Attack on the Death Star redirect[]

I saw that you removed the delete tag I added to the Star Wars: Attack on the Death Star and made another redirect. I was thinking it would be better to delete the page because I then wanted to move/rename Attack on the Death Star to include "Star Wars" in the title. I didn't want to just revert without mentioning it. --JMM (talk) 19:35, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Ah I see, yeah that's no problem, I've deleted the page to make way for your move. Tommy-Macaroni 19:44, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
- Great, thank you! --JMM (talk) 19:56, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
  - Whoops, I think you deleted the wrong page. "Attack on the Death Star" had all the appropriate info. And that was the one that needed to be renamed to "Star Wars: Attack on the Death Star". --JMM (talk) 19:59, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
    - Oh shit thanks. Sorry, I'm a too tired aha. The old one has been restored and the correct one now deleted. Tommy-Macaroni 20:09, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Random Deletion[]

You just deleted my page out of nowhere. Can you tell me why? All you said was, “Nonsense.”—Unsigned comment by Axiom3045 (talk • contribs).

Precisely. A nonsensical article with just a random list of ships and images most certainly doesn't meet our notability requirements. All info added here must also be referenced, which yours was not. Please do not recreate the page again. Tommy-Macaroni 15:24, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

Meeting 137[]

All members of the AgriCorps are encouraged to participate in our 137th High Republic reenactment event, scheduled for 3pm ET, February 13, 2021. Please leave notes if you cannot attend. MasterFred(talk) 21:52, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

Jeffrey Brown[]

At the the end of the first Jedi Academy, there is a section that says about the author Jeffrey Brown. But there is also a picture of Jeffrey Brown as a Jedi. Is Jeffrey Brown (Jedi) suitable for a page or no. Thanks ~ D MCCG (chat) 13:27, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

Depends on the context. If the character is part of the main story as an author surrogate, they would be notable. But if this Jedi is relegated to just the about the author section, I'd say that's not supposed to be taken as actual canon. Tommy-Macaroni 14:12, 25 January 2021 (UTC)
- Ok, thanks ~ D MCCG (chat) 14:26, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

thanks[]

Thanks for deleting my First Order page, it was a mistake sorry. Phant0mMenace21 (talk) 14:16, 29 January 2021 (UTC)

Darth McCallum[]

All good on the page deletion. It was a quick joke based on this Tweet. :D

Sorry!

I don't care whether it was a joke or not, someone has to waste their time cleaning up your article after you were done when we have better things to be doing. Come on here just to muck around for your own amusement with no regard for our policies again and you will be blocked. Tommy-Macaroni 22:20, 29 January 2021 (UTC)

Apology[]

Ok, hello sorry about that I should probably check the website(s) i get the info from. Please don't block me it was honestly a mistake. Phant0mMenace21 (talk) 11:35, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

Ok, sorry I just had no other way to save that page. I'll redo it properly and it will be well-presented thanks for giving me one more chance. Phant0mMenace21 (talk) 08:29, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

Uploading files[]

Hello there! You left a message on my talk page explaining to me about uploading files. Can you refer to me which article I uploaded the wrong file to? Thank you. CreaBird (talk) 17:34, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

Wiki alliance[]

Tommy-Macaroni,

Recently a member of the Halo wiki informed us that the monster hunter wiki made an alliance with them and wanted to extend the alliance to wookieepedia. I thought it would be a good idea to consult the corps about this so it would be honorable if you mentioned that in the next meeting.

May the force be with you, Clawn Naslin—Unsigned comment by Clawn Naslin (talk • contribs).

How to cite a newspaper?[]

Hi Tommy-Macaroni,

I'mcurrently working on an expansion of a Wookieepedia article, but I have a newspaper as a source? How can I cite it properly?

Greetings, X9 The Android (talk) 20:00, 2 March 2021 (UTC)

Hmm. First off, I'd say that you should try to cite whatever information this is to another source. But if that isn't possible, I suppose it depends on what you're using it for. If it's a specific star wars department, that should have an article so should should just link to that. If not, I suppose you could just have the newspaper title and the date? Idk, it's quite irregular tbh. Tommy-Macaroni 20:07, 2 March 2021 (UTC)

Lawrence Kasdan's article[]

Hi Tommy-Macaroni,

I have seen your bot made an edit to Lawrence Kasdan's article. Do you know what edit it exactly did? It says that it removed "SW", voice and other parameters, but I don't understand what means with "SW" and voice.

Greetings, X9 The Android (talk) 14:38, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

It was just removing three parameters from the infobox that were deemed excessive. You can see the complete explanation and a link to the community vote on the Mofference page. Tommy-Macaroni 14:42, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

The High Republic[]

Hello, up top where it says The High Republic, when you go on it and it says Other can you add Characters of Star Wars: The High Republic or Star Wars: The High Republic Show or is it just strictly comic related materials in Other. Please let me know if you can add it. Also, congrats on becoming bureaucrat! Thanks ~ D MCCG (chat) 15:04, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

Hey, those are great ideas, I've just added them. And thank you! Tommy-Macaroni 16:00, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for adding them! ~ D MCCG (chat) 17:59, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

Archiving[]

Hello, sorry to bother you again but I have wanted to archive last year's messages on my talk page like you have done with your's to clean it up, can you please tell me how to do it or is it only for administration to use? Thanks ~ D MCCG x20px (chat) 01:04, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

Hey, no worries, anyone is allowed to do it and it's really super easy. Basically, you create "User talk:D MCCG/Archive 1" or whatever you want your archive to be called, and then copy-paste all your talk page messages into it. Save the page, and then leave a note on your now-empty main talk page linking to the archive page. It's that easy. Tommy-Macaroni 09:18, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you so much! ~ D MCCG x20px (chat) 14:37, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

Congratulations[]

I don't even think this award is a thing anymore, but you're definitely deserve it. You have helped me since I have came on the wiki as well as other users. Thank you for helping me and other users ~ D MCCG x20px (chat) 14:37, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

**Honorable member of Wookieepedia, I D MCCG present to Tommy-Macaroni this award in honor of their continued contributions to diplomacy**.

Thank you so much! I don't mind helping out at all but that's a lovely gesture, thanks again D MCCG! Tommy-Macaroni 14:40, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you ~ D MCCG x20px (chat) 14:43, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

Re:Paperwork[]

Okay, I'll get to fixing the meeting time on the page, do the paperwork for kept Meeting 76 articles, and fix the talk pages for newly-stripped CAs. Given the general sloppiness and incomplete status of this, a strike is completely fair and I understand.—Unsigned comment by Fan26 (talk • contribs).

Everything I neglected has now been fixed/updated. Fan26 (Talk) 15:52, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

Numbers (Concept)[]

Hello Tommy, I believe there is grounds for the concept of numbers as an identifier on Wookiepedia. There are many characters who have numbers in their designations, and it would be helpful to distinguish the purposes of said designations. For example, the method by which numbers are used in the designations of clones is different than in the designations of droids. It would be helpful to add said page. The initial page I created was meant as a placeholder. I was not finished editing it, but I believe that it could be incredibly helpful. Please consider this, Thank you. -—Unsigned comment by OlliePhresh (talk • contribs).

Unidentified female knight[]

Hello, you were correct, I was picturing the intro as some sort of follow-up to the title: "page title - a character who was...". This was my first submission and I used the existing page from Ry Nymbis as a template. I have since looked at other non-conjecturally named articles and I've got the gist of how those types of articles work now. It really didn't (and still doesn't quite) make sense to me as to why it isn't a follow up on the title like the example above, but I understand that won't change so I won't try to do so either.—Unsigned comment by Psychfan5 (talk • contribs).

Why was I blocked?[]

Hey Mister, I was blocked a couple days ago. Why? I did something wrong?—Unsigned comment by El Clon Renegado (talk • contribs).

I'm afraid I have no idea what you're talking about, your account has never been blocked. Tommy-Macaroni 20:57, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
- What the Flerken? I was blocked by you! From April 19 to Today! By you @Tommy-Macaroni!—Unsigned comment by El Clon Renegado (talk • contribs).
  - I'm guessing you weren't using this account. Let me guess, it was IP 187.160.61.113? In which case I blocked you for creating a page called "GIVINNAME SUCKS," a clear violation of our policy on no personal attacks, as well as being obvious vandalism. Tommy-Macaroni 22:35, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

The Bad Batch link[]

Sorry for bothering you, but up top where it says The Bad Batch, if you click on it, it directs to the page Clone Force 99. I was thinking that it should instead direct you to the the show's page Star Wars: The Bad Batch rather than Clone Force 99 since it is putting info about the show instead of the squad. Thanks ~ D MCCG (chat) 16:20, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

Ah good catch, accidentally left a redirect in there. I’ve updated it with the correct link. Thanks for letting me know. Tommy-Macaroni 16:28, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks ~ D MCCG (chat) 01:53, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

Overseer (Imperial II-class Star Destroyer)[]

I moved Overseer (Imperial II-class Star Destroyer) article to "Overseer (Imperial II-class)" but you moved it back to what is was giving the reason that Imperial II-class may refer to multiple ships. Overseer has image on the article and clearly is a Imperial II-class Star Destroyer. In addition Imperial II-class only refers to multiple ship classes in Star Wars Legends continuity and with Overseer having an image of itself, we can not only assume but also clearly see it being an Imperial II-class Star Destroyer. Also Anakin Solo is an Imperial II-class Star Destroyer and even though Legends has two different classes of Imperial II, it does not apply to Anakin Solo so it shouldn't apply to Overseer which is in canon and this continuity doesn't have multiple Imperial II-classes. I would like to have further information about this topic if possible. Moingx (talk) 07:34, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

The policy I linked to is clear. Per Wookieepedia:Naming policy#Starships: "The parenthetical descriptor need only specify the abbreviated ship class (example: Relentless (Pellaeon-class)) unless the abbreviated class name applies to multiple ship classes, in which case the full ship class name shall be specified (example: Vanguard (Defender-class light corvette), because "Defender-class" may refer to several different ship classes)." Both the fact the other Imperial II-class is in Legends and that the Overseer has an image is irrelevant. The Anakin Solo should also conform to this rule and should be moved. Tommy-Macaroni 09:59, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you for the quick answer and explanation! Have a good day.

TC Merge-Deletes[]

Hi there! Just had a question about the process of Merge-Deletes in the Trash Compactor... Is the Merge part of the Merge-Delete just meant to be a warning to get any merges done before the article is deleted, or is the Merge meant to be part of the Deletion process? Just wondering if I misunderstood it to be the latter when it is actually the former, as for the articles mentioned here: [1] for for the 4 Merge-Deletes specifically, there didn't appear to be any info merged before the articles were deleted. Not even Appearances or Sources lists were updated that I can tell... Just wanted to make sure I understand how it works so I can be more proactive about Merging these kinds of things beforehand if they are up for deletion. Cire Yeldarb 21:33, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

Ideally they should be merged before the deletion. In these cases, all the articles are so minimal I thought the additional info would be somewhat redundant. If you'd like access to the deleted articles though, I'd be happy to provide them. Tommy-Macaroni 09:13, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
- I would appreciate the opportunity!Cire Yeldarb 21:12, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
  - OK, I've copied the code of the latest version of each of the 4 deleted articles into User:Tommy-Macaroni/Other (at the bottom of the page; best viewed in the editor). Thanks for sorting them out. Tommy-Macaroni 21:21, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
    - Comlink/Legends, Floodlight/Legends, Electrobinoculars/Legends, and Hazmat gear have been updated. Thanks for the chance to do so! Cire Yeldarb 01:57, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
      - Nice work. And thank you for updating them! Tommy-Macaroni 07:18, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

Moving pages.[]

Hello. I moved a page earlier for the episode "Decommissioned". I moved the original untitled page to one with the title without leaving a redirect. I did this after checking the log for the previous page and saw that you had deleted a redirect for the earlier episode, as it wasn't necessary.

I'm messaging you to clarify if what I did was correct, as I've been told that I did something wrong. I updated every link for the redlink pages and the template, so no trace was left of the previous page's links, save for user pages, which I don't want to mess with. I just simply chose not to leave a redirect page, as I figured an Administrator would have to delete it later and I wanted to save you all from having to do more work.

I figured if it was actually a problem, an Administrator would've discussed it with me. I just want to resolve this quickly and ensure that I don't make any future mistakes if I am indeed making any. Thank you and thank you for your time. Roger Murtaugh (talk) 02:25, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

Just an update. Another Administrator was contacted about this and this all seems resolved. Thank you for your time regardless. Roger Murtaugh (talk) 04:00, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

NewsSlider Template Update[]

Hello, on the main page I see that the NewsSlider template still has news about Star Wars: Hunters which was news a couple months ago. Maybe you can put new news instead, like about Bad Batch or Star Wars: Hyperspace Lounge or something new. Thanks, D MCCG (chat) 00:11, 8 June 2021 (UTC)

Added one for TBB, but honestly it's been really slow for SW news lately so there's not a lot we can add. Tommy-Macaroni 15:02, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for adding one. ~ D MCCG (chat) 21:14, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
