CloneSaber
Have you heard from him at all? Darth blight 22:35, 28 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Well, the last I heard from him was right before we got banned. But thanks anyways. And how is that spamming?

Editing Dagger/Paramount
Sorry it took me so long to get to this, just kinda saw it. But on looking over Dagger/Paramount and making it look a little nicer, go for it. Anything that looks like it needs something fixed, I'm all for it, as well as any other articles you feel that need a fix aswell. --Mulluns 05:09, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Hm
I can't find the forum when you were elected/appointed to become a Decreton Lord. If you know it, it would be of great help. &mdash;Victor, Sr. «discussion» 05:22, 29 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Nevermind, found it. &mdash;Victor, Sr. «discussion» 05:25, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Question
Why does it say at the top of the page, the Categorisation Policy is still in effect? Its always in effect. -- Arav (talk ) 06:34, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Template
I not sure what you're talking about. It looks fine to me. All I did was divide the links into two columns in order to reduce the amount of room it takes up. -- Michaeldsuarez  ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 16:18, 29 July 2008 (UTC)


 * I did a rollback on the template Rhea.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 16:26, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Before CurrentBigThing rollbacked the edit without examining the cause, I could tell you that you're the only one that I know who had that problem. -- Michaeldsuarez  ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 16:33, 29 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Squishy Vic fixed the template for us. I should've added Clear to it. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 17:18, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Alright, sorry. -- Michaeldsuarez  ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 17:22, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Drewton Legacy trailer
Here's a trailer I made today for my photonovel, The Drewton Legacy. Unfortunately YouTube decreases the quality. Drewton  ( Drewton's Holocron ) 19:47, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Sorry
I was just messing around. I'm new from halopedia and I didnt know if there was a sandbox here. Besides, I made a new article: Aaren Al Noss.

Categorization
My new Aaren Al Noss page needs to be categorized, but when I try to do it it only shows the top of the page. Please help. Exo64 23:32, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

In plain view
Um, this is not a reminder unless taken as one. This is just because I want the two messages I sent you to be visible. I know you're busy and stuff, but you won't ever remember if they're tucked away in an archive. :p
 * Um, since you seem to be real busy on SWRP, I figured I'd ask you here. What would Josiah do if Darius came back successful from the Trial of Will, and who would he assign to perform the Trial of Fear? Or would he want to do it himself? Thank you for your time.
 * Um, out of curiosity, what are some of the customs and 'initiations' of the Lettow, especially the kind of stuff Darius might go through? I want to kind of get a feel for their culture and practices. There isn't much on that facet of them in the article, I looked. Thank you for your time!
 * 1) *Thank you for your time! :) - Solus (Bird of Prey)  00:05, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for helping me
I have noticed that you have made some edits to some of the pages I have created and I wanted you to know that I appreciate your help. So thanks for the help Darth Void 15:27, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Categorization 2
My article Aaren Al Noss needs to be categorized, but when I pressed edit this page on Category:Jedi Knights it only shows the contents at the top of the page.


 * Let me phrase this differently: how do I add my article to a category. Thank you.

Good Article Nomination
I was reading over the requirements for GA nomination, and I have one question. Do I have to follow the rules of voting in order to nominate an article, or do I just not put my name in the support list? Thanks you for your help. Cyril Khan 22:41, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Earthquake
'Twas a shocker, that one. &mdash;Victor, Sr. «discussion» 03:39, 31 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Well, they've been saying that. We'll see. At least now that "big one" theory has more support with this recent mild-earthquake. &mdash;Victor, Sr. «discussion» 03:43, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Exactly, lol. &mdash;Victor, Sr. «discussion» 03:47, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

DL Archive
Since I did the Admin archive, I was inspired to start/plan a DL and eventually an HP archive. So far I have only been able to enter the beginning of the DL archives, found at this location; what do you think thus far? And if you can, please link me to each HP election forum if possible and if you want. Thanks a bunch. &mdash;Victor, Sr. «discussion» 04:20, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

ST.net

 * Brandon, not that it's my problem per se, but you might want to check your forums on Sequel-trilogy.net unless you're that fascinated by disturbing spam. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.svg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 17:16, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Regarding IRC
Brandon, on the story idea you pitched to me the other day in IRC, I have given the matter the due consideration I think it deserved and have reached a decision. I would prefer that that character's role not be expanded beyond what it currently is in the ASWS; namely, that of a cameo. I do appreciate both the thought you gave it, and your willingness to approach me about it before proceeding. I feel that it's better for both of us were you to simply pick another author's character or make one of your own for the role you intended. Obviously, I don't have a copyright on the name, so there is nothing legally preventing you from using it, but I would ask that you respect my wishes in this matter. Thank you. Atarumaster88  ( Talk page ) 04:21, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

An Article on You
Brandon, are you aware that there's an article on you. I know that there are some Real-world articles, but are articles on individual users allowed? Should it be deleted? Is there a policy on this? A lot of work appears to have went into it. -- Michaeldsuarez  ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 16:35, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I think you're right. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 19:52, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Um, Baccie, if you have time could you come on IRC, please? Thank you. If you don't get this message within ten minutes of posting, then don't bother. Thank you for your time. - Solus (Bird of Prey)  20:06, 1 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I there. &mdash;Victor, Sr. «discussion» 23:55, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Bub
Why am I redirected from User:Bub to User talk:Bub? --Arav the Undersith (Contact Me ) (My contributions ) 03:03, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Because the author made it a redirect page. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 03:05, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

Image problems
I am desperately annoyed that someone has denied the showing of the grand imperial logo and the infinotonium. I swear that those images were first released by me and the imperium was modified by me and that version was released by me, so I would like the images stated the return to being shown. Thank you, these problems are regarding the Grand Empire article. Loulou43 16:59, 2 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I have fixed my images, the ones by me, and I would like them to stay that way. I will find the licensing for the other images soon. Loulou43 17:45, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

I am trying to delete the images I have not created or modified. Oh, by the way, am I bovvered? Loulou43 18:07, 2 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Since you don't understand what I am saying, I will repeat it again: AM I BOVVERED?

Clearly never watched the Catherine Tate Show have you? No you haven't. Regarde mon visarge suis je bovvered. Look at my face, am I bovvered?

Oh don't delete my article
I have sent the web adress to the LucasArts website along with my other work and I told them to send the ideas through to the boss himself, so there.

IRC revisited
Um, if you could, could you come on IRC for just a second? It does not regard Darius/River in any way, I promise. - Solus (Bird of Prey)  16:35, 3 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Bac, please, as soon as you can, could we continue our conversation? I feel we needed to, and I just got back. - Solus (Bird of Prey)  19:33, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Thank you. This is one of the nicest and most helpful Wikis I have been on. ~ Daniel 00:24, 4 August 2008 (UTC)


 * How do i ad my category to Category:Articles by author page ~ Daniel 00:34, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

I don't know who made the other images. My bro loves Star Wars and I got them from his computer. ~ Daniel 00:06, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

Favor
Could you delete the following please: The Sancho 10 series, The Cold Play 1, and The Cold Play 1: Chapter 1. I'm not ready to write a story yet. Thanks!


 * Thanks! Sancho 10 00:44, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

IRC
I have a question regarding the title of this section, and if you can't get on IRC, like, real soon, I don't have time right now and I could ask later. Thank you. - Solus (Bird of Prey)  12:21, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Okay. I'll try to catch you next time you're on. - Solus (Bird of Prey)  16:22, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
 * B-Rhea? If you're on at the moment could you come on IRC, please? - Solus (Bird of Prey)  21:47, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm back! :) - Solus (Bird of Prey)  01:29, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

SWPNW
I think the results of Forum:Affiliation with SW Photonovels are clear, and I don't believe that anymore people will express their views on it. I think that we should consider the debate resolved, and finally make Star Wars Photonovels one of our official partners. -- Michaeldsuarez  ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 15:14, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

Apologies
I'm sorry about the deletion templates. They were actually mine from quite a while ago under the username MandoSkirata. I was deleting those a preparing to redo several things.


 * Again, my apologies, but it was technically my article. I was just changing things around. I didn't mean to confuse things (and the above message with apologies). Padawan360 02:00, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

I know this sounds quite stupid, but since the last time I went on SWF I forgot my password and couldn't get back. Now that I think about it, though, I could've gotten it sent to my email, couldn't I have?


 * Hey, Padawan360 is the other profile, so this was all a simple misunderstanding. Again, I'm sorry this all happened. I would actually prefer if you might ban MandoSkirata (this one) and just leave Padawan360 and I can get a fresh start, unless you would prefer otherwise. MandoSkirata 02:11, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

The Turners
Um, could we continue our IRC convo, please? - Solus (Bird of Prey)  02:18, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh, darn. Oh, well.... okay. See ya, then. - Solus (Bird of Prey)  02:23, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

Star Wars Series
Wotcher Brandon...I've been really busy lately. Ministry and all...but anyway I was wondering if I could start a series of my own invention here. When I say series, I mean something like...

Star Wars: ACE Jedi: Chapter One.

The name isn't final but I was wondering if I could do so. I have been waiting to do this for a long time and have been planning for a while. Let me know. Thanks. Later...- jedimasteraust

Onasi
Um, I had to say something concerning the article I tried to make titled Onasi. Now I know I didn't add anything else besides the infobox, but I was going to. I really can't stay on the computer forever, you know. I was going to suggest a new policy where if someone don't add a main body to their article within three days after creation of the article, then you can delete it. Just a suggestion. Thanks.

Fanon stealing
As far as I know, I haven't given any permission to a Mr. Wood to use our fanon. However, I'd have to run this by Ryluk, since he is co-creator, just to see if he gave permission. However, I can tell you that the articles he created are not the continuity we've created. Such as the Mace Windu link and the Kaminoans, as well as the edit on the Season I and Season II page. I'd prefer you talk to him because...well, I don't want to end up insulting him by something that I tried to say lightly. If that makes sense. Thanks for the heads up though. --  Tesh  162  18:30, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Galactic War II/Venomillian Illuminati
I apologize for not completing or categorizing my articles above, I got bored of Star Wars after a while and I forgot about it. If you could restore it, I'll finish and/or categorize them. --Arcai, August 8 2008, 3:13 PM

Wotcher Brandon, Thanks a lot. Also I apologize for reposting the message over and over again...I just thought that maybe you hadn't read the message. So I reposted it twice. Again, I deeply apologize...later.- jedimasteraust

RE:
Yes I do mind, sorry. --Victor talk 19:15, 10 August 2008 (UTC)


 * From the history pages, I tried to remove them, and you didn't let me. What does that have to do with the dates? I didn't say I'd update the dates/fix them. I said I'd remove mine from the GA/FA history, yet you didn't want me to, for whatever reason, so that's irrelevant to this. --Victor talk 19:22, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Actually, it wasn't implied. I said I'd remove them from the history pages, so that (A) my unwanted fanon would no longer be on the site whatsoever and (B) so that there wouldn't be a bunch of ugly redlinks on the history pages. I wasn't concerned with the dates, as all my FAs had been showcased and only one GA was left. Point: I don't feel like changing some dates. --Victor talk 19:30, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Signing
Hey. Sorry, i haven't been neglecting it, just forgetting. You see, I have a lot of other things going on', for I am also one of the two heads of Pokemon Oren, a game that will hopefully premiere in a couple of years. Your probably not interested, but if you are, feel free to visit. I'll give you the link if you want.....But I have to get back to the site now....so....bye. Darth blight 20:25, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Just a little something
It's been a while. I had just lost interest in creating articles...and I needed a break for a while. I may be returning to do some real work...some work with a good amount of thought put into it. Anyway, I'd like to say a little something regarding Arav. We both know that he is immature and annoying. But by getting hot about his comments, you're actually encouraging him to continue his behavior...in other words, you're feeding the fire. The bottom line is that he's going to continue his behavior if he gets a reaction. I'm not telling you to do anything, but if you'd like him to...be a little less annoying (for lack of a better phrase), it might be a good idea to 'be cool' with him, like Victor is.

Anyway, nice talking to you again. I hope all is going well. P.S. Just to let you know, I'm not going to get into any more arguments with you, or anyone else for that matter. If you disagree with the above, you can tell me, but don't expect a "hot" response. Bye! -- Joe Butler (Obi Maul12)  (Chow) 02:28, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Hi Brandon, I need your great knowledge of politics to work with my knowledge of war and battle to raise a great droid army against the new republic. Please respond. Wrest;ler9

Re:Welcome and policies
Will do boss man. /salute At any rate I'm currently reading up on the policies even before you mentioned it here :P just trying to figure everything out hope I'm doing this right. o.o;

New user request
Hi man how are you? Anyway my friend Andy directed me to this website and said that you were really helpful. So can you please help me out? I want to know how to make a new article and stuff like that, how to use temples and all that. I'm pretty new to Wiki stuff, only been using Wikipedia for like a year almost. Anyway I asked you since you're the head honcho around here and I heard you're helpful. If you don't want to help out its OK but please do. Thanks.


 * Actually I learned how to make articles but can you help me with using Template please?

Clean up
Brandon, I had just cleaned the page for you and added --User:Darthmark to keep this in order. (A bit). --<font color=#00416A>Arav the Undersith <font color=Blue>(<font color=#C3B091>Contact Me ) <font color=#00416A>(<font color=#C3B091>My contributions ) 06:56, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

I see now. I knew that. I guess I just wasn't thinking. Thanks--Mattkenn3 01:05, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

DL Duties
I am so sorry that I haven't explained why I've been gone for a very long time, Brandon. Life's been a bit crazy in-between my brother's appendectomy, work, summer reading for my AP class, and my writing projects, among other things. As of right now, I honestly don't have time to review much of anything or even help my own articles that are in the midst of losing their FA status. I can almost guarantee, however, that by the time school starts, the majority of what's keeping me away won't matter any more and I should have time to come here and lend my vote and reviewing. Sorry again, but I have very little time on my hands right now. Jesus Freak NK says NK's 'mazin' articles 00:53, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

The Cabal vs. Administrators
Yes, I agree; administrators is much more better than "The Cabal"; however, administrators is plain, boring word that lacks originality and creativity. Although "administrators" would attrack attention, something more creative would attrack interest. -- Michaeldsuarez  ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 22:34, 13 August 2008 (UTC) Alright, we'll use Wikia's definition of an "administrator." However, the new Administrators article will have to clearly state that we are just normal users entrusted with special tools (and by clearly, I mean first paragraph). -- Michaeldsuarez  ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 22:50, 13 August 2008 (UTC) Hmmmm, I see where you're coming from; and I kinda agree with you although you'll never get me to admit it :P. That said, as much as I like the name "Cabal", I'll support a name change, as it does kinda give the impression of a higher "elite tier" of users. Darth Abeonis Sith Council Sith Campaign 23:07, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I know; I just though that, as a fan-fiction wiki, we should come out with funny, make-believe words for administator. Also, how does "administrator" not sound like a different user group already? Administrators would mean "the people in charge" to mostly anyone unfamiliar with wikis anyway. Basical, the word becomes the "cabal" anyway (although "administrators" mean sound a little less intense). -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 22:41, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Good luck convincing the others. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 22:59, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I'll be honest. I'm not so much in favour, as being practical. I prefer the name "Cabal" because it sets us apart from the rest of Wikia (and I was one of the original admins who thought up the name), but administrator is much more "community friendly". Darth Abeonis Sith Council Sith Campaign 23:30, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Character
Actually, I did not base it off your name, I created Ghea just off the top of my head, but I will change it if it bothers you. Cheers Darth Storm 00:29, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I understand, and I have changed the name. If you need me to do anything else just give me a call. Cheers Darth Storm 00:38, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Sourcing
I'm trying, I don't know what's wrong. Some of my uploads don't have the authors listed, is that the problem? I'll fix what I can. I won't upload any other pictures until I know everything in the sourcing. How does that sound? Mattkenn3 01:48, 14 August 2008 (UTC)


 * You're right. I forgot to go back and finish the sourcing. Sorry. I normally upload more than one image at a time, so I can't add the sourcing template when I upload them. I normally go back and source them, but I'm so busy right now that I keep forgetting. Thanks. --Mattkenn3 01:56, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Letting you know
Just letting you know that Category:Articles by Brandon Rhea has a red link in it. The articles you are working on, link. Just letting you know. --<font color=#00416A>Arav the Undersith <font color=Blue>(<font color=#C3B091>Contact Me ) <font color=#00416A>(<font color=#C3B091>My contributions ) 06:00, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Link
Please may I link to Banik Kelrada in my SWRP articles please? Otherwise, it's impossible to write up what happened to the characters during the schism that occurs, and is being role played at the moment. Also, he is the Grandmaster, and so is handy to link to in Jedi articles. The links wouldn't contradict the plot in any way. So, may I? -- <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contributions) 17:10, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Abortion vs. Safe Sex
As I just told Drewton:
 * How about everyone forget about abortion, and find safer ways to have sex. It's easier to just avoid unwanted pregnancies. Health/sexually education in school should teach students what they can do to avoid unwanted pregnancies and to have safe sex. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 17:21, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Ex-Cabal
Honestly, it doesn't matter to me. I could be called whatever people want to call me. You have my support if you decide to change the naming from Cabal to the more classical Administrator. Have at it. Jesus Freak NK says NK's 'mazin' articles 19:06, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

This is a new user. He/she has made a article called Golden Sword II. The article has links to other peoples work. But they are common links like Plo Koon, Battle of Geonosis and other ones. Could you explain to the user what he/she can't do with linking fanon? You can explain it better than I can.

Quote Quibble
Regarding our exchange here: http://swfanon.wikia.com/wiki/Star_Wars_Fanon:Quote_of_the_Week#Tak_Sakaros

While I think your reply (to the arrogance comment, not the quote itself) was intended as an attempt to make sure everyone plays nicely together, and in that spirit I don't take offense at a public rebuke, I have to respectfully disagree with the implication therein that voting for one's own quotes/articles/whatever isn't an arrogant thing to do.

I truly feel that it both is arrogant and, as I think on it more, betrays a lack of confidence in one's own work. Arrogant because voting (aside from nominating it in the first place) suggests that the author thinks it is so good that simply taking the step of nominating it isn't enough; the site is so badly in need of basking in this quote's magnificence that the author has to vote for it too.

The lack of confidence idea stems from the same action. Nominating one's own whatever I don't view as unconfident; with 18,000-odd articles, there's no chance that even the most thorough of perusers could possibly take it in, and as such someone might miss a truly good article or quote through sheer volume. Voting for one's own quote (especially if it is self-nominated), on the other hand, seems to me to be a suggestion that perhaps the creator doesn't trust other, objective users to approve of the quote, and therefore it needs all the help it can get.

Perhaps a change of rules is in order to prohibit members from voting for (or against, I suppose) their own work? Though there should be an exception for members to be able to withdraw their creations from consideration entirely. This is simply a suggestion, take it or leave it.

I'm legitimately interested in your thoughts on all this; send me a message on my talk page if you have time. Sakaros 03:21, 16 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Fair enough. Perhaps my glance at the list of impending quotes, featured articles, and good articles (all of which are a few months ahead) led me to the mistaken assumption that there's more communal involvement than there really is. I'll certainly not be an opponent of any attempt to get more people involved in the process. For myself, I remain uncomfortable with voting on my own work, but I appreciate the alternate view. To each his own. Sakaros 04:50, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Name changes
Yes, I support changing the name back to administrators. In all honesty Rhea, I've come a long way since my first run here, and I must admit that a lot of things arose from certain people being power hungry. And basically trying to assert power of others. Like I said, I have done some growing up man. I'm an honest man Rhea, and I understand we alienated the average user in the name foolish glorification. Which is why I support this. We need to take a step back and re-evaluate this entire wiki. Now I know some of the things I did while I was rising in the ranks were quite nasty, however, I regret nothing. Though I do recognize these shortcomings, and as I've said before have taken steps to curve my aggressive tendency. But I'd like to think that I also did some good, as I notice things are working a lot smoother. Anyways, long story short, I support.

Talk:Main Page
If you're willing to share, I'd like your thoughts on this. -- Joe Butler (Obi Maul12)  (Chow) 20:20, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Kudos
I've no idea how active you are to this day, and I've no idea when you'll get this, if you ever will at all. But I felt the need either way to tell you I enjoyed reading every last letter on your user page, from the quote at the very top to the external links at the very bottom. Sadly, all the words in the world couldn't exactly express just how much I enjoyed it. Still, I can say that your opinions -- which were clearly well thoughtout -- have a truly life-changing effect, or on me at least. As a fellow writer of Star Wars short stories, though mine will never be made public unless copyrighted and are intentionally made as canon as possible, I was immediately drawn to this site by its idea. However, I had read more than a fair share of criticisms beforehand, checking out the site only after reading the complaints I found in full to 'compare notes,' if you will. Today marks the first, and more-than-likely last, time I've visited the site. I had no idea where I was going when I reached the main page so, almost as if guided by the Force, your page was the first I saw. And what a lucky find it was.

I don't really know what I'm getting at anymore. I got a call less than halfway through writing, and I was on the phone the entire time since, so I kind of lost track of my thoughts. Nasty habit, to be honest. Regardless, if you wish to contact me, you can find me on Wookieepedia (I've no intention of returning to this site), or you can email me at poetic_decay1993@yahoo.com. I check my messages on both sites several times a day, so I'm bound to read your messages almost as soon as you send it. Hope to hear from you soon, and good luck on future works! // ~mikah~  22:46, 21 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Responding on here is fine; I didn't realize I'd be getting messages for new comments even on Wookieepedia. Anyways, I really loved your willingness to express exactly what was on your mind. Not many people will do that, including me. I suppose that's what I loved most. I also enjoyed reading about the adminship bits, since during my time on Wikipedia, I almost became an admin myself but wasn't deemed prepared for the responsibility. As it turns out, it was for the best; I never could have dealt with the pressure.
 * As for the life-changing part, journalism has always been a big thing for me. As a kid, all who read my works said I had the potential to be something big, but I had thought that was something everybody told little kids to boost their self-esteem. Now in my high school term, I still hear how I may one day make it big with my writing, if I properly tune my skills. When creating characters of my own design, I always gave them larger-than-life rolls, mking them as "extraordinary" as I could. After reading your user page, I realized that super-human abilities and a sense of invincibility truly doesn't make characters great. If I could apply that to future stories, maybe it'll bring me one step closer to having all my superiors' words becoming reality.
 * Sorry my explainations aren't the best; my mind is still wandering after that phone call (though to be honest, I don't think I could explain myself any better if I didn't get a call! haha). // ~mikah~  23:06, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

As I said earlier, my characters in original origin stories were made as extraordinary as possible. When I started writing short stories of Star Wars, my characters took complete 180 degree turns and were usually pretty typical. My main characters were always Jedi, but never really had any unusual powers or unrealistic (if that makes sense when refering to Star Wars) rolls. They would, however, ultimately emerge victorious (with the exception of one work, where the hero of the story fought in the First Battle of Kamino, survived, and was later killed off in the Great Jedi Purge). I had figured that those ideals made good characters.

With faults, I always tried my hardest to evenly distribute faults among characters, if several play prominent roles in a single story. For example, my most recent work tells the story of three Padawan who survived the Great Jedi Purge and are hiding out on the Outer Rim. My male lead normally brings himself down, despite his prowess in combat and with the Force. Such low self-esteem nearly becomes his downfall. The female lead is very loud-mouthed and spontanious, getting the other characters into a lot of sticky situations. The secondary female is very shy, and has great knowledge of lightsaber combat and the Force, but is utterly helpless in close combat.

I'm not really sure if I answered the question correctly, but I think that covered it. // ~mikah~  23:31, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Thanks for that Brandon. But I worded my question incorrectly. What I ment was, for example, does the Categorization Policy still apply to these types of articles. If so, what could I use for a category. Also, these articles do not require an infobox do they? That is all. Again, much obliged.- jedimasteraust

For some reason,I cannot get to the star wars RP,why?

When I was on Halofanon,I noticed that when someone adds his infobox(For example vehicle) the proper category(vehicle) is automatically added as well.Is there any way to do that there,too?

Fanon Vector crossover series
I'm thinking about starting a -style crossover series for fanon, which would involve a fanon Jedi character interacting in each user's stories. For example, I could have that character appearing in The Drewton Legacy during the, and Victor could next have him/her appear during the Dark Times interacting with Narod Antrell. I believe it would be the best ways to do more community work with fanon, even better than projects such as Cruentus because it's only asking you to use a character and put that character's storyline into your story, not being completely restricted to a specific time/characters/war/group/etc, and it would still be all joined together.

It wouldn't be a project that just anyone could join however. It would use more prominent writers such as you, Victor, and I. I'd prefer that we didn't make entirely new stories because it's a crossover, not exactly a project, but I'm not sure how you could fit it in because The Chosen One is the only current film-period fanon story you're making (I could be wrong, I haven't read any of your other fanon yet), and using that wouldn't work for obvious reasons and because I want to keep as close to canon as possible. Perhaps a prologue.

Project Cruentus
That's not the impression we want to give. It's not closed off, It's only semi-closed. You see, we're well into the Cruentusian War now, and the factions battles and vehicles are all established, as are the participants. If people join at this stage, it has the potential to become messy and out of control, meaning the standard of articles and the like decreases by some way, which none of us want. Now, the way to deal with this is to place a sort of filter. If you imagine a cup of coffee, we haven't placed an impermeable concrete slab on it, merely a filter, which allows us to regulate any new involvement. I'd wholeheartedly welcome any new involvement with the Project, but because of how it's already been going along, we're merely now saying you have to have a good idea that would benefit the Project to participate. It's still very much open, but we regulate it now. -- <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contributions) 10:41, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
