Joining the community
Hey SavageOpress1138! Sorry if this added message seems a bit overwhelming after the huge welcome message you just received, but what I wanted to say is important enough to re-emphasize it here. I wanted to make sure you were as aware as possible of the fantastic community we have here on the wiki. There is literally so much to do beyond just working on your own articles. I definitely don't want to sound like I'm suggesting you shouldn't work on your own articles, but there's a larger community out there too and we'd all love for you to get involved! If you have any questions about the community, which I strongly encourage you to participate in, don't hesitate to ask me. Thanks, and once again welcome to Star Wars Fanon! – -- Goodwood (Talk) 01:13, 8 April 2011

Userboxes
Hey, I am here to inform you that you will need to move half of the userboxes on your user page to an appropriate sub page. Userbox policy states that users are allowed no more than 20 userboxes on a userpage. Any extra are required to be removed or moved. To review the policy, visit this page. Thank you.- I'm the Chosen One You must see it... 22:15, April 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * User:SavageOpress1138/Userboxes would be an example of a sub page for your userboxes. You basically need to have "  I'm the Chosen One You must see it... 23:27, April 25, 2011 (UTC)

User:SavageOpress1138/Userboxes is the exact coding, in case you are still confused.- I'm the Chosen One You must see it... 23:30, April 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * You don't need categories, at least, not that I am aware of. It is connected to your userpage technically.- I'm the Chosen One You must see it... 00:25, April 26, 2011 (UTC)

Chatting
Hey SavageOpress1138, I want to ask the questions for you. What is the planet that battles between droids and clone army on the surface in Star Wars Episode 2? --Videogamer13 (Talk) 10:45, April 26, 2011 (UTC)

How did Anakin Skywalker became Darth Vader? --Videogamer13 (Talk) 17:59, April 26, 2011 (UTC)

Re:Spam
I am aware and have already contacted administration to handle it.- I'm the Chosen One You must see it... 21:52, April 26, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, the help is no big deal. I appreciate the help too.- I'm the Chosen One You must see it... 21:55, April 26, 2011 (UTC)

Re:Wikipedia link
Yes, use to link to Wikipedia.- I'm the Chosen One You must see it... 01:17, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

Re: Linking
Hi. There are two ways you can do that. One is to use. If you want to rename what it says, you would write, much like the sw template. You can also use article name repeated, and you can replace "article name repeated" with your own text as well. It's just that even if you don't rename it, you still have to put the name of the article you're linking to twice. I hope that helps! - Brandon Rhea  (talk) 01:23, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

Re: GA Question
Hey, you actually can nominate it, you just can't vote for it. You can put up a nomination without a vote. Also, if you add in a Powers and abilities section and make sure the introduction is at least 200 words, you'll have all of the required sections for FA status&mdash;which you can nominate an article for without going through the GA process first. The article seems extensive enough to where that information should be readily available, or at the very least simpler to think up.

As for seeing if it's up to the requirements completely, I can take a look at it sometime in the next few days. I'm not sure when I'll be able to, since it's the beginning of final's week, but I can definitely take a look at some point this week. - Brandon Rhea  (talk) 00:57, May 2, 2011 (UTC)

Re: Formatting
It's just a habit to link pretty much everything that I can recall has an article, including years. They don't need to be linked, though, if you don't want them to be. Just a habit from nightly editing sprees.  Trak Nar  Ramble on 00:52, May 5, 2011 (UTC)

Re:Image Link Question
This is how you do it:File:Imagename.jpg, the coding looks like this: File:Imagename.jpg. You need to add a colon before "File" in the coding. - I'm the Chosen One You must see it... 21:42, May 5, 2011 (UTC)

Re:Question
The reason it doesn't show the portrait infobox picture, sometimes, is that it cycles the pictures shown for each article (if there is more than one picture). My Amber Solaris article once showed the picture of one of my other characters, because it cycles through the images on the page. The category picture does not always reflect who the character is or their infobox picture. Hence alien pictures in the Human category, a different picture for your FAN article, etc.- I'm the Chosen One You must see it... 19:56, May 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, the aliens being in Human articles can't be helped since it is a product of the image cycling. It definitely not your fault, unless you secretly know how to edit the coding for the category page. :P I am here to help, so it wasn't a problem.- I'm the Chosen One You must see it... 20:08, May 8, 2011 (UTC)

It doesn't really cycle through images. When it shows the incorrect ones, it's generally a glitch, because it's meant to show the first image on the page as the first image is generally what represents the article. That said, I'm seeing the infobox image on every category you linked me to, so if there was a glitch then it was resolved.

Also, about the image question you asked me a few days ago (sorry I never got back on that), did you add the lightsaber blade in, or was that from the YouTube video? - Brandon Rhea  (talk) 21:13, May 8, 2011 (UTC)


 * It's correct to an extent, but you should really find that YouTube video. Try looking through your search history. - Brandon Rhea Alliance Starbird.svg (talk) 21:26, May 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Link to it in the "source=" field of the image template on the file description page (you can click the Edit button on that page). State that it's a screenshot from it. - Brandon Rhea Alliance Starbird.svg (talk) 00:16, May 9, 2011 (UTC)

Hi Savage. I got your message and I want to say thanks for the headsup. I wasn't aware that my template automatically inseerts my username. AGain, thanks :)-- BrettKenobi(Talk) 12:25, May 11, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the message. I was trying to link the sonic characters into the Mobius Encyclopaedia but it keeps giving me redlinks. Do you know how to link those pages to the encyclopedia? NOTE: I'll also categorize the article too! -MarioRocks2 (Talk) 18:35, May 14, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks
Hey just wanted to say thanks for you helping me. I am new at this so I don't know that much about how to code all the stuff, but I am figuring most of it out. And i found the categories button at the bottom. Thanks again.--Atin Ordo (Talk) 20:25, May 16, 2011 (UTC)

info
ok, might as well explain now... All the articles of characters I'm making are my actual friends with Mandalorian names. I am writing a fan fiction book involving me, Atin Ordo, and all of them. So I only talk to them at certain times, and i have yet to get information from all my friends on what their characters biography is, so right now, im just setting up the pages. Hope that is understandable.--Atin Ordo (Talk) 20:38, May 16, 2011 (UTC)

ok

Images from Wookieepedia
Thanks for helping me out with the images. I hope it's not too much trouble, and if so, you don't have to do it anymore. But thanks for the two you did, it was a real favor!--ARC Commander Colt (Talk) 23:33, May 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * That's good. I just don't know how to do it, and I'm glad someone does. Thanks again!--ARC Commander Colt (Talk) 23:43, May 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the two of Deliah. I'll let you know if I need more.--ARC Commander Colt (Talk) 19:40, May 17, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks again! Really hope this isn't a bother. I'm glad someone knows how to do it. I'll try to keep it down to 2 or 3 images a day, although I sometimes may need more. You've been lots of help so far!--ARC Commander Colt (Talk) 23:45, May 17, 2011 (UTC)


 * There will probably be days where images already on this wiki suffice, so I may not have any images a day at times. I always try to find something of use already on this site before asking for an upload from Wookieepedia. --ARC Commander Colt (Talk) 23:58, May 17, 2011 (UTC)


 * I figured, just making sure. Don't feel the need to reply to this post, or we'll never get this conversation ended, lol. :) --ARC Commander Colt (Talk) 00:07, May 18, 2011 (UTC)

Sourcing Images
Thank you for contacting me about sourcing the iamges that I've uploaded. I believe that I have sourced the SpecForceDemolitions.jpg image correctly, could you please tell me if it is not sourced correctly? Thanks again.

Your Contributions
Hey Savage,

I just wanted to personally let you know that your contribution to this wiki is appreciated, by me and other users here, and thank you for what you've done around here. You remind me of my friend TK-999 who has sadly left the wiki, for your helpfulness to new users and other such deeds. Props to you for this, and congrats on a promising career!  King of the Dugs  (Blab with me) 23:41, May 19, 2011 (UTC)
 * The reason I decided to let you know personally is because I didn't want you to think that I believed you to not be worthy of UOTM; on the contrary, you are a great user. Just wanted to let you know.  King of the Dugs  (Blab with me) 00:28, May 20, 2011 (UTC)

 * Problem: I can't write past tense, past tense mostly infers that its in the past, this fic isn't even posted yet so it seems illogical and my own mental capacity rejects the idea. If you want to do so, by all means but for me Progress means being swift and making sacrifices, time is of the essence. - --Hubris 23:03, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

 * You won for the month of May but we've always done it where you're the UOTM for the month you're on the main page for. It was something that was probably not considered from the beginning, and once you start it's too late to change it. - Brandon Rhea Alliance Starbird.svg (talk) 16:39, June 1, 2011 (UTC)

This is extremely minor, but I thought I would point it out to you so that you'd know. Era icons are not a required item for articles. Articles like planets aren't supposed to have era icons and we don't enforce that as a requirement anyway.
