Star Wars Fanon:Quote of the Week

The Quote of the Week is a quote that remains on the Star Wars Fanon main page for a total of seven days, from Sunday at 12:00am Eastern Standard Time to Saturday at 11:59pm Eastern Standard Time, that has been chosen by the membership as a quote that represents the best that Star Wars Fanon has to offer. A good candidate should be compelling, engaging, well articulated and tell an interesting story by itself to encourage users to read more from where it came, whether that is an article or a fan fiction story.

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


 * 1) All users may nominate a quote from any article, although only users who meet the requirements of the voting policy may vote.
 * 2) Voting will carry on every week and successful nominations will be placed onto the list of upcoming quotes.
 * 3) Winning quotes will be determined by the community. Once a quote reaches five (5) net votes, which is determined after adding the support and opposition votes, it will be added into the queue.
 * 4) Quotes may not contain profanity that exceeds a PG-13 rating.
 * 5) Users may use any reason they desire to oppose a nomination, such as “I don’t like the quote” or “it’s too unbelievable” or “the quote is too long”. All reasons are acceptable so long as civility is kept in check.

When nominating an article, there is a simple form that should be used in order to maintain a sense of order on the nominations track. It is as follows:


 * ===Speaker’s Name===
 * ====Quote====
 * ====Support====
 * ====Oppose====
 * ====Neutral/comments====

Nominations will remain on the nominating track until they become successful, until the author pulls the nomination or until it reaches a consensus of opposition. If it is successful, aside from being added to the list of upcoming quotes it will also be added to the list of successful quotes.

 * #I'd probably support it if not for the 'Peace is a Lie'; that makes it more wordy, somewhat, and takes away some of the quality of it in my opinion. --[[Image:Darth tom sig.png|100px]] (talk) (contributions) 12:56, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

 * 1) Something about "I merely see the Force as it is meant to be seen" reminds me of TSL now, but I know I didn't take it from that when I wrote the scene. If anyone recognizes it from the game, please remove this nomination. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 15:20, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
 * 2) *It sounds like something Kreia would say, but I'm not sure if she actually said it. I haven't played the game in a long time. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 13:48, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

 * 6) I don't like it. -- Knowledge the Article Writer talk 20:21, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
 * 7) Nightmare that dialogue is actually near the very end of the duel, they say something quite similar in the beginning though. Too generic and sort of cliche.--I&#39;m the Chosen One (Talk) 06:20, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

Quote (+4)
"I…I have to kill you. I can't let the Sith return. That's the point of the Council of Seers, which you were part of. Preventing the return of the Sith. I'm doing that now…selflessly. As a Jedi. I – I'm sorry, my Master. This is the end for you."

 * 3) Although it should be more emotional, I like the quote's struction, especially how Dular become more resolved and confident as it goes along. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 19:39, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

 * 5) Of course it sounds forced - he's forcing himself to bring justice for the Jedi, and kill his own master and friend. He must force himself to fight for what he truly believes in, the Jedi. –<font color="#c00">Victor  [[Image:Redstarbird.svg|15px]] ( talk page ) 06:37, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) Some of it seems uneeded and forced. --I&#39;m the Chosen One (Talk) 18:33, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
 * 2) *Well, he's speaking to his former Master who's been like a father to him, kinda like Anakin and Palpatine, so there has to be a lot emotion. What he's doing feels both right and wrong at the same time, and he's trying to justify himself. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 18:37, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
 * 3) **Actually, I feel that there isn't enough emotion. For example, there's a lot of facts, such as stating the purpose of the Council of Seers. There should be more tension, tears, or confidence instead of "I am a Jedi, and this is what Jedi do". --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 19:26, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
