- Two other things: (1) In my opinion, a little bit of fanart is OK, but screenshots from videogames, scans of official art, or similar, or usually preferred. (2) Please be sure to list your sources when creating new articles. — Silly Dan 14:59, 24 Nov 2005 (UTC)
- In my opinion, a little bit of fanart is OK, but screenshots from videogames, scans of official art, or similar, or usually preferred. - I agree, but some ships don't have any official resources, so all we can do is to put screens/3d graphics from games, or made by fans. Usually they are 100% correct to its descriptions in books, etc. Please be sure to list your sources when creating new articles - good note, I'll try do my best.
Fanon ships
I think that Saphire-class Heavy Frigate ship you added is fanon - from an RPG website. Please note that we only include official information in our wiki, the Saphire-class ship will be redirected to the List of fanon creations, unless you can prove it's an official ship. --Azizlight 15:32, 24 Nov 2005 (UTC)
- sorry, I can't prove it. Please, put it into fanon list
Kaloth Picture
I've added the proper pictures for the Harmzuay and Kaloth Battlecruiser. In the future, please do not add images unless you know that they are from canon sources, ie. only add them if you own the source yourself. The image you had before was complete fanon, and didn't even look close to what they are. -Jaymach Ral'Tir 15:57, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
- hmm... THAKNS :D my mistake, but all I could done was google.com - and I found only this picture. Thanks again SkywalkerPL 16:43, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
Images
Jaymach has alerted me about your continued uploading of images from Google and not providing sources or templates for them. Please step back for a second and reconsider shopping at Google for all your images, and then assuming that they are all of canonical status. If you continue to disregard users' complaints, you may end up banned. That is all. -- Riffsyphon1024 07:31, 14 Dec 2005 (UTC)
- Cannon of images I not assume - I try to search all sources I can reach - not only google.com - as U think and I really do my best to check if images are conforming with description. Also - This is only big encyclopedia with images, so I'm trying to expand it and make it more multimedia - not only pure description - images makes easier for people to imagine ships and others, so I think that if there are reachable images of ships they realy should be in SWW. and not providing sources - I do! I really do! check yourself, all pasted by me new images have got sources!!! I'm not trying to take away property and sign up myself or to steal somebodys images. And please don't threaten me.
- It was not a threat but mearly a warning. -- Riffsyphon1024 00:56, 15 Dec 2005 (UTC)
Formatting
I just forgot to thumb one or two articles, is all. I usually do thumb.JustinGann 10:22, 17 Jan 2006 (UTC)
- Thats great, but next time use preview button ;) SkywalkerPL 10:25, 17 Jan 2006 (UTC)
Yinchorri Fighter
where did you get the speed, size, and other info on Yinchorri fighters? JustinGann 20:49, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
- Simple: comparison with other space ships - thats about size, other info from ships description.
New infoboxes
- I think maybe you should hold off on replacing infoboxes for the time being. They're not 100% standardized yet. Once we close the Consensus Track discussion, then we'll need people to replace every ship infobox we have, but it would probably be a good idea to wait until then. —Darth Culator (talk) 14:51, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
- OK, thx for info, but some moust important ships already have new infoboxes... (!?) SkywalkerPL 09:06, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
Category links
Hi there. You have a few things on your userpage that I think are supposed to be links to categories but are instead placing your userpage into those categories. For example:
- [[Category:Eras|Eras category]] places your userpage into the Eras category. If you want to make a link to the Eras category, put a colon before the word "category," like so:
- [[:Category:Eras|Eras category]]
- That will give you a link, like this: Eras category
Thanks. -- Ozzel 02:14, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
Images
Hi. I was looking at your user page and I saw that you had a huge list of images. Did you know that you can link to them directly without adding the image to your page? For instance:
[[:File:Mandalorianbattleship2.jpg]]
Produces this:
File:Mandalorianbattleship2.jpg. Cheers, Sentry [Talk] 09:51, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
- wow... man, huge thanks :D SkywalkerPL 09:52, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

My edit to your userpage
I replaced your language infobox with {{lang}}, {{userboxtop}}, and {{userboxbottom}}, as the Wikipedia-style language templates are out-of-date and are being removed. Cheers, —Silly Dan (talk) 20:28, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
- Huge thanks :D SkywalkerPL 12:12, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
Carosite
Hey SkywalkerPL. I was just cleaning out the requested articles page when I saw this:
Could anyone expand article about Carosites ??? SkywalkerPL 16:24, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
I don't know if you are still interested, but earlier this year I actually did expand their article! It's now an FA and you can read it here if you'd like. --Eyrezer 23:56, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
- hehehe, thanks dude :D SkywalkerPL 10:22, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
CC-9600 frigate
I'd like to ask your source for the armament of the craft, specifically how you got the types of each kind of weapon. I know they don't go into this level of detail in Star Wars: Rebellion, so if you have another, unlisted source, please list it so that it can be confirmed. Keep in mind that Warlords is not canon.
