Signing

Hello, please don't forget to sign your name on talk pages using four tildes: ~. Thanks!--Vitus Infinitus^Talk 17:37, January 9, 2018 (UTC)

Summary link

Please don't link those free/illegal comic reading websites on edit summaries. Thanks--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 09:17, January 31, 2018 (UTC)

First Order military

The reason I removed TIE pilot corps from the infobox is because its unnecessary to list everything when its part of the navy which is already listed on there, otherwise the infobox gets unnecessarily long if we listed every single thing --Lewisr (talk) 18:29, February 12, 2018 (UTC)

Adelhard

Hello, please stop adding that information in on Adelhard's article. That is pure speculation and it's not relevant to the article. Please be aware of the three-revert rule, thanks!--Vitus Infinitus^Talk 18:38, February 20, 2018 (UTC)

External Links

Hi RC-0407. I've removed the Battlefront II wiki external link you added to Reconfigurable blaster‎‎ since we don't generally link to other wikis, only unique sources of information about the article's subject. Ayrehead02 (talk) 11:09, March 3, 2018 (UTC)

Phasma

Hello I reverted your edit on Phasma's page as it can't really be sourced to episode VII. Also please be careful with your grammar etc as some of it didn't really make sense. Also what do you mean by she fired her blaster 'the proper way'? That sort of stuff isn't really helpful to readers --Lewisr (talk) 17:34, March 8, 2018 (UTC)

First Order pilots

Good morning, RC-0407. The List of First Order pilots was deleted because we don't keep lists like that. Hope this helps, Supreme Emperor (talk) 16:37, March 10, 2018 (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. Additionally, we do not keep huge lists in articles, we have categories for things like that. Please do not re-add them. Supreme Emperor (talk) 16:52, March 10, 2018 (UTC)

Uploading files

While all good-faith contributions to Wookieepedia are appreciated, we ask that you please refer to Wookieepedia:Images, which can be found under the "other policies and guidelines" link in your welcome message, and familiarize yourself with the sourcing and licensing requirements before uploading any more images. The only uploading method supported by Wookieepedia, Special:Upload, will prompt you to enter this information. Wikia's non-standard upload forms are not supported under Wookieepedia policy, and ignorance of the uploading rules is not an acceptable excuse. Continued violation of the image policy or falsification of any information in an upload description are considered vandalism and will likely result in a block. Thank you. 1358 ^(Talk) 16:09, March 13, 2018 (UTC)

Referencing

Please fix your referencing to do it like I've been fixing your edits. Or at least take a look at [[Wookieepedia:Sourcing|this link to learn how to do so, thanks --Lewisr (talk) 16:58, March 15, 2018 (UTC)

Layout and references

Hey, thanks for contributing! I noticed there were some errors with some of your edits, particularly in references and some layout issues. You can find information here: Wookieepedia:Layout Guide and Wookieepedia:Sourcing. For the layout, there shouldn't be any spaces between == headers, or * bullets, and in regards to references make sure the first reference of a source goes like <ref name="Name">Source</ref> and continued references of the same source are like <ref name="Name" />. When creating articles make sure you add a Notes and references section at the bottom with {{Reflist}} to have the reference list, otherwise an error will pop up at the bottom. Thanks and I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions--Vitus Infinitus^Talk 16:29, March 18, 2018 (UTC)

Editing

Hello, when you edit, please make sure you reference and source the information in the same edit, not go back and finish it later. Also don't leave spaces == in the headers or * bullets and the word, thanks!--Vitus Infinitus^Talk 13:57, March 20, 2018 (UTC)

Reply

Hello, thanks for the message, no problem and I'm always happy to help out when I can so always feel free to ask if you need any. Its okay on grammar, I guess English isn't your first language so of course not everything will be perfect. Glad to hear and see that you have been able to learn to do the references, thanks for all your edits! Apologies if I've ever come across as harsh or anything, that wasn't my intention. May the Force be with you too, also please remember to sign your posts using the signature button --Lewisr (talk) 19:16, March 28, 2018 (UTC)

• I am still leaning!!!!!!! And don't worry. You haven't been more then a meaningful gentleman. So good luck and the best wishes from you easten neighbor in Scandinavia. --RC-0407 (talk) 21:44, March 28, 2018

RE: Help me obi-wan kenobi. you're my only hope

Hello! I managed to fix it for you, just one of the references was wrong but its all good now! By the way the Bad Batch stuff doesn't count as legends as its canon only --Lewisr (talk) 20:54, March 29, 2018 (UTC)

• Thanks --RC-0407 (talk) 10:49, March 29, 2018

Editing

Hey, so I previously removed your edit because it did not follow the MOS and because it did not have references or sources. Please, when you edit, make sure to add references in the same edit as when you add information, otherwise it may be removed. If you need to make several edits and they are not complete, don't hesitate to use the {{Inuse}} or {{WIP}} templates while you work, that way people know that your work is not complete. There were also some repetitive unit types that were listed below and I removed those as well. If you have any questions let me know, thanks--Vitus Infinitus^Talk 17:52, April 3, 2018 (UTC)

Re:Could you help me?

Sorry I did see your message and when I went to check the link it was gone, then I forgot to reply to your message. I was away when you first messaged so couldn't help you out, apologies --Lewisr (talk) 12:17, May 28, 2018 (UTC)

• No problem amigo. I know for a fact that you help a lot of people. And that's the only thing that counts. Besides, I nominate it for delesion(delete). As long as this wiki looks good, then I'm happy. And have a nice day, young English-man. RC-0407 (talk)
  • Thank you, still feel free to ask if you ever need help and if I'm around I will do what I can to help! Thank you, hope you have a nice day too --Lewisr (talk) 15:53, May 28, 2018 (UTC)

Negastrike Platoon edits

While I appreciate your trying to add in more details to various articles, Negastrike Platoon is not an Imperial Army platoon, it's a Stormtrooper Corps platoon. The source they originated from, Star Wars: Imperial Handbook: A Commander's Guide, while released after the Legends/Canon split, was designated Legends. In the Legends continuity, the Stormtrooper Corps were a wholly separate branch in the Imperial Military from both the Imperial Army and the Imperial Navy (think along the lines of the Marine Corps). Them being an elite unit of the Imperial Army was the invention of the Disney Canon after the split (maybe a slight bit before due to Rebels promotional material pointing to that direction). If you're going to add categories to that article, it's better if you created a new category called Stormtrooper Corps platoons rather than adding it to Imperial Army platoons, as it's not that under Legends, being separate from the Imperial Army. Weedle McHairybug (talk) 15:47, June 3, 2018 (UTC)

• Really?, weird!, but thanks. I didn't know that. One more thing. I have to admit that I didn't realized that you counter-edited the first or second time. Goodbye and have nice day. RC-0407 (talk)

Tommy Macaroni 16:56, June 12, 2018 (UTC)

• I shall take a look ad it. RC-0407 (talk)
  • Thank you, although "taking at look at it" should really happen before you make your edits, so people like me and Lewis don't have to clear up after you. Tommy Macaroni 17:07, June 12, 2018 (UTC)

Imperial small arms page

We don't need to have a page for Imperial weapons, its effectively a list and we don't have lists for those kind of things. Its better to add on the individual weapon page if its used by the Empire --Lewisr (talk) 15:37, June 20, 2018 (UTC)

• The article is also primarily a chart, which we don't do here, and making a category page is not really ideal given that the weapons are not exclusive to the Empire and eventually we'll end up with a huge list of categories under each weapon.--Vitus Infinitus^Talk 16:04, June 20, 2018 (UTC)
  • The main purpose of that article is to talk about an imperial topic. And besides we can't have all the other articles full of an endless nummer of blaster models. Their serv no purpose on the imperial army page. It's better to have an article about imperial blasters, then simply added it everywhere. RC-0407
    • Hi RC-0407. I've deleted the Imperial small arms article since it was a list article and as a community we've decided in the past not to include this type of article on the wiki. You're welcome to add the information in prose to other relevant articles like the Imperial Army or the individual troop types. If you disagree with this decision then feel free to start a wider discussion about the inclusion of lists on the Senate Hall. Ayrehead02 (talk) 17:46, June 20, 2018 (UTC)

Removing content

Please do not remove content and replace it with a list. Wookieepedia discourages the use of lists, and prose should be used wherever possible. - Sir Cavalier of One^{(Squadron channel)} 17:34, June 20, 2018 (UTC)

AT-series

Hello RC. I was wondering what source uses the term "AT-series", because me and several other users can't find any mention of it. If it turns out the name is made up, the article will have to be deleted due to our notability policy, because it has a name in Legends. Thank you. Tommy Macaroni 16:43, June 23, 2018 (UTC)

• I dont remember. But I do know that deleting an whole page is a little over the top. Change the name, if you can't find the source. Most people add the word unidentified if they can't find the name.RC-0407 This was written at 09:51 in the morning. Date:24/6 Year:2018
  • I suggest looking at this. It clearly says "subjects that both appeared within new canon material and received names and backstories within material that falls under the Legends brand shall not receive new canon articles until they receive names in material that is considered canon." The article can't exist under canon until it has a confirmed name, as it has a name in Legends. If you did make up the name, don't worry, it was just a mistake, but I'd rather you said. Tommy Macaroni 08:05, June 24, 2018 (UTC)
    • Tommy is correct, for the same reason I just explained to you with regards to the armored division thing. If there isn't a source for the name "AT-series" in canon, that article will be deleted in accordance with our policy -- it's not over the top, because you shouldn't have created it in the first place. If you have a source for that term, now is the time to share it. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 21:40, July 27, 2018 (UTC)

Solo: Armored Divisions

Can you please tell us where in the Solo guide this information can be found? Thank you. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 19:05, July 27, 2018 (UTC)

• Allow me to add that the existence of your recent contributions involving both these Armored Divisions and the AT-series are contingent on you answering this question. If you don't respond, the information will be removed and you may face further sanctions in accordance with our Attribution policy. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 19:24, July 27, 2018 (UTC)
  • You want some kind of responds. But I have no idea what that should be. Is it a page number or perhaps me to apologize? RC-0407 (talk)
    • Tell us where this information that you added to the Imperial Army article can be found in that Solo book so that we may verify its authenticity. If you can't show us, we will take that to mean it's inauthentic. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 19:51, July 27, 2018 (UTC)
      • Ohhhh. Now I get it. Sir, we are dealing with visual evidence. On both Mimban and Atollon, we know of one type of military unit. (An armored division.) On both planets, we see two-legged self-propped gun platforms, along with infantry. This confirms that multiple imperial armored divisions have these specific sub-units. What the book confirms, is that it's (an armored division) we see on Mimban. (Specifically Nr. 224.) Am I annoying?RC-0407 (talk)
        • We place far less emphasis on visual evidence than we do on confirmed nomenclature. In other words, unless there's a formal name for the Imperial Army's armored division, creating an article for that subject is questionable. The Legends counterpart appears to be Assault Armor Division, but since we apparently don't have a named canon counterpart yet, the Notability policy prohibits creating an unidentified article for the canon Imperial armored division. You should instead add this information to the Division article, as multiple other people whom I've consulted on this matter express doubt as to whether "armored division" needs to be a separate article at this time. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 21:19, July 27, 2018 (UTC)
          • That sounds good to me. But it is a little irritating that I have to recreate this information. Whatever, have a nice day. And the "force" thing. RC-0407 (talk)

RE:Could you give reasoning for counter-editing

We refrain from making such lists because that's what the use of categories are for. You can see here when an administrator explained it to another user. Hope this answers your question.--Vitus Infinitus^Talk 19:00, August 15, 2018 (UTC)

• I'd recommend speaking to an admin then to clear it up then to make sure.--Vitus Infinitus^Talk 20:12, August 15, 2018 (UTC)

Merging some articles

Hello! Yes I agree that both of those should be merged together --Lewisr (talk) 17:12, September 4, 2018 (UTC)

• To be honest you wouldn't need to merge 543rd Denbari Attack Company and 543th Denbari Attack Company as they essentially say the same thing already, you'd be best to just tag the wrong one for deletion. And for the other one you would simply need to just take the information off of one page and add it onto the other (making sure you don't copy over duplicate information), does that make sense? If not feel free to say --Lewisr (talk) 19:54, September 4, 2018 (UTC)

AT-AT Platoon

Hi RC-0407! Just to let you know that I have redirected your new page "AT-AT Platoon" to Armor platoon. Both the Imperial Sourcebook and Star Wars: Imperial Handbook: A Commander's Guide make it clear that this is the proper name for a formation of AT-ATs. - Sir Cavalier of One^{(Squadron channel)} 20:10, September 19, 2018 (UTC)

Categories

Hello, one of those is the individual named AT-ATs we see and the other is for the different variants of AT-AT so merging the categories wouldn't be really the best thing to do, hope this helps --Lewisr (talk) 13:54, January 15, 2019 (UTC)

Image

You uploaded an image called File:Arctic AT-DT.png‎, but you added it to the AT-ST and AT-MP. Which one is it? Is the file name wrong? Is there an AT-DT?--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 20:26, July 18, 2019 (UTC)

Massacre on Yellowblade's Landing

Hey! Thanks for letting me know, I will take a look at it in a little while but thanks for bringing it to attention --Lewisr (talk) 18:50, August 31, 2020 (UTC)

User:73.40.63.96

Hello! Do you know User:73.40.63.96? Just curious after your edit on my talk page --Lewisr (talk) 17:14, September 9, 2020 (UTC)

Broken refs

Just as an FYI, you have a broken ref on your user page that is showing up in an error category. If you do a search for "Cite error" on the page, you should find it. -- Sulfur (talk) 13:33, 13 December 2020 (UTC)

Categories

Please list categories in alphabetical order. UberSoldat93 (talk) 16:23, 25 May 2021 (UTC)

RE:A matter of fleets

Hey, there! I agree that Category:Imperial Sector Fleets should be listed under Category:Imperial Navy fleets, but not Category:Imperial Navy organizational fleets since that is different. The organizational fleets category is for types of formations, not actual units themselves. That's why I've added it to Category:Imperial Navy and Category:Organizational military units, similar to how the Category:Imperial Army categories are organized. I'll go ahead and add Sector Fleets if they haven't been added already, thanks! --Vitus Infinitus^Talk 17:21, 26 May 2021 (UTC)

Cold-Weather AT-ST Mark III

Hey, RC-0407, I was wondering where you found the Cold Weather AT-MP Mark III in Star Wars: Commander? I can't find any trace of it in the game, thank you. --Vitus Infinitus^Talk 19:54, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

• I see thank you so much! It looks like that is actually the Cold Weather AT-MP Mark III and not the Cold-weather AT-ST Mark III. --Vitus Infinitus^Talk 20:56, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
• I can't believe I asked for the wrong thing! I meant the Cold-weather AT-ST Mark III, not the Cold Weather AT-MP Mark III --Vitus Infinitus^Talk 20:56, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
  • I see, thank you so much I would really appreciate it! If we can't find anything further, then I'll probably make a TC --Vitus Infinitus^Talk 22:26, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
    • I see, looks like rookie me was the culprit! I might have made that mistake by confusing the two vehicles, just how I did earlier. Thanks for your help, RC! I'll go ahead and TC it. --Vitus Infinitus^Talk 22:38, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

Re:Infobox

Hello there! This is how. You may notice this particular warning on quite a few pages right now (since the community recently voted on adopting these particular template parameters.) On Wookieepedia's Discord server I've requested that a bot operator fix all of those automatically, but it might take a bit of time for that to happen. Hope that helps, Imperators II^(Talk) 20:45, 15 September 2023 (UTC)

RE:Battle of Corellia

Ha, yes, the edit in question is here, and I see what the issue is. So, when I patrol articles, I makes sure to look for missing references at the end of paragraphs, and in my haste I missed that you did in fact provided a reference "before continuning rimward.<ref name="TEA">''[[The Essential Atlas]]''</ref>", which I missed because you left the paragraph broken in two. But that edit was problematic in other ways that I'm now noticing too: (1) the reference you provided was already defined earlier in the article, you should have simply used "<ref name="TEA" />" and (2) that whole paragraph was unsourced, so did you really intended for the full sentence: "It is not clear how effective the Imperial military presence at Corellia was after Tralus, but, the New Republic was slow to take control due to various other threats including the Reborn Emperor. His forces engaged New Republic forces in the Battle of Corellia before continuning rimward." to be sourced to the TEA? If it was not the case, note that it's fine to remove content from an article if it's not sourced properly (we mostly keep that around because that from "Old Wook" as we call it, and still might be true but is waiting for someone, like you to confirm with a source), just be sure that in a paragraph, a reference is defined for entirety of the paragraph before it or until it reach another reference, which by the way, lead me to (3) this paragraph already referenced the TEA earlier, and that should have been removed, as it would have been redundant with the new ref you added to the TEA further in the paragraph.

Dreadnaught/Dreadnought

Hey there, I've reverted your changes regarding the Dreadnaught/Dreadnought categories, because yeah, as annoying as it is that the spellings are different in Legends/Canon, we treat them as distinct categories since they have different names. Cade Calrayn 17:15, 4 February 2025 (UTC)
