Huttese writing system 
Edit
Hello jSarek. As you are our "in-house expert" for linguistics, I wanted you opinion about this discovery. While playing SWTOR, I noticed Black Sun graffitis on Coruscant, and it seemed some of them were written in "Nal-Huttese". Of course, I checked, compare with the available, fanmade font available online (the 26 letters version). It clearly fits, and the graffiti reads "Black Sun". Would that mean, according to you, this font has been "canonized"? LelalMekha 20:14, January 23, 2012 (UTC)
- I'll keep my eyes open for Huttese inscriptions, anyway. And I'll see if it keeps being readable. Until now, I also spotted another inscription that can be read "The sun shall rise".LelalMekha 10:19, January 24, 2012 (UTC)
"Sith writing" in the Book of Sith Edit
By the way, when analyzing the text that was given in the Book, I noticed a couple interessants facts about this script. Here are my conclusions:
"Sith language was generally written from left to right in horizontal lines. Consonants were constructed by the combination of a long vertical stroke and various hooks or barbs. The vowels were indicated by diacritics which appeared above the consonant which preceded. When vowels came at the beginning of a word or stood on their own, the diacritics appeared alone. Some glyphs represented compound consonants, like mw or tsw." Would it be considered original research? I think it's only a matter of thorough and careful observation of the text.

- I'll try to ask the one who actually created the sith language used in this book. I'm quite unsure whether he knows it himself, but we'll see. LelalMekha 19:22, February 1, 2012 (UTC)
SWM wiki Edit
Hey, Tope just closed Wookieepedia:Trash compactor/Star Wars Merchandise Wiki, but we were a little bit unsure about what your suggestion actually means? Does it mean redirecting/merging it into Wookieepedia, or moving the page to Wookieepedia:Star Wars Merchandise Wiki? Cheers, 1358 (Talk) 22:12, March 16, 2012 (UTC)
Pashna and co. Edit
Hey jSarek,
I'm guessing you'll probably update Voren, but I just thought I'd give you a heads-up that since he's now in ANH, he'll likely be retconned into some comic adaptations and (Picture only) sources as well. I have a lot of the adaptations, so I'll do some checking through comics, as well as sourcebooks that include screenshots of the ceremony, tonight. Status reports will come in the form of updates to Voren's "Sources" section. Menkooroo 01:07, April 30, 2012 (UTC)
- Actually, I think I'll wait until I've seen both pages of the article so that I can place Hextrophon too. Should be within the week. Menkooroo 01:24, April 30, 2012 (UTC)
- Actually, I got it tonight. Found him in some adaptation and sourcebook screenshots, but, of course, there was no new info. :) But if you'd like to insert a high-quality picture of his face from ANH somewhere in the article, talk to Culator. Menkooroo 02:21, April 30, 2012 (UTC)
- That's all the article has --- a photo of the group standing on-stage and captions identifying who all the people are. In-universe-wise, Voren will only need to be updated to describe the medal ceremony --- Arhul gives Dodonna the medal to give to Leia to give to Han, and Voren gives Dodonna the medal to give to Leia to give to Luke.

Re: Colonoscopy Edit
I'm glad that there are no "Like" buttons. Seeing them all over TFN is annoying enough. They're prolly lurking in the Oasis skin, but I refuse to check and see. Though, knowing Wikia, adding those would be on their "to do" list. :P Trak Nar Ramble on 04:27, April 30, 2012 (UTC)
A Request for mediation Edit
I am appealing to you to draw your attention to a matter on the administrators noticeboard. I have been unfairly blocked from my user account User: Darth Ceratis for reasons that are untrue and unfair, as I relate in my argument there, by one of your fellow Bureaucrats, user: Darth Culator. I presented my case in a very civil and professional manner, and I’m requesting that you mediate the conflict. Culator has protected the article so I can no longer post in it in any capacity, despite the fact that I have broken no rules of conduct. Additionally, he has extended my block from the maximum of one month (already uncalled for given the original issue) to an infinite one due to “Block evasion.” I have evaded my block only in order to appeal to have it removed, as I have not figured out any other way to do so. I’ve made no other edits than to attempt to plead my case on the admin notice board. I understand that it is generally the policy that administrators do not overrule one another’s decisions, but I firmly believe that Culator is abusing his power regarding his treatment of me, and I would like some neutral parties to involve themselves.216.8.121.1 19:19, May 4, 2012 (UTC)
