Hey Drewton. There actually was fanon content in that article, so I recreated it. The infobox contained a link to the user's species article, and when you deleted it I was in the process of adding an additional section just so there would be more visible fanon in it. I told the user that stuff like this won't be recreated in the future. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 00:39, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Alright. I looked over the article and compared it with the Wook one for a few minutes, but didn't see that. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 00:46, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

It was easy to miss, hence why I added in that Inhabitants section just to be safe. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 00:54, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

SORRY
Hey Drewton, hope all is well with you. Just wanna say sorry for my incompetence  Brandon so kindly pointed out to me where my issue was… I didn’t even notice the special: Upload section!!! How silly am I! Anyway now that I know, its shouldn’t happen again.Follower of the Yahweh way (Talk) 04:15, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Lol, that's fine. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 13:25, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Making an Image fit just right
Hey again Drewton, hope all is well with you. I need some more help… yet again. When an image is uploaded, how do you edit or adjust the image so that inside the info box (or any other display) the picture appears clean and fitting completely into the frame? Up to this point when I’ve been uploading images they all appear to be like the thumbnail type with the white boarder around them. Someone, I can’t remember who edited my article Kentell Leknar and made the picture inside the info box fit and look sweet. How did they do that? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.

 * Remove the |thumb| part of it and change the pixel size to 250. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 02:03, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

Eras
I see that you're uncovering Wookieepedia's secrets. -- Michaeldsuarez  ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 21:14, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Or trying to, lol. From what I can see, there's no difference in the era parts of the MediaWiki templates, and if I copy the exact era templates from Wookieepedia, it won't work at all. Right now, the eras are only working the way they should be in previews. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 21:24, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

Era icons now appear to be working fine! Drewton  ( Drewton's Holocron ) 15:44, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

Was the code that you recently added to MediaWiki:Common.css meant to block advertisements? According to Wikia's terms of use, they're not supposed to block the viewing of advertisements by other users. As a result, I reverted your edits. If I came to the wrong conclusion and the code really does something else, feel free to add it back. -- Michaeldsuarez  ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 01:31, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

Era icons
My OCD is going to drive me nuts because era icons aren't working right. This sucks. –Victor  ( talk page ) 05:01, 7 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Nevermind, my problem was on my personal monobook javascript page. :P Now the issue is gone. –Victor  [[Image:Redstarbird.svg|15px]] ( talk page ) 05:10, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

Unused image
Image:Adirofs moon.JPG is currently unused. Did you still want it or should it just be deleted? - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 18:00, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I probably won't be using it, so I've deleted it. Thanks for asking me first. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 18:43, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

 * Yeah, you just need to say that you were the one who made it in the source and use something like P-D for the licensing. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 15:26, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Recent issues
Hello Andrew. I have run into serious familial problems, so I will not be regularly active on the internet anymore, for an undetermined amount of time. So, as such, I give you full permission to take care of all my Seer duties for me, meaning voting. Just use the Signed template to do so, whenever my vote is needed. I trust your judgment in this, hence why I am asking you. Plus you know how picky I can be. Anyway, just letting you know, so please take care of this for me at your discretion. Cheers. –Victor  ( talk page ) 03:02, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Alright, and I hope whatever problems you have will be fine soon. I'll make sure to wait until there have been thorough reviews of the articles (including by myself) before I use your vote. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 03:41, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

sourcing question
Hi Drewton,

I had been given a ban for image sourcing violation. I've removed the images. I would like to re-add them but I want to make sure I do it correctly. The picture is of me, taken by a relative. If I fill out the template and name the person who took the picture, is that all that is required?

Thank you for your help,

Jacob BaddaBaddaStudios
 * Yeah, you just have to do something like "Self-made image" for the source, and P-D, Cc-by-sa, or Usercopyright for the licensing Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 20:16, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
