Hello and welcome! You're one of the founding bureaucrats of Wookieepedia, correct? Anyway, to link back to Wookieepedia, type Article and that's it. Peace. Out. Moff Phoenix (Mofference) (Don't feed the trolls) 21:00, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes I am, and I did figure out how to link back, but thank you anyway. -- Riffsyphon1024 21:05, 8 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Well hello Riffyphon nice to see you have finaly decided to visit SW Fanon Wiki what took you so long,and I hope you enjoy it here.I know I do. Troyb 23:34, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
 * For the longest time, I couldn't find a story I liked. Now that I've created a centerpiece to build on, I can expand my fanon, fanon that will try to not conflict with existing canon nor other's fanon. --  Riffsyphon  1024 05:13, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Tyler
Hey! I remember you from Wookieepedia! You probably don't know me. I am Darthtyler, a friend of Troyb's. I just wanted to meet you.--Darth Tyler Talk to Palpy Palpy is awesome 07:15, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Hello Tyler. I've seen you around Wookieepedia. You don't need me to tell you who I am there. ;) --  Riffsyphon  1024 07:19, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Take a look at some of my fanon and tell me what you think. A good place to start is my main character. Just rate it 1-10, 10 being the best.Darth Tyler Talk to Palpy Palpy is awesome[[Image:Sidsaber.jpg|25px]] 07:22, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Your fanon is interesting. A droid with force powers that wields a red saber. I especially like the use of altered images to give more realism to the character. He even has a figure. --  Riffsyphon  1024 07:26, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Hope you don't think it is too weird. And yes, the action figures are my speciality. I made one for Troyb and one for Nebulax. But Nebulax hasn't used his on his page, yet.Darth Tyler Talk to Palpy Palpy is awesome[[Image:Sidsaber.jpg|25px]] 07:30, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Please rate mine too.new CIS,Troyb,Vale Sinkon. Troyb 15:39, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Good, good. Now if you see my articles, you will notice that I don't tend to overlap existing canon except in general cases. I think its quite possible to create completely new continuity that is more rewarding in the long run. I'm also quite adamant about my Aantooine concept. --  Riffsyphon  1024 05:35, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
 * You realize it's almost impossible to not contradict someone's fanon, because fanon has so many stories. '''Darth_Taikin (Talk to me) (My work)(Become a Jedi) [[Image:Verslinden.JPG|25px]] 12:05, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Then the key word is to try not to overlap. The galaxy is a big place and even though I reference the Galactic Empire, theres not much that is canon that says it wouldn't exist. Plus history of the galaxy can overlap without conflict if its only applies to a certain group of beings in the galaxy. Example: various overlapping holidays with multiple peoples celebrating on the same day. --  Riffsyphon  1024 19:13, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

Discussion about Noedit template
I can't say I recall when we discussed it, which was why I refrained from deleting it (I was unsure when we discussed it and what the exact details were) but I know we decided that because this Wikia is a free edit Wikia under the GNU license, it would be kinda odd to have noedit templates on our work. However, most users usually know to ask before they start randomly editing others articles, so you don't have to worry about that. *edit* Found it --  Talk to an Admin Mind Trick Jedi Library  03:43, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Ah ok, so the permission clause basically means no major article edits, but things like categories and templates can be applied to those articles in question without permission, and its an accepted policy here. --  Riffsyphon  1024 03:46, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't think anyone's every added templates to articles, but as for categories, if it was say, a Sith, and it was lacking the Sith Lord category, then someone could add the category, if that's what you're implying. -- [[Image:JM76Sig.gif]] Talk to an Admin Mind Trick Jedi Library [[Image:Sabersmilyjm76.jpg]]
 * Well the cleanup template is a template is it not? ;) --  Riffsyphon  1024 04:05, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Riffsyphon, yes adding cleanup/wookify is editing an article, as is fixing a category or grammar/spelling. Those, according to the editing policy, are all acceptable because they are trying to help improve the quality of an article. However, what it means on the main page by "Don't Edit w/o permission" is not to add information of your own into someone else's article, w/o permission. For example, in Jasca Ducato's Sith Knights article, you should have to request permission to add your own Sith Knight into his fanon, you simply couldn't say "Another famous Sith Knight was Bob", without requesting permission first. I hope that clears up the difference. And since it is adverstised on the main page, then it would be redundant to have a pointless "Dontedit" template on every article. [[Image:SVsig.jpg]] (Talk)
 * Yes, I understand how it works now. Thanks to JM76 for the link which led me to the editing policy. --  Riffsyphon  1024 04:28, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * No problem. -- [[Image:JM76Sig.gif]] Talk to an Admin Mind Trick Jedi Library [[Image:Sabersmilyjm76.jpg]]

Online/Offline
Hey, its me again. I'm advertising Template:Online/Offline. Please use it to show your status. You don't have to, but it helps.--Contact the GDE GDE's conquests 03:54, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * But you have to update it everytime you get on, right? Can't an user simply look at recent changes to determine whether another is online? --  Riffsyphon  1024 04:01, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Sorry. I didn't mean to offend you.--Contact the GDE GDE's conquests [[Image:Kuat Systems Engineering.jpg|25px]] 04:04, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * You didn't offend me, but I don't see using this as a practical template. At least not for me. --  Riffsyphon  1024 05:00, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Moam, Moam, Moam...
I'll explain the reason for the topic title later. Great intro, no? Anyway, I'm not sure if you know me or not, or if you can 'place me,' but I remember you. Now, I don't know why, but upon seeing your articles about your planets a while back, I wanted to have a go at them. Having recently learned several new techniques, for some reason I know not what, I made your planets, as seen below. You don't have to use them at all, they're just kind of 'pet projects' of mine, don't know why. Maybe I was eager to try something new. If you do want to use one or two, you don't even have to put my name on the page somewhere saying I did them, I don't really mind or anything. Think of them as a gift that dropped in front of you one day. Yes, I can be very odd.

Yes, you might have noticed that there are two Moams and no Qruash. There are two Moams because, though the first one is more accurate according to your picture, it looks like a chocolate chip cookie. So I made an alternative just in case you didn't like it. There is no Qruash because, though I tried everything I could think of, I couldn't make the planet look right. Being a perfectionist is a pain. Oh, and I congratulate you for coming up with the name 'Moam,' it is incredibly fun to say.

Though this makes me seem strange, we have one thing in common: 4dot's thumbs up on our fanon. So I guess we're on the same boat here on this wiki, though definitely not on the Wook. I have one quick question though, concidering that you've compiled a periodic table, does the series of chemistry stuff on the last paragraph of this article, though it makes sense in Earth-terms, make sense in the GFFA? Thank you. - Solus (Bird of Prey)  02:45, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Solus. You have made me very happy. I never knew that my articles with their cruddy little images could be turned into these planets that contain so much realism. It's as if it was suddenly canonized, it's weird. But I like what you did by taking the template I created and then adding your own twist to it with artistic license. That is what creativity is all about. Lausis is now under bombardment by actual asteroids to the degree I hoped for (daily), Moam looks baked and crusty (though I admit my convergent plate boundaries aren't as defined as before), Derislat is a major improvement over my version, Aantooine is breathing more lively now, and littered with island archipelagos, and Dplor is more refined to look like an actual gas giant. I thank you incredably Solus. I hope to continue to work with you again while making more planets for the Mid Rim and other locales. There may be tweaks that will need adjusting once I look to see if star color is correct and if there are other factors. I hope that will not be too much of a problem. I'll still keep mine up for comparison purposes but use yours as main pictures. As for the chemistry on your planet, it seems to check out but I'm not that strong in organic chemistry.

May the Force Be With You and Your Design Program! :) --  Riffsyphon  1024 03:56, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much, I'm glad you like them. I'd be glad you work on any more if you want, and corresponding back and forth on the details is simple, for me to do; I just have to save it as a .psd also. Thank you for checking out the chemistry thing. I don't know much about chemistry, period, but with a little research I can make it sound like it. :) - Solus (Bird of Prey)  17:23, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Hey Riff

 * Thought I heard you were here. Looks like for the same reason I am- and both of us belong to the "don't conflict with canon" group. Well, happy writing. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 16:47, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Always nice to see more Wookieepedians come along for the ride. I'd be interested in seeing what you can come up with. --  Riffsyphon  1024 16:50, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
 * You know what they say- imitation is the highest form of flattery, so I figure I'm flattering all the actual canonical writers by attempting to imitate their work. Anyway, you can find my work so far at Force Exile I: Fugitive. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 21:50, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Jesus man! How long have you been working on this? It's humongous! --  Riffsyphon  1024 02:42, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Um, about six months. ;) I've been planning this storyline for a year or so now, just now getting around to writing it and the sequel big time. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 17:12, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Hey man, you won User Of The Week

12:18, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks Big. Now I assume the system will be upgraded to User of the Month? --  Riffsyphon  1024 00:58, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Ah, no problem Riff. Just glad I could be of assistance. Darth Abeonis Sith Council Sith Campaign 14:24, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Hey, Riff.
Long time no see, eh? How's Wookieepedia been doing? &mdash;Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) 20:26, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I've only slightly been editing there during classes, adding stuff from Death Star, but we're up to 53,000 articles now. Getting towards the end of the semester allows me to work here a little more, but I won't have the full freetime until after exams, last day being Dec 14. --  Riffsyphon  1024 06:24, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Lemme adjust that. 54,000 articles. --  Riffsyphon  1024 18:11, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Sounds like you guys are doing pretty well, then. &mdash;Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Imperial Emblem.png|20px]] 20:32, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Your return
Good to see you back and helping out around the Wiki again. Thanks. -- Victor, Sr. HoloNet 209 22:20, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Riff, I wanted to ask you something. You're an active member of the community, write good articles, and you're a decent critic. I didn't realize it until last night, when Brandon Rhea suggested it to me, that I nominate you for the position of a High Priest, which are like the Inquisitorius of Good Articles (For Featured Articles, it's the Decreton Lords). I didn't want to nominate you without your permission, which is why I'm asking you now. Please let me know your response. Basically, a High Priest votes on Good Articles each week of nominations and helps with the Improvement Drive. -- Victor, Sr. HoloNet 209 20:29, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Though I may appear active, I don't believe I'd be active enough to keep up with Good Articles and the ID every week. Granted I may have some more free time once classes end for winter but you know how many positions I have elsewhere too. I still appreciate the offer Victor. --  Riffsyphon  1024 06:55, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Sorry to hear that, but I know you're a busy man. Thanks anyway. -- Victor, Sr. HoloNet 209 07:50, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for reminding me, I'll get to it now. -- Victor, Sr. HoloNet 209 06:19, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

Aurebesh letters
I will most probably complete them in one or two weeks. You can use classic letters but you shouldn't use extended aurebesh. I will also make other writing systems. Methyl Orange 09:00, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
 * No, I mean letters in subcategory Extended Aurebesh letter like Soft Cherek - letters that are not used in majority of languages using aurebesh.
 * letters like cherek for ch and orenth for oo are not extended. Extended are letters i've created.

I have time today and I will most probably complete aurebesh today. Methyl Orange 11:11, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
 * It's complete. Methyl Orange 14:09, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Excellent! --  Riffsyphon  1024 05:14, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

New Articles
In the future, please don't clean up new articles. We want new members to know that they have to follow the rules rather than wait for someone to come along and do it for them. While I do appreciate you cleaning articles up, please don't do it to new ones. Thanks. - President Brandon Rhea  (Pressroom)   (Accomplishments)  02:59, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes sir. --  Riffsyphon  1024 03:00, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
