[edit] Millenarians
While, yes, it's true I don't have that one, the secondary source I used to refer me to the primary source was the CUSWE, decidedly NOT "fanon" as you so eloquently claimed. Conclusions. They were jumped to. Rodtheanimegod4ever 05:19, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Klaatu barada nikto
Are you implying that somehow there is the possibility that the Klatooininan Barada who works with Niktos was possibly inspired from some other source than the famous sci-fi film? Moreover, this issue doesn't seem to be a problem for the BtS's for Klaatu, Nikto or Klatooine. Dangerdan97 21:49, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
- He's implying that the information needed a source -- no matter how obvious it is. Culator, I've altered it a little—though I'm sure my wording could be better—so as not to assume anything; is this version acceptable? -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 21:54, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
[edit] This is a question
Do clones have a mind of their own? Or are their mess up clones Ncstate 14:26, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] hi
why did you delet my sniper rifle rt-97c? I read it strait off of a starwars poster and worked realy hard on it. its a real sniper rifle in starwars.>:| alahood153
[edit] why?
THAT WAS SO HARD TO MAKE
YOU WASTED HOURS OF MY LIFE
- You know, if you'd just shut up for a second, maybe I could answer your question. -- Darth Culator (Talk) 15:29, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
- Good. Now, your page was deleted because it obeyed none of the rules of this site or of proper English spelling and grammar. You used an image that was not related to the topic, and completely overlooked the fact that the item already had an article at RT-97C heavy blaster rifle. If that mess took you hours, I suggest you finish elementary school before making another attempt to contribute to an encyclopedia. -- Darth Culator (Talk) 15:31, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Curse your archiving
Your Corran objections should both be satisfied. Havac 18:02, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
- Picture added.
- I don't mention the specific class of every Star Destroyer in the article, as it's just not relevant to Corran. Moreover, I only have actual references in canon to Lusankya being an SSD. If you can find a more specific reference, I'll add it. Havac 23:59, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
- How is it not relevant to Corran? It's stupid to be deliberately vague about the prison he escaped/the starship he helped destroy. Anyway, Starships of the Galaxy (2007) and The Official Figurine Collection 1 (in addition to the X-wing novels themselves) make it explicit that the Lusankya is the same class as Executor, and even the Databank acknowledges that the Executor is an Executor-class Star Dreadnought. Please get over your personal bias and add the relevant facts to the article. -- Darth Culator (Talk) 00:39, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
- Culator, this has nothing to do with personal bias. It has everything to do with not giving a damn and with having a writing style that tends not to get bogged down in technical designations; I say "the Star Destroyer Chimaera" and not "the Imperial II-class Star Destroyer Chimaera" because it bogs down the sentence in needless technological/designational minutiae. I might specify for someone who's actually the captain of the ship, and certainly in an article about the ship, but not generally in an article about someone who's on the ship a handful of times, not when it's a ridiculously long technical designation. Look, if you think it's that important the information be in there, you can add it. But I can't see how that holds any water as an objection to a FAN. Havac 06:08, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
- Technical inaccuracy is a violation of the very first rule of FAN. But mainly I did it this way so nobody had grounds to change it back. You already called it a "Super Star Destroyer," and "Executor-class Star Dreadnaught" fits comfortably in place of that in the one place I changed it. Plus "star dreadnaught" actually has half as many syllables and four fewer characters than "super star destroyer" so your excuse holds even less water than my objection. Anyway, it's fixed now. -- Darth Culator (Talk) 15:16, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Jedi for cheap
I checked out your link to the page where you can "become a Jedi knight", I thought it was a little odd, I mean what kind of a mind comes up with that, especially on a "religious" web page. Oh well, thanks for the laughs Ryan Fett (For Mandalore!)

[edit] User:Jedi Master Cole
Hey Culator, just wondering why you redirected two user pages to User:Jedi Master Cole, the reason I'm asking is because one of the users you redirected has previously vandalised other users pages and I've been trying to keep half an eye on him. If you could tell me the reason that'd be great. Thanks - Kingpin13Cantina Battle Ground 15:17, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
- They're all the same person. Since users may only have one name at a time, the previous ones were blocked and redirected to the current one. -- Darth Culator (Talk) 16:52, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fanon Image?
Hello. I see you have deleted the image JediExileTrial.jpg, may I ask why do you believe it's fanon? No mods were used to obtain that camera angle, if that's what you thought.--Jinger 16:17, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
- Any depiction of the Exile's face is non-canon by definition, even from a distance. -- Darth Culator (Talk) 16:50, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Star Dreadnaught
Pardon me, but I have never heard the Lusankya reffered to as a "Executor-class Star Dreadnaught", can you tell me why it has been changed in Corran Horn's article to "Star Dreadnaught"
Ryan Fett (For Mandalore!)
01:21, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
- Try reading and comprehending and don't ask stupid questions. -- Darth Culator (Talk) 01:37, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
- I'm sorry, (there's no need to be rude) I was asking by what source was it cannonly reffered to as an "Executor-class Star Dreadnaught" as in I, Jedi, and the X-wing series (not to mention many, many other sources) it is always reffered to as a Super Class Star Destroyer or an Executor-class Star Destroyer, I had always been under the impression that this was different from a Star Dreadnaught class ship as all ships that are directly reffered to as a Dreadnaught class ship or merely a Dreadnaught are very different. Ryan Fett (For Mandalore!)
01:44, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
- On second thought i dont want an answer. Just ignore the fact that I posted earlier its not worth attempting to explain. Ryan Fett (For Mandalore!)

[edit] Images of Morrigan Corde
Hey Culator, I see you've deleted Category:Images of Morrigan Corde, and then protected the creation to Sysops. I see the reason for deletion is "Empty category", However, you haven't given a reason for protection and I'll be happy to put some images of Morrigan Corde in the category if you'll allow it to be created. Although I probably won't be able to get every single image of her in, I'm sure it'll be done over time. Thanks - Kingpin13Cantina Battle Ground 18:22, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
- Never mind, figured it out for myself (didn't see the redirect). Sorry about that - Kingpin13Cantina Battle Ground 18:27, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Star Wars: Empire
Hi. I have a request for you to ask. As I pointed on this page, all Empire comic issues have titles slightly different from what I believe isto be the current Wookiee-style policy:
- Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1: Commencement, Part 1
- Star Wars Republic 1: Prelude to Rebellion, Part 1
- Star Wars Dark Times 1: The Path to Nowhere, Part 1
- Star Wars: Empire 1: Betrayal, Part 1 (Sic!)
- Star Wars Rebellion 1: My Brother, My Enemy, Part 1
- Star Wars Legacy 1: Broken, Part 1
The colon (:) after Star Wars is unnesessary here. I checked history and it looks kike some droid has moved all the pages and replaced Star Wars Empire with Star Wars: Empire. Since it looks out of place, I'm asking for a permission to move all 40 pags back. Mauser 19:18, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Hey Darth Culator, I just wanted to let you know that I'm a bit suspicious about User:Eagle Eye 370. His contributions seem very similar to those of the blocked User:We need a name. Grand Moff Tranner

[edit] URGENT!!!!
I've just found out some terrible news... Users Madclaw, and Supergeeky1 were up to something, and they were somehow about to use a coded message on #Wookieepedia. I think they were saying something about starting a mutiny against you, and they allegedly claim that their contact is LtNOWIS. I'm suggesting that we step up our security, in case there ever is a rebellion against us.
I could be wrong, but still, we must take contingency measures to prevent this from happening.

[edit] Sorry for the Starships
I'm SO SORRY! It did not realize that you were fixing the category. I assumed that it accidentally did not make it to the page.
In the Future I will pay more attention to comments.
A couple of questions
1. What ships if any still need to be in the Galactic Republic ship category? I put in the ones I was familiar with (i.e. ships of the Clone Wars and the Dreadnoughts). 2. Have all the Imperial ships been categorized? 3. Should we have a Rebel Category as well, or does The New Republic Starship category fulfill both the Rebel Alliance ships and New Republic ships?
I use the category pages as sources for my writing when it comes down to technical aspects. which is why I created the Republic and Empire ship categories.
Once again I am terribly sorry for any misscommunication yesterday

[edit] Leia's history
There seems to be confusion on Leia's entry of the events just before Yavin. It's very conveluded as far as the order of events. It seems to me (my opinion of course!) she visited Coruscant before she was aware of the Rebel Alliance. Did she become a Senator before the Corellian Treaty, to succeed her father, or what it in response that he was a marked man, and she replaced him after being caught by Vader. It is not clear what happenend. Probably since there is no concrete storyline of her life before Episode IV. (Maybe someone should write a trilogy like they did for Han.) I just want to understand the order of events in Leia life before Episode IV so that part of her entry makes sense. Maybe it needs to be fixed. I don't know.
Thoughts?
Thank you,
Sommerse2 21:26, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Need help moving category
I'm planning on moving Category:Starports to Category:Spaceports, simply because spaceports is the correct in-uni term. Is there any way I can do this without screwing up all the category links? And also, when I subcategorise, should I use [[Category:whatever]] or the subcat template? There seems to be much variation on this issue. Thx. Soresumakashi 06:51, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] "Incredibly" Irrelevant
You deleted a post i made about "Darth Mater" claiming it to be "incredibly irrelevant." I can't say I quite understand that. Isn't Wookiepedia a glossary of anything and everything doing with Star Wars? This fits under that category, especially by being a one-of-a-kind collectors item signed by George Lucas. Darthstich 05:20, 10 September 2008 (UTC)Darthstich
- 1, it's Wookieepedia. It's on every page at least twice while "Wookiepedia" is nowhere, which should actually make it harder to get it wrong but you still pulled it off. Congratulations. 2, That item does not merit an individual article on Wookieepedia. If it belongs anywhere, it's on the Star Wars merchandise wiki. -- Darth Culator (Talk) 05:29, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
This coming from the man who can't seem to spell "calculator" Anyways, thanks for your help. I will move the information there. Darthstich 05:32, 10 September 2008 (UTC)Darthstich

[edit] Kreia Exile Bond.ogg
I don't understand this. Why do you keep reverting or deleting the full version I uploaded? This quote is incomplete, the last part is missing. Redemption first reverted it and he totally ignored me when I told him on his talk page that he just deleted a full quote to keep the incomplete one. Days pass and he goes on to his business without bothering with me, now I put it back and you delete it. Why?--Jinger 10:15, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Block
Do mind unblocking me? Its User:Purpilia and I am still baffled as to why I was blocked in the first place. You claim that I was falsifying sources but I don't believe I was, and if I did it was purely an accident. Because I only recall identifying hyperspace images, and those have been deleted for good reason, I cant see the histories so as to see what it was that I may have done wrong. If its regarding the starwars.com images, all of the ROTS behind the scenes images havent been updated on the new site, so like I said I cant give the correct address until they do update it. So if you could give me an example of my mistake or just unblock me, I would be greatly appreciative. Thanks! Purpilia.
- Uh could you reply please? Or just unblock me? I cant access this computer at night so I would like action asap.
- Okay, why are you not responding to me? It is really quite rude. I would really like an explanation or just to be let back on the site. I looked at my history and the one image I saw you revert was from the Visual Dictionary for ROTS. I think I might have accidentally put Complete Visual guide instead of Complete Visual Dictionary. If that is not the case then I would like an explanation tonight, due to my repeated requests being ignored. User:Purpilia.
- You'll probably get a faster reply from Culator by logging on to IRC. - JMAS Hey, it's me! 00:22, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Beautification request
Hey, I was hoping you would be able to upload a higher res version of this image I borrowed from the Databank: Image:ExecutorShuttle.jpg. However, if you have the 2007 Starships of the Galaxy, there is a much better, wider version of this same shot under the "Super Star Destroyer" section that would do nicely if you can upload that at all.

[edit] Belbullab-22 help?
Heya. Belbullab-22-cadillac.jpeg was deleted for total failure to follow instructions. Understandable. I was trying to figure out how to add sourcing info to images that already exist, after they've been uploaded. (I clicked the "New! Add Images" link above a message. It didn't exactly come with instructions or helpful information.) I'm trying to re-upload it correctly (with the "Upload File" link in the sidebar). However, because the image was already deleted it can't be added again.
The image is from the Star Wars Galaxies website. I was going to switch it out as the primary on the Belbullab-22 page, because it's bigger, prettier, and (mostly importantly) clearer than the two tiny Soulless One images.
Could you help me out with what to do next? If it's something you're willing to let me correct, let me know please. If it's something you have to do then:
Description: Belbullab with after-market engines Source: Star Wars Galaxies Licensing: Screenshot (Red Copyright). Cat: images of Belbullab-22, cat: Images from SWG. SinisterSamurai 23:48, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
- On the upload form, even if you don't use the template or any recommended format, you can still put the info in the "summary" box. I'd have corrected the format if you had included any of the relevant info. If you don't include any info when uploading, just edit the image summary page like a normal article after it finishes uploading. I'll restore the image now, since it's clear you have better intentions than most hit-and-run uploaders. -- Darth Culator (Talk) 23:49, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Hello...
Hello there! My name is Kgrimes2, and I noticed that you are continually erasing my images that I upload. May I ask why? What is a way that I can keep this from this happening again? Does it have something to do with "sourcing" them? Thanks! <~Kg®imes2~> 03:15, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Extracting images from SWF files
I was curious what program you use to extract jpeg image files from SWF files. Thanks in advance. - JMAS Hey, it's me! 01:44, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
