Re:Pictures

• There's no edit number. Your account will be able to upload images a few days after you start editing with it, so if you're still having problems in a couple days, contact me. :) Atarumaster88 ^{(Talk page)} 18:06, May 14, 2011 (UTC)
  • Yes, we have disambiguation pages. You would create a page at "PAGENAME (disambiguation)", disambiguate it, and then create PAGENAME (planet) and PAGENAME (person). The actual PAGENAME article would depend on which one was more prominent. For example, our Death Star article points to the first Death Star while Death Star (disambiguation) serves to disambiguate the term. Atarumaster88 ^{(Talk page)} 19:05, May 14, 2011 (UTC)
    • The redirect code is #REDIRECT PAGENAME so #REDIRECT [[Form IV: Ataru]] would redirect a page to Form IV: Ataru. Atarumaster88 ^{(Talk page)} 19:20, May 14, 2011 (UTC)

Removing content

It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from 3032 BBY. Please be careful not to remove content from Wookieepedia without a valid reason, which you should specify in the edit summary or on the article's talk page. Thank you.

Re: 3,032 BBY

Source for your statement? Imperators II^(Talk) 19:26, May 14, 2011 (UTC)

• In The Power of the Jedi Sourcebook, it says that Ermin "visited" (and not discovered) the Oracle "some 3000 years before the rise of the empire" (p.147).
  • OK. A few notes, though:
    1. "Rise of the Empire" in this case refers to 19 BBY (the Declaration of a New Order), since it would be highly unlikely the real-world Rise of the Empire era would be mentioned in in-universe context.
    2. If you think a page should be deleted, never remove content (which is considered vandalism), but instead add the {{Delete}} tag at the top of the article and note the reason on its talk page.
    3. Please always sign your comments with four tildes, like this: ~~~~.
    4. And thanks for the info. Imperators II^(Talk) 19:43, May 14, 2011 (UTC)

Krin Koda

Hey Eledhwen, in the article Krin Koda, is that sentence that you put in quotes something that an individual says, or something that the narrative of the book says? If it's the latter, it shouldn't be the leading quote, because quotes in articles should be something said by a particular individual. Thanks!—Axinal ^{Convocation Chamber} 21:10, May 14, 2011 (UTC)

• Cool, thanks!—Axinal ^{Convocation Chamber} 00:53, May 15, 2011 (UTC)

Signing your comments

Hey Eledhwen, please remember to sign your comments, as I noted to you in the above comment. Thanks! Imperators II^(Talk) 22:14, May 14, 2011 (UTC)

Edit history

Hey Eledhwen. If you check the article's edit history (the panel beside "Article", "Discussion" and "Leave message" at the top of the page), you'll see who has done what to the article and why. Cheers! Imperators II^(Talk) 23:04, May 14, 2011 (UTC)

File names

Hi there, when uploading files in future please try to refrain from adding extraneous and, in some cases, potentially buggy characters to the filenames; typically commas (,) and additional periods (.) other than the one before the file extension. Something like "Scitrok Warriors (Galaxy Guide 8, p.85).JPG" could be more simply put as "ScitrokWarriors-GG8.jpg", the additional source info can go in the source field of the file info box (which you have done) so doesn't need to be put in the filename. I've tagged the images you have uploaded with {{FTBR}} for you. This isn't a warning or anything so don't worry, just some advice to help reduce technical problems in the future. Cheers, NAYAYEN 16:25, May 15, 2011 (UTC)

Re:Sources

• If you ask me, it'd clutter up the layout to have all these page numbers by our Sources sections. The other thing is that there are different editions, printings, etc. of sources and so the page numbers aren't categorically the same. Some people have put precise page numbers in their references—it's not required but AFAIK not forbidden either. Atarumaster88 ^{(Talk page)} 03:32, May 17, 2011 (UTC)
