[edit] Shem-Lern's ship

Thanks for your contribution but you can see I just created the article so just let me enough time to finish what I've started. Thanks and best regards. Klow 21:59, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

• Sorry, thought you were done. A lot of folks tend to just make very simple articles and leave it at that (not suggesting you do this, mind). I noticed that this was the case while cleaning out the Starships and Vehicles categories.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 22:01, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Expanding your vocabulary

For your edification. --Qwo 06:11, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] RE:Zaerdra

Hmm, maybe it's only for my computer or dial-up users. Anyway, I'm can't show you a shot of how it looks to me because my computer doesn't have the capability to do so. I checked again and it's still in front for me but if it works for other people, then I guess there's no problem. I'll go for the nomination now. NaruHina ^Talk 00:13, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

• Thanks mate. And in future, every computer has the capacity to take a screenshot. Just press the Print Screen button located next to F12, open up a graphic arts program (MS Paint will work) then Paste the shot in like you would text.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 00:16, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Massacre at Ossus FA Nomination

At least some of the objections have been fixed by know, can you check it out so you can start striking them out. Besides some of your objections are ridicule such as

"These two sentences are just...horrible. "Unknown to him was that, that relationship between his Empire and the Jedi Order could never happen. The Jedi would never be loyal to an Empire supporting Siths, something Darth Krayt knew and one of the main reasons he planned the Massacre"

Yet I also fixed those "horrible" sentences. Dookurules338 13:40, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

• It is the accepted format to respond to objections by replying to each one on the FAN page itself. Please do so in the future, following the example of other FA writers when they respond. Anyway, I have to be honest with you, as it stands, this article has little chance of becoming an FA.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 14:04, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re:

• Okay, I just haven't gotten back that far down the list yet. Atarumaster88 ^{(Talk page)} 19:56, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Bugslut

I can't take credit for Denning's dialogue—it is Lumiya who calls her bugslut, in case you didn't know! But by "the two major sections", you mean the Mission to Myrkr and the From Coruscant to Ebaq 9, right?

Thanks for the input. I'm racing to get up to The Joiner King done before I go away on Monday…

Harrar 23:16, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hey Goodwood

Anymore word on the KOTOR project? I mean do we need to expand any more articles or anything? Devan2 21:04, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Can't Come

I have to attend an amesh meeting that weekend in Montana. *I know.* So I won't be able to attend the IRC meeting on that Saturday. NaruHina ^Talk 06:32, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

• Understood. If possible, please attempt to enter the WP:KOTOR channel to discuss things either before or after the meeting.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 13:37, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Meeting

I will do my best to come. I dont have anything planned for that weekend at the moment, but obviously if something does come up my own personal life comes before this site, hope you understand. - –K.A.J^{•T•C•E•} 09:47, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

• Understood. Thank you for your reply. Hope to see you at the meeting!--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 12:32, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Duplicate Article Dispute

This is Admiral Jolyon. Can we talk about the Speedy Deletions you are doing? (Admiral jolyon 13:33, 6 July 2008 (UTC))

• I know who you are by your sig. In regards to the CSDs, it's because you chose to unilaterally decide what was best for a number of articles, despite the fact that they were created by an Administrator with a considerable amount of experience on the wiki. I suggest that, in future, you take it up with the person before performing edits of that nature.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 13:37, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
  • I have asked the Administrator Thefourdotelipsis to discuss this, he has "not" responded. Perhaps I am impatient, but I worry about forgetting about the matter to often. I do want to help him but what he has done is also duplicated some articles as well. (Admiral jolyon 13:41, 6 July 2008 (UTC))
    • Patience, my young apprentice. He will either respond or not.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 13:43, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
      • Indeed. As you'll note, Admiral jolyon, he hasn't edited any pages since well before you left that message. He's probably away from his computer. Since people DO sleep, it may be several hours before you get a reply. jSarek 13:45, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

• Please forgive me. If you and other administrators can bring this to the Senate (if that is what it is called?) and we come to an agreement that will help a lot. I sometimes assume that it is the same time as the other party and I guess that asssumption is normally wrong. Note: It is my birthday today, I am 19 today (Admiral jolyon 13:48, 6 July 2008 (UTC))
  • Congratulations. However, may I suggest that you perhaps hold off on that? As the saying goes, sometimes we can make mountains out of molehills. Remember, part of editing here is the assumption of good faith on behalf of other users.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 13:51, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
• Right. I assume you have Star Wars: TIE Fighter? (Admiral jolyon 13:55, 6 July 2008 (UTC))
  • Unfortunately, the pleasure of playing the X-wing/TIE Fighter/Alliance series of games has thus far been denied me. As such, I am unfortunately in no position to lend assistance in regards to those articles.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 13:57, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
• That is unfortunate. My reasons for making Z-Jumimi into "Jumimi" was because of game engine statistics.(Admiral jolyon 14:01, 6 July 2008 (UTC))

• • As for my claim for duplicate articles I made one called Omar (Deep Space Manufacturing Facilities) and "Thefourdotelipsis" made similar ones called Omar 1, 2 and 3 which have the same plot summary, minus the part that they were destroyed. (Admiral jolyon 14:18, 6 July 2008 (UTC))

[edit] Project

My apologies, but I cannot come to the meeting. Please understand, and do not destroy my planet. Darthan the destroyer 22:08, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

• Don't worry, I won't destroy your planet...Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 03:49, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Contact

Hey, please meet me in IRC at your earliest convenience. Thanks.—Tommy9281 ^{(Peace is a lie)} 22:18, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Meeting

Thanks for letting me know about the metting, Goodwood. Unfortunately, my library doesn't allow chat rooms, so I will not be able to attend the meeting. Could you give me more info on what's going on beacuse I really do believe in this project, and don't want to stop being a part of it.--Jedi Kasra (talk) 17:53, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

• I left a similar note on the forum for the meeting on the project page, and would like to express some concerns now, since I willnot be able to attend. I'm not naming any names, since it's not my style, but when I nominated Darth Malak for the GA, a few of the users at the time who were a part of the project seemed unwilling to help me, even though it's one of the main focuses of the project. I feel that when an article is nominated that is a focus of the project, no matter who nominated it, it should be improved by all members of the project if available.--Jedi Kasra (talk) 18:33, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Darth Traya

I would like to start a copy-edit for the Kreia article, where the users involved in the project can go and edit Kreia as needed. Will that be alright?--Jedi Kasra (talk) 18:57, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re:WP:KOTOR Reorg Meeting

Saturday will probably be a busy day for me, so I might not be able to make it to the IRC meeting, sorry. -- I need a name (Complain here) 11:41, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

• Goodwood: I too will not be able to make the meeting tonight. I apologize. Master Aban Fiolli ^{{Alpheridies University ComNet}} 15:19, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] KOTOR group

I am still interested although I will not be able to make the meeting. I will be out of town.

[edit] RE:meeting

yo, Goodwood its me, Zhran. I won't be able to attend the meeting, im sorry. i want to continue on the project however--Zhran 20:26, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Binding Ceremony

Hey,

If you're still around, the beginning of the (gamemechanics) template in the Legacy section needs to be moved to under those two paragraphs I just added there. If not, I'll just grab it sometime later. Thanks.—Tommy9281 ^{(Peace is a lie)} 02:57, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] SOHK--REC

Sir Goodwood,

At your earliest convenience, a favor from you I can use please, in my restricted editing capacity. If you click on my name as it appears in my signature, you will find the Anvil. Under the section titled, "SOHK", please add a duel infobox directly under the title for me? With that, please add one of these: Image:.jpg at 250px?

Also, there is a section titled "video games", with which you are well versed, much more so than I. I would appreciate any input you could lend in that area. You add to it or just give me advice, however you see fit. Of course, should you choose to, I will credit your assistance graciously.

If you can manage these things for me, I would be be most appreciative, and quite indebted to you. Thanks.—Tommy9281 ^{(Peace is a lie)} 04:18, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

• If I've understood your request correctly, than what you have asked for has been done. It was no trouble at all, and please feel free to mercilessly edit what has been put there. :-) Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 07:13, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Template for Sepan Campaign

This is Admiral jolyon. Requesting a new template for the Sepan campaign. (Admiral jolyon 09:09, 26 July 2008 (UTC))

• This is Field Marshal Goodwood. Much regret, unable (MRU). Perhaps a more skilled being could serve you better.--Field Marshal Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 09:55, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

• Roger that. Unfortunate. I assummed that given your ability to make Featured Articles, images, etc. I thought you could make a template like the Aftermath of Hoth. Do you know anyone who can? (Admiral jolyon 10:38, 26 July 2008 (UTC))

[edit] Drunost

I just wanted to say thanks for your help on the Drunost article. :) Much appreciated - Aqua Unasi 19:38, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

• It was no problem at all. Hopefully we've both learned something. :-) Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 21:13, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Duel on the Star Forge

I'd like to close this TC thread out, and as you're the nominator as well as head of the KOTOR team, I figured I'd ask if you'd do the honor of the merger. Thanks. Graestan^(Talk) 03:00, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

• I'd be more than happy to do the merger, yes, as it was my intention to eventually FA Battle of Rakata Prime, however the current TC looks like it's stuck at "no consensus". Thank you for asking.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 05:01, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Republic Army

• The image on Republic Army is actually an image of Republic Crewman. Crewman is a navy term. And if you see the image that it was cropped from, you will notice that they are in the bridge of a Hammerhead-Class Cruiser. That is not army.
  

  

  Original image..
  • Within both KotOR games, both army and navy soldiers are shown with the same uniforms. Specifically, in the Ludo Kressh's tomb sequence of KotOR II, the Exile encounters a vision of forces of the Republic that served under her at the Second Battle of Dxun. They are wearing the exact same uniforms, both enlisted and officer, as those shown in the above picture.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 06:59, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
    • But, the image was cropped from a picture of the republic navy, was it not? Nebulax 07:00, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
      • Possibly. However, in both games, the uniforms are used interchangeably. Therefore the assumption that the uniforms could represent the Army is a plausible one.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 07:02, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
        • The image is still of Repulbic Navy Members...
        • It doesn't matter if they wear the same uniforms; if it's not a picture of the Army it doesn't belong in the Army article. - Lord Hydronium 07:05, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
          • Your pardon, but the assumption is still a logical one. That, and the picture has been there for nearly two years.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 07:10, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
            • Again, it doesn't matter what you assume about the uniforms. It's not a picture of the Army. It doesn't belong in the Army article. Do not put it back in. - Lord Hydronium 07:15, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
              • Yes, your highnessness.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 07:21, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Edly Fasalk

Thanks for seeing to the objections on the Edly Fasalk GAN. I've been ill for the past week and haven't really been able to focus on a computer screen until recently. Many thanks! - Cavalier One^{(Squadron channel)} 14:07, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

• No problem mate, was happy to help.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 14:10, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Laigrek

Hi, I noticed that after Laigrek reached FA status, you went and reverted a number of edits made by Toprawa and Ralltiir when he copy-edited the article as part of his Inquisitorius review. Also, changes you made which Toprawa requested in his review have been overturned, as well. I believe that this edit was in bad faith, and is most likely a reduction in quality from the article's final state when it passed review. Also, Toprawa and Ralltiir would not have approved the article with such portions that he removed. Mind you, Toprawa is an a very precarious position to go around reverting your bad-faith reverts, and I suspect there is more to these actions than is clearly shown by your changes, which are in violation of WP:POINT and the FA rules, as well as rather uncivil in their subversiveness. I am going to revert the edits, and a response with valid reasoning for your actions would be appreciated. Graestan^(Talk) 22:45, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

• While it is certainly understandable that you should feel this way about what I did to the Laigrek article, please understand that it was not done with any ulterior motive. In all honesty I felt that the article was of better quality this way, and having played the game from which it was derived multiple times, it was also felt that this gave me a better perspective on the subject (To add context to that remark, Toprawa himself has never played the game; this is not a failing, but something that should be considered). I cannot and therefore will not attempt to debate the validity of policy violations inherent in the edit. I would ask, however, that you allow me to demonstrate how my version (the one you reverted) was better; at the same time, perhaps we could come to a compromise between the two versions.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 23:07, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
  • Pointing out Toprawa's supposed failings is the absolute last thing I wanted to be reading.

You have been blocked from editing for two weeks for violating WP:POINT and subverting the FAN process, particularly Rule 17. To contest this block, please contact the blocking administrator with the reason you believe the block is unjustified. Graestan^(Talk) 23:15, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] The Meeting

Goodwood I regret not being able to attend the wp:kotor meeting held on Friday the 18th. The reason I couldn't attend was because i had gone abroad. Sorry once again.Devan2 05:59, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] I, Jedi

Since I see you are working on I, Jedi and have the "in use" tag on it, just wanted to point out that I, Jedi is no longer the only item of fiction written entirely in the first-person. - JMAS ^{Hey, it's me!} 00:13, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Bao-Dur

Could we please try and add to the personality section of the Bao-Dur page? Thanks Devan2 14:10, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hey

Hey, Goodwood. Haven't been here in a while, but I'm back now. Wanted to let you know, and will get working on Kreia's article.--Jedi Kasra (talk) 17:12, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Black Vulcar Base Article

Goodwood sir we need some pictures for the black vulcar base article how many should we aim to put in the article? Devan2 21:02, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

• At least three: one for the infobox showing the main level (which is there), one composite picture that shows the maps to both areas of the base, and a third, of the garage level.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 22:12, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
• Got it thanks sir. Devan2 15:58, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Good friend

[edit] Good looks

Tommy9281 has awarded you a Wookiee Cookie! Thanks for adding vital KOTOR info to several TOTJ articles, and for your insight into the world of video game duels.

You've helped me tremendously in my time here, and I can't thank you enough. Cheers to you, Goodwood.—Tommy9281 ^{(Peace is a lie)} 20:01, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

• Thanks for the award, mate. The pleasure was all mine. :-) Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 23:25, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Kreia

How come there's an edit war about the Kreia article? I wanted to make a few edits to the page but I recently found out about it. What happened sir? And can we do anything about it? I mean help or come to a conclusion to the article? Devan2 21:10, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Greek?

You have a userbox which containing greek letters(αθεος).I am from Greece(and atheist too) and I want to ask you if there are other userboxes written in Greek.spartan-53 Darth Odysseas 09:54, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Zaerdra

• FYI, Toprawa isn't quite satisfied with some of the objections on this nom, so if you're still interested in pursuing it, you might want to e-mail him about the matter. Thanks. Atarumaster88 ^{(Talk page)} 04:15, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
  • I've attempted to contact him before and he was singularly uninterested in communicating. It would be nice if he could take the time to work things out on the FAN page.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 08:09, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
    • I heard differently; the above talk page post came about after he suggested that you two e-mail or otherwise discuss it privately, but it's your call. I'd say this is a good case to assume good faith and attempt to make inroads on the nomination again. Atarumaster88 ^{(Talk page)} 20:27, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
      • Alright then, I'll have a go at it. Edit: Actually, there's one small problem...I haven't got a clue what his e-mail address is; it's not on his userpage.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 23:33, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
