Mouse Hunt
Hey Mauser, I was wondering if you would be interested in doing an OOU article, possibly Mouse Hunt. There needs to be more promoted OOU articles, and since you've expressed interest in them, I thought you would be perfect for one. Also, I am considering making an OOU project, and if I do decided to make it, would you consider joining. Kilson Likes PIE 20:02, 27 July 09 (UTC)
- It will be possible, yes. I have planes for nominating an entire comic issue someday. MauserComlink 20:17, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
Agents of Deception
They've got 10 new wallpapers up on the official SWG TCG site. I'm in the process of cropping/editing out the logo and text on them. But so I can determine if any of them have a place here, would you mind telling me what each of the cards official title is from the game? - JMAS Hey, it's me! 12:26, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
- Stang, you just beat me to it =) Okay, here they are, from left to right:
- Stim Armor
- Base of Operations
- Jawa Engineer
- Self Discipline
- Aura of Luck
- Mara Jade
- R2-D2
- Wookiee Defender
- Deuterium Rounds
- Chirq Council Sentry
- Once you've uploaded them, I'll make sure to add respective artists. MauserComlink 12:36, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
That would be great, thanks, and thanks for answering. One more question. What is the title of the card pictured on the Agents of Deception page, the one at the top of the card list? Is that a nightsister? - JMAS Hey, it's me! 13:54, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
Not an Agents of Deception query, but a Galactic Hunters one. What is the official title for this this card? Does the title, or the card itself confirm if this Twi'lek is a darksider? So far, I'd have to leave his article ambiguous as to his leanings of Force use, but the image seems fairly evident that he's using the dark side to force crush his victim. - JMAS Hey, it's me! 04:47, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
- Oh, that's a tricky one. First, this was not a Galactic Hunters, but a Squadrons Over Corellia card (the wallpapers are released regardless of the set order). The card is called Crush and is definitely of Sith archetype, meaning that the Twi'lek is at least affiliated with Sith. However, this article (along with this one) had bugged me for a while. From what I can tell, the artwork on SWGTCG cards (not necessarily only the character ones) depicts both characters from previously established continuity, the NPC's from Galaxies MMO, and the characters created specifically for the card game. So, while recognizing Boba Fett or Talon Karrde on the card takes no effort at all, realizing that the character depicted might be Rune or Drakka Judarrl might be a little more difficult. And of course new characters like Rachi Sitra and Namman Cha make appearances as well. Here we go to the point: when the character depicted on a card does not obviously fall under any of those three categories, I am not sure if that character is canonical at all. The card game is meant to be a representation of Galaxies MMO, and it does a good job of managing it. The player uses a created avatar card, with a standard picture and choosen name and stats. And I am nit sure if the usual cards depict only canonical characters, or player characters as well. It's like having a picture of a generic character in the RPG sourcebook: it might be retconned to depict a particular character, it might not. In the latter case, would we have an article for Unidentified Female Duelist when all we have of her is one picture? If we do, we might as well create s stub for every new character depicted on a SWGTCG card - by my count it would be couple of hundreds of them at least. And I have no intention of doing this not being sure that they are somewhere in the Holocron and might be identified one day. I tried to approach the designer team with this question, but they prefer to talk about gameplay rather that canon. And, by the way, if we are keeping those two articles, you may add that they lived during the Rebellion era instead of unknown time period: the game most definitely takes place at the same time as the Galaxies MMO. MauserComlink 05:22, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
- Gotcha. Thanks for the clarification. I've made the proper corrections to both those articles. - JMAS Hey, it's me! 12:10, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
OK, is this card actually found in the AoD card set? I've gone down the entire list here and I can't seem to find it. - JMAS Hey, it's me! 19:17, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
- No, it's not. It's one of the scenario-only cards, to which I have no acess cause I don't have a SWG subscription. Same goes for Axkva Min and several others. MauserComlink 19:58, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
- Ah, I see. With all the information you're able to get on the cards, I assumed you must have a membership. How is it that you're able to find all the artist information for the cards then? - JMAS Hey, it's me! 22:57, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
- Anyone can download a free trial which includes a collection manager and ability to watch other's games amongst a few other things. But, even if you spend money to buy some virtual cards, you still don't get the whole access to all features unless you have an SWG account (interestingly, even non-active SWG account will do).

Hey Mauser, I'm having difficulty writing and sourcing the information you gave me concerning Bast's role in Deleted Magic. While you said that Deleted Magic cannot be sourced as is, I'm not sure whether I should source it to the holiday special or something else. JangFett Talk 23:20, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
- That's what I actually meant. The fact the Holiday Special turns the scene with Vader and Bast from ANH into a new scene with Vader and non-Bast by replacing the entire dialogue is almost self-sourcing. MauserComlink 23:26, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Re:Evax
Well, I do think it's obvious that Evax is Human. I just feel wrong about putting his species as Human and sourcing it to the card. I'm not an expert on the SWCCG, but even though I trust what you say about the icon, I still don't think it's enough to call him Human. I mean, for all we know, he could be a Clawdite who wanted to be Human after embracing the Empire's xenophobic policies. Highly unlikely, but you get the picture. :p Anyway, thanks for the review.

RE: FEG pilot droid
Hey Mauser. The article is pretty good :-). After a quick glance I made a few tweaks, but here's a few minor things that could be improved before you take it to the GAN:
- "FEG-series droids had shown extremely well performance and an exceptional ability to adapt to rapidly changing circumstances." "extremely well performance" doesn't make sense, I was going to just try to reword it myself but thought you'd know what the source reflected better so I'll leave it to you :).
- "The customers were complacent with the model and many of them deliberately did not perform memory wipe on the FEG-series" Is "complacent" the right word for the situation? Or can you find something better.
Looks good overall, I'll give it another review when it's on the GAN, but I can't imagine too many problems :). Grunny (Talk) 10:17, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Atlas
Hey Mauser. I know you are working hard to get new Atlas info onto the Wook, but with articles like Carnovia, can you also add the source for the additional piece of info not found in the Atlas, and an infobox? It doesn't take too much more effort once you've set up a sample one to copy and paste, and it looks a lot better. For example, compare Zadaria with Carlania. --Eyrezer 22:48, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
- My fault. I know I could make most of those short stub articles better, but in most cases a quick search of the wook didn't reveal any additional info to what was in the Atlas. And since I wasn't working with the whole Atlas, but just with the one single preview, I figured that people who actually have the whole book with text pages might do a better job with it than me.

Rodian Jedi
Re that Rodian Jedi, each of the SWG expansion sets has a framing story. For SOC, it is:
- "With direct orders from the Emperor himself, Imperial Special Forces have established a Headhunter squadron on the planet of Corellia. Their mission is to seek out and destroy a secret Rebel base on the Corellian moon of Talus. Long rumored to be just a reconnaissance post, the Imperials have learned the base acts as a launching point for Rebel sabotage efforts in the Corellian system and is harboring one of the last known Jedi Knights, Rachi Sitra. The Rebel's only hope is to launch a counter attack on the Imperial squadron in hopes of buying enough time to evacuate Rachi and other key Rebel personnel."
- ―SoC
Consequently, to fit the framing story, it must be on Tralus, no? --Eyrezer 09:46, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
- Oh, no, it doesn't work like that. I know, because I played the game a bit and I'm responsible for the most edits related to it. That framing story is just for the in-game scenarios, to which only about 10 cards from each set are related. The rest of the cards show scenes set on all of the planets in the Star Wars Galaxies (Dantooine, Dathomir, Corellia etc.) - and even beyond that (some of the cards definitely depict Geonosis). So, until any new info comes out, that guy is just an Unidentified Rodian Force-user (not necessarily a Jedi) living during the Rebellion era, nothing more. MauserComlink 09:58, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks. It's a shame, but thanks nonetheless. Now that I know you're the man for the Galaxies TCG, I have a question re AoD. Basically, there is the framing story here. Is there any other info on the story to be found by playing it, or is that all there is? --Eyrezer 01:23, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
- As far as I know, there's ought to be. Each new set brings 10 new story-mode scenarios bound together by what you called "framing story". Before each of the scenarios there is a text introduction and when combined, there's way more info than in that short summary. Unfortunately, I have no access to them, since I don't have a Star Wars Galaxies subscription. MauserComlink 10:27, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

Bandon's death
Hi, Mauser. Can I revert your edits to the Malak article, due to the arguments here?--Jedi Kasra (talk) 20:02, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
- Kasra, I appreciate your hard work on the KOTOR villians, but I strongly think we should avoid any speculations in them if they are to become/remain FAs. The said order of visiting planets can be used for example in Revan's article (we do need to arrange them in some order!), but to use it to assume that Nord died on Tatooine and Bandon - on Manaan would be too much indeed. You can still keep the duel article if you rewrite it without establishing the planet, but you should avoid "establishing" the places of death of those two without a confirmation from official source.

Is there a reason you cropped the black side borders out on this image? The black borders are part of the actual cover itself, as is the case with all Saga Edition sourcebooks. I don't see why they should be cropped out, but I thought I'd check with you first before reverting in case you have a reason I'm not aware of. —Master Jonathan(Jedi Council Chambers) 19:59, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
- The black borders are definitely not part of the cover art. MauserComlink 20:12, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
- Then all of those images, except for the core rulebook, are in error. I own all of the sourcebooks and, looking at them in my lap right now, they all have the black side borders. The core rulebook is the only one that doesn't have the borders. —Master Jonathan(Jedi Council Chambers) 20:17, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
- The cover arts are square and do not have any borders. MauserComlink 20:39, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
- Because the black borders cover up the edges of the cover art. Compare the KOTOR CG cover art with the current cover image. The art is square, but our cover image is not due to having the black borders cropped out. A close look at the two shows that the left and right edges of the cover art are missing from the actual cover—this is where the art was covered up by the black borders, which were subsquently cropped out. I'm getting ready to leave home right now, but if you're still not satisfied, I can get my digital camera out when I get home late tonight and take a picture of one of the books, though I don't have the ability to scan anything. —Master Jonathan(Jedi Council Chambers) 20:51, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
- No, I do believe what you are saying. However, regardless of the actual cover, the borders are not part of the image and are irrelevant. MauserComlink 21:20, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
- IMO the purpose of the cover images is to show what the entire cover of the book looks like from edge to edge, which includes the black borders.

Planets and Systems
Hey, I see you're getting the planets as I go through and create the systems, as well as fixing some of my dumb mistakes, heh. Anyway, is there anything we could do to maybe make what we're doing easier? Suikoman444 17:58, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, I don't have Atlas at the moment and probably won't get it soon. This means I technically shouldn't add any information from it without having a way to verify it myself. The only reason I'm going through planets as you're going through systems is because all pages you create initially appear on the Special:LonelyPages page, as none of the other articles are linking to them yet. All I do is adding the region and the system to the planet article, as well as adding Atlas to the Sources section and fixing categories whenever needed. This ensures that at least one page is linking to the system page, making it no longer orphaned, but is not enough for a full update with all new Atlas info. I'm not sure how I can help you without having the book myself, so I guess I'll just have to keep doing what I'm doing. MauserComlink 18:13, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Hey Mauser. I still see no reason why "Born on Kamino" should be in the bio and intro. I prefer it to be out, per my other clone articles. I hope you can see that this is my standard that I follow, however, anything else is fine. :) JangFett Talk 23:44, September 1, 2009 (UTC)
- I'm not sure how your previous noms have passed then. If the information is in the intro, it must be in the body. Same goes for the infobox: if it is there, it must be in the body as well. Also, please take nore of the message on the top of this page. MauserComlink 23:49, September 1, 2009 (UTC)

Should you ever start another TC thread for VT-16fanon, please let me know and I will semi-protect the TC page so banned users will no longer be influencing site policy. Toprawa and Ralltiir 21:28, September 2, 2009 (UTC)
Chubbits in Dark Times
Hey, Mauser! I just read the last two issues of Star Wars Dark Times, and I was curious what the lizard-like slaves were that we see with the Nosaurians. I noticed you had added Dark Times to the appearances on the Chubbit page, so I was wondering where this species identification came from. Have these lizard-guys been conclusively IDed as Chubbits? I hope so, but I wanted to make sure! ~ SavageBob 23:37, September 2, 2009 (UTC)
- Star Wars Dark Times: Blue Harvest 0 includes concept art for those indiviuals, labeled as "Chubbit Slaves". Also, some VIP mentioned them on the forums - either TFN or Dark Horse boards (more likely), can't remember exactly now. MauserComlink 23:41, September 2, 2009 (UTC)
- OK, cool! Glad to see another classic-era creation brought back by the Dark Times folks. ~ SavageBob 01:22, September 3, 2009 (UTC)
Techno-service droid
I'm speaking to you personally regarding this image debate since you seem to be taking such an active involvement in what is going on here. I have replaced the images of which are canonically identified as being this droid model. If you disagree, that is your right; I recommend further hashing this out on the talk page with our TCW experts rather than shooting first and asking questions later. This goes for everyone involved.

Atlas images for Regions
Considering how much you've been working with Atlas material I figured I'd ask you if its alright if I scan the region maps and upload them to Wookiee, or have you already done that yourself and haven't gotten to it yet? -- Riffsyphon1024 09:46, September 4, 2009 (UTC)
- Ah, nevermind. I just read that you don't have the book. My mistake. -- Riffsyphon1024 09:47, September 4, 2009 (UTC)
- I would naturally welcome any new scans, and I'm not the only one who'll be interested in them. However, by my estimation, I'm stuck with the Appendix for at least the next 20 days, so... MauserComlink 09:53, September 4, 2009 (UTC)
- Okie dokie. I already got the first scan for the Deep Core up. Besides that one, it's difficult to get the other maps perfect without the scanner cutting off the sides. -- Riffsyphon1024 10:15, September 4, 2009 (UTC)
- There, all the region maps are up. Like I said, some are cut off due to the constraints of my scanner, but will they hold up until we can get better versions? -- Riffsyphon1024 11:20, September 4, 2009 (UTC)

Vassek system
Does one of the sources/appearances actually state that Gunray went to the Vassek system? He wasn't physically there in the episode. They could merely have stripped the tracking beacon from the ship and taken it to Grievous's castle to lure the Jedi there. - JMAS Hey, it's me! 13:29, September 4, 2009 (UTC)
- None as far as I know of, I just copy-pasted the existing info. Feel free to either add {{fact}} tag, or remove it altogether. MauserComlink 13:30, September 4, 2009 (UTC)
Examples
Would you like me to point out an ample supply of examples where the subject is not perfectly centered in an infobox? If the only way to get the face centered is with a crop that makes the image look bad, then it's better to have the face slightly, and it was only slightly, off-center. - JMAS Hey, it's me! 13:23, September 5, 2009 (UTC)
- How exactly does my version look bad? Also, 60px is not slightly for such a small image. MauserComlink 13:26, September 5, 2009 (UTC)
- The image looked balanced. You could see his whole head, both shoulders. His head is slightly angled towards his left shoulder. So while his nose may not have been dead-center pixel-wise, the image actually looked more "centered" before. - JMAS Hey, it's me! 13:32, September 5, 2009 (UTC)
Valorsian
Hey, Mauser. Is there a source that explicitly says that the Valorsians are a species? From the context in Planet of Twilight, it's equally possible that the word "Valorsian" simply means "a person from Valorsi" in the same way that "Corellian" means "a person from Corellia" and not "a member of a species called "Corellians." ~ SavageBob 13:53, September 5, 2009 (UTC)
- Not as far as I know of. I simply put it in that category before previous one was obviously incorrect. MauserComlink 14:00, September 5, 2009 (UTC)
- Well, the problem is what category does something like that go into when it could be a species, but it could also be a word like "Corellian" and "Hapan." Category:Social institutions is the only thing that seems to sort of work. Any other suggestions? ~ SavageBob 14:11, September 5, 2009 (UTC)
- No, even if they are Hapan-like, they can still be called a species or sub-species. See for yourself, the Category:Social institutions works in neither case. MauserComlink 14:13, September 5, 2009 (UTC)
- Well, I've looked into it a bit more, and TEA does indeed use the term like "Corellian" (see p. 214). It's even more complicated, since it uses the term to refer to individuals of many species, much the same way that "Tatooinan" could refer to a human or a Jawa. What do you think about simply merging the info from Valorsian to Valorsi? We typically don't have articles on things like "Eriaduan" or "Bespinian." ~ SavageBob 14:22, September 5, 2009 (UTC)
- That would be okay with me. MauserComlink 14:23, September 5, 2009 (UTC)
- OK, will do. Thanks for your input, and sorry to have bothered you with all this! ~ SavageBob 14:26, September 5, 2009 (UTC)
