[edit] Nominating a Quote

Yes, hello. I'm a new Wookieepedian, but have been using the site for quite some time now.

I'd like to know where I nominate a quote on the In-Universe Quote-of-the-day page. I can't figure out where the link is, or however it is done. Help? The quote is:

Wedge Antiles: "Phanan, Face, still Seven and Eight. I'd hate to break up the best comedy team this side of the janitor's closet."
Ton Phanan: "I love an understanding commander. Know where I can get one?"
--Wedge Antilles and Ton Phanan, discussing pilot assignments for Wraith Squadron

I found the page, templates, etc., but I can't figure out how to do the nomination itself. I'd appreciate the help, and thanks!

• Well, to be honest, I've never nominated a quote myself, so I don't know. -- SFH 15:56, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
• Thanks. Do you know anyone who I might be able to talk to about it? WikiWookiee113 02:43, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Nomination for Offical Friends

Hi!

I run The Lightsaber Wiki and was wondering if you could nominate my wiki to be an Offical Friend.

And how do you do that?

And also I could let some other Wookieepedians onto my wiki to boost it's publicity

Thanks,

I'm not entirely sure how one would go about nominating another site for official friend, though I think you can nominate it yourself. -- SFH 18:08, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

But does anybody else know that I could talk to?

Cam12343 18:10, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

I don't know, sorry. -- SFH 18:13, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit] 2.3 Expansion

hey, im really confused. I was just playing around typing in fictional names into search to see if they were real sw names (long story). when i typed in Darth Rex, it brought up a page saying, "Welcome Darth Rex!" I didn't log in or anything on purpose, and when i searched wookieepedian names, darth rex didn't show up! REally confused. Thanks. a really confused noob72.73.84.226 16:58, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

According to our logs, Darth Rex hasn't contributed in over two years, so it isn't you. -- SFH 22:43, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

Ok thanks.72.73.84.226 00:48, 14 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Spam Triger Error

Hey when I try to edit my userpage I get an error saying:

The page you wanted to save was blocked by the spam filter. This is probably caused by a link to an external site. The following text is what triggered our spam filter: user:patx Return to User:PATX.

The text I tried to put on there was:

hey my name is ~~~~

ANy help would be grate thanks -- patx 20:13, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

I wouldn't know how to help you, sorry. -- SFH 20:49, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] subst:w

Nice of Wikia to be slow enough to let us welcome a few of our own, eh? :D Graestan^(Talk) 00:26, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

• I actually feel like I something to do for the first time in weeks. -- SFH 00:31, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] I honestly do not know why I haven't done this before

The Pit Droid Award of Diligence

I, Graestan the Mighty, Merciless, and Wise, being of certifiably unsound mind and hopelessly unfit body, hereby bestow upon you, SFH the Devout, with the Pit Droid Award of Diligence for your years of tireless commitment to the site. You've come to be known as the very definition of new user welcomes; {{subst:w|SFH|~~~~}} is a veritable mini-meme among Wookieepedians of any length of userhood on this site. Most importantly of all, you welcomed me. :P May you continue your endless toil despite Wikia's (and User:Wikia's) best efforts to take your job away. Carry on, tarry not, tally ho, sally forth, excelsior, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, et al. Graestan^(Talk) 04:13, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

• Thank you! :) -- SFH 04:17, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
  • Hey, I've been wanting to contact you, but I noticed you don't have a Wookieepedia e-mail set up. Could you perhaps e-mail me? Graestan^(Talk) 03:07, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
• I'll have to get back to you on that, I'll be setting up a new email account soon. -- SFH 03:31, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
  • Would you mind popping by IRC? I have a question for you that requires a bit more back-and-forth than usual. Graestan^(Talk) 22:28, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] New Positions

I was thinking, should there be designated or at least recognized authorities on lesser known topics in the real universe which montor references to those thigns on Wookieepedia? Such as languages, religions, cultures or history which is lesser known to the greater public. I have seen some honest mistakes made by people when refering to lesser known topics (in discussons or behind the scenes or other real world based facts). I am aware that this may not work due to so many positions being added or it may simply go against some policy or admins' personal site related interests. I also realize this is a reason why refeernces are required. --Darth shohet 01:08, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Wookieepedia in New Language

Who do I ask to make a Star Wars wiki on Wikia in Wookieepedia format in a different language? And yes, I checked and it hasn't been created yet. --Darth shohet 21:49, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

You have to go to Wikia for that. -- SFH 22:01, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

Any idea as to where I should/could start? --Darth shohet 16:47, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

I don't know, I've never tried to start a wiki before. -- SFH 18:09, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] The Timeline on the Legacy of the Force page.

I remove it because it was based on dates given by Sue Rostoni and Lord Hydronium told me that Sue stated somewhere that her dates were screwy, meaning that the timeline itself is screwy.

I actually acknowledged this on the relevant talk page, but once again I apologize. -- SFH

Just wanted to mention that I found where said her timeline was wrong and added a link to it in the section I started on the LOTF article's talk page so there would be some proof of the timeline being wrong.Mbruno 03:47, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Any Idea Why I'm getting This Message

I was going revert your reversion of my edit and it keeps saying Removing (or "blanking") much or all of the text on a page is not permitted except in specific circumstances. Please confirm that this is deliberate. If confirmed, this edit will be reviewed by an administrator. What do I do? Also, sometime when I clicked save page it just goes to a blank white page.Mbruno 02:37, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Probably just loading difficulties on the blank page. -- SFH 03:43, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

What about that message? How do I confirm?Mbruno 03:48, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

It's due to a filter that the we have put in place to warn new users when they attempt to remove large amounts of information to make sure it is what they want to do. To confirm you simply save, and the edit will be flagged so an administrator can check that it wasn't vandalism. Grunny ^(Talk) 03:52, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] RE: Welcome!

Thanks for welcoming me to this Online-Dictionary! I am happy to be here. I hope my edits on this online-dictionary would be very helpful. I <3 Star Wars very much, that's why I go to this Online-dictionary. If there is anything I can do to help this online-dictionary. My friend Doctor Hax might be coming to this online-dictionary soon, and hopes to be in help this online Online-Dictionary too. Jeez, how many times did I say Online-Dictionary. LOL! XD Thanks again. --Mega Sean 45 22:34, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

Just to let you know SFH, this Doctor Hax is actually a sockpuppet of Mega Sean 45. He caused trouble elsewhere, for instance at Combine OverWiki (where they are both blocked), so be careful. Klow 22:39, September 30, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] No offense, but...

I think that Dark Empire should be ousted from Canonocity. Just think about it. Would anyone ever DARE to pick on Boba Fett (DE2)? Or how could an antique gun shoot down Slave I? And how come all these Jedi had families? Don't you see a problem in that?—B-Boba Fett! He'll kill us all! 20:36, October 2, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Wookieepedia Cleanup

Hello. I'm Gmalek. For the past week, I have been searching for answers. It goes kind of like this: My friend used to contribute to this site, about a year ago. He left, also a long time ago. I was just seeing if his page was still here, and I saw that it was. I figured that pages like these get deleted after a long time. So I looked up more Wookieepedians who had left, and two of the ones I found had left nearly two years ago. So I asked JangFett and Chack Jadson, hut they haven't giving me the answers yet. So here is my question? How long does it take for someone to send someones userpage to the Trash Compacter? I would greatly appreciate your help. --Gmalek 18:17, October 11, 2009 (UTC)

Userpages are only deleted if they violate policies. If a user is absent for over a year, then then the page will be marked with an inactive template. -- SFH 18:26, October 11, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Questions

Greetings! Please call me your highness when u direct me. only kidding, my username is Princess Leia well not in the entirety but u know what i mean, anyway a few questions, how do people get ahold of some of these pictures? Darth Vader never tortured Leia in a new hope, and it was Luke who killed Darth Vader, ok not really, but how?--Princess Leia Organa Skywalker Solo 00:30, October 21, 2009 (UTC)

It's also kin of hard to keep track if we have messages is it's all posted on the talk page we asked questions on, could u please make one exception 4 me and send me ur answer on my question above?--Princess Leia Organa Skywalker Solo 00:40, October 21, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] IRC

Are you "SFH (n=shennebe@unaffiliated/sfh)" on IRC? We've had a minor issue with impostors lately, and it's at least mildly suspicious to have an admin show up (who has, as far as I know, never used our IRC before) with a cloak that doesn't go through Wikia confirmation. -- Darth Culator ^(Talk) 17:05, November 8, 2009 (UTC)

Sorry this took so long to answer (I was traveling today) but to answer your question no, that is not me. -- SFH 03:33, November 9, 2009 (UTC)
