[edit] Logo

The first logo for SWW seems to have been created by Sikon according to its history. I did not have the capability to create it. -- Riffsyphon1024 20:22, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

  • I didn't create them - I merely bumped earlier revisions of wiki.png into separate images. - Sikon 14:14, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Quote

That quote from Pena needs a source ;o) --Eyrezer 07:20, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

  • It's from when we added him as an Official Friend I believe. -- Riffsyphon1024 07:40, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] As Cofounder

I don't think it would hurt to add my name up to the top of the article next to Chad, would it? -- Riffsyphon1024 03:57, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wookieepedia.org

We might want to add a reference to wookieepedia.org[1]. I followed a link there once, and I for a moment thought that this site was thoroughly vandalized! We should add it to prevent confusion. User:82 Airborne

[edit] Katarnipedia?

When did this become Katarnipedia?—Unsigned comment by 71.169.18.155 (talk • contribs).

[edit] Question

The April Fools section reads "Most of the sites were reverted to normal on april 2nd except a couple which were "lost" and had to be restored from an earlier incarnation."

No actual contributions were lost were they? Adamwankenobi 10:44, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

  • I seem to remember some being mentioned as being lost... but that could be an April Fools' joke itself. Delete that bit of information if you want. KEJ 12:30, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
    • The only way to "lose" contributions would require someone to go into the database itself and manually remove them. I doubt any contributions were lost. -- I need a name (Complain here) 22:20, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Um, the template has changed. Is someone going to fix that?

[edit] Wookieepedian?

Wookieepedian redirects to wookieepedia. Should wookieepedian redirect to list of Wookieepedians?--Windu223 13:18, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Fixed it. - JMAS 13:24, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
    • No, it shouldn't. Because it would be a self-reference that way. - Sikon 14:31, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
Disambig page?—B-Boba Fett! He'll kill us all! 00:23, November 14, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] LucasArts and the Wookieepedia text

Although it is a touchy issue, I see no reason to exclude such an important fact simply because the community dislikes it. I agree that it was an unwise move of Sikon to send the letter to LucasArts, but to outright deny the issue and threaten a ban to anyone who acknowledges it seems to me an awful lot like censorship. Adamwankenobi 20:19, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

  • I'm tempted to put it back in, under the "Popular Acclaim" section... it shows how good Wookieepedia is :-) I don't think "LucasArts used Wookieepedia text in describing some elements of their game Star Wars Battlefront: Renegade Squadron" causes any harm. But I don't have the balls to do it myself :-) --Azizlight 07:56, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Victims of the Great LucasCruft Purge and other SW articles nominated for deletion

Do we really need to list all these on this page? I'm thinking not. --Azizlight 07:35, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

  • No, we don't. - Sikon 07:43, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
    • Someone wanted to merge the Great LucasCruft Page to here. Why couldn't they leave it where it was? -- Riffsyphon1024 15:17, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Article Improvements

I'm just starting a checklist here of things we might want to add to this article. However, we don't want this to just turn into a help file describing every feature of the site. Feel free to edit it with anything that needs improvement. —Xwing328(Talk) 05:00, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

  • This can really be a great article, and I would hope to get it to Featured Status one day. But we need help expanding the sections, and as NPOV as possible. -- Riffsyphon1024 05:08, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
    • Strange, how did those 2003's get in there? -- Riffsyphon1024 07:48, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

  • FWIW, that wikistats page is vastly inaccurate. I'm unsure how they were pulling their data, but the old table didn't even show Luke Skywalker in the top fifty most edited (at least not in its truthful placement). Also, user edits were consistently off; perhaps it didn't count minor edits or something. Also, my user talk page is not in the top fifteen, ' kay thanks. :-) Atarumaster88 (Talk page) 19:20, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
    • Correction: I talked it over with Greyman and while most things in there are good, the most edited pages aren't accurate. Atarumaster88 (Talk page) 19:47, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Noncanon

All of Wookiepedia is non-canon, so shouldn't non-canon articles be allowed, with a reference saying that they are non-canon? —Unsigned comment by RC-1130 (talk • contribs).

  • How is it all non-canon? Chack Jadson (Talk) 13:18, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
    • I think what he's implying is that WP is an unofficial source. This article could use a "meta" tag, though. DAWUSS 01:15, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] April fools?

Also on April 1st, the wiki temporarily became "film purist"...is that because of April Fools?—B-Boba Fett! He'll kill us all! 00:21, November 14, 2009 (UTC)
