Unverified info
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. Grand Moff Tranner (Comlink) 17:09, August 12, 2012 (UTC)

- "90% sure" isn't good enough. Similarly, articles are not based on vague recollections. Either find a source for it, or don't add it at all. Grand Moff Tranner

- That's not how it works here. Nice try though. Grand Moff Tranner

Image uploading
Okay, how to get passed the "description" and "licensing" fields... Well, you need to make sure that you have those fields filled out, for one. What is the image depicting? Say you were uploading an image of Cade Skywalker. In the "Description" field, you'd put something like "Cade Skywalker holds his blaster gangsta style." Then, in the source section, you'd put in where the image came from. For this example, we'll say it came from a comic. Then, you'd put in that comic that it came from (exact issue number). In the "author" section, you'd put in the artist, which would be Jan Duursema for this example. Then, in the "copyright" or "licensing" field, you'd pick that it's a comic panel scan from the drop-down menu.
As for uploading from a URL, I don't think you can do that. You would have to save the image on your computer and upload it directly from that. Hope that helps! And remember to sign your posts with four tildes (~~~~) Trak Nar Ramble on 03:45, September 10, 2012 (UTC)
- You can hit the sig button, or you can press the tilde key four times. This key is located on the left of the "1" key in the number row of the keyboard. Hold "shift" and press that key (which has ` and ~ on it) four times and that will make your signature, including the timestamp. :) Trak Nar Ramble on 03:51, September 10, 2012 (UTC)
- Hm. That error I am not quite familiar with. Darth Culator may be able to help, as he is more familiar with the filters than I am. However, he prolly won't respond until tomorrow. Also, Grunny might be able to answer your question, and he's a bit more prompt in responding to comments, so hopefully he'll be able to get this thing sorted. :) Trak Nar Ramble on 07:53, September 10, 2012 (UTC)
- Oh, after looking at the filters, it appears that you may not yet be autoconfirmed, which restricts new users from uploading images. Grunny may be able to help you with that aspect. Trak Nar Ramble on 08:03, September 10, 2012 (UTC)
- In order to upload an image, you need to be autoconfirmed (your account needs to be four days old), you need to have a verified email address, and at least 50 edits in the article namespace. Once you meet all the criteria, you should be able to upload images. Cheers, 1358 (Talk) 08:13, September 10, 2012 (UTC)

- Ajunta Pall is talking about the Exiles, not the others who have been entombed in the Valley of the Dark Lords. I rather doubt he mentions Marka Ragnos, Tulak Hord, or Naga Sadow by name—they were most certainly not former Jedi. I strongly suggest that you read their articles, and see during which time periods each lived. And please heed the above warning. Cade Calrayn

Image trouble
Just so you know, I've replied to your question in my talk page. Check it out there. Winterz (talk) 18:31, September 13, 2012 (UTC)
- Like I already said to resize an image, you do everything regularly but add the 250px (it's an example though that size is the one commonly used in userboxes and infoboxes). This how you add an image after uploading it:
- Inside the bracketts [[ ]], write down File:NAME OF FILE. If you want to resize it would be something like File:NAME OF FILE|250px inside the bracketts. If you still can't understand it, then I'm sorry but I can't help you more than that. It's simple enough. Winterz (talk) 18:37, September 13, 2012 (UTC)
User Image
Hey there, ORACWF. A "user image" does not mean "fan made image." It means an image that you uploaded for your own use that does not appear in articles. Once you've accumulated 50 edits to the Main Namespace, which is something you can verify with this, you can reupload the image you want to have on your user page. Cheers and welcome to Wookieepedia!

Talk pages
Thanks for contributing to Wookieepedia! Before posting talk page comments, please familiarize yourself with the disclaimer at the top of talk pages, {{Talkheader}}. Talk pages are for discussion relating to changes to the article, not for a discussion about the topic in question. Thank you. 1358 (Talk) 15:51, October 8, 2012 (UTC)
- You are indeed breaking the rules, as per {{Talkheader}}. And be warned of WP:NPA. Please adjust your attitude, or you'll find yourself with a lengthy time-out.—Cal Jedi
(Personal Comm Channel) 15:57, October 8, 2012 (UTC)
- Firstly, cut out the attitude. This is nothing personal and telling me to fuck off is a personal attack and definitely not civil. If you would like to remain part of this community, I'd recommend you to readjust your attitude or else you might find yourself blocked. On Wookieepedia, talk pages are not used for general discussion, as we are not a forum. The sole purpose of the talk pages is to discuss changes related to the article, not the subject of the article, which is clearly stated in the {{Talkheader}} notice visible on the majority of all talk pages. On an unrelated note, your signature is in direct violation of our signature policy, which states that your signature must include your username or a visual representation of it. Please readjust your signature to make sure it fits within the policy. Thank you for your cooperation. 1358 (Talk) 16:01, October 8, 2012 (UTC)
- Xd and I have both given you links describing the rules you're breaking. I don't have the time to sit here and walk you through it. Use the above links to see where you've messed up, and adjust accordingly.—Cal Jedi

- Well all links were supposed to be on his profile, but he seems to have removed the Welcoming/Policies links as well. So anyway @Oldrepublic, you can check them in my profile, here. Reflect on them. Winterz (talk) 16:21, October 8, 2012 (UTC)
