Welcome, Rifleman556x45!Hello, and welcome to Wookieepedia! I hope you like the place and choose to join our work. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
Wookieepedia aspires to be a reliable source for all Star Wars fans to read and draw information from, and as such, fan-created continuity and fan fiction are not allowed within our articles. All in-universe material must be attributable to a reliable, published source. Do not remove talk page and forum comments, including your own, as they are part of the public record. Remember that you should always sign your comments on talk and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~. For an optimal viewing experience, Wookieepedia recommends using the Monobook skin. For help changing your skin preference, see Help:Skin. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wookieepedian! If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the Senate Hall, visit our official IRC channel, or ask me on my talk page. May the Force be with you! —Omicron(Leave a message at the BEEP!) 15:11, October 27, 2014 (UTC) |
Canon articles
Thank you for your attempt to improve the wiki by adding new articles for canon content. However, your recent addition, Battle of Umbara has some major issues. First, the new page must be created at "/Canon", not "/canon". I have fixed this. Secondly, "legends=" is not necessary in Eras unless the name is different. Your article must include a list of Appearances, and you should link to subjects such as "Clone Wars" in the article with appropriate canon links. Please let me know if you have any questions. And please do not remove appropriate templates. ProfessorTofty (talk) 14:59, November 5, 2014 (UTC)
- Start by following those tips and you're off to a good start. Oh, and I know I said "don't remove the templates," but that doesn't apply once you've actually solved the issues that those templates are complaining about. Once you've fixed it up, feel free to clear them away. Also, when leaving a message on someone's talk page, make sure to leave a header (you can type one in the comments box on the right under the edit summary) and sign your post using four tildes.

Canon article creation/expansion
Canon articles are not to be made by copy and pasting content from Legends articles, but simply removing Legends details, links, and sources. They must be written from scratch. While some information may be shared between Canon and Legends, copying from Legends is not always accurate, is poor editing practice (plagiarism is never allowed), and is not to be done.
