New entries or all entries?

I asked about this on the TPM talk page, but I'm repeating it here, since I saw your last edit on that page. What should go into the "locations/vehicles/characters" etc lists, new things only or all things in the film? Because Coruscant (filmwise) was first shown in ROTJ. I'm in favor of listing all things and marking "first appearance" for the ones relevant. VT-16 12:27, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

  • Those subsections don't have New in them. I won't get into it here, I replied on the Ep I talk page. -Finlayson 13:44, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Aerospace

Funny, I never noticed until now that you work in Huntsville. Is that for the Redstone Arsenal down there? Very fascinating. -- Riffsyphon1024 07:28, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

  • I added that not too long ago. I work on the industry side. Redstone and Marshall Space Flight Center are big players in the area though. -Fnlayson 16:17, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

Errant Venture

The Errant Ventuare is an Impstar Deuce (Imperial Star Destroyer II ). This is stated in The Bacta War and I, Jedi Riddick 14:15, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

  • I'll check on that. -Fnlayson 15:13, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
    • There's a section about it on the talk page where the refernce to I, Jedi is made. As for the bacta war, I read the passage yesterday, so it's still fresh in my mind.Riddick 16:01, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
      • Thanks. Found it on around pg. 339, where Booster is negotiating to get the ship. He calls it a Imperial Star Destroyer Mark II. -Fnlayson 04:04, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Gavin quote

I've checked electronic copies of both Dark Tide books and Star by Star, and no luck yet. Could be Unifying Force, though... Enochf 04:05, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

  • I only have hard copies. The Dark Tide book where the Rogues destroy the Worldship was my first guess. My next guess would be one of the Enemy Lines books. More likely the Rebel Dreram where they first take Borleias. -Fnlayson 04:11, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
    • Looks like Azizlight found it ^_^ Enochf 04:13, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
      • Yea. EoV books were further down my list. -Fnlayson 04:15, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Hiding Spoilers

  • The tag at the top of the page is there for a reason. When we brought up the topic of spoilers a while back, it was decided that we shouldn't hide them. Whether or not that was the right decision is another matter but, for now, that's policy. QuentinGeorge 02:29, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
    • I hid a major spoiler tag or two a while back when it didn't apply. As far as spoiler material, I thought the decision before was it had to be within the Spoiler brackets. For earlier novels, I know spoiler stuff was removed from article Lead sections for Jaina Solo and maybe another one. I already moved spoiler stuff out of the Lead in the Jade and Jacen articles. Oh well.. -Fnlayson 02:42, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
      • I don't know who keeps removing it from the leads, but I'd appreciate it if they wouldn't keep doing it. QuentinGeorge 02:45, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Copyediting

  • Finlayson, we could use your talents to look over Mara Jade, if you don't mind. Don't bother with the two sections that have expansion tags, or anything after 25 ABY in the bio, but if you'd look over everything else, that'd be great. Or even just some of it. ;-) Atarumaster88 20px (Talk page) 18:41, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
    • Been waiting for it the stabilize some.. -Fnlayson 18:52, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

thumb|200px|The Tramp Freighter Cross is hereby awarded to Fnlayson for his cleanup and copyediting.

Thanks, but I don't feel like I've really done anything there. Take care.. -Fnlayson 21:44, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

It seems that references are not my friends

Thanks for altering the Lobot wizards.com reference. I had thought about direct linking, but I was having so much trouble with the stupid thing that I settled for just getting Zuckuss777's link to work. I wouldn't even be able to do it now, since work blocks wizards.com. Thanks again. --School of Thrawn 101 05:08, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

  • Sure. I had to bookmark the popup page then get the link out of that. -Fnlayson 12:19, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Yet Another Vote

--> [1] I noticed that you voted on the last one they had up, so I'm trying to garner support for the against faction as it seems to be losing this time. Cheers. Livingston (The Force will be with you. Always.) 15:53, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
