Star Wars Fanon:Quote of the Week

 A Quote of the Week is a quote that remains on the Star Wars Fanon Wiki Main Page for a total of seven days, starting on Sunday at 12:00am Eastern Standard Time and lasting until Saturday at 11:59pm Eastern Standard Time. The quote is one that has been chosen by voting users as a quote that represents the best on the wiki.

Good candidates for Quote of the Week should be compelling, engaging, well articulated, and tell an interesting enough story by themselves in order to encourage readers to read more from where it came from, whether it came from an article or a fan fiction story.

Nomination process:

There is a simple process that all Quote of the Week candidates go through in order to be selected as a Quote of the Week. That process is as follows:


 * 1) Any user may nominate a quote from any article or fan fiction story, but only users who meet the voting policy may vote.
 * 2) Quotes are successful after reaching five (5) net votes, which is determined after adding the support and opposition votes. Successful quotes will be placed on the list of upcoming quotes.
 * 3) Quotes are unsuccessful after receiving a net total of negative five (-5) votes, or if they fail to garner any form of consensus after one month of being on the nominations track.
 * 4) All quotes must be sourced. If the quote only appears in an article, the source is the article.
 * 5) Any quote that does not meet the content policy will be removed from the nominations track. It may be removed from the source article as well.
 * 6) Users can use any reason to oppose a nomination. This includes "I don't like the quote," "it's too unbelievable," "it's too long," or anything else. All reasons are acceptable so long as users remain civil.

How to nominate:

When you nominate an article, please use the following nomination form in order to maintain a sense of organization on the nominations track:


 * === Speaker’s name ===
 * ==== Quote (+/-#) ====
 * ==== Support ====
 * ==== Neutral ====
 * ==== Oppose ====
 * ==== Comments ====

Nominations will remain on the nominations track until they become successful, the author removes the nomination, it reaches a consensus of opposition, or it fails to gain the necessary votes to be either successful or unsuccessful after one month. If it is successful, the quote will be added to the list of upcoming quotes.

 * 2) If you don't hate someone, how can they be your enemy? Ty294  {Talk}  03:51, January 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) *You don't have to hate somebody for them to be your enemy. Ever see a movie where the good guy beats the bad guy, but then chooses to forgive him? In this case Jirebon has an enemy that has tried to kill him, but he doesn't hate this man. Clearly, he is indeed his enemy (after all he attempted murder) but Jirebon still doesn't hate him. He respects what he's done, and understands that the would-be murderer did it to benefit themselves. --Wylindsig.png (Conference Room)  05:19, January 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) **Ever seen Revenge of the Sith? Obi-Wan doesn't hate Anakin Skywalker, but is forced to make Skywalker his enemy through the latter's actions. Same with Skywalker when he confronts the hundreds of Jedi since his turn.- Chosen One So the Prophecy says... 22:50, January 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5) ***Whatever, I guess I wouldn't consider anyone my enemy onless I hated them. (But considering someone can hate you while you don't hate them, I guess you guys are right.) Ty294  {Talk}  02:34, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

Quote (+3)
"Eddicus doesn't care about politics. He doesn't care about the bureaucrats. He definitely doesn't care about the corporations and ignores the lobbyists. The only things he does care about are his daughter, his planet, and keeping the Republic together in one piece. Probably in that order, too."

 * 2) It seems to me that the quote contradicts itself, but I am probably reading too much into it, so I will remain neutral. - Chosen One So the Prophecy says... 22:48, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

 * 1) Trying this out. And hey, should I add the links for the words like Ventress or Confederacy? Kreivi Wolter (Talk) 19:28, January 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * No, you should never link to things that are in the actual quote(s), it looks unprofessional. You may link to the section that succeeds the quote though, which you have done.- Chosen One So the Prophecy says... 22:15, January 9, 2010 (UTC)
