Star Wars Fanon:Quote of the Week

 A Quote of the Week is a quote that remains on the Star Wars Fanon Wiki Main Page for a total of seven days, starting on Sunday at 12:00am Eastern Standard Time and lasting until Saturday at 11:59pm Eastern Standard Time. The quote is one that has been chosen by voting users as a quote that represents the best on the wiki.

Good candidates for Quote of the Week should be compelling, engaging, well articulated, and tell an interesting enough story by themselves in order to encourage readers to read more from where it came from, whether it came from an article or a fan fiction story.

Nomination process:

There is a simple process that all Quote of the Week candidates go through in order to be selected as a Quote of the Week. That process is as follows:


 * 1) Any user may nominate a quote from any article or fan fiction story, but only users who meet the voting policy may vote.
 * 2) Quotes are successful after reaching five (5) net votes, which is determined after adding the support and opposition votes. Successful quotes will be placed on the list of upcoming quotes.
 * 3) Quotes are unsuccessful after receiving a net total of negative five (-5) votes, or if they fail to garner any form of consensus after one month of being on the nominations track.
 * 4) All quotes must be sourced. If the quote only appears in an article, the source is the article.
 * 5) Any quote that does not meet the content policy will be removed from the nominations track. It may be removed from the source article as well.
 * 6) Users can use any reason to oppose a nomination. This includes "I don't like the quote," "it's too unbelievable," "it's too long," or anything else. All reasons are acceptable so long as users remain civil.

How to nominate:

When you nominate an article, please use the following nomination form in order to maintain a sense of organization on the nominations track:


 * === Speaker's name ===
 * ==== Quote (+/-#) ====
 * ==== Support ====
 * ==== Neutral ====
 * ==== Oppose ====
 * ==== Comments ====

Nominations will remain on the nominations track until they become successful, the author removes the nomination, it reaches a consensus of opposition, or it fails to gain the necessary votes to be either successful or unsuccessful after one month. If it is successful, the quote will be added to the list of upcoming quotes.

"Moff Prav Sh’mukk, I, as an agent of the Imperial Political Inspection division, hereby find you guilty of inappropriate use of Imperial raw materials, of using Imperial naval resources and shipbuilding tools without the due consent of naval command, of failure to provide proper amnesties to personnel...of indecent exposure, of improper use of Imperial navy recruitment material, and for being more loony than a Tusken raider on crystal meth. I hereby use my authority to place you under arrest and have you secured for transportation to Coruscant for trial."

 * 2) In regards to ITCO's comment in the Comments section, it's because the quote can't be contextualized properly. There's really no way of getting the point across that this comes from a comedy story. Without that, it just seems like a really dumb quote, unfortunately. - Brandon Rhea Alliance Starbird.svg (talk) 01:04, June 15, 2010 (UTC)

 * The epic part of the line does not seem like something an Imperial, of any kind would say, or bother to say. And it seems a bit long-winded, even for an said Imperial.- I'm the Chosen One So the Prophecy says... 01:01, June 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * How the hell does this guy know what a Tusken Raider is? Oh, silly me - it may be a worthless desert hole on the arse-end of space, but everyone in the galaxy has gone to Tatooine at least once and therefore knows the names of indigenous peoples and wildlife. -MPK, Free Man  22:51, June 21, 2010 (UTC)
