 * Just want to give ya the heads up, I'm now a member of yakforums under the name HAAKO8, you should be able to tell, my avatar is my New CIS logo.TroybShadowFeed[[Image:CIS Fleet.jpg|48px]] 15:27, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Query
Hey Drewton. Do you read the Legacy comics? I stopped reading them awhile back, just because I didn't have time to read them, and then decided to stop once Vector came out, until it was over. But, according to spoilers from the last Vector issue, Darth Krayt was killed by his own man, Darth Wyyrlok. So, I'm just wondering, if you do read it and have the issue, could you scan an image/panel of the spoiler if you have the chance? Just wondering, and if you don't, then nevermind, of course. Thanks. :) --Victortalk 04:43, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I've been reading them for a few months now. Lol, I highlighted that text before I knew it was a spoiler...I don't have the issue right currently, but I might be able to get it tomorrow. They're harder to get in Canada; if you don't get it the first few days (sometimes the first day), you have to wait months to be able to get it. I will be able to do a scan once I get it, but Wookieepedia may have it up before then. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 14:15, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Hehe, whoops, sorry about that. :P Anyways, alright then, I guess I'll have to wait anyhow, or get it myself. And here in California, they shouldn't be so hard to get, although I can never find them at Borders, instead always finding the previously new issue, hence why I wouldn't bother trying anyway. Besides, I can't always get to the store anyway, so I would probably miss it on the day it comes out (and with the Christmas lag, less chance of getting other things done). Anyway, thanks again. --Victortalk 22:14, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Lol, it's fine, it was my fault. I'll be doing some shopping tomorrow, and depending on where I go (New York is a possibility as well, heh heh), I'll probably be able to get it. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 03:32, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

--Victortalk 07:10, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Ah, sorry I didn't get it sooner...anyways, though, I don't think Krayt is dead. There was no climactic duel with Cade, according to spoilers. I'd expected him to live until at least #50. I like what I'm hearing about Wyyrlok doing it out of duty...but that smile ruins the scene. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 13:46, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

I agree. Even though I haven't read the issue (duh), the smile looks terrible, really out of place and out of character for Wyyrlok. --Victortalk 23:08, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah. Got it today, and the scene would have been so much better without the smile (the rest was great, though). I think Wyyrlok realized (or was convinced) that Krayt was only weakening the Sith at the end of , after fighting . Now that he's the Dark Lord of the Sith, he better find a better costume or bend his horns so that he can wear Krayt's helmet, because he looks rather boring compared to him, heh. I'm also beginning to think that Nihl is going to be continuing the Rule of Two during the possible upcoming Sith Civil War.

A very belated Merry Christmas to you too, and a belated Happy New Year! No problem regarding the friends thing - I try my best. And to you too. :) -- (talk) (contributions) 21:50, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Interview
Tom is back, as you have noticed, so now is the time to start that interview before the procrastination starts getting ridicilous. Unit 8311 Talk!  18:12, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

accounts
thanks for that-- 17:39, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

sorcing
i would absulutly love to source those if i could, but i cant, because my computer is being a total asshole rite now. Clonehunter (Talk) 21:27, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, but you shouldn't be uploading images at all if you can't source them; it's not just something we can overlook because it has to do with copyright law. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 00:58, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Second attempt
I've been thinking about making another proposal about creating a partnership with Elder Scrolls Fanon. I would've proposed this earlier, but I didn't want people to think that I was taking advantage of the situation with Darthipedia. When I last proposed a partnership, the wiki has 160 articles and only 3 active users. Now we have 280 articles and 6 active users, including three that have never edited at Star Wars Fanon. As a result, I think that we have more to offer than the last time. I'm not proposing this until I believed that we have solid ground to work on, so I would like to know if you believe that such a partnership could work, or do you believe that it's a silly idea? -- Michaeldsuarez  ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 20:36, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't think it would have anything to offer SWF, so I'd oppose such a proposal again. I might consider if it had anything to do with Star Wars, which it doesn't seem to, like an Indiana Jones wiki. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 21:06, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Editing Policy Mistake

 * Do you mean you created another account? Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 23:07, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Alright, thanks for the notifaction. Do you know which account it is? Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 23:10, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

New Ideas
I'm in the process of writing a novel. I've received some comments that you'd be a good person to contact for advice, tips, and ideas. Just wondering.  Darth Wylind ( Talk ) January 5, 2009 (UTC)
 * I probably wouldn't have many tips, but I like the era you've chosen. In the summary, the characters sound a bit, to be honest, Mary Sue-ish, but I suppose that's what most characters seem like in any publisher's summary. Do you know how old Keese Somar will be? I'd suggest making him around 25; remember that Anakin was made a Jedi Knight at a younger age than most, and it's easier to work with adults rather than teenagers, the latter of which could give reminders of *shivers* and . I'm not able to open the full blog preview, for some reason, but from what I can see it looks great. Your writing style looks good, very much like the canon authors; I think as long as you keep the KOTOR feel and perhaps tie some things in with the games I think it could be excellent.  Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 14:15, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I'll take your advice.  Darth Wylind ( Talk ) January 7, 2009  (UTC)

Second attempt a Male Jedi Exile entry.
I would like to make a second attempt too add a Male Jedi Exile entry. This time I promise not to copy carte blance from the Wookiepedia. Is that ok? any advice?-Darthjimscott4th (Talk) 06:37, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Alright. Knowing little of your plans for the article, I don't have any advice, sorry. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 14:17, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

Image Uploading
Hey. Uhhhh....I've been trying to upload this one picture...I copied it off the internet onto paint, then saved it in "My Pictures"....Now, when I go to upload it, it goes to this page that says "the file has no extensions like 'jpg'"....

What can I do to get it uploaded? I'll take care of the licensing thing, but I just want it uploaded. Can you help me?

- '''Darth blight Jedi Apprentice 20:37, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure. It could be the compression that Paint uses. If you didn't change the images in any way on Paint, save them directly from the internet; if you did, save the images as PNGs in Paint. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 00:56, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

CUSWFN
I think you're the person that writes CUSWFN, right? I was wondering if you have advertisements, like for an author's (me) upcoming future novel? If so, how do/would I or you put it on there?  Darth Wylind ( Talk ) January 7, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I write it with Unit 8311. I'll add a link to the blog preview, if you want. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 01:02, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes. Please and thank you.  Darth Wylind ( Talk ) January 8, 2009 (UTC)

Special Edition
Take a look hither, Drewton. This is how all my actual articles will be in the future (long process) - more official, true sourcing, and using only 'available' images. Just thought I'd show you since you already do that, since your articles all come from real sources, which I admire. :) --VICTORSPEAK 13:21, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Heh, I was just looking at that now. Looks good so far, less like a Fanon article and more like a Wookieepedia one. I also really like the cover of Acceptance. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 13:24, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Thank you. :) I also really like your new Dular image/custom/spoiler. Great work on it! --VICTORSPEAK 20:56, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I responded to your comment to the image on its talk page. :) Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 20:58, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Borvo's fan
[[Media:Example.ogg]] I did make the page I Just started a better user name, --Borvo&#39;s vault (Talk) 20:23, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Borvo's Vault
I would still use Borvo's fan but I forgot the password

Question
Is there a way to put Borvo's stats and images on wookiepedia on the his page I made here?--Borvo&#39;s vault (Talk) 21:41, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Assuming you mean Borvo Anjiliac Biron, there's a maximum number of words for fanon you can put on your user page on Wookieepedia, and you can upload a maximum of only three images used only for your userpage. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 22:01, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

The Borvo page on wookiepedia has only one image and thats the one I want to put on the one here.
 * Oh, sorry, I didn't read correctly and didn't know the character was actually canon. Yes, save the Big W image to your computer and upload it here. Be sure to follow the Image Policy. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 22:13, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Ill try but if I screw up let me know ,Ive never done this before.

It tried to upload the image but didnt work, for I said www.wookiepedia.com and for licensing I said fair use so I dont know what Im doing wrong. How do i put the images there?--Borvo&#39;s vault (Talk) 23:23, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Question
I did you get my last message?--Borvo&#39;s vault (Talk) 02:56, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Whoops, sorry about that. I really don't know what the problem is; it should upload fine as long as you're using "Browse" to find the image. Can you be more specific about how you're doing it? Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 03:08, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

Im not really sure I just want the picture from wookiepedia brought to the page here.
 * I've uploaded it for you. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 13:29, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

Thank you soooooo much!
 * No problem. :) Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 16:38, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

Essential Guide images
Just so you know, those images from The Essential Guide to the Drewton Legacy were unused when I deleted them, which was after you told me that any image of yours on Special:UnusedImages could be deleted. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 03:56, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
