his talk page to prevent people from leaving him messages he couldn't respond to anyway (whether the messages were to taunt him, complain about the block, or to ask him some other question.)  You seem to be a very new user here, though: why do you want to know? &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 16:05, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

I dunno! I only knew this thing existed until a few days ago! Darth Oompa Loompa 17:34, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks anyway. Darth Oompa Loompa 17:35, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Re: wiki link
I agree with you that it should stay in this case. As I was removing it, I was having second thoughts, but went ahead with it. Toprawa and Ralltiir 23:52, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Veedo Vaocan

 * Good solution; I'm fine with it in the Bts section like you have it. More broadly, you've done a good job on the expansion as a whole. jSarek 18:43, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Do Rodians hear through their ears or antenna? Vaocan appears to still have his ear in that pic - of course that begs the question of why his right-side hearing is impaired... --Eyrezer 22:22, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
 * The Databank calls the antennae "twin saucer-like sensory organs", while Ultimate Alien Anthology, Galaxy Guide 4, and both the new and old Essential Guides to Alien Species don't mention them at all. I guess the offhand mention in H & R means they hear with their antennae, but then what are their ears for? &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 14:49, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Or the same explosion that took his antenna cost him his hearing in one ear. jSarek 01:11, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

%s
In Mozilla Firefox is a function named keywords. How does it work? There is an instruction - http://youtube.com/watch?v=atEc5xQOkI4 (or http://kb.mozillazine.org/Using_keyword_searches). As you see it's very heplful. For example my keyword for Wookiepedia is "woo". But when I (or anybody else) write down only "woo" I'll enter the page named "%s". And there should be redirect to Main Page. When I want to enter the Wookiepedia I don'h have to write "starwars.wiki.com but I can write only "woo". Faster and better (searching), belive me :P. Trust me - a lot of people use this function and redirect :) PS. Sorry for my English :) --Abe125 17:57, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Deletion

 * Hey SD, I just put Eggzavier's page up on notice today for fanon limit to give him a chance to fix it- did he ask for it to be deleted, or was it empty? Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 23:49, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
 * He had blanked it and removed the link on his userpage, so I assumed he wanted it deleted. You can undelete it if you want. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 00:29, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh, okay. His post on my talk page made me think he had just reduced it. If he blanked it, I'm certainly not going to undelete it. Thanks for the explanation. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 00:52, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

what can you post
dear silly dan,

I have a question. The question is if you are allowed to make a page about people/objects/ force powers from another game ( like darth reven from knights of the old republick). If you could tell me it would be great.

from, jedy6122 Jedy6122 04:59, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
 * You can make articles on Force powers, but check Category:Force powers first to make sure those articles don't already exist. Cheers, &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 05:07, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Re: Tirog
Nice work; very clear, which is a real accomplishment considering what an oddball topic he is. I like the "fourth wall" link. The only thing I was concerned with was the "probably a Class 720 Ghtroc" bit; I felt that might be just a teensy bit fan-assumption-y, so I changed it to "possibly," which I felt more comfortable with. If you want to change it back, I will not edit-war you. :) Shoot for FA. Tirog belongs on the main page. Cheers,  Gonk  ( Gonk! ) 00:43, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I definitely think this can go to FA! --Eyrezer 08:00, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I'll try bringing it up to code first, though: redlinks need to be filled in, and the intro is too short. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 13:55, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
 * About the artist... Not having the book in front of me, I would eat my hat if it's not Mike Vilardi.  Gonk  ( Gonk! ) 15:27, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

"Fun" templates
It seems odd to me that a lack of consensus should result in Imp's rogue changes being accepted. Why should his changes not be reverted? – Aidje talk 23:12, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
 * The principle I applied was "make the least changes possible from where we are now, whether they be new changes or reversions to very old versions." &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 23:19, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Gotab/Bardan Jusik
it has been revealed that the characters Gotab and Bardan Jusik are the same person and i think that someone needs to merge their articles. This has been known for a while, yet nothing has happened, so i was wondering if you would be able to help. I am contacting a number of admins as well, so hopefully this will be able to be sorted out as soon as possible. Thanks for any help u can give me --Tom Slaughts 12:56, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
