Dark Knight
Hi vic. Nice new look. I have a question. I have been categorising articles and I have made a Stormtroopers one and it wont come up. I make it and it is done and then I go back to the article that I categorised as Stormtroopers and then I click the Stormtrooper category and it is on edit. It does not create.Can you make it for me?--Dark Knight 07:00, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
 * No, I placed the correct category. -- Victor  ( talk ) 07:07, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Hi vic. Got a question. How many edits do I have could You check for me please?--Dark Knight 23:54, 17 August 2007 (UTC)


 * First off, I already told you that categories need categories too, and if you're not going to categorize them, then don't bother even creating them. So please categorize "experiments". Anyway, you can check how many edits you have at: Special:Editcount/User:Dark Knight - to vote, you need a month's membership on SWFanon and 250 main edits. Currently you have 48 main edits, so you can't vote. -- Victor  ( talk ) 00:10, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Also what is the page that shows what an article has to be a featured article.--Dark Knight 00:06, 18 August 2007 (UTC)


 * First an article must be a good article before being featured, so go to Star Wars Fanon:Good articles/Nominations first. -- Victor  ( talk ) 00:10, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Hey vic I was wondering how do I make something like this DontHesitate --Dark Knight 22:59, 18 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Just copy the code and change it as you see fit. Though read the message on your talk page, and if it's for a clan, don't even think about it. -- Victor  ( talk ) 23:08, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

No it was not for the clan and sorry I did not know that I could not make a group. Next time I will have to read the rules. But before I make the dont hesitate type of thing I was sort of my own award to give to writers for one of there article I think is there best. One every Week. Am I aloud to do that?--Dark Knight 23:21, 18 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Instead, make a hall of fame type of thing. Like this: User:Brandon Rhea/Brandon Rhea’s Hall of Fame. -- Victor  ( talk )

No. But thanks for the offer. So how do I do it. Do I find a Image for the award then uplode it and make it into an award saying " The force in flowing within you. You are the winner of Dark Knight's Writer of the Week award"? Can you show me how.--Dark Knight 23:37, 18 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Copy the code, create a new page, and there are two parts to the text. The first is the big text, which you put whatever you want (i.e. Congratulations) and the second text section is the smaller text, which is where the "The Force flows through you [etc]" bit can go. Where the image is where the image goes, just change the filename/type. Then you can change the color codes. That's basically it. But if you're going to be doing that, do not create a category for it and post it only on the talk pages of pages. Thanks. -- Victor  ( talk ) 23:48, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Could you make it for me? With the Holocron picture and this writing (Congratulations. The force is flowing within you. You are the winner of Dark Knight's Writer of the Week award) With A red and orange colour and a link of Dark Knight to my talk page.If you want to show me it at the end. Please. You are a great mate for this website. I trust and respect you. Also remember when you just started SWFanon. also can you do it?--Dark Knight 00:16, 19 August 2007 (UTC)


 * I surely hope mate means something else in your country. But joking aside, here is the template: DarkKnight. -- Victor  ( talk ) 00:34, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. Also mate means Potato..................................Kidding it means friend. Well I think you are my friend. Also you need to loosen up. Have a joke one in a while. I have seen your pictures on your page and you look like a very happy and lucky man. Anyway happy Graduation and wish all the best for your child and wife.--Dark Knight 00:45, 19 August 2007 (UTC)


 * I know, I was joking, don't worry. Anyway, thanks. -- Victor  ( talk ) 00:47, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

I would like to see that grin more often. Also thanks and could you give me a link to a page with all the users on it. Leave it on my user page please or talk page.--Dark Knight 00:56, 19 August 2007 (UTC)


 * I smile when I feel like it, and I don't always express my smile through actual smilies, because I don't have too. But anyway, to find users' work, go to category:Articles by author and check out authors' work. -- Victor  ( talk ) 01:01, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

Also when I give the award where or how do I write the date today it is the 19th so it will end on the 26th. Can I wrte the date underneth the template?--Dark Knight 01:01, 19 August 2007 (UTC)


 * You can see how to do it on the template page. For example . -- Victor  ( talk ) 01:05, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

Hey vic what does Post Mortem or something like that mean? Explane and also do I have to have over 250 Edits to have one of my article to be a good article?--Dark Knight 10:14, 19 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Post-mortem means after death. On a character, you would describe the events that happened after or as a result of the character's death. You can nominate a good article even if you don't have 250 main edits, just you can't vote. So far, you only have 63 main edits. -- Victor  ( talk ) 20:07, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

Could you put a Im still working on it on my article Sopravvissuto or even better the one which says this page is under major improving or something like that.--Dark Knight 10:52, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Also could you make me a template with the Evil Knight Picture saying Soon it will be compleated. Basicly I want It to be the thing but with the Knight picture and the different links and the start thing in my first sentence and put in Dark Knight is still working on it.--Dark Knight 11:07, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Could you do it?--Dark Knight 07:42, 21 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Later. -- Victor  ( talk ) 22:26, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Hey vic when I was typing to C3P0 the dragonslayer I wrote General Arav the user name and it came up with this General Arav. Why not just come up with the link to his user page?--Dark Knight 09:27, 24 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Because you link with square brackets Like this, not . -- Victor  ( talk ) 20:23, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

RE:Source
Yea, I have returned after long, long time. I am little out of exercise, give me more time, ok. Jaffa, kree!


 * Uh, no. Source your images ASAP. The three you just uploaded, the others, yes, you have time (old ones), but new ones shouldn't be an excuse. Another thing, you have to change your signature to comply with the Signature policy. Thank you. -- Victor  ( talk ) 09:19, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Ok, ok, one by one:), my first question is: "Which template should I use when image is my own made and I want noone can copy it?"


 * Place for your own pictures (as long as you are the absolute creator of the sole image, meaning your image is unique), but if it is someone else's and copyrighted, use  . Please sign your posts too, though I assume you are fixing your signature. -- Victor  ( talk ) 09:27, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Hmm, it works, I mean the Template. Thanks. Now its time to fix my signature, I am no longer under the command of Anubis so I am able to change it. Simply tell me what exactly I suspect, but tell me simply. No offence but I am not interested in reading long manuals how to do things. Just simply, ok :D


 * Please don't edit my posts. Anyway you need to make your signature simple, with a link to your user page with your name on it (required) and a link to your talk page (recommended). You may have an image in it, but no more than one, and it cannot be animated, plus, it cannot be taller than 25px. Lastly, though you may not like reading long manuals and rules, it will help you understand our rules and the way things work, and may prevent you from reaching further troubles. -- Victor  ( talk ) 09:52, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

This day design has to be done, at this weekend I hope there will be time, finally to add my article.


 * No, they don't have to be done. They serve no purpose. "This User is Domestication Lord, Class 3. This User is able to domesticate almost everything. Probability is 50%" means nothing and is pointless, and could easily be used with template:userbox instead of creating a whole new template, or you could just place the raw code on the page. -- Victor  ( talk ) 10:16, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Just stop creating the templates, because I am about to delete them. If you want a signature template, use "User:Zzzzzz/sig". Do not recreate the deleted templates. Why? Because you can easily use the raw code, like I said; its not that hard to place a custom signature or a mere image of applause on your page, no need for a template. -- Victor  ( talk ) 10:18, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

OK, now no more templates.


 * Good to hear. -- Victor  ( talk ) 10:25, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Lol, 3 remained! :D:D:D


 * Any I leave are because they aren't a problem or pointless. -- Victor  ( talk ) 10:33, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

RE:
Which of my articles haven't i categorized?


 * Here's a fine example: Sigma Project. Also, the day I told you that (about a week ago) you had just created 3 new articles which I categorized for you. -- Victor  ( talk ) 06:30, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

Hi, Vic. I see you put up a cleanup template on my APAD article. I'm not disagreeing it needs cleaned up, I'm just wondering which area(s) need improving. Thanks! Den Robiv 16:38, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Can I just say somthing ? Anyway the Sigma Progect is not categorised at this time.--Dark Knight 10:15, 10 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Most of the article is in a list format, and the important stuff, such as history and weapons, could definitely and should be in paragraph form instead. Also, the template of the universe thing should be on the talk page. -- Victor  ( talk ) 06:30, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

I read one of your userboxes about liking Spiderman, so I wanted to give you this link. I apologize in advance if this is concidered link spam. General Grham Talk (NCIS 18:35, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

Hey, Vic. Could you place this image: Image:50px-Era-da.png on the Template:Eras page under Dark Age please? Thanks. Jesus Freak NK says NK's 'mazin' articles 18:35, 12 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes, I'll get to fixing it up real soon. Just need to make modifications. -- Victor  ( talk ) 22:32, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Done, era icon added. -- Victor  ( talk ) 22:44, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Vic I didn't know what to categorize it as and still which uncategorized articles were you talking about?


 * First off, Sigma Project is still uncategorized, and An'ya Kuro is still uncategorized. Here are two of the articles I categorized for you the other day: Stark Steed; my edit adding the category and Shobera Culu; my edit adding categories. And I've already directed you a few times to Categorization to learn how to categorize, so don't tell me you don't know how to do so. -- Victor  ( talk ) 21:23, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

As I recall I didn't say I didn't know how to categorize I said i didn't know what category to place it under and I did not know An'ya Kuro was uncategorized


 * OK. So what is your excuse for not categorizing "Stark Steed" and "Shobera Culu"? -- Victor  ( talk ) 02:09, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

First off you only said that you had categorized 3 if my newest articles maybe if you had been more specific they would have all been categorized and If i had just put one category i had thought that it would be sufficient and I categorized it on July 30


 * You should categorize them upon creation, not when you feel like it. And above are the links to the actual edits I made to categorize your articles. Therefore, just drop the issue, because I don't trust you enough to categorize any articles. -- Victor  ( talk ) 04:34, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

I wasn't under the impression that the decision was based on your trust or not.Matter of fact it says directly on the restore articles page " we will only restore if you are willing to forever more follow the manual of style and will fix up the article. Junk will not be tolerated.".It seems to me that it doesn't say if an admin trusts you the article will be restored, it says if I am willing to follow the manual of style then the article can be restored


 * Ah, in that case, then you have proven you aren't willing to follow the MOS because I just categorized another new article of yours yesterday, which you left uncategorized. Therefore, you have not shown you are willing to restore them. Go bug another admin about this, because I already told you: I am not restoring your articles, since you aren't willing to categorize them. -- Victor  ( talk ) 21:29, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

I am willing to categorize it if I know its uncategorized.Which article?


 * Too late, I already categorized it. It was "Battle of Fondor", and here is the edit where I categorized it: . You probably have a lot of uncategorized articles too, anyway, that I haven't seen. -- Victor  ( talk ) 22:25, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

If I know of any uncategorized articles that I have I will categorize them

Thanks for the Talk page.
Thank for the talk page, but there was something I was wondering, I go on other wikis too and how do you get the time? Star DestroyerFleet

Templates
Hey, Victor, I'm not sure if this is a question I should be asking at the Senate Hall or here, but, how do you make Userboxes and other Templates? I'm an Administrator on the Kyle XY wiki (The only admin besides the creator) so I figured that since our ranks were growing, I needed to make Userboxes and other Templates. That, and I wanted to make my own for my userpage on this wiki. Thanks, Troy 18:30, 23 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Userboxes can be created easier than actual template boxes. Go to Template:User Atheist to see how to do those, which are more complex, or to template:Userbox for the simple template. Now, for the big/top of the page templates, go to template:Major. For such templates, you first must create other needed templates, which are template:Rb, template:Rt and template:! I believe. Template:Clear would really help a lot too. Now once you get those done, create the template (such as the Major one) and it should come out well. Colors are easily to manipulate, the width of the box can be changed, and the image of course can be changed, as well as the text. If you need anymore help let me know, and I will try to help you out. If you want, you could direct me to the Kyle XY wiki and I can see any problems for myself if you are to encounter any. -- Victor  ( talk ) 19:43, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Xendor Pic
That picture was the sole reason I decided to write an article about Xendor. I saw it, it screamed Xendor to me and I just said "well, I might as well write one". Thanks for the spelling correction, by the way. - Brandon Rhea 04:20, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

RE:EL CID
hi i would be happy if you could just come down now i mean come on i'm still new doing this mean i have only been doing this for like a week and i still don't know much of what to do.

1. i don't know how to stop categorizing my articles as featured ones. seriously 2. i don't even know how to source my images with the information template 3. what do i put as not a featured article or catergorized as it, i just want to finish my story already for christ sake. 4. i'm not that much smart ok so i don't know much of the {{ or the <> symbols O.K from EL CID.

P.S you are now my enemy {{unsigned|EL CID}}


 * Yes, you don't want to be declaring anyone an enemy here. Especially since you'll be making empty threats over the internet. I don't believe you don't know what you're doing, because you typed out the entire "Category:SW Fanon Featured Articles". You didn't do it by accident. You were already warned plenty of times and you continued to not source your images, therefore have received a 1 day ban. So please, follow the rules. You can take Brandon's advice on how to source and categorize, and you can also look at SWF:CAT and Template:Information/Special:Upload.-- Victor  {{sup| ( talk ) }} 20:51, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Hey, and thanks
Hey I just wanted to say thanks for all you tried to do for the Turtle Wikia I was running, I just fear there's not enough interest, I'm trying to get active here again, and am working on pics and articles. You can check out my latest stuff by looking at Darth Nyne my namesake article on my Sith Being. but yeah just wanted to thank you, your a great guy and keep up the good work here  N.Y.N.E. Comlink 05:01, 6 September 2007 (UTC)


 * No problem, and thanks. -- Victor  ( talk ) 01:19, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

Template
I just made my first template called altsaga. I don't know how to make the size of the fonts bigger, though. Could you help me out? Also, I don't really like how the entire thing came out, so would you be able to help be de-crapify it? - Brandon Rhea 18:50, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Nyne helped me out a bit. If you have any more suggestions, though, let me know. - Brandon Rhea 19:13, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Nevermind, I'm satisfied with them. - Brandon Rhea 21:40, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Improvement Drive
Hey I'd like to gather some community support in getting Sisk'ill Juhan on the Improvement drive, to bring some community members into working with the storyline I'm working on, and plan on bringing more members of the story to it later, depending on the success of this one.  N.Y.N.E. Comlink 01:48, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

'The' in titles
Hey, Vic, I just noticed you talking to someone about having no 'the' in the title. A few hours ago I created an article, and because of the context, I was wondering if the 'The' was okay before moved it. Links here, and thanks. D arth  P  hobia  23:51, 8 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes, move it, because the title is "Director". -- Victor  ( talk ) 21:17, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Check Up
Just wanted to know if I have gotten Darth Nyne within the MOS, trying to maintain the best quality possible before I start moving on with the other characters in the arc. let me know please  N.Y.N.E. Comlink 07:43, 9 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Actually yes, it is fine with the headers, however there are a few grammatical errors. One that I saw was that Gurrcats wasn't capitalized in one section title (I think it is proper). Another error I saw, though not really important, was that a few of the images were really small. I think they should be at least 150px in width. Other than that, it looks good. -- Victor  ( talk ) 07:46, 9 September 2007 (UTC)


 * It certainly didn't look like it from the statistics, which said 15,002. Go down three and there's mine. D arth  P  hobia  21:07, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

The statistics say 15,001 for me. -- Victor  ( talk ) 21:09, 9 September 2007 (UTC)


 * lol, I see the problem. You deleted an article, then you checked. So, add one article that wasn't deleted when I created my article. So...does that make 15,000 mine or Gordon S-something? D arth  P  hobia  21:09, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Ah yes, that was what changed everything. Well, at this point, Gordon whatever is 15,000, but it is highly likely that more articles will be deleted in the future which will bring down the number again and another article will be 15,000... hence why I say it doesn't matter to me. It constantly changes. -- Victor  ( talk ) 21:11, 9 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Exactly. Like the Battle of Had Abandon is now like 9,800 or something...anyway, whatever. Its fun to say its #15,000, even though technically its not anymore. Thanks, D arth  P  hobia  21:14, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Yep. Sorry to disappoint you. -- Victor  ( talk ) 21:17, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
