Unverified articles
Edit
For the record, adding {{Delete|unverified for over 7 days}} is unnecessary for articles containing a {{Verify}} template. Replacing the template isn't actually all that helpful to administrators, as it removes the article from Category:Verify. Grand Moff Tranner
(Comlink) 16:07, April 16, 2011 (UTC)
- In addition, {{Verify}} turns into {{Delete|unverified for over 7 days}} automatically when the page has been unedited for seven days... :) 1358 (Talk) 16:15, April 16, 2011 (UTC)
A Guide to the SW Galaxy
Edit
Hey Omicron. I noticed A Guide to the Star Wars Universe (Third Edition) listed in your collection. Could you help me a bit by providing the entry on Dewlannamapia? Also could you check if her mate Isshaddik has an entry? QuiGonJinn

Sriluurian=from Sriluur?
Edit
Hey Omicron! I noticed you just removed speculation from the Sriluurian raisin article. I was wondering, though—if "Sriluurian" is the demonym of Sriluur (Geonosis and the Outer Rim Worlds), wouldn't it mean the raisin is from Sriluur? Cheers! Imperators II(Talk) 20:41, April 27, 2011 (UTC)
Speculation
Edit
- Ah sorry I didn't realise that was the policy and should of researched it first my bad. However I feel surely some of the articles including Christophsian sugar aren't speculation as the name clearly uses a word that has already in canon been established to mean from the planet Christophsis or atleast a reference to it? Ayrehead02 21:27, April 27, 2011 (UTC)
- I agree that it dosen't mean its from Christophsis but surely it does mean it is at least a reference to the planet which is what I'd put in the article Ayrehead02 21:35, April 27, 2011 (UTC)
- Fair enough I suppose that does make sense. It just seems a shame since the author of Dining at Dex's says on his blog every piece of food is a reference to something in canon and explaining the most likely reference to the reader seemed useful and interesting. However I understand it's wookieepedia's policy and not your own personal choice and so will stop bothering you. Thanks for pointing out the error in my ways, I'll take it into account when writing future articles Ayrehead02 21:47, April 27, 2011 (UTC)
- Sorry to bother you again after I said I'd stop but on the blog the author states "In naming new food and drink items, one of my goals was make sure that each item had some kind of internal logic or incorporated some kind of joke" meaing presumably each item is a reference to something in canon or real life. If each reference is sourced to this blog are they acceptable to include? Ayrehead02 22:04, April 27, 2011 (UTC)

Hey I recently tried to make an edit on the twi'lek page and it was almost immediately removed. The pointed teeth that twi'leks have is pretty obvious so I'm surprised its not included in their description. As far as females having their teeth filed I believe that it was something that Nolaa Tarkona alluded to when describing her sister Oola. From who she described it, having your teeth flat was a sign of servitude, and that it had been done to Oola when Fortuna kidnapped her. Do you need to verify the info? If you do, could you please reestablish my changes? Thanks. --169.233.34.237 02:46, May 3, 2011 (UTC)

ARC-170 fuselage
Edit
This topic was discussed some time ago and approved by members already. The only thing in the Talk page that has not been settled is if the real-life aircraft was inspiration for the ARC-170. That is why the article never states that it was the inspiration—merely that it resembles it. This is much the same as stating that the name Gallofree bears striking resemblance to the Doctor Who planet, Gallifrey. No one is saying that the fuselage design was taken from it, merely that the fuselages bear striking resemblance to each other. Additionally, if you think it is a problem of verifying whether or not the material has a source, that is what the Fact template is for. It gives members time to justify the statement with a source without removing the section altogether. If no source can be provided in a reasonable amount of time, then the Talk Page is the place to announce why it needs to be deleted. GethralkinHyperwave 19:15, May 3, 2011 (UTC)
- The precedent you used does not apply here. Daigear was stating that Fistful of Dollars was the inspiration of Fistful of Credits, not that it sounded like name of the real life film. GethralkinHyperwave 19:24, May 3, 2011 (UTC)
- Minor speculation is taken on a case-by-case basis, and should never be in the main article text. Ahsoka's ship's emblem, for instance, is acceptable speculation not confined to the Bts (which JMAS ruled in favor of, btw), whereas comments on Ahsoka's fate by RotS is not acceptable in the Bts—nor even on the Talk page. The case of the ARC-170s resemblance to Black Widows (and, for that matter, the resemblance of the Muunilinst 10 LAAT's nose art to P-51 Mustang nose art), however, is more sound because the designers used real-life aircraft for inspiration. Some we know what the inspiration was from (like the Porax-38s), and some we don't. For the ones we don't, we can still state the resemblances—as long as we don't claim they were the inspiration.

CT amendment

about the T-65B
Edit
its the same guy as before. i have never edited a wiki before and have no experience with HTML. i have found some sources that mirror what im saying: (i cant post links yet apparently, bare with me)
star wars RPG detail on X-Wing variants (listed as source already on T-65 main page): google "x-wing.pdf"
Picture of luke skywalker action figure circa 1995 (vehicle of choice: T-65B): google image search "1995 luke skywalker back". should be third image
the guy who edited/or made that page is missing the larger picture. i read shadows of mindor and there is only that one little reference to the T-65B. the book makes no claims about it not appearing in the movies. the episode IV x-wing has been called the T-65B for years and it fits with the lettering progression. The game X-Wing alliance states the rebels are using the newer T-65Cs at that point. the RPG source even states that.
if you are not willing to help me i will try editing the B page myself. im just affraid i will make a mess of it. --FreqiMANN 13:31, August 5, 2011 (UTC)
i thought i did pretty good. did you check the source i put in? it was a wizards of the coast article, copyright LucasFilm. that seems pretty legitimate to me. the main T-65 is quoting the same company. why did you delete?
Thanks I was blind and now I see the diference between appereance an source. Thank you from the Unknown Regions. --Nihilus 22:27, August 8, 2011 (UTC)

We're halfway there
Edit

So guys, we're nearing the halfway point with this barn-burner. I just want to send out a broad message thanking everyone who has and plans on participating in Wookieepedia's second barn-burner, and update you guys on how it's going so far. So far, we have promoted nine Comprehensive Articles, twelve Good Articles, and one Featured Article! Fantastic job everyone who wrote and reviewed those weapons articles, I couldn't have asked for a better group to do so. We also have a number of current Good and Featured Article Nominations currently up, which you can see here.
However, as we approach the halfway point, I do want to encourage you all to keep writing and reviewing weapon articles for the barn-burner. Our goal should be to meet or surpass the level set by the previous barn-burner, which had over forty promoted articles. While we should aim to pass as many articles as possible by the end of the month, I may extend the barn-burner a little into September for any stragglers, especially for those Users who are writing extremely long Featured Articles for the project.
I should also notify participants of a recent Consensus Track over weapons that is about to pass. The CT is over when we should fill in the "Owners" field for Template:Weapon. Right now, it seems as if we are leaning towards filling in the field for unique weapon types, and not filling in the field for general weapon types. As such, we should fix any weapons we have, or will, write for the barn-burner to fit these new parameters. Thanks you for reading this, and keep up the good work.

Scott and Downey
Edit
Hello. I want to know why you're removing the reference to Scott Downey in the articles of Scott and Downey. I am not saying the characters are absolutely a reference to Scott Downey. I'm merely saying that Scott Downey worked on the same Echo Base quest in the Star Wars Galaxies that both the characters Scott and Downey happen to appear in side by side. Ignoring the fact that it would be highly coincidental for the characters Scott and Downey not to be an allusion to Scott Downey, why can't we simply point out that Scott Downey worked as an artist on the Hoth quest, but that no clear link between him and the characters has been made? StarsiderSWG 15:40, August 19, 2011 (UTC)
- You might want to cool it on the remove-speculation-crusade, Omicron. IMO, Starsider is correct to note this in the bts. It's been specifically worded so as not to speculate. If a duo named "Timothy" and "Zahn" were in a Zahn book, we'd note it in the bts. Please heed the advice that others give you and realize that pointing out coincidences is not speculation 100% of the time. Menkooroo 15:55, August 19, 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism?
Edit
I didn't make the edit that you reverted in the TIE/In Starfighter article, but could you explain exactly how that counts as vandalism? --Aerid77 10:48, October 9, 2011 (UTC)
- Technically, it was unverified information, I probably just used the wrong summary. <-Omicron(Leave a message at the BEEP!) 16:10, October 9, 2011 (UTC)
- I was under the impression that it was reasonably well established that TIE was an acronym for twin ion engine. Intro for "TIE Series" article: "The Twin Ion Engine (TIE) series was a series of starfighters and vehicles designed by Sienar Fleet Systems." and a quote from futher down: "The TIE series derived its name from the SIE-TIE twin ion engine" --Aerid77 05:52, October 10, 2011 (UTC)

Hi Omicron! Just messaging to let you know that I worked very hard on that image and I will upload it again, this time with a better source.

I was wondering if Whrr can be considered a droid or not. Whrr is never seen, though Boba hears whrring and clicking, and figures Whrr's a droid. This makes Whrr a droid right? Thanks, 501st dogma(talk) 00:05, May 2, 2012 (UTC)
- Sorry, I was not very clear. Would it be acceptable if I promoted Whrr to a status article for the 4th barnburner as a droid using Boba's figuring as my only proof that Whrr's a droid? 501st dogma(talk) 01:07, May 2, 2012 (UTC)
Katarn's Lightsaber
Edit
But Why? Why does it have to be deleted, is there some rule that says any page that isn't filled out with loads of information must be deleted, if so tell me if not why take it upon yourself?
- Sorry to intrude, Omi, but wasn't I the one who slapped the delete tag? And Katarnisawesome: sorry, but it wasn't the size of the article that killed it. It was the fact that the lightsaber is never explicitly mentioned in canonical sources as being remarkable or notable enough for its own article. If the lightsaber had, say, changed owners, or we had explicit information about it in a reference guide like Mace Windu's lightsaberor Palpatine's lightsaber, or if it had something remarkable about it like Bane's Heart, Anakin Solo's lightsaber, or the Darksaber, then we would keep it. We at the Wook appreciate your enthusiasm, but we have certain rules and community consensuses that must be followed. 20:52, May 11, 2012 (UTC)
Sharmok 718
Edit
Hey Omicron, I saw you added some info to the Sharmok 718 page. Would you mind letting me know on what page(s) of Apocalypse it says all of that? I remember seeing in the Apocalypse article itself that someone had listed the Sharmok 718 as a "Sharmok-class troop transport," but I couldn't find anything at all in the novel that called it as such, which is why I removed the classification from the Apocalypse page and didn't put it on the Sharmok 718 page when I created the article. I also don't remember anything in Apocalypse saying that the planet Olanji was the manufacturer, but I could easily have missed/overlooked both of these things somewhere along the line. Any help pointing me to where this stuff is mentioned would be appreciated. Thanks! :) Jonjedigrandmaster (Talk) 18:50, May 12, 2012 (UTC)
