Talk: MimbanMudGang

Welcome, MimbanMudGang!

Hello, MimbanMudGang, and welcome to Wookieepedia! We hope you like the place and choose to join us in building the best Star Wars encyclopedia there is. Here are some things you should know:

Wookieepedia is the Star Wars encyclopedia that anyone can edit, but we are not a general Star Wars forum nor an all-inclusive trivia site.
In-universe articles are written in past tense and from a neutral point of view. Our Manual of Style and Layout Guide form the basis for writing on Wookieepedia.
All additions to Wookieepedia must be sourced and attributed to a reliable, official source. Fan fiction is welcome on the Star Wars Fanon Wiki.
As a registered Wookieepedia user, you are entitled to a user page and a unique signature. Eventually you will also gain the right to vote on community matters.
Remember to be nice to your fellow Wookieepedians. Avoid making personal attacks and engaging in edit wars. Using multiple accounts is not allowed.
Talk pages and forums are part of the public record and comments on them, including your own user talk page, should be left intact. Remember to sign your comments by typing four tildes, like this: ~~~~

New to wikis? Don't worry, we were all new once. Our help pages will get you started, and the Jundland Wastes sandbox can be used for test edits. Don't be afraid to make mistakes—be bold!

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wookieepedian! If you have any questions, you can consult our FAQ, ask a question in the Senate Hall forum, visit our official IRC channel, or leave me a message on my talk page.
May the Force be with you! —DarthRuiz30 (talk) 23:26, June 25, 2019 (UTC)

Imperial Army trooper

We don't establish names, Wookieepedia only uses official sources to get names. Until a SW source (book, comic, series, movie, etc.) establishes a name for those guys, we can't do nothing. Also remember to sign your comments on talk pages using four tildes, like this ~~~~. Thanks--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 04:55, June 26, 2019 (UTC)

Ok but it makes too much sense for these dudes to be called "Imperial Army troopers". Rio refers to himself as an imperial trooper when Han calls him out, Imperial Naval troopers exist and army troopers make sense as an equivalent. There are already too many conjectural canon articles and honestly it just shows a lack of creativity. Think of it like this in the simplest terms: they are troopers within the imperial army. Literally what else would they be called? Legends had it right.MimbanMudGang (talk) 06:46, June 26, 2019 (UTC)

Social media is not a source for confirmation.--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 19:39, June 26, 2019 (UTC)
- Take a look to the canon policy. It says that social media is not a source for information.--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 19:48, June 26, 2019 (UTC)
  - These guys literally run the Story group, what they say goes. MimbanMudGang (talk) 19:51, June 26, 2019 (UTC)
    - In the past we used the tweets of members of the Story Group before and that didn't work out at all, so we've tried that way before. Also, when it comes to canon, it's only their personal opinions. They themselves have said not to use their words as sources. The only time we can use social media as a source when it comes to people saying things are for behind the scenes information and when they address contradictions or easter eggs. The Story Group does not dictate actual canon subjects through social media.--Vitus Infinitus^Talk 20:03, June 26, 2019 (UTC)

Recommendation

Just leave it, you're getting close to violating a Three-revert rule, which could lead to a temporary cooldown block. It can be frustrating, but that's how we're treating those soldiers for the moment.--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 20:46, June 26, 2019 (UTC)

Infobox

When adding a new picture into an infobox, please format the file like this. Thanks--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 02:16, July 7, 2019 (UTC)

Copy that boss, thanks for the heads up MimbanMudGang (talk) 01:42, July 8, 2019 (UTC)

RE:Image reverts

Hey! I left a summary for my reasoning but basically all images in the Grand Admiral article were of Thrawn, so it's better to have someone who isn't Thrawn to have a better range of the subject on the article. For the Battle of Yavin, the one you had was an image that was before the battle began, so it's not suitable for the infobox, and the previous image was high quality and demonstrated a larger part of the event. If you think that they should still be changed feel free to bring it up on their respected talk pages, thanks!--Vitus Infinitus^Talk 23:29, July 9, 2019 (UTC)

Also do not use all caps on the edit summary, even if its to write Edit summary. Thanks--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 23:41, July 9, 2019 (UTC)

RE:Jedi Knight

Is a representation of the job, not an individual. Just like the Legends article, there's nothing wrong with it--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 21:20, July 12, 2019 (UTC)

Then why is the image representing Jedi Master a picture of Yoda? MimbanMudGang (talk) 21:20, July 12, 2019 (UTC)

Because so far, that I know of, there's not an image similar to the Jedi Knight to represent the Jedi Master.--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 21:22, July 12, 2019 (UTC)

Moving pages

Please be careful when moving pages. You need to select "(Main)" from the drop down menu, not "Wookieepedia", which is meant for pages related to the working of the site itself, eg Wookieepedia:Policies. Tommy Macaroni 18:33, July 14, 2019 (UTC)

Warning: Civility

This is a warning to you regarding your edit here, with the edit summary "Reworked the wording of this article because whoever wrote it clearly reads at a 4th grade level." Wookieepedia's Civility policy lists judgmental tones in edit summaries as an example of incivility on our wiki. There's no need to belittle or insult the contributions of others when editing articles. If something needs fixing, then fix it and move on, and save your comments for yourself. Continuing along these lines may result in a block from editing. Thank you for your cooperation. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 21:55, July 22, 2019 (UTC)

GAR quote

There's no need to use the whole quote, its not all relevant to the GAR --Lewisr (talk) 23:10, August 21, 2019 (UTC)

It's the speech that created the grand army, besides, the quote you insist on using is inaccurate. It should begin with AND. MimbanMudGang (talk) 20:54, August 22, 2019 (UTC)

Yes but the entire quote isn't needed, okay so just add the and? --Lewisr (talk) 20:55, August 22, 2019 (UTC)

I just think that providing the entire quote provides better depth to the situation that the quote is referring to. Captioning the quote with "Chancellor Sheev Palpatine, to the Galactic Senate" gives context. The current quote is devoid of detail. MimbanMudGang (talk) 20:57, August 22, 2019 (UTC)

The quote refers to his "new authority". A casual fan may ask, "what new authority"? The more detail the better. There should be a reference to his acquisition of emergency powers. MimbanMudGang (talk) 20:59, August 22, 2019 (UTC)

The quote its fine as it is, we don't need an entire speech if just a small part of the quote focuses on the article in question. Either we can add "And" to the quote or "…" to indicate that its part of a speech.--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 21:00, August 22, 2019 (UTC)

The entire speech focuses on the article. The grand army was created in this scene. The current quote is barebones and should be expanded upon MimbanMudGang (talk) 21:03, August 22, 2019 (UTC)

As I said, the quote its fine. Feel free to add the "and" or the "…".--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 21:06, August 22, 2019 (UTC)

Edit summary

Edit summaries are for helpful information regarding changes in the article. Your edit summary "WORD CHOICES" is unnecessary, so please stop writing that kind of edit summaries. Edit summaries should be only used when necessary to let know about the type of correction or edit you did, like: "Rewording, Typo, Updated, etc" not you just complaining for "Word Choices"--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 18:49, August 29, 2019 (UTC)

Once again, I remind you about this.--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 06:37, December 24, 2019 (UTC)

Cal Kestis' various lightsabers

Hi there, you seem to be getting confused between this lightsaber, which is his first one and his master's one, which Kestis used after Order 66. Cal then builds a new lightsaber so that's why his padawan weapon is named like that. Kind regards Darth Tomotron (talk) 07:13, December 14, 2019 (UTC)

Conjecture

Hey so when we have the {{Conjecture}} message on a page, all that is saying we don't know for sure that is the subject's canon name because it hasn't actually been called that in a source. For example, the Battle of Starkiller Base was at "Assault on Starkiller Base" for some time because it had been called the latter by the Databank, but wasn't identified as the former until later. This is just to avoid misleading readers into thinking a name that we chose because it's the logical title for the page is an official name that's been used in canon. I don't doubt in the case of Battle of Exegol that it will eventually receive that name, but for the time being it's not confirmed so we have to be clear that it's just conjecture. Hope that clears things up! :) Toqgers (talk) 06:51, December 24, 2019 (UTC)

Warning

This is your final warning before your first block for violating our Civility policy. As the policy reads "Judgmental tone in edit summaries" are an example of incivility. If something needs fixing, just do it and continue working on what you're doing. --DarthRuiz30 (talk) 01:35, December 25, 2019 (UTC)

Moving pages

Please for high traffic pages first put in the talk page why you think it should be moved from one conjectural name to another. Social media is not a source, and there's multiple sources that I'm pretty sure that mention the word war.--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 04:31, January 26, 2020 (UTC)

Garrick, Battle of Endor

Please stop adding Garrick Versio to the list of commanders in the Battle of Endor page. Versio commanded a single Star Destroyer, not the entire fleet unlike Piett or Sloane. It isn't a participation list otherwise we'd have to add everyone with a rank to that list. I've fought hard to keep that list clear of single Star Destroyer / Star Cruiser captains (admittedly lost having all the squadron leaders there). Versio didn't command anything other than his Star Destroyer during the battle, that's pretty clear from Battlefront II. If you want to have a list of participants, make one but stop adding Versio to the commanders list since he wasn't an overall theatre commander which is what that list is about.--Noash Retrac (talk) 06:41, February 13, 2020 (UTC)

Warning

Thank you for contributing to Wookieepedia! Please note that at least one of your recent additions added unverified information to a mainspace article. Additions to Wookieepedia's articles must be verifiable by a reliable source per our sourcing policy, and unverified information may be reverted or deleted. Continuing to add unverified information may lead to you being blocked from editing by an administrator. Thank you. --DarthRuiz30 (talk) 00:59, April 26, 2020 (UTC)

I also recommend you to familiarize with our Layout Guide and the rules for infoboxes --DarthRuiz30 (talk) 00:59, April 26, 2020 (UTC)

Blocked

You have been blocked from editing for 1 week, for adding unsourced information to articles despite multiple warnings. You have already been provided with sufficient links instructing you on how to source edits. If this happens again, expect an even longer block. To contest this block, please contact the blocking administrator with the reason you believe the block is unjustified. Tommy Macaroni 10:33, April 29, 2020 (UTC)

Mandalorians Serving the Confederacy

To be fair, the Empire did also occupy Mandalore. But sourcing it to Death Watch's affiliation with the CIS is better than solely based on Jango's so feel free to do that --Lewisr (talk) 20:08, May 7, 2020 (UTC)

Removing templates

Hi there, please do not remove the {{Fact}} template from articles without supplying an appropriate source for the info, as you did here. Thank you. RattsT (talk) 02:47, August 16, 2020 (UTC)

Darth Sidious

To prevent an edit war I'm going to lay out my reasoning here. First of all, yes it is called an Empire on its page, but if you'd read a few more words you'd see it is only a theoretical Empire, which means its never came to actually exist, so therefore it shouldn't be listed on his page. Unless you can find an example of a status article that includes a theoretical organisation in its affiliations then I don't see why it should be listed --Lewisr (talk) 01:37, 16 January 2021 (UTC)

Xyston

Hello, MimbanMudGang. I'm leaving this message on your talk page to let you know to be more careful with the language you use on Wookieepedia. Please remember to speak from a neutral point of view, as well as a formal, in-universe tone to keep in line with WP:NPOV. Your recent contributions to Xyston-class Star Destroyer currently exhibit some NPOV implications and signs of an out-of-universe perspective. Thank you for your cooperation. Erebus Chronus ^(Talk) 20:15, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

Consensus

Hey there! Please be aware that for major characters like Ben Solo, Luke/Rey Skywalker etc, it would be beneficial to ask on the pages talk page before going ahead with changing quotes/images, others might disagree with your changes, so it would be better to have a consensus reached between users before we go ahead with making these sort of changes Lewisr (talk) 04:02, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

Discord

Hi there. I've noticed that you've been quite active lately, so I highly recommend that you join Wookieepedia's Discord server. Most active editors on the wiki are also active there, discussing Wookieepedia matters such as infobox images and sourcing—as well as simply socialising, if they wish. Essentially, editors can communicate and coordinate efforts through Discord, which makes editing easier for everyone. I hope to see you hop on to the server! OOM 224 20:37, 5 August 2021 (UTC)
