Imperial I-class Star Destroyer

i do not understand what was sub optimal about my edits yes grammar may be lacking all information is derived by STAR Wars Rebels from visual analysis and from their words/actions- —Unsigned comment by Hoboland (talk • contribs)

• I undid your edit because much of the information you added already existed on the page, or wasn't needed at all. Also, many of your reference tags were either vague, or non-existent for the info you added. -Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 14:28, March 4, 2017 (UTC)

Timeline

Hey, I noticed you've changed a few of my changes to the timeline... May I know Why? - —Unsigned comment by SimFã B. (talk • contribs)

• Hey, yeah sorry I should have put a reason why originally. The 'followed by'/'preceded by' are for the next in the series (such as next movie, next book in a particular series etc.), not the next medium in the timeline. - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 19:29, March 26, 2017 (UTC)
  • Oh, ok. But isn't there one for the entire timeline? I might be wrong, but I think I saw something like that the other day in Legends... SimFã B. (talk) 21:02, March 26, 2017 (UTC)
    • On individual articles, you can if we don't know the year it took place in. That can be more specific, which is why I didn't undo your Shattered Empire edit. - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 06:36, March 27, 2017 (UTC)

Re: vandalism

It's not vandalism. It's April Fools. Let's keep it on for today. --ID-21 Dolphin ^(Talk) 12:04, April 1, 2017 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for correcting my mistake at Inferno Squad. I was trying to fix it, but editing mobile is a pain in the arse. DarkKnight2149 19:09, April 15, 2017 (UTC)

• Not a problem my friend, I know the pain. - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 19:10, April 15, 2017 (UTC)

RE: Battlefront II pilot insignia

File:Inferno squad.svg. Brules Talk 20:46, April 15, 2017 (UTC)

• Thanks so much for that! - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 20:48, April 15, 2017 (UTC)

Question regarding reverts to "preceded/followed by" fields

I reverted the edits of 22RootLan because they filled said fields incorrectly. Do you think I did things right? --Rakhsh (talk) 13:03, April 22, 2017 (UTC)

• If I'm correct in assuming what they were adding wasn't the previous in the series, merely the last thing to happen in the timeline, then you did the right thing. The preceded by/followed by fields are for the series, not the timeline in general. - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 13:18, April 22, 2017 (UTC)

Battle of Atollon

[1] 88.120.49.44 01:08, April 30, 2017 (UTC)

• It works both ways. Yes he disappeared before Thrawn personally shot him with his blaster pistol, but before that he was shot down by the AT-ATs. I'll rework the article now. - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 06:45, April 30, 2017 (UTC)

Tagging pages for deletion

Hello there. Please note that before you tag a redirect page for deletion, like you did with point-defense laser cannon, you should use the Special:WhatLinksHere tool to make sure all the pages that use that redirect point to the correct destination page. I went ahead and corrected the pages for you this time. Imperators II^(Talk) 07:10, April 30, 2017 (UTC)

• Sorry about that, I'll be sure to next time. Thanks for sorting it out. - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 07:14, April 30, 2017 (UTC)

RE: TIE Interceptor image

The TIE fighters are gray as are the TIE Interceptors in the new canon, that is why i change the image... what is your reasoning for changing it? - —Unsigned comment by Exus Magnus (talk • contribs)

• As I already stated, the image is at a better angle and of a higher quality. Besides, the color of the image is gray. Also, remember to sign your comments like this: ~~~~. - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 08:17, April 30, 2017 (UTC)
  • Thanks Tommy, i was not being picky or anything, i was merely following the canon (although, Disney is always changing stuff). Please help me if you can with the image of the TIE Bomber. I took it from this page https://lmoorefx.artstation.com/ and the artist is Larry Moore, but don't know i to fill that damned template. This is so complicated to add something =(( - —Unsigned comment by Exus Magnus (talk • contribs)
    • Not a problem, that's what we're all here for. I'm happy to fill out the template, but is that image canon? It looks fanmade... Also, please sign off your comments, just writing your name isn't the same. - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 14:18, April 30, 2017 (UTC)
      • Ok so if it's from the Imperial Veterans Expansion Pack, it may be legends. I'd suggest contacting someone who edits lots of those articles and would have a clear answer, say, Weedle McHairybug.... - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 14:26, April 30, 2017 (UTC)

Re: Light cruiser in Rebels magazine

No problem. I'll check them right now and let you know! :-) --Lelal Mekha ^{(Audience Room)} 19:56, April 30, 2017 (UTC)

• So, here it goes. No Arquitens-class ship actually appears in "The Gangsters of Galzez". Ezra simply refers to a noodle incident that occurred right before the story began: "That Imperial cruiser sure hit us hard before we escaped." Hard to tell what variant appears in "A Day's Duty," because the art, no matter how gorgeous it is, doesn't seem overly accurate. The ships lack the enclosed triangular plating on the engines, but they also lack a bridge tower! (See this picture here.) It's probably just a case of artistic license, though. In "Escaping the Scrap Pile", we only see the belly of the ship. You might be able to identify the variant anyway, but I certainly can't (have a look here). --Lelal Mekha ^{(Audience Room)} 20:16, April 30, 2017 (UTC)
  • This is amazing, thanks so much! I think I'll remove the appearance from 'Gangsters', as there are other types of Imperial cruiser. I'd say the ones in 'Day' is a light cruiser, as there are guns on the side. As for 'Escape', I'd say a command cruiser, simply because of the lack of guns on the side. You're right though, really tricky to tell. Mind you, that art is fab... I really should try to find more issues of these online. Thanks again for such a detailed response Lelal, I really appreciate it! - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 20:29, April 30, 2017 (UTC)

RE Succession boxes for ships

Hey! Haha this is a better use of your time:P If you want to add it back then feel free too, I won't revert it but I don't know if anyone else will, so really its upto you whether you want to add it or not! No its okay you aren't bothering or anything don't worry --Lewisr (talk) 20:01, September 11, 2017 (UTC)

I need help

Hey tommy. I was just wondering if you can help me with my profile page (to design it and stuff) I can tell that you are a nice guy and you have experience with Wookieepedia so I was just wondering. Thanks, Jtmk1 (talk) 03:13, October 2, 2017 (UTC)

• Sure! What needs doing? - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 06:01, October 2, 2017 (UTC)
  • Well, a few things. First, how do you change the talk page so it has something like the picture below. Second, how do you change the color of your signature and add the photo and change the talk text. I also want to learn how to change up my profile page. But I will tell you about that later. (Oh, and if you are too busy, just let me know and I will try to figure it out myself.) Thanks for helping, --Jtmk1 (talk) 23:09, October 2, 2017 (UTC)
    • Okay, first things first. To get the talk page thing go to edit my talk page. Copy lines 8-10 (the one starting and ending with 'div'). Paste it at the top of your talk page. Changing the letters and numbers after the 'background-color' section will change the color. Use this to find other colors. - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 12:30, October 3, 2017 (UTC)
    • Next, for the signature. Go to your preference (top row, under your profile picture), and add this [[User:Jtmk1|<span style="color: #ff9a00;">'''Jtmk1'''</span>]] [[File:Imperial Emblem.svg|20px]] ^{([[User talk: Jtmk1|<span style="color:grey">'''Talk'''</span>]])} . Again, use the text after 'color' to change just that. Change what's after 'file' to change the file. It can be any image on the wiki, just make sure to keep the |20px at the end. - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 12:37, October 3, 2017 (UTC)
      • The signature thing is not working. Can you provide a little more detail. Never mind, I got it. Thanks. The other works though. --Jtmk1 (talk) 23:18, October 3, 2017 (UTC)
• Thank you so much for this. I will have more questions on Friday. (Mabye). --Jtmk1 (talk) 23:26, October 3, 2017 (UTC)
• Check it out! --Jtmk1 ^(Chat) 04:22, October 4, 2017 (UTC)
  • Nice! - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 18:16, October 4, 2017 (UTC)
    • Thanks! --Jtmk1 ^(Chat) 00:46, October 5, 2017 (UTC)
• We are now moving on to profile page. --Jtmk1 ^(Chat) 04:08, October 5, 2017 (UTC)
• Now I would like to figure out how to add those boxes like in the Picture. --Jtmk1 ^(Chat) 04:07, October 5, 2017 (UTC)
  • Those are userboxes. Add this: <div style="padding-left:120px;"> to the top of your userpage, and then add any userboxes you want from this page, making sure to keep the double curley brackets before and after each one. Then, add after them all. - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 17:41, October 6, 2017 (UTC)
    • I feel you should also have a look at this. - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 20:23, October 7, 2017 (UTC)
      • Are you saying I should contribute more?--Jtmk1 ^(Chat) 23:48, October 13, 2017 (UTC)
        • No, I just feel it's something to be aware of. - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 07:20, October 14, 2017 (UTC)
          • I just started studying Star Wars and I only know history. I just can't find anything to contribute to. I am still looking.--Jtmk1 ^(Chat) 02:20, October 15, 2017 (UTC)

I think

I was browsing your workbench and I belive Senior Lieutenant is with 2 red over 2 blue with one Code Cylinder on the left side. --Jtmk1 ^(Chat) 04:19, October 5, 2017 (UTC)

• And Junior Lieutenant is with 2 red over 2 blue with 1 Code Cylinder on each side and sometimes 2 blue squares next to each other with 1 code cylinder on each side. --Jtmk1 ^(Chat) 04:21, October 5, 2017 (UTC)
  • Isn't that what the page says? - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 20:06, October 5, 2017 (UTC)
    • Mabye --Jtmk1 ^(Chat) 20:19, October 7, 2017 (UTC)

Inferno Squad

Hey Tommy, just wanted to see if you could check this out and leave your thoughts? I definitely think its worth discussing. I tend to agree with Lelal that they aren't the same kind of special forces as Kolar Ludd but want to try and get more thoughts before anything is decided etc --Lewisr (talk) 12:48, October 20, 2017 (UTC)

• Yeah sure I'd be happy to! - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 12:49, October 20, 2017 (UTC)
  • Thanks! Saw you replied and completely forgot to check what you said, will do so now --Lewisr (talk) 22:10, October 20, 2017 (UTC)
    • No worries! - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 07:01, October 21, 2017 (UTC)

Re: Tarkin Images

I tried scanning them, but that created a lot of grain. There wasn't that much in that one image that I couldn't remove after changing it to black or white only. Honestly, the picture is really pixelated. Adventures in Wild Space: The Cold should have an eBook already or really soon. That should be a better source than me. Unless someone has a better scanner, we should wait for Adventures in Wild Space: The Rescue to come out in the US with an eBook.--ZapikCZ (talk) 15:02, October 27, 2017 (UTC)

Imperial remnants TC

Hey. Just so you know, the "Convert into a disambig" option on Forum:TC:Imperial remnants, which you voted for, has changed slightly so I wanted to give you a head's up. - Brandon Rhea^(talk) 18:41, October 30, 2017 (UTC)

• Thanks for letting me know! - Tommy-Macaroni ^(Talk) 18:44, October 30, 2017 (UTC)

Arquitens-class size

Howdy, I was checking some star wars rebels episodes, when something seemed off. The arquitens class command cruisers was way smaller in the show than they where according to the Wikipedia. So I did some research, and figured that they probably weren't 325 m. long, but rather 190. I got a own reference here: https://trytix.deviantart.com/art/Arquitens-class-cruiser-size-error-715204171 Did thee calculations and researching on my own. Didn't seem like the current length of 325 meters were supported with good enough information either. So, I hope this is okay. --Trytix (talk) 13:25, November 15, 2017 (UTC) Sincerely, Trytix.

• Hello! That's all nice but on wookieepedia we use actual sources, and not trying to work things out using image tricks. Problem is we don't know how far apart the ships are in your mock-up, so it may not be accurate. - Tommuskq ^{(TAKE A SEAT)} 19:46, November 15, 2017 (UTC)
  • oh, okay. Thanks non the less for answering as quickly as you did. And when it comes to sources, the current length of 325 m. Was linked to a reference of a millenium falcon thingy number: 60. But that page doesn't exist. So i'm wondering if there is something i haven't noticed about the sources linked to it's length? And yea, you are right, on the pictute with the imperial star deatroyer and those arquitens cruisers, they could be in different positions. But, in comparison to the cockpit of that interdictor, the arquitens ship is right besides it. And it looks like the ship is about the lenght of the interdictor cockpit's width. Now, i ain't saying "UPPDATE THE FREKIN PAGE ALLREADY!". No no, i am completly aware that my information won't be even close to enough to make for a good reference to it's length. But i do want to know if the information i provided at least is more accurate than the current (apearantly) unsupported length. Sorry for the long message. XP --Trytix (talk) 00:36, November 16, 2017 (UTC)
    • Please don't apologise, it's nice to have these conversations. Just because the referenced source doesn't have an article doesn't mean it doesn't exist or isn't accurate. User:LelalMekha originally added the ref, and he's very reliable so I doubt it's incorrect. However, the page was split so it may be that the ref is only for the ship from the Clone Wars. Feel free to ask him, but know that if it was incorrect, that would only result in the info getting removed, and not your logic getting added, as it isn't a valid source. - Tommuskq ^{(TAKE A SEAT)} 19:12, November 16, 2017 (UTC)

RE: Task Force (force?)

Hey! I know that its used as 'Task Force' a few times when referring to specific ones in the book but its 'task force' when referring to it generally. Though considering there never was a legends page actually made for task forces and instead it was just all on a disambiguation page I'm not so sure we need to make a canon one, but if you want to make one I guess the best thing would be to move Task force to Task force (disambiguation) and go from there as you suggested --Lewisr (talk) 11:49, November 26, 2017 (UTC)

• Fair enough then makes sense! No problem glad to help --Lewisr (talk) 12:00, November 26, 2017 (UTC)

Workbench 1

Hey, I saw and went over your Workbench about Imperial rank plaques, very useful! I'm glad someone is trying to figure all that mess out. It seems like the rank plaque of a Governor is the same as the one for a Grand Moff as seen by Arihnda Pryce as well.--Vitus Infinitus^Talk 15:32, December 21, 2017 (UTC)

• Hey, thanks for the positive words! I've chosen to ignore that, simply based off one of Pablo's deleted tweets. If you go over to here, you can see he essentially said Pryce's and Adelhard's plaques are wrong, as governors have positions lesser than those of moffs. — Tommuskq ^{(TAKE A SEAT)} 15:39, December 21, 2017 (UTC)
  • Interesting! Thanks for clearing that up. And yeah it seems like he deleted a ton of his tweets and many of our twitter sources without screenshots are pretty much wiped.--Vitus Infinitus^Talk 15:48, December 21, 2017 (UTC)
    • True, but at least we still have the quotes. — Tommuskq ^{(TAKE A SEAT)} 16:32, December 21, 2017 (UTC)

Destroyer down

Hi, I saw that you're adding appearances for the Destroyer down comic, do you have it or know how to read it? Thanks.—Unsigned comment by 189.222.77.151 (talk • contribs)

• No, I'm adding what can be ascertained from the cover and what another user has added. Perhaps they have it… — Tommuskq ^{(TAKE A SEAT)} 19:05, December 23, 2017 (UTC)

RE: Imperial Interdictor

Hello, thanks for picking up on that, I didn't mean to add the specific ship, the book says Imperial Interdictor so I guess when I added it I forgot to check --Lewisr (talk) 15:56, December 30, 2017 (UTC)

• Thanks! Should it be changed to Interdictor vessel or just taken out altogether? --Lewisr (talk) 16:02, December 30, 2017 (UTC)
