Re: VacationI have not forgotten about this one, Tope. Rest assured, my vacation does not mean that I'll simply let the nomination sit idle on the GAN page. I'll be monitoring it and my FA nominations, as well; I just won't be able to contribute much beyond that. Still, thanks for the heads-up :) QuiGonJinn 20px(Talk) 19:33, November 19, 2010 (UTC) DateThe Xim map on page 117 has a notation in the bottom right stating "25,102 to 25,096 BBY - War with the Hutts". The old 21,105 date seems to have been an approximation with the Battle of Ko Vari, which in all articles is an unsourced date, and most references are even labeled "circa". The First Battle of Vontor is confirmed on the next page as being in 25,100, which leaves nothing concrete for 25,105, and does give a reference for 25,102 for the start of the war. The 25,096 date is a little nutty considering Xim's been a prisoner for four years at that point. But I'm not messing with that, yet.

MorseeriansThe UAA says as follows: "Despite having lived on the fringes of galactic civilization for nearly twelve thousand years..." I added the information to 12,000 BBY in the hopes of getting it supplemented by whatever source qualifies the date to be on the Morseerian Featured Article, my library is pretty sparse on a lot of the sources listed there. If it needs further immediate support, I'll get with SavageBob to find out what his source is for the date. DD97Which bear is best? 19:26, November 24, 2010 (UTC)

Darth Morrt 22:43, November 24, 2010 (UTC) Wookieepedia Manual of Style problemHello, while reading the Manual of Style today, I noticed a grammatical error. However, when I tried to fix it, I found out that I do not have permission to edit that page. Could you correct the error? Here is the error: "===Human and other sentient species=== In all sections of in-universe articles, the words "Human" and "Near-Human" should be capitalized, just as the name of any other sentient species (Twi'lek, Rodian, Wookiee) in the Star Wars universe would be. The word "humanoid," however, should not be capitalized.
Please note that semi-sentient or nonsentient creature names must not be in capitals unless dictated otherwise by canon. Hence, writing "Rancor" instead of "rancor" is agrammatical. As much as we don't capitalize "Dog" or "Cat" in real-life, we shouldn't capitalize fictional creature names." In the second sentence, instead of reading "humanoid,", it should say "humanoid",. Also, this may seem nitpicky, but...when I read the last sentence, it counfused me. I thought that there was a grammatical problem regarding possesives. Upon reading it again, I guess that it techincally works, but to avoid further confusion, could you rewrite the sentence as "As much as we don't capitalize "Dog" or "Cat" in real-life, we shouldn't capitalize the names of fictional creatures."? Thanks,WIERDGREENMAN 18:47, November 25, 2010 (UTC)
Re: Galaxy 11Yeah, you're right, it's actually a poster from Galaxy 9. Sorry about that. Here's what it says about the Executor: "Intimidation is a powerful weapon, and few vessels are more intimidating than a Super Star Destroyer. At 8,000 meters—five times the length of a standard Star Destroyer—possessing thousands of weapons and carrying legions of starfighters and stormtroopers, they are the most fearsome components in the Imperial armada, short of the Death Stars. Built and presented to Darth Vader following the Battle of Yavin, expressly for hunting Rebels, the Executor is featured prominently in Shadows. Ironically, it figures in Luke's escape, and leads to Xizor's defeat. Later, the vessel is destroyed during the Battle of Endor."

New articleHi Toprawa! In your opinion, does Unidentified stormtrooper squad (Tantive IV) deserve its own article? My only sources of these trooper being a squad are the script of ANH, which isn't really canon, and the ANH novel, which is obscure. Darth Morrt 03:21, December 1, 2010 (UTC)

Re:update tagSorry, I actually wasn't aware that the article had to be reevaluated by the Inqs first, but thanks for telling me that. And as for images and quotes, there are places where I found a space for quotes but also some where I did not, and therefore will not place any. For the images, there are a few places where there are images of other related oeple that can be replaced with quality images of Kota, the character in question. Then I will wait until the tag is removed and most likely discuss changes to the article with him, since he desrves a lot of credit for writing this article. Cheers.--ID-21 Dolphin 20px(Talk) 03:22, December 5, 2010 (UTC) KixHello sir, I don't know if you realize this, but I have been changing his first quotation for a long while.

You are giving Wookieepedia a bad reputation in the online communityDear Toprawa and Raltiir, I would like to shed some light on the fact that you are one of the most disrespectful and arrogant people on Wikia. It all started about a year and a half ago you unfairly blocked me for something I didn't do, perhaps you remember. But anyways since my year long block expired in August, you have completely turned me away from contributing anything to Wookieepedia. You are an administrator, you are supposed to represent the site well, but you are doing exactly the opposite. You are a douchebag to so many new registered users on this site, it is unbelievable. When I first joined Wookieepedia 3 years ago, this one outstanding administrator Greyman showed me around. Sure, he blocked me once or twice but he taught me the rules of the site. You are the exact opposite. According to your user page, you "have no personal interest in becoming an Admin; it is simply not why I'm here." You also said " You won't ever find me creating a list of my greatest contributions, articles created, or anything like that." Have you seen your mile long list of FA and GA contributions on YOUR USER PAGE? You, sir, are a dick who has no business being an administrator on this wiki, and I really hope another administrator sees how badly you represent the wiki. You do not help out others, you simply block them. I know you have made some great contributions to articles on the site (as shown by your narcissistic user page), but you have no business being an administrator for many reasons. You are on a power trip and I hope that someone ends it. Cheers, Skypopper(Talk) 21:12, December 12, 2010 (UTC) ESB adaptations for 4-LOM and ZuckussFigure I might as well tackle these while I can.

T-6 shuttleHey Tope, on the T-6 shuttle article, I think the LEGO thing might be worth mentioning, since action figures and other collectible items are commonly mentioned in the BTS sections of good and featured articles (see the Darth Caedus BTS). LEGO isn't always cited, but it's an interesting fact to be mentioned, IMO. But if you don't like it, I don't mind.--ID-21 Dolphin 20px(Talk) 00:06, January 10, 2011 (UTC)

Delrakkin/Reference?Hi Toprawa. I just wanted to say my bad about that edit I made on Delrakkin, when I forgot to close out the end of the reference with ]]. I had a question about it though, as well as a question about the bullets. When you reverted the reference edit back, it looks different than the ones I have been adding. I have been going through The Essential Atlas Online Companion and just comparing pages to make sure info is up to date. If you take a look at Abar system, that is what I have been making my refs look like, hundreds of pages like that.
Rail class ARCSorry if I'm a little blunt here, but didn't you get my note?! there is not enough info on the Rail class ARC for the article to be wookieefied further! I can't add a complete infobox because there's virtually no info on them. There's no source, there's no external links for it, and I can't find any "add category" thing on the page. I'm sorry, but the articles at it's best unless somebody else who knows more about improving a page helps.

RequestHey, Tope. While working on Darth Phobos, I've tried to create the article Cult of Darth Phobos, but you seem to have protected it from recreation. However, according to Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, there was such a cult. It was never identified as the "Cult of Darth Phobos" per se, but it was devoted to her, so I thought I'd use this name as a conjectural title. That being said, could you unprotect the page? Thanks.

I thought that it should be at least mentioned, so I wrote the passage that i copied on below, but then i realized i couldn't edit it. I was wondering whether you thought that it would be a valid addition to the Ackbar page. The new Family Guy Star Wars special was also titled Family Guy: It's A Trap! in honor of Ackbar's famous line. There are two scenes that feature Ackbar prominently in the special. The first is when Mon Mothma is wrapping up her part of the briefing aboard Home One prior to the attack on the Second Death Star. As she turns the briefing over to Ackbar, he appears suddenly shouting "It's a trap! No, just kidding." The second scene was actually where it was in the movie, where he shouts "It's a trap! It's a trap!" Then the camera pans out, and we see a cat swatting at Ackbar (who is actually a fish in a fishbowl mounted on top of Ackbar's real body. He then says "Also, who's cat?" —Unsigned comment by Cuyvaldar123946 (talk • contribs) 590 BBYHi, Toprawa! Shouldn't this year have the conjecture header, since "590 BBY" does not appers in any of the sources? I have added the JvS page numbers. Page xix and 19 are two different pages in this book. The Dark Empire comic doesn't have printed page numbers and the actual number is differs in every edition. That's why I didn't add eny number. The endnotes don't have page numbers either. Tha fact files use BAA1-2 as page numbers. Darth Morrt 01:07, January 25, 2011 (UTC)
HijaI recently realized that the script appears in more sources, such as the different editions of The Art of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, the online Visual Guides, an ongoing feature of the Insider, and presumably some more.

QuestionTope what's goin on, I recently objected to the inclusion of a "Relatioships" section on Chantique, because I've always been under the impression that such sections were reserved for the romantic endeavors of the character in question.

IMO, we had enough information (species, profession, participation in the ambush) about the members of Bossk's band: Unidentified Twi'lek scoundrel 1, Unidentified Twi'lek scoundrel 2, [[Unidentified Quarren assassin]], [[Unidentified Duros mercenary]]. I am not sure about Lando's band. The Twi'lek is OK and done, but all the information about the four Bespin guards are the same. Also, there are four other Bespin guards, whose story is a bit different from the others, but the same for themselves. If I would cover the Sore Loser's Revenge completely, may I make these 8 Bespin guard articles too, or they are too unnotable?

It's not a big issue, but I don't get the point of rounding when we know the exact number—I only switched it because it makes the reader do a double-take (me at least), when this "Tanner and twenty-eight others" is only a few sentences earlier. Plus, if readers don't see that we've rounded up, they may think that one of the two sentences is in error. Whaddya think? Darth Trayus(Trayus Academy) 21:50, February 10, 2011 (UTC)
Infobox refs for single-source articlesHey, Tope. I've been operating under the assumption that all infobox items need a source, but on the CAN page, this has been questioned for single-source articles, where it can be assumed that the infobox items come from the only appearance/source listed. Is there any policy on this? It's quite possible I've been over-sourcing in cases like this, and I figured you'd be the guy to ask about this. FWIW, it seems that Wookieepedia:Sourcing does not explicitly require infobox sourcing, but that Forum:Infobox sourcing indicated a strong community consensus toward sourcing. Has there ever been a CT on this? How should these single-source articles be handled? ~ SavageBob 03:33, February 11, 2011 (UTC)
Dear Toprawa and Ralltiir... ;)Dear Toprawa and Ralltiir, I guess you are an admin who moderates and controls a portion of what happens on Starwars.wikia.com. I do apologize for what I said to JangFett, but I did not address him regarding the matter about the main picture of CIS navy. I was addressing JMAS and wanted to resolve the issue. I would like to point out that I only used more harsh tone towards those who right away jump and deny or dismiss any minor suggestion. I do not harsh words towards any other, except CC-7567 who I a little confronted before. For which I apologize to you, Mr. Admin. Further more: "I do not know what is wrong with you, Fett...but the picture feels like if we put the burning "Resolute" and other ships from "Storm over Ryloth" or "Nightsisters" as the main image of the Republic Navy. It just feels wrong, doesn't it. Apperantly you do not like the seps that much, Jango. But I thought all articles should be treated equally good. The same would be if you put an epic and clear image of a character and then for another one you put up an image which does not represent him well at all like facing down or making a stupid face. I doubt you would leave a character with a messed up main picture, the same is here. The image works for the Battle of Coruscant perfectly, yes, but you are wrong if the destruction shown on it works to present the CIS navy article in front of a random reader." I assume the moment that makes it in the category of incivility is: I do not know what is wrong with you, Fett... I am sorry for that, but it annoyed me that he totally dismissed any comment regarding the image and something that was not at all address at him. In other words, he entered a discussion that did not require his critisism. The matter was entirely pointed to the person who uploaded both pictures - in other words JMAS, who uploads the best images here and that is why I turned to him for help and just raised a minor suggestion. I did not attempt to delete or harm any of JangFett's articles. Just wanted help with improving an article. And I also did not attack him, I gave staight away an example of the injustice regarding the article. That is why I said: "But I thought all articles should be treated equally good." Cause everyone would like to see a very good image of the Republic Navy, but he totally ignored any saying from me that the article of the CIS navy deserves an equally good and cool image and there are many. Not the riot that is the image, showing an exploding Recusant-class light destroyer, a Drop Ship smudged in the lower end of the screen, Obi-Wan's figther and a Rep. Cruiser. Am I wrong or out of place to say that the image is not good for the main pic of the Separatist armada. Maybe for the battle of Coruscant, yes. It would be perfect for that article. Second, I turned to JMAS, as he: 1. Uploads highest resolution images from the show. 2. I guess you or other admin have removed my right to add pictures, I know I made mistakes about the uploads in the past. Apologies deeply for those. These are the two main reasons, I did not think that that would be a problem. I never turn to any admins when somebody critised me about an edit or attacked me, cause there usually is not point of taking it personally. I just wanted to point to JangFett that he is not right in his claims that the page does not need improving. At least on the visual part, editorials of the text I do not want to make to cause somebody to come and revert it. Third, correct me if I am wrong, but doesn't correction or editing happen from a neutral point of view. This occured, not only the Navy article... when several battle results were reverted back, because the Republic does not say it loses in the show in any article. I tried to write that during First Battle of Felucia, the Jedi did RETREAT and I think again JangFett reverted the file to site with the Republic point of view and the more incorrect term: Escape. My question is why when the Republic wins or loses, it only pontificates that it wins and shows other kind of result. Never I have seen a result in the battles of the show or EU, a major CIS victory...always something else that does not fully show the result as whole. When the CIS is looses, it is majorly pointed out and written down. Republic victory. Aren't these editings from a Republic point of view as they show the Republic in a good light and the CIS in demeaning manner, just my assumption. Is that not wrong? PLEASE, except my deep apologise for making you read this and deal with an issue because of me. I see that you have a lot on your plate as an admin. I do not cause any trouble, I only want to at least have the right edit something and it usually has info good for an article, but it is always dismiss by others in high places. After which the same thing I wrote is written by the guys who removed it, in the first place. I ONLY want to have the choice to edit minor Clone Wars articles...I will not get in the way of the major articles like the ones about Rex or Ahsoka or Anakin.

I plan on creating the other articles for Shon-Ju's students; they are all currently redlinked as "UnID Species force user". Should I go with that or change them to UnID Species (Force student)?

Sorry to bother you, but I understand that a certain Daigear has been blocked for having more than one account. We happen to share a room in rez and therefore share an IP I can tell you that he did not have more than one account. I did. I said on my talk page that I don't know how to delete previous accounts (and I was courteous enough to wait until the block on my former profile was over before I made another account). If you're going to block anyone it should be me. Darth Crate 03:28, February 12, 2011 (UTC) I forgot to mention, can a block be undone? I don't mean to be a bother, but the whole thing seems unfair. Darth Crate 03:30, February 12, 2011 (UTC) Sorry for leaving a third message, but I think I know what may have happened. I requested a former profile blocked, but I was referring to GreenTis4poofs; instead, someone else who has a profile on the same IP address was blocked. That's Daigear. I don't blame for anything wrong. We (Darth Crate and Daigear) are both just unfamiliar with policies regarding accounts. Sorry again. Darth Crate 03:38, February 12, 2011 (UTC)
I fear that it is you who misunderstands. Only one of us has had multiple accounts. What do you mean by mischievous? Our dear Daigear, I am aware, has corrected numerous grammatical and spelling errors on various pages. I have asked plenty of fair questions on Knowledge Bank, while my suggestions on Senate Hall to improve the quality of the site seem to be speedily deleted. I have decided, though, that I have had enough. By now most of the users are in the administration because chaps like you block new users. I was attempting earlier to be polite, but because you failed to even reply in a professional manner, spouting rude and insulting remarks as you tend to do to many users, I shall tell you what I think. You are an administrator of what has become an increasingly private wiki, where editing is restricted to long-time users and administrators. While I understand that many users will abuse priveleges, not everyone wants to destroy your precious Wookieepedia. Indeed, I think that this could be a really splendid community wiki. Star Wars is great and it's nice to have so many of the answers in one place. The problem is that the administration has grown rather unhappily autocratical. I ask you, why do you seek to be an administrator if you go about your duties so angrily? The answer, I shall presume, is that this is the place that you can push people around, if only virtually. I'm sure other students of psychology might find this site to be a mine of psychological complexes. If you were mistreated in your youth, you cannot fairly attack other people. By now, if you're even still reading this, you are resolved to block me. Well, I welcome it. I spend too much of my free time on this site and, while it is on rare occasions the tiniest bit rewarding, I don't want to become like one of the private users. But that is where the real problem lies. I'm not enough of a geek to fit in with such a society of 20-something losers with little better to do than sit in their parents' basements eating greasy chicken wings. So, block me I say. Both I and Daigear declare fresh resentment towards this site. Good day. There are two of us, by the way. Verify The Jedi AssemblyI tried to verify The Jedi Assembly's page, but no one on your staff could tell me a good way HOW to do so. You do not allow linking so i could not post a copy if the letter we have from LFL to prove our point. You also did not accept the related link I had about being able to produce said document at any time. Just how are people supposed to verify? The facts that we were awarded tables at the past 3 Star Wars Celebrations should be enough for anyone to realize that The Jedi Assembly is not just a fly-by-night group.

Your GAN of Morvogodine made me realize that I should probably add a cartography BTS section to Skor II to report the travel times Rebellion uses. I don't have the game, so do you know if there's anywhere online to find them? Or are they easy enough to look up that you might be able to get to them without too much trouble? I appreciate your help! ~ SavageBob 17:25, February 17, 2011 (UTC)

WampaStar Wars: The Clone Wars Comic UK 6.16 is up on the latest page of the Kaskus thread. The Wampa attack is only one page out of 8. Wampas attack in a mob. There is no explanation for the wampas being on that planet, and the creatures are identified (and therefore recognized) by Obi-Wan. Context: Obi-Wan and Anakin use speeders to drop onto Asuin, a planet in Hutt Space, to recover stolen plans of the Confederacy's Hypermatter Generator from a jettisoned escape pod. Upon (crash) landing near a ravine, their speeders are mobbed by large cluster of wampas (~10+). The Jedi leap across the ravine to escape, while the wampas push the swoop bikes into the ravine. The Jedi move on with their lives. Later, a clone says that crashing on the planet has made him "jumpy." That may imply that he has come across the wampas, but there is no real elaboration. Asajj is present, so this takes place after her gladiatorial appearance. SinisterSamurai 20:21, February 20, 2011 (UTC)
Re: CheckHey Tope, the added information is correct; in fact, after reviewing PoD, it seems that the Bespin information was almost complete speculation. Basically, we know that the skirmish on Alaris Prime happened exactly one month after the Battle of Phaseera, but we have no idea exactly when the battle of Bespin took place in relation to either Alaris Prime or Phaseera. In fact, the sole mention of Bespin takes place when Kaan is thinking about his recent conquest of the Bormea sector; he notes that he was met with little resistance, and then recalls that a similar thing had happened when the Sith had taken Bespin, Sullust, and Taanab. Basically, we have no idea when the battles of Bespin, Sullust, or Taanab took place other than that they were all before the battles of Corulag, Chandrila, and Brentaal (three "key" battles that were mentioned as taking place in the Sith campaign for the Bormea sector).

Suba in Murder on the ExecutorHello Toprawa, does Suba indeed appear in Murder on the Executor? I do not have the source, but I talked about this on Yodapedia, and according to the admin Wild Whiphid, he did a search for that name in his downloaded Murder, a two-part PDF, and no results came up.

ImprintIn this edit summary, I pointed you to four existing FAs that format those images as left-aligned, without "thumb" or captions, and with {{Clear}}. Why must it change all of a sudden? Based on those four articles (and there are others also that I couldn't link in the edit summary because I was out of room) having passed FAN in that state, the community clearly, at that time at least, had no problem with that formatting. Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi has been an FA for close to three years, and nobody's complained about that formatting on it. I feel that the caption is pointless because it's horribly redundant to the header, {{Main}}, and the prose, and by extension the "thumb" attribute is pointless also because the only purpose of it is to allow a caption to be given. As for left-aligning with {{Clear}}, that's clearly the current status quo. If we're going to change the formatting of all of these articles (and it should be done to all of them or none at all), it's probably best to do it through CT so as to avoid disrupting status articles with unilateral changes and potentially triggering edit wars. Anyway, that's my opinion on the matter. I'm going to bed now, so I won't get your reply until tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon. Thanks.

closing posthey toprawa, next time let a guy respond to comments in his own post before closing it in the forum. Rw2011 08:22, March 29, 2011 (UTC)
RENoted thanks. just being bold, anyway, does wookieepedia have a policy on common sense? I couldn't find a counterpart to what wiki has. Perhaps there should be a policy, but i shall look around for a little while more first. To me this seems like reading too much into or following the rules for the sake of following it. Would a sentence that reads "Luke Skywalker got sand in his eye" look nice to you? that is what i am talking about. theres no need to be mean about my views. but i shall read the manual of style and take note of the policies thank you for bringing it to my attention :) Songjin 04:06, March 31, 2011 (UTC)
Wookieepedia isn't wikipedia yes, but certain wikipedian policies including wikilawyering, assume-good-faith and the BRD policies are indeed adopted by wookieepedia. for reference, here & here. The part common sense policy was merely a question to see if there A)was a counterpart policy that wookieepedia adopted or B)if wookieepedia has adopted wikipedia's guidelines, similiar to the policy "Assume good faith" that can be found referenced under the blocking policy you have cited twice under my talk page. These policies are part of community-established policies. My reply was not meant to be a hostile kind of right-back-at-ya (i apologise if they were taken the wrong way) but i do find your comments to be very.. how to put it.. "DO IT THIS WAY.. or else" and rather putting down. I find that your constant threatening of blocking to be, well, a little on the hostile side and i also have noticed that you have been "stalking" my edit history, which i find rather disturbing for a number of reasons being 1)is it implying that you think i am a vandal? 2)displays a lack of trust due to me being new to the community? I highly doubt that this is a display of community spirit. you may cite "And, of course, others here will boldly and mercilessly edit what you write. Don't take it personally. They, like all of us, just want to make Wookieepedia as good as it can possibly be." from here but to me, it is too coincidental that you have edited those few pages that i've done some work on, especially regarding my expansion on marriage, to be otherwise. DO correct me if i am wrong, i am not one to assume the worst in people and i do not mind being wrong about this particular point. Furthermore, I do not see how i qualify for blocking as per the policy guidelines, unless you are accusing me of 14)violating consensus? The policy states further to "Always assume good faith, but remember that the rules apply to everyone equally." All this said and done, i hope you have a great day ahead! :)Songjin 10:28, March 31, 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for the reply, duly noted :) just wanted to clarify to see if it was personal or not, thankfully it isnt :) i shall explore the recent changes section another day. The matter regarding the blocking issue still stands though. PS: it was not my intention to provoke although if you feel that my message appears so, i apologise and i'd like to say that i am not trying to provoke, just to get things straight. I'm sure it isn't nice in any internet community or even physical ones to welcome people by telling them that they will be punished if they violate the rules, with a less-than-discreet emphasis on punishment. cheers :)Songjin 11:51, March 31, 2011 (UTC) WOTMJust hoping you realize that isn't a real nomination.

Commented out source publication datesHey, Tope. I appreciate your review of Filar-Nitzan, and I also understand your dislike for the commented out publication dates. Rather than continue the conversation on the nomination page, I thought I'd come here and just provide a bit more explanation for how I use those notations. Basically, I find ordering sources by publication date an onerous task because it does require the constant clicking and checking of source pages you mentioned. It gets confusing fast, especially when other editors have just placed sources willy-nilly. The commented-out publication dates have been especially helpful when dealing with an article with dozens of sources, although, certainly, their utility on something like Filar-Nitzan is debatable. In the end, I'll continue to use them, for sure, but I could see you or others making an argument that they should be deleted out once the article is "finished." My response would be that they still come in handy in those situations where someone discovers the article's topic mentioned in some half-forgotten source down the line. So, for example, if there's a Filar-Nitzan mentioned in some old WEG source that none of us has noticed yet, it would be easy to insert that source into its proper spot without having look up two or even three of the listed sources for their publication dates to find the correct placement. Anyway, my point isn't to come and say my way is right or wrong; I merely wanted to explain a bit more about how I find these things useful. I appreciate your voicing your opinion, and I hope this explication has at least shown you that I'm not crazy or trying to impose some bizarre style or anything! :) Thanks, ~ SavageBob 01:18, April 4, 2011 (UTC)
CSWE pagesHey Tope. I couldn't help but notice that you keep removing page numbers from the {{CSWECite}} template. I just wanted to ask, is there a particular reason for not using the page numbers?

Re:Arena changesThanks. Fixed. MasterFred20px(Whatever) 17:38, April 6, 2011 (UTC) Junk articlesHey Toprawa, I'd like to ask your opinion on something. Several [[Midi-chlorian enhancement|Force]]-[[Force Construct|related]] articles have been created by this user. Most [[Force sedate|of]] [[Implant Vision|these]] [[Vision enhancement|articles]] are, in my humble opinion, junk, and could easily be classified under a similar, already-created article. The articles in no way follow the manual of style or layout guide, despite both our messages on his talk page encouraging him to properly source his articles; I'm wondering what you think should be done about these articles. Should we clean them up and keep them, or should we just TC them? Like I said, the articles are mostly crap, but I don't quite feel right about deleting these potentially genuine subjects. Thanks for your thoughts.—Axinal Convocation Chamber 01:56, April 12, 2011 (UTC)

VandalI come from the Mass Effect wiki with a warning.
