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.

The argument was done on the spot for the audio.  Trak Nar  Ramble on 03:47, September 27, 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep the first line and you probably have the votes. Personally, I think you cut everything except the first line, but also get rid of the martini part in the initial line, maybe put Alderaanian or Corellian ale instead.- Chosen One I will bring balance ''' 01:24, September 28, 2009 (UTC)

She can't get rid of the martini part. It's from an already released audio drama. - Brandon Rhea  (talk) 01:54, September 28, 2009 (UTC)
 * Just release a "special" edition, like Lucas. -- Josh Bender Talk 02:07, September 28, 2009 (UTC)
 * Bah, no one remembers the dialogue in the radio dramas anyway. Or perhaps they displaced the starwars dialogue with the missing minutes of the watergate tapes.- Chosen One I will bring balance ''' 02:10, September 28, 2009 (UTC)

 * 1) I loved coming up with the beginning of this quote.-- Josh Bender Talk 09:36, September 28, 2009 (UTC)
 * 2) I Love the image that comes to mind picturing Tarkin as some form of force ghost standing by Yoda. It made me laugh so it gets my vote. -- Soul Reaper 079 (Requiem) 06:53, October 1, 2009 (UTC)

 * 1) Short, sweet and to the point. Pretty good quote too.- Chosen One So the Prophecy says... ''' 05:13, October 9, 2009 (UTC)

 * #People aren't allowed to doubt and disagree? A skeptic could be a much as a hero as a believer. This quote reminds me of that hate-filled "God loves conseratives, but liberals, activists, and judges are the spawn of Satan" painting by Jon McNaughton. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 13:51, October 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * ...where did you pull that interpretation from? It's not criticizing saviors. It's saying that they always begin as skeptics. This is a fact. - Brandon Rhea Rebel symbol Blue.png (talk) 16:05, October 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * Nevermind, I misunderstood what you're talking about. I thought the quote meant that they start out as skeptics, but then become non-skeptics. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 16:14, October 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * I like that picture Michealdsuarez! Funny that Robert Mitchum is just to Jesus's right in the WW2 uniform. Ty294  {Talk}  17:29, October 9, 2009 (UTC)

 * 1) A bit too silly for my tastes, and it's not exactly something I'd expect someone to say to a Jedi Master. - Brandon Rhea Alliance Starbird.svg (talk) 18:03, October 24, 2009 (UTC)
 * 2) It's kinda funny but I agree with Rhea. It's really not something you'd expect to hear someone say in Star Wars. Ty294  {Talk}  01:11, October 25, 2009 (UTC)
 * 3) Nope. --Wylindsig.png (Conference Room)  01:14, October 25, 2009 (UTC)
