I Understand

I respect your decision about grammar and won't change it anymore- though it might take me a while to get used to it. Thanks DarthBarrack 16:29 11 Oct 2006 (UTC)

  • I unserstand. No problem. Personally I don't care whether British or American English is the standard, but it was decided right from the beginning, I think, that the standard was to be US English. Granted, the reason for chosing US English is a bit lame. The reason was something this: "Since Star Wars was created by Americans, we should use American English." Not entirely convincing i you ask me, but that's just the way it is. KEJ 08:17, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

Novel References

Just to let you know, you don't need to post the authors of a novel when marking it as a source. Demented Smiloid 19:28, 22 Oct 2005 (UTC)

  • But you can if you like. The Wookieepedia community has not come to consensus on a standardized source style. If you're working on an existing article, it is good form to add new sources in the style of existing entries. --SparqMan 22:47, 22 Nov 2005 (UTC)
    • That's okay, I've given up posting the names of the authors, even though I'd prefer to actually list 'em.KEJ 22:48, 22 Nov 2005 (UTC)

Dark Forces saga

Closing VfD on the Dark Forces characters category, so I went ahead created a very stubbish Dark Forces saga article for you just to retain the list that was there. Have fun working on the article. WhiteBoy 23:34, 10 Dec 2005 (UTC)

  • BTW, if you decide you don't want to do this list article, just let me know and I'll delete it. WhiteBoy 00:48, 11 Dec 2005 (UTC)
    • Thanks ;-) KEJ 19:55, 11 Dec 2005 (UTC)
  • Great job with the article. It seems that the article needs to be named something else, though. Maybe List of Dark Forces characters or something? What do you think? WhiteBoy 16:56, 12 Dec 2005 (UTC)
    • I don't know. I was planning on including a list of locations as well. I will also change the introductory text at some point. But yeah, the name should probably be something else. For now, as a provisional title, it's okay though, I think KEJ 17:06, 12 Dec 2005 (UTC)

Template:DidYouKnow & Template:DidYouKnow/archive

Hey KEJ. When you add new pieces do Template:DidYouKnow, please also add them to Template:DidYouKnow/archive under the appropriate date. Thanks! --SparqMan 18:03, 16 Dec 2005 (UTC)

  • Somehow I got the idea that it was done automatically, but thanks for telling me. I'll remember it for next time KEJ 02:15, 17 Dec 2005 (UTC)

Image sources

Hey KEJ. Please include sources for your images when uploading. Thanks. --SparqMan 22:15, 22 Dec 2005 (UTC)

  • Okay KEJ 22:49, 22 Dec 2005 (UTC)

Image

  • Please feel free to ask for any image from a comic book. As you did with Arista Kabul. Themelle444 16:24, 27 Dec 2005 (UTC)
    • Sure. Thanks for the service ;-) KEJ 16:26, 27 Dec 2005 (UTC)

== The Palpatine page is having another format vote ==

Seems that a certain DannyBoy has clashed with Starkeiller over a small matter, which blew into a larger matter, and now a formal vote is being held on if the Palpatine page is to be written with prose, or just "concisely," as they define an encyclopedia article to be. If you want your voice heard, then please go to the Talk: Palpatine page and vote, and sooner rather than later.

God bless, and happy new year! Erik Pflueger 16:12, 2 Jan 2006 (UTC)

  • Thanks for telling me. I thought we'd already settled on this matter. I'll have a look at it immediately KEJ 19:17, 2 Jan 2006 (UTC)

Portuguese

Lol man... Você fala português também?

  • Falo um poucadinho português ;-) KEJ 09:00, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Lol... Portuguese from Portugal or Brazil? xD -Stake black 20:40, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
    • Primarily Portuguese from Portugal, but I know some Brazilian Portuguese expressions as well. KEJ 22:44, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
      • Awesome man! Do you know any other brazilian users here on Wookieepedia? =p -Stake black 15:57, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
        • Infelizmente não. Só você. ;-) KEJ 18:05, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Hey, KEJ, check this new Wiki =D

http://pt.starwars.wikia.com/wiki/P%C3%A1gina_principal Hey, if you would like to contribute with ANYTHING at all it helps xDD cyaz

  • I can't really see anything on the URL... I just get a white screen. KEJ 07:12, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
    • Uh, try using Firefox... It works on all firefox browsers —Stake Black talk -Contribsat 20:43, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
      • Yup, it works in Firefox ;-) It's a great idea KEJ 09:00, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

CSD

Please stop abusing CSD. Read Forum:Attempt to clarify template usage. - Sikon [Talk] 15:40, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Are you accusing be of abuse?!?! Did you bother to read my justification for moving the text back to Dark Forces saga and deleting Jedi Knight saga??? You can still see it in the history. Since we are not allowed to delete useless articles anymore, I'm going to redirect from Jedi Knight saga to Dark Forces saga. KEJ 15:43, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
    • Nobody is accusing you. I didn't know about the second article, the talk page and the deletion reason said nothing. Indeed a redirect is better in this situation. - Sikon [Talk] 15:53, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
      • It was obviously an accusation, as was your comment in the summary of the article, saying "I told you not to abuse CSD? Yes I did. And don't replace the entire article with the CSD tag", obvisously (falsely) accusing me of repeated abuse of the CSD and also (falsely) stating that you've communicated with me previously on the matter (of course it's possible that you used the generic 'you' with reference to all wookipeedians and not just me). I'm trying - in good faith - my best to contribute positively to Wookipeedia and do not want to be associated with abuse or vandalism or anything else. KEJ 16:02, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
        • You are surely a good contributor, and I don't associate you with vandalism. I remember, however, previously removing the CSD template from articles that weren't quite speedy deletion candidates, and some of them were put by you. Sorry if I offended you, I didn't mean to. - Sikon [Talk] 16:13, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
          • I was offended since it sounded like an accusation to me. But if it wasn't intended as such then nevermind. I'd like to say, though, that I don't use CSD very often. Being maniacly democratic, I prefer VFDs in stead. I have CSD-tagged some articles in the past. The only one I remember being "untagged" was Pluorr Ilo which Riffsyphoon turned into a redirect. I am not aware of other articles CSD-tagged by me being "untagged" by somebody else, and I do not recall having been told not to use the CSD-tag in the past. Just out of curiousity, I'd like to know which articles you are referring to. KEJ 16:37, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

You are an Idiot . . . . . . . . page

You gotta update your prank new messages thingy to reflect the new new messages template--The Erl of the KEJ/Archive 1 talk What I do 00:42, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

  • Thanks. Let's see if I get around to it. I nicked it from somebody else's userpage any way ;-) KEJ 07:05, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Jedi Academy pics

Hey man! I was wondering if you could take some screenshots without the HUB from Jedi Academy from the Korriban level, for the Battle of Korriban (Galactic Civil War) article. Maybe a screenshot of some Jedi and Dark Jedi fighting simultaneouly or something. And perhaps a screenie from the final cutscene, where Luke and Kyle show up, and start going down the stairs. I'm asking because I don't have the game right now xD Oh, and if you could get a picture of Korriban like this without the HUB, it would be greatly appreciated ^^

Thanks anyway man! -Stake Black talk -Contribs at 18:00, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

  • I'll do that when I complete the game. I've lost my old save games, so I'll have to start all over - doesn't matter, it's a good game ;-) KEJ 18:19, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
    • Heh, no problem =D. Do you know how to make the Hub go away and have clear view without the player's body? xD -Stake Black talk -Contribs at 18:26, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
      • If I did know, I must have forgotten. Spmeone told me once, but I don't remember. Que porcaria :-( KEJ 19:03, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
        • lol! Well, to take off the HUB I don't remember, but to have clear screen, you have to bind noclip, and between changing weapons, quickly press it. Só isso =D Stake Black talk -Contribs at 22:28, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
          • Obrigado :-) KEJ 22:40, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

Image uploads

Why are the Jedi Outcast images so dark? File:Mining drill.jpg just looks like a black hole. Darth Culator 18:59, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

  • The image really isn't all that dark...--Redemption 19:02, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
  • I think it depends on screen calibrations and stuff. They look pretty dark on one of my monitors but not on the other. You're welcome to process them in Photo Shop or something if they look to dark. KEJ 19:09, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
    • Just checked on another monitor/screen, and they're fine. KEJ 09:23, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
      • Hey are you able to get a screenshot for the Mine crab page? --Eyrezer 21:55, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
        • I might, if I saved the game in the level (which I think I did). KEJ 08:39, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

Jedi Academy image

  • KEJ, can you get an image of the Rebellious Cultist of the Chandrila level? He's the cultist conversing with the other during the beginning of the level. --Bly1993
  • [[I will, when I get to that leve (you see I've lost all my saves, so I have to play the game again). KEJ 20:05, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Category:Fleets

Remember not to leave a space in Category:Fleets. -- SFH 19:42, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

  • You got it. KEJ 19:43, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

Jedi Outcast

Hi KEJ. I noticed you did a lot of work on the Jedi Outcast mission pages. I don't have the game but am looking for a relevant quote to go on the Empire Reborn, for the invasion of the Jedi Praxeum section. Are you able to check the game to see if Desann or Galak make a quotable statement in it? --Eyrezer 11:43, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

  • I'll check next time I play the game. KEJ 18:51, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
    • Thanks. I'd appreciate if you'd have a look at the Empire Reborn article and consider voting for it in the FA nominations. --Eyrezer 21:12, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
      • I thought I'd already voted for it, but maybe I never got around to it after all. KEJ 21:44, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

Image upload

KEJ- would you be able to upload a picture of a Mark I droid walker from Jedi Outcast? The page really needs a pic. Bly1993

  • I'll keep it in mind. I already have a stack of requests for images from the JK games. I haven't played them for a while, but I'll make sure to take some good screenshots next time I play. KEJ 15:09, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

Do not

please, don't put My images (image of Empress Teta) before I be on time to do this - wait at least 5 minutes after upload time, cause mayby someone is just doing that same what YOU ARE. SkywalkerPL 11:58, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

  • Take it easy, man. Does it matter who adds the image to the article, as long as it gets done? I added the image because I though it was much better than the one that was there originally (and please don't use capitals - it's rude, it's like yelling). KEJ 12:13, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

where did you get those userboxes?

When i look up Userbozes, there isn't a big list, how come? Where do you find them?

Master Nikolce 07:03, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

  • Basically, I nicked them from other userpages and then changed the text and configurations. KEJ 09:07, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

what do you mean? Master Nikolce 09:25, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

    • I found them on other user pages, and then I copy-pasted (through the edit function) them onto my own and changed the text and configuration. For instance, if you click "edit" on my user page, you will have access to all the codes and stuff for the user boxes, then you can copy-paste them onto your own and play around with the codes and text and stuff. KEJ 09:56, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Fair Enough. About some of your userboxes, what's wrong with those characters? Master Nikolce 09:12, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

  • They're not among my favorite Star Wars characters, to put it diplomatically. I just find Carth, Bastila and Kreia to be annoying elements of their respective games, and I just don't like Greivous in EPIII... I think he's okay though in the Clone Wars animated series though. KEJ 12:27, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

To me, i didn't find Bastila that annoying, though a bit cute, Carth is more at an understandable point of view for me, but as for Kreia, i don't have Kotor 2, so i wouldn't know. For Greivous, i found him alright, good voice too. Master Nikolce 09:34, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Jar Jar Binks

Hi, I'm just going around to a few users that I know...or have seen around a lot, and asking for their opinion on Jar Jar Binks, since I'm close to submitting it to FA. Your opinion would be much appreciated. .... 10:28, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

  • I had nothing to do with the Cultural aspects of the article - what I did was flesh out the bio and the personality sections. I'm not familiar with Star Bores, though. But I'm glad you think that it's good enough...would you give it a support? .... 10:56, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
    • Much appreciated...even if it is an ungodly character. I'll probably put it up in a few days...just want to test the water a little bit...my Panaka article is getting ripped to shreds at the FA noms. .... 10:59, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
      • Well thanks! Though I am embarrassed to admit - I'm one of the advocators of Palpatine being way to long. .... 11:27, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
        • Right, gotcha. Well, really, my complaint isn't that it's too long, but that it's disproportionate. .... 11:32, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

On the left On the right

LOL :-) --Azizlight 10:14, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Sorry, dude, I couldn't help it. Love the picture though ;-) KEJ 10:44, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

What you look like

When did I say that? Brain40

Freckles

No reason. Mostly because I pictured you as this friend of mine I know - again, for no reason... at all - and if I'd have said his name I would have gotten funny looks, because I don't think anyone would know him. I don't know why... his name begins with a J, so maybe it was the J that did it. -Solus 23:24, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Thanks to Solus I now see you as a character from some obscure Danish children's cartoon. Freckled, brown-haired and wearing a red cap. --Imp 23:27, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
    • LOL, who could that be? Honestly, I have no clue. KEJ 23:37, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
      • Well, IIRC, the cartoon is about a racially diverse school class (there's the token black guy and all) who are being harassed by their mean and really ugly teacher. The kid I'm talking about looked like that frog (named Frog-something) from some other obscure Danish children's show. :P --Imp 23:57, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
        • Orla Frøsnapper? KEJ 06:11, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
        • I've started a real mess, haven't I? At any rate, since I found out that you were not as I pictured you, my dreams are shattered and my world is ended. You fiend. You couldn't at least have freckles...? :P (Just kidding) -Solus 01:33, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
          • Well, it's always interesting to know where people get their conceptions from only to blast them into atoms afterwards. MWUAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! KEJ 06:11, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
            • Lol. How do you picture me? <gets out appearance-into-atoms blaster>-Solus 11:53, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
              • More or less like the image on your user page. KEJ 11:55, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
