Reference formatting
Edit
Hi, I have noticed that you have been adding periods at the end of reference contents lately, but haven't seen that being done before. Is there some rule/grammar guide or something why this should/can be done? (: –Tm_T (Talk) 09:53, June 8, 2011 (UTC)
- Hi Tm_T. There are very few rules relating to sourcing here, and no particular style guide has been chosen. Therefore, it is generally left to the discretion of the primary author of the article. I, like some of the other members of the WookieeProject: Aliens, tend toward more comprehensive referencing; for instance, including page numbers where practicable. As my own attitude has evolved, I have tended toward using "p. 26." or "pp. 26–28." to indicate page numbers, and as I update/copy-edit old articles that I have written, I have tried to implement this consistently. I hope that answers your question. --Eyrezer 11:36, June 8, 2011 (UTC)
Tunroth
Edit
Whoops... I hope you don't mind the update I gave Tunroth. I saw it come up on the FA re-feature nom page, and I assumed it had been nominated by someone who was no longer active. At any rate, feel free to dive back in and change anything back that you don't like! ~Savage

- No problem. The update is much appreciated. --Eyrezer 04:18, June 19, 2011 (UTC)

Please note that your GAN has an unanswered objection from June 3. If you could answer to that, the nomination would be ready for archiving. Cheers. 1358 (Talk) 13:53, June 15, 2011 (UTC)

Re: CWA
Edit
Hey Eyrezer. The info in question on Ermi comes from the in-game "Shop," where players can buy outfits using credits earned through mini-games. The only new info would be from the description for the actual Ermi Jedi outfit set, which you can find here through CWA's Gear list page—you don't need an account to view it. Go to "Outfits," then to "Jedi Gear," and click on "Ancient Ermi Jedi." Clicking on any of the magnifying glass icons will give you the same description for the set. Just a note: you can format the referencing for the article like this: {{TCWA|Shop}} {{C|Description for "Ancient Ermi Jedi" gear outfit}} Hope that helps, and let me know if you have any questions.

Moogan
Edit
Hey Eyrezer. We were thinking your assistance could be useful on the Moogan GAN page as it seems there is a hangup with the "..in the galaxy" section. Appreciate any help. -- Riffsyphon1024 07:41, June 30, 2011 (UTC)
Sources question
Edit
Hello there, I have a question about sources in articles. If something like the New Essential Chronology and original EC includes the same information, do I need to list both or does one take precedence over the other? Corellian Premier

Re:Cold War map
Edit
Hey Eyrezer, I did some checking around and really wasn't able to come up with much. None of the markers on that map have been explicitly identified thus far, although I would argue that it stands to reason that the two Republic worlds close to one another in the Core are Coruscant and Alderaan. But, barring any official word, I compared them to to this image, showing the Seswenna sector, this image, showing the Tingel Arm, and this image, showing the Bothan sector. Those files seem pretty inconsistent with galaxy maps from The Essential Atlas which leads me to think that the orientation is skewed, but if you can glean anything from them, it may help. I'm not very familiar with the location or surroundings of that Atravis sector, so I'm having a bit of a hard time. However, if I come across any TOR information mentioning the sector or any of its planets or systems, I'll be sure to let you know. Darth Trayus(Trayus Academy) 20:13, July 2, 2011 (UTC)

WP:AS on the NewsNet
Edit
Hey Eyre; I'm planning to write a little spotlight on WP:AS for the NewsNet as the first in a series of articles profiling the various WookieeProjects. As part of the article, I'd be grateful if you would consent to answer a few questions regarding your work on the project? I'm asking SavageBob as well since you two are the primary active contributors. Thanks in advance, Cavalier One

Morseerian Santa Claus
Edit
Hey, Eyr, hope your summer (winter?) is going well! I checked File:IndependenceSantaClaus.png for Morseerians, and I can't spot them. Were you thinking maybe that the two guys with big, green heads at the top part of the image were Morseerians? They only have two arms apiece, so we can dismiss them if that's the case. ~Savage
13:24, July 21, 2011 (UTC)
- Hi Bob. I thought I'd put (Possible appearance) on that appearance, but it appears I did not. I really only meant the individual at the back on the right. Given the color and shape of the head and the white uniform, which matches that seen on a number of other Morseerians, my immediate thought on seeing it was Morseerian. I think at least quaifies it for a mention in the BTS, as given the tiny size of the individual concerned, I think it is reasonable that the graphic artists in X-wing intended it to be a Morseerian, and the second set of limbs may just be hidden behind the top set. Similar to the indivudal mentioned from Star Wars 7: New Planets, New Perils, the lack of two extra arms should not exclude it from a mention. What do you think? --Eyrezer 06:12, August 6, 2011 (UTC)
- Yeah, I've been reading the Marvel Star Wars Omnibi from DHC, and I noticed when I got to that issue that the guy only has two arms. I think I might demote them both to "Pos" only, and remove the in-universe mention of the Marvel guy. But, you're right, they probably both deserve mention in the BTS. I'll add it to my to-do list. ~Savage

Palpatine's Return
Edit
Thanks for the poke. I actually had no idea that that objection existed. Weirdly enough, I'm currently reading through Crimson Empire for the first time. I've given some more context on the battle and tried to keep it chronological, ie, establishing what Jax is doing there before beginning to talk about what Wedge does when he arrives. I'm not sure if that's what you were looking for; if anything else is needed, let me know. Menkooroo 15:11, August 5, 2011 (UTC)
Status thing
Edit
Hey Eyrezer, I just noticed you maintain a "Topic Status" page. Might I suggest adding a Cathar box as well. Five Cathars are FAs: Crado, Ferroh, Myhr Rho, Rasi Tuum, and Sylvar. Also one Cathar is a GA: Zho Rasi Tuum. I hope that qualifies for the status page. Thanks and cya. Kilson(Let's have a chat) 11:52, August 14, 2011 (UTC)

I don't, unfortunately; I just glanced through it really quickly at a bookstore without buying it. However, I think Darth Culator has access to it; you might be able to ask him for the info. CC7567 (talk) 19:17, August 20, 2011 (UTC)

Ho'Dins in the Star Wars Adventures books
Edit
Hey, Eyre. There are actually potentially two Ho'Din gardeners in the Star Wars Adventures books, since one is unnamed. The second one could be Oo Wyn, since the chapters in which he appears are told from Sebulba's POV, and Sebulba doesn't know any of the gardeners' names. But it's unclear. I've also included what generic info the books have about the Ho'Din as a species, since I figure you'll maybe want to FA the species at some point. I've gone with chapters in the case of the novel (since it has chapters) and page numbers in the case of the game book (which has no chapters); let me know if you'd prefer page numbers all around. ~Savage
01:54, September 8, 2011 (UTC)
Oo Wyn
Edit
After breaking a bunch of Ghostling children out of Gardulla the Hutt's custody in her palace on Tatooine, Anakin, Kitster, Dorn (a Bothan), and Pala (a Twi'lek) were trying to get them out of the palace. The palace had been notified to their presence, though, so it was impossible and they would have to come back. On Kitster's suggestion, they released them into the unfinished pleasure garden, which was tended by Ho'Din gardeners. Kitster figured the Ho'Din would help them hide until Anakin and co. could come back to smuggle them out. (The Ghostling Children, Chapter 13)
Pala too was eventually smuggled into the pleasure garden, because her role in the rescue was found out and she had to avoid a bounty on her head. (Capture Arawynne, chapter 1)
As the children waited for rescue, the garden was stocked with dangerous creatures like Deneba bushes, swamp slugs, cucul, syren plants, urchins. (Capture Arawynne, chapter 1)
The pleasure garden was also stocked with Wistie slaves, who were supposed illuminate night-time parties there. (CA 1)
Pleasure garden was huge and had many zones: swamp, waterfall, small lake, forest. (CA 1)
Oo Wen was a gardener who was a slave to Gardulla and worked in the pleasure garden (CA 1)
He was tall (CA 1)
He was peaceful. (CA 1)
He helped the fugitive children by signaling them when it was safe to cross through open areas of the pleasure garden. (CA 1)
He was, like his species, a nature lover and peaceful. He had decided to do anything to help the children in the garden. (CA 1)
Unnamed Ho'Din gardener (possibly Oo Wyn)
Edit
When Anakin and co. finally mounted a rescue, Sebulba and his team followed them to try to capture the escaped slaves and their would-be emancipators. He came across a Ho'Din gardener during this time. [The book does not name the Ho'Din. It may be Oo Wen, or it may be one of the other Ho'Din gardeners.] This Ho'Din had green skin and violet head scales. Sebulba found him in the midst of planting gourds in a little grove. Sebulba ordered the Ho'Din to show him where the kids were hiding, and at the threat of violence to the plants (not to himself), the Ho'Din went with the Dug. (CA 11)
The Ho'Din gardener led Sebulba to the front door of the garden and said he had seen Ghostlings there. Sebulba knew it was a ruse, but at that same moment, he heard from Djas Puhr over Sebulba's comlink let him know the kids had escaped in the ventilation system and Sebulba would have to exit the garden to chase them. He thanked the Ho'Din for bringing him to the exit. The Ho"Din tried to attack with his mattock, but Sebulba shot the gardening implement and the Ho'Din escaped into the garden. (CA 13)
The same encounter with the unnamed Ho'Din gardener occurs in the Capture Arawynne Game Book, although the game book allows you to play as Sebulba, Gondry, Khiss, or Djas Puhr. (CAGB p. 3) In the game book version, the player has to roll dice to persuade the gardener to help. In the worst-case scenario, the player has to not only shoot up the garden, but also offer rewards of rare flower seeds. (CAGB 39-40)
From the game book, we learn that the Ho'Din used his mattock as a staff when walking. (CAGB 40)
The unnamed Ho'Din is more then three meters tall (CAGB 40)
Generic Ho'Din species info
Edit
Ho'Din species are peaceful (TGC 13)
Ho"Din from Moltok (TGC 13)
Name "Ho'Din" means "walking flower" (TGC 13)
Tall and lean as a species (TGC 13)
They had "gorgeous red and violet scales that hung from their heads like hair." (TGC 13)
Ho'Din "loved nature" (TGC 13)
long, suction-cup fingers (CA 11)
"The Ho'Din's eyes widened in fear." (CA 13)
Possible quotes
Edit
"Welcome to Gardulla's pleasure garden."
"But didn't you say that there are animal sin here that eat people… or Ghostlings."
"Not yet. Not for months. Gardulla's foresters aren't done. They've been working all season, planting trees and flowers, and now they're almost done. They're Ho'Din." (Kitster and Pala, TGC ch. 13)
"Just tell me what I want to know, or I'll blast you so full of holes, you'll only be good for compost."
"I can think of no greater honor than to feed my body to the soil when I no longer need it." (Sebulba and a Ho'Din gardener, CA 11)
"Do you know how far through the stars that little one has come?" (a Ho'Din gardener, aghast at Sebulba's wanton shooting o a gourd, CA 11)

Platt's Smugglers Zarian
Edit
Hello, Eyrezer.
Back in 2007, you edited the article on Zarian and added Platt's Smugglers Guide (Image only) to the source list. I'm reviewing the book back and forth, but I can't find any picture looking like a Zarian—or even a Chubbit or something similar. Can you pinpoint the image you were talking about back then? Dankko Verrimuch in advance, Skippy Farlstendoiro 17:34, October 6, 2011 (UTC)
- I believe I was referring to this image. And welcome back, at least momentarily :) --Eyrezer 19:40, October 6, 2011 (UTC)
- That's an interesting approach because your assumed Zarian guy is more upright than I am. In March 2009, JustinGann added Arvee from Shifting Gears to the list of Zarians—and he indeed looks like one. Now, in his only appearance, Arvee is not identified as a Zarian, but he is repeatedly described as a quadruped —one who can use his forelegs to manipulate a rifle, but one who moves on fours so much that probably couldn't be as erect as your guy. I am reluctant to believe that Arvee and your guy share limb structure. The only confirmed Zarian is Woetar and, considering The Politics of Contraband, he could be a quadruped like Arvee or a biped like your guy. Here I am, trying to discover whether Zarians are quadrupeds or bipeds. Hm… By the way, the 2008 Encyclopedia does not include either Arvee or Zarian, but the Essential Atlas mentions them, not solving this problem.
- On my future participation on the Wookieepedia… I cannot be sure about it, but there were a few tasks that I had started and left unfinished, like Atlatl, and I didn't want to leave like that. However, at least as of now, nominating any article or even objecting a nomination is completely out of question. This does not mean that I cannot improve the 'pedia as far as I can. Of course, it's always a pleasure talking with you. --Skippy Farlstendoiro 18:25, October 7, 2011 (UTC)

Coordinate Challenge map
Edit
Hey, Eyr, does Forum:Coordinate Challenge look messed up to you? The map has suddenly gotten huge, so our X's and circles don't align properly. ~Savage
02:49, October 29, 2011 (UTC)
- Oh, boy! Yes, it did It looks like a new version of the map was uploaded earlier this month, which was larger. As we had not specified an image width, the background changed. I have re-uploaded the previous image at a different location, which has fixed the problem, fortunately. I will add a note to the image so that it is not accidentally deleted or changed again. --Eyrezer

Edit
Hi, Eye. I just archived Iunist's successful CAN, but afterwards I noticed something. If you don't mind, I'll just leave a note here rather than reopening the nomination. Why do you list the price of the hand on Iunist's article? That doesn't seem very relevant to him. Really, everything after "glass dome" could be excised without compromising any information on the article's subject. NaruHina Talk
16:23, November 2, 2011 (UTC)
- I agree to a certain extent. I was about to protest to a request for more context on Mumm for the same reasons. However, it is my view that on CAs, context can be stretched a little further than on GAs for FAs, because there is so little material to work with in the first instance. --Eyrezer 19:39, November 2, 2011 (UTC)
Limbala sector: archived with your unstruck objection
Edit
Sorry to bother you, but my CAN for the Limbala sector was archived with your objection unstruck. I was hoping to resolve that objection here without going through the CA review page. Your objection and my reply were as follows below:
- Luralon Odaay was apparently assassinated in Love is a Warm Blaster. That is significant enough to be mentioned in this article, given Senators generally represent sectors. Is there anything else that can be gleaned for this article? --Eyrezer 07:20, November 1, 2011 (UTC)
- Well I really don't think that the story says that he represented the sector. All it said was that he was from the sector, which could mean that he was merely born there and then became the senator of another. The sector was mentioned in just one spot, so you can't really say anything more about it, since it isn't clear if the sector was the location of his place of birth or if it was the region he represented. What do you think?--Exiled Jedi (Greetings) 16:14, November 1, 2011 (UTC)
Is my reply adequate, or do you think that I still need to add information on his assassination? Again, I am sorry about the confusion here.--Exiled Jedi

Hey Eyre, I reverted your changes to Darth Ruyn and Talon with an explanatory edit summary, but since you reverted back thought I'd leave you a message. Given that all One Sith had red skin due to Sith tattoos, I'd rather not assume he is Lethan based on skin color as it is more likely they are tattoos. If you have a source that actually says Lethan, please source it in the article. Cheers, grunny@wookieepedia:~$ 08:36, November 21, 2011 (UTC)

Ancient business from 2006

I've got quote-sourcing problems dating back to late 2006. Maybe you can help. The source quote for the Barabel article appears to be wrong. Enochf 04:30, January 2, 2012 (UTC)
Barabel quote
Edit
Hi, Eyrezer. A few days age I nominated the following quote from the Barabel article (What are invaders called on Barab I? Prey!) for QOTD. However, one issue keeps it from passing. Enochf and Culator did a text search for the quote in Star by Star but found nothing. After some revision history checking, I found out that you added the quote years ago and later sourced it to Star by Star. Are you sure that the source is correct? If it is so, could you please give us the e.g. the page number where you found the quote? Thanks for your time. Clone Commander Lee Talk 11:57, January 4, 2012 (UTC)

Nevoota in TOR

Hey, Eyre, this is the codex text that mentions the Nevoota on this site. I haven't made it here yet, but this info is corroborated by numerous other sites, so seems quite legit. ~Savage

- Thanks,I have the Codex and will update it soon, now that the Christmas period is over. --Eyrezer 07:12, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
- Good deal. I have the game and will have to stop playing soon now that the Christmas period is over... ;) ~Savage
14:56, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
- One thing I did wonder is whether there is any context from the game that can be added when describing Codex context. Ie. in XX BBY, a group of spacers learned about the Nevoota conflict from a Republic guard, etc. Is there? --Eyrezer 21:24, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
- That's a good question. I'm not sure the Codex is supposed to be an in-universe document or simply something for the player to access. I don't think it's an in-universe document, since new entries automatically appear in it when you reach certain areas or do certain quests. I'd just mention that you get the entry when you get a datacron (a thing that boosts a character attribute) on Tatooine, and keep that description in BTS. ~Savage

Undefined Humans and the problem with planet infoboxes
Edit
Hi! Since you've written a number of planet GAs, I was wondering if you'd be able to help with a small problem that has arisen on the Qui-Gon Jinn's homeworld nomination page. According to the sources, Humans live on the planet, but there's no way of telling whether they are immigrants or native to the planet. I feel the presence of Humans should be mentioned in the infobox, but since there isn't an appropriate field, should it be left out altogether? Or put in the "immigrated species" field like has been done in the Stewjon article for example, regardless of knowing exactly whether they were immigrants of not? I'd really appreciate your input. :) Cheers, Tinwe(comlink) 13:53, January 19, 2012 (UTC)
- Interesting question. I would place it in the Immigrants field, as we have some indication of where humans are from. --Eyrezer 02:31, January 29, 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks for the answer. I actually did place it in the immigrants field, but I thought second opinions would be good since Lee had a problem with it on the nom page. I started a SH thread about this just to be on the safe side, so feel free to chime in if you have the time. Tinwe(comlink) 08:14, February 6, 2012 (UTC)
The Wrath of Darth Maul and the Atrivis (edit: Atravis) Sector

Hi! You asked about the the Atrivis Sector appearing in Star Wars: The Wrath of Darth Maul. When Darth Sidious is traing a three years old Darth Maul on Mustafar, Sidious takes Maul to the planet Tosste for further training. When they arrive, Maul "recognized a cluster of stars and realized they were still in the Atrivis Sector" (page 29). That is what the book says about the sector.

- Delightful! Two follow-up questions: if there much description or plot on Tosste? And where were they before Tosste (that must also have been within the Atrivs sector)? --Eyrezer 19:26, January 26, 2012 (UTC)
- You're right, it's the Atravis sector, not Atrivis. I'm so sorry about this; the names were so similar, and I got them mixed up. Sorry about the trouble... Nightlily 02:15, January 29, 2012 (UTC)
- No trouble, just disappointment! --Eyrezer 02:26, January 29, 2012 (UTC)

Weird Podrace Guy
Edit
It looks like Leland's taken some EU characters and retconned them into being patrons of Watto's box, which is actually pretty cool. The bio will need updating to detail Loba's presence at the Boonta race in 32 BBY, and the BTS needs an update too, describing the retcon. Naru originally CA'd the guy, so I've left a message on his talk page asking if he's interested in updating it. It's also about pickles. Mmmmmmm, pickles. Menkooroo 17:41, January 28, 2012 (UTC)
Gassy/Planty bubbly people
Edit
Hey Eyrezer, I just wanted to give you a heads up that Derrown the Parwan is apparently based off of Revwiens. The third slide on the trivia section under The Box's page on SW.com indicates as much. Cheers! Darth Trayus(Trayus Academy) 05:29, February 6, 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks Trayus. Mauser added a note to this effect in the BTS of Revwien, and at this stage, I am not sure that I can go much further than that. Ie, LFL has not suggested that the Parwen supersede the Revwien, etc. Thanks for the heads-up though. --Eyrezer 06:00, February 6, 2012 (UTC)
Inqmoot 48
Edit
Hey Eyrezer. Please mark your calendar for Inqmoot 48, which will be held on March 4 or 5, depending on your timezone. As always, please leave notes prior to the meeting if you cannot attend. If you don't, this time the newly resurrected Darth Maul will be sent after you. Hope to see you there! CC7567 (talk) 05:48, February 15, 2012 (UTC)
- Hey, Eyrezer. Just reminding you that you're currently on post-Inqmoot paperwork duty, since I think some people are getting a bit antsy to see this finished. Thanks. Toprawa and Ralltiir 02:11, March 9, 2012 (UTC)
SWG Series 6 Gands
Edit
What Gands are pictured, any new info, or is it just a Zuckuss source that I had long since covered? Thanks! Trak Nar Ramble on 03:16, February 26, 2012 (UTC)
- Just a picture of Zuckuss that adds nothing to the article. :) --Eyrezer 07:15, February 26, 2012 (UTC)
Attark in Return of the Jedi
Edit
Hi Eyrezer, I see that your GA Hoover mentions that Attark was visible in Return of the Jedi, lists that in the appearances, etc. Is he actually visible, instead of just in promo photos? I have never actively looked for him in the Jabba's Palace scenes, but I do know that Sompeetalay, who knows exactly where to pretty much spot everything there is in the movies, believes he is not visible in the film. Hanzo Hasashi 00:54, March 16, 2012 (UTC)
Your thoughts: I want 'em.
Edit
Hey, Eyre,
We'll be putting GAs on the Main Page soon, and I want to write a NewsNet post to promote it. Even though it won't be an interview, may I interview you? I'm hoping to get a few members of the community to share their thoughts on GAs, and as you've written a whole megaton of them, I'd love to be able to quote you. If it's OK, I'll ask you a few questions, and then summarize them in prose form midway through the article rather than have it be a question-and-answer style interview. Something like "'GAs are like miracle whip,' says Eyrezer, notable member of the Future Farmers of Wookieepedia, 'They taste great on sandwiches.'" The content will probably be a tad more relevant, though. Anyway, is it OK? If so, let me know if I should post the questions here, or via e-mail. It probably won't be for a week or more. Menkooroo 02:28, March 22, 2012 (UTC)
- Email would b best. :) --Eyrezer 05:21, March 22, 2012 (UTC)
- Awesome. Thanks for agreeing to do this. :) I'll probably contact you... within the next week and a half. Menkooroo 14:06, March 22, 2012 (UTC)
- Hey there! Questions have been sent. GAs are nearly set to go live on the Main Page on April 16th, so hopefully we can get the article posted by the end of this week. Thanks again! Menkooroo 19:20, April 4, 2012 (UTC)

Unidentified young recruit
Edit
Hello. I've been working on the article in my sandbox lately (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/User:LelalMekha/sandbox). Of course, the reference is always the same, as this youngling is a one-shot character from a minor game aimed at children... If you may have a look at it and further advice, I'd be glad to read it. Thanks. --LelalMekha 18:13, April 2, 2012 (UTC)
- Well, I'm afraid I won't be able to do much better than tat for the P&T section. I still have one or two other quotes, but they are not very interesting (all of them are like "Do this, you must."). --LelalMekha 09:27, April 4, 2012 (UTC)
I'll try and answer your questions concisely:
- The game merely says the youngling was "sent" to Yoda by Kenobi. So Kenobi probably discovered him, but it's not stated outright.
- It's a bit of assumption, really. I suppose you don't send an ordinary child, Force-sensitive or not, on important (and potentially dangerous) missions like those.
- The Tiperoo wad added by antoher user on the real article's page, so I included it at first. But it doesn't seem to have a role in that, so I'd just take it off in the end of the day.--LelalMekha 11:47, April 4, 2012 (UTC)
- Hello! I haven't added anything new to the sandbox since I answered your questions two days ago. I've been working on another project of mine (User:LelalMekha/sandbox2) that I also would like to nominate as GA some day. As for the "unidentified recruit", I don't think any new content can be added as there's only one source. Nonetheless, there still msut be clarifications or formal issues to fix, I guess.--LelalMekha 10:36, April 6, 2012 (UTC)
Image cats question
Edit
Hey, Eyr. Just a quick question: Is Category:Images of sentient species not supposed to contain the subcategories like Category:Images of Togorians, etc.? That's cool if that's the case, but it seems to make those categories more difficult to find through the categorization tree. Should, perhaps, Category:Images of individuals by species be a subcategory of Category:Images of sentient species? Cheers! ~Savage
14:37, April 8, 2012 (UTC)
- Fair question. My starting point is to have a consistent approach, and there are far more species categories in Category:Images of individuals by species than Category:Images of sentient species, so my initial step was to make these all consistent in the first category and get the alphabetising working (instead of them all being sorted under "space" as had been set up for some reason). Second, Category:Images of individuals by species was already set up as a sub-category of Category:Images of sentient species. In terms of what would be best overall, I am not convinced what specification of the "individuals" part adds to the category. Perhaps it was for consistency with the other categories here. --Eyrezer 00:40, April 9, 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah, I think it was supposed to be parallel to Category:Images of individuals by gender, etc., which is fine. OK, I didn't realize Category:Images of individuals by species was already a subcategory of Category:Images of sentient species. As long as you can get to the categories through both the Individuals tree and the Species tree, we should be OK. ~Savage

interview
Edit
Hey, Eyre. Sorry to keep bugging you about this, but any chance I could get those two interview answers from you? GAs go live on the main page in a week, and I'd like to have the promotional NewsNet post about it up really soon. Sorry again for sounding like a broken record. Menkooroo 05:30, April 9, 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks again for everything. The article is now on Wookieepedia's Main Page! Hooray! Menkooroo 16:55, April 11, 2012 (UTC)
Nevoota Bee
Edit
Hey Eyre; I'm writing up some Essential Guide to Warfare stuff and came across the Nevoota Bee, a ship from the Clone Wars. As I was writing the article up, I noticed that you had GAed Nevoota (species) and included the "Nevoota Bee joke". I've incorporated it into the article, rewriting it so as to avoid direct copying of your text, but was hoping you might give it a once over and see if you feel that it needs further altering at all since I intend to GA it. Thanks in advance. - Cavalier One
(Squadron channel) 20:17, April 11, 2012 (UTC)
- Looks good to me. Are you planning on mentioning Netoova - the planet or species - in the body of the article at all? --Eyrezer 23:11, April 13, 2012 (UTC)
- Not sure, to be honest. Although the correlation/ reference is obvious, it's not explicitly stated. Linking to the articles through the word Nevoota should be okay though, right? - Cavalier One

Need some help
Edit
Hey, Eyre. I'm wondering if you can help me out. GAs are set to go live on the Main Page in twenty-four hours --- you're online right now; is there a chance you'll be online around the same time tomorrow? I'm looking to recruit an admin to add the Good article queue to the Main Page between now and that time, along with the first two bullet points here. I'm also hoping that the snowballs here (votes 1, 2, 3, and 5) can be closed in order for it all to be official. Anyway, let me know if you can help me out. I'll be on IRC for the next few hours if you need any clarification. Thanks. Menkooroo 00:15, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
- Hey! Tope suggested I ask an admin in IRC to lower the Main Page's protection settings so that I can add the queue myself. In which case, you don't need to be online at any specific time. No pressure anymore. :P Menkooroo 02:46, April 15, 2012 (UTC)

Stieg-Fan
Edit
This just popped up on the random CA on the Main Page, and on reading it, I noticed a problem: the article portrays them as a species, but the book does not call them a species. I believe Category:Undefined social groups applies here, as we don't know if this is a species, a planetary demonym, or something else. What do you think? —MJ— Council Chambers Wednesday, April 18, 2012, 20:33 UTC

PorRandom
Edit
Hey, Eyre, I'm wondering about the various pages with the random species pic selections in them: User:Eyrezer/PorRandom3, User:Eyrezer/PorRandom2, etc. Would it be possible to just create one random selector box and then repeat it on the same page six times? The downside is that it could potentially select the same species twice in one page load, but that might be a small price to pay to avoid having to maintain six separate pages. Just a thought; might make the page prettier while saving our sanity. :) ~Savage
14:43, May 5, 2012 (UTC)
- Followup: I just tested it, and got eight Amorphiians. So I guess it doesn't work. I wonder if there's a way to force it, though. I'm just a bit antsy of having to update eight different pages... ~Savage
14:45, May 5, 2012 (UTC)
- Good points. I think having only one random page would result in duplicate portals each presenting the same species, which is why I have split the lists into separate parts. The pages do not overlap, ie A-C, D-F, so that only one page would need to be edited each time a new article was promoted, rather than all 8 each time. For example, once Vodran is promoted, it only needs to be added to PorRandom7. I would also be happy to only update the random lists every month or so, rather than necessarily every time an article is promoted, which would reduce the maintenance.
- Additionally, not sure if you noticed this, but on the master page, I added a "Refresh" link, which purges the cache and presents 8 new articles. --Eyrezer 23:44, May 5, 2012 (UTC)
- Ah, OK. If the eight pages are separated by letter, that makes it easier. And, yeah, let's just see how it goes to decide whether we need to update it once a month or once an article passes. Articles are passing at such a slow rate right now that it wouldn't be too onerous to update one-by-one, for instance. ~Savage

First GA
Edit
Why, thank you Eyerezer. I was thinking about it, I must confess. I'm absolutely willing to "upgrade" the young recruit article, but it may be a bit too soon for that. I have other potential GANoms in mind, and I'm currently already working hard on the Charal article. Of course, this one too will need the help of native speakers, in order to avoid my speaking like Pr. Van Helsing in Bram Stoker's Dracula. ;-) --LelalMekha 14:40, May 18, 2012 (UTC)
