Fanon stealing
Please stop stealing fanon. You will be blocked if you continue. Drewton  ( Drewton's Holocron ) 13:21, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Please do not copy articles from Wookieepedia, as well. They will be deleted. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 13:22, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Manual of Style
Please read the Manual of Style to see how articles should be formatted and categorized. As this is a Wiki, we expect a certain standard from our editors. Drewton  ( Drewton's Holocron ) 22:34, 3 November 2008 (UTC)


 * As Drewton said, you must read and follow our Manual of Style, as we have a standard here that editors need to follow. If you have no intention of doing this and respecting our policies, then please don't create anymore articles. We shouldn't have to be cleaning them up for you. Thank you. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 01:49, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Blocked
You have been blocked from editing for two days for failure to follow article guidelines after two warnings. Drewton  ( Drewton's Holocron ) 02:42, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Second block
For still failing to follow our policies, by putting headers and the like as this: in your articles, not a part of our Manual of Style, you've been blocked again, this time for five days. When you get back, please properly format, spell and grammar check, and follow our policies, namely the Manual of Style. It'd also be appreciated if you categorized your articles upon creation. -- (talk) (contributions) 07:35, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

Warning
Please don't add the planet Mandalore back into Mandalore. The disambiguation page is for linking to actual pages with "Mandalore" in their names, and there is no article for the planet Mandalore. Drewton  ( Drewton's Holocron ) 21:36, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Mistake
Sorry, but Death Star VI is already up for deletion (See Forum:GINORMOUS Joke Article Deletion Proposal, Part 2). -- Michaeldsuarez  ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 22:17, 13 November 2008 (UTC) Do not use images created by other users as you used Image:BoClass.png. You must ask the permission of the author before using it. Also, you only need to use your signature for talk pages and forums, not articles. Drewton  ( Drewton's Holocron ) 00:32, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Why are you creating Kill someone from the inside? The article it redirects to doesn't exist. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 23:26, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Talk page was deleted because it was in the article namespace and wasn't really an actual article. Please put that kind of information on your user page or talk page. Drewton  ( Drewton's Holocron ) 02:24, 14 November 2008 (UTC)

Re:Character box
Just to clarify, when you say character box do you mean something like this, where you can put in the birth date, death date, place of birth, physical features, etc? Or a place to list characters in a work of fan-fiction? --  Tesh  162  16:27, 14 November 2008 (UTC)

Re: President
In most countries, "President" is an elected position, and as far as I know I've never been elected President on Star Wars Fanon, or anywhere else for that matter. What I am essentially saying is that in no way, shape or form am I the President of Star Wars Fanon, or any other type of leader other than an administrator who is no different than any other user save for the special editing tools I have. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 00:15, 15 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Also, to answer what you asked Tom, you were blocked the other day for failing to follow our policies and article guidelines, namely the Manual of Style, despite being given multiple previous warnings. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 00:17, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

Try being a little patient. You can't expect someone to rush to their talk page to answer your beckon call if they're busy with other things. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 00:25, 15 November 2008 (UTC)


 * First of all, if you're going to write on my talk page, don't write like you're talking to me on AOL Instant Messenger. I shouldn't have to decipher what you're trying to tell me. Second, no one here has ever been elected to, instated as or proclaimed to be the President of Star Wars Fanon, whether it be me, Vic, or someone else. - Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 00:28, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I do have the KOTOR games. Also, per what CloneSaber mentioned in the section below, you shouldn't discuss information such as your age. If you happen to be under the age of thirteen, then you cannot say so publicly. Doing so is illegal and will likely result in you being banned. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 00:37, 15 November 2008 (UTC)


 * (Just letting you know) However, there are bureaucrats in SWF, which is a position higher than admin. They include Brandon, Neomesssiah and C3PO the Dragon Slayer. They have the ability to veto some things and make normal users administrators. But really, the bureaucrats are treated like normal users on Star Wars Fanon like yourself and I. They just have a few more buttons to press and to help people when they need it. --<font color=#00416A>Arav the Undersith  <font color=Blue>(<font color=#C3B091>Contact Me ) <font color=#00416A>(<font color=#C3B091>My contributions ) 00:49, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

It was just a signature, and please stop putting comments on my talk page that are directed towards CloneSaber. If you want to talk to him then do it on his talk page, not mine. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 00:56, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

RE:Common

 * I don't think you should discuss that. - Clonesaber [[Image:Stormheadsig.jpg|20px]]  (Stormtrooper's Hangout) 00:32, 15 November 2008 (UTC)


 * As what Brandon said. It's not Instant Messenger so don't keep sending off topic messages. So if you want to send me a message do it on my talk page. - Clonesaber [[Image:Stormheadsig.jpg|20px]]  (Stormtrooper's Hangout) 00:38, 15 November 2008 (UTC)


 * I blocked you for failing to follow our policies such as the Manual of Style and layout guide after warnings. --[[Image:Darth tom sig.png|100px]] <font color="#000001">(talk) <font color="#000001">(contributions) 07:45, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

Regarding your article
I took a look at your article Adios Korios and fixed the picture. Basically, what you did was added the thumb tag, which isn't necessary for profile pictures. I also changed the picture size to the generally accepted size of 250 px, however, if you feel it's too big you can change it. Another thing, not to sound picky or anything, is that you didn't put any spaces after periods and commas. I went through some of it, but it is your article, so I'll let you fix the rest. Good luck with the article. --  Tesh  162  14:34, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Assistance
I see Tesh has helped you with the image some, however this may also help you. :) -- <font color="#000001">(talk) <font color="#000001">(contributions) 19:52, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Please categorize your articles upon creation, as you did not do here so as to save us all a ton of work. :) Thanks. --[[Image:Darth tom sig.png|100px]] <font color="#000001">(talk) <font color="#000001">(contributions) 21:22, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Warning -- Fanon stealing
I removed Battle of Ak'Sharrn from your Second Battle of Asteroid G-117 article since that article belongs to Darth Fury. You must obtain permission from Darth Fury before you can use it. -- Michaeldsuarez  ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 15:56, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Blocked: Image sourcing
You have been blocked for twenty-four hours (one day) for failing to source images you have uploaded, despite a previous warning. When you return from your block, please re-read the image policy and learn how to source your images. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 01:52, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

Categories
Look, please categorize your articles upon creation, as you did not do with Code-3276549786; it saves us all a lot of time. A list of categories can be found here. -- <font color="#000001">(talk) <font color="#000001">(contributions) 08:41, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

Second block: Image sourcing
You have once again been blocked for failing to source images you upload to Star Wars Fanon, this time for three days, despite previous warnings and a previous ban. When you return from your block, please re-read the image policy and learn how to source your images. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 20:37, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

Only infobox
Once your block ends, can you please add more information to Darth Ragno? At the moment, it only consists of an infobox. Please add at least one line of information outside the infobox to it, or it may be deleted. Thanks. -- Michaeldsuarez  ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 20:46, 22 November 2008 (UTC)


 * What Michael meant was, please add at least one line of information out outside the infobox. Thanks. -- Joe Butler (Obi Maul12)  (Chow) 21:41, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

I've added content to the article for you based on the information provided in the infobox. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 23:55, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

Lying
We expect you to know the real copyright licenses of images that you upload, not for you to make them up. If you don't know the license of an image, don't upload it. I deleted several of your images that you claimed to be licensed under Creative Common Attributions 3.0, since they were actually copyrighted by Lucas Arts. Since they were upload a while ago, you won't be blocked. However, I'm now warning you not to lie about the license of an image again. Please be more careful and try to find out the images' licenses. Thanks. -- Michaeldsuarez  ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 13:56, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

Blocked
Drewton  ( Drewton's Holocron ) 00:04, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

Sojus
Sorry, but your Sojus article is blank. Please add more information to it, or it may be deleted. Thanks. -- Michaeldsuarez  ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 01:50, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Name change
Actually, Drewton's block is fair on Darth Revis. You're not allowed to change your account name and, if you do, we have to ban the new account permanently, per our policy. So Drewton did nothing wrong. -- <font color="#000001">(talk) <font color="#000001">(contributions) 17:16, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

Talk page
Do not move your talk page, ever. Instead, just place the template Title at the top, as I have done so for you this time. --Victortalk 07:39, 14 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Our Wiki's different. Whether it sounds better or not, you're not allowed. I'm sorry. --[[Image:Darth tom sig.png|100px]] <font color="#000001">(talk) <font color="#000001">(contributions) 07:52, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Hey man, sorry about the confusion with my talk page. Technically, it doesn't have a different name. It's still at User talk:Brandon Rhea. I just used the Title template to disguise the name as something else. If you'd like your talk page to say something different, you need to use that instead of moving the page. Again, sorry about the confusion. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 16:46, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Re: Image
I fail to see the point in you telling me that. And besides, you need to source your image. If it's not properly sourced in the next ten minutes, I'm blocking you for one month in accordance with the image policy. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 05:08, 21 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Read the image policy as you have been told to do multiple times. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 05:22, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

You pretty much did it right. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 05:30, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Admin
You go to Star Wars Fanon:Requests for adminship. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 21:23, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Quote
"He might not be the best article writer, but his articles mean something."

- Your user page, in a quote attributed to me

Please direct me to where I said that, because I do not recall doing so. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 02:18, 25 December 2008 (UTC)


 * I haven't really paid attention to your articles, to be perfectly honest with you, and please remove that falsely attributed quote from your user page Also, I don't think people like Vic and Drewton are going to appreciate you making up quotes and attributing those to them either, so I suggest removing that as well. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 02:24, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Unsourced images
Technically, you should be blocked for uploading another unsourced images, especially after three blocks concerning such, but since you're fairly active I'll give you another chance to source the image (the image in question is Image:250px-Mandalore_the_Ultimate_with_flamesgold.jpg. Drewton   ( Drewton's Holocron ) 02:37, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Nevermind, you already sourced it. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 02:38, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Re: RE: Admin
You put what thing up? - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 02:32, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I would recommend that you not apply for administrative rights at this moment. I suggest that you become more active, both in writing articles and participating in the community, first. You should at least prove that you're ready for those responsibilities and prove that the wiki needs you as an administrator. However, you're free not to listen to my advice. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 21:02, 29 January 2009 (UTC)


 * And the fact that you didn't read or correctly follow the procedure to nominate yourself for administration speaks volumes, as well. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.svg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 21:25, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
