Enfys Nest appearances

Hey, I see you're working on Enfys Nest's page and maybe you're already on top of this but in case you hadn't seen, she appears in Solo: A Star Wars Story Sound Book. Was just going thru that book today, but ofc don't wanna step on your toes hahaha Toqgers (talk) 05:39, September 22, 2018 (UTC)

  • Thanks! You can go ahead and add it to the page if you'd like. Is there anything about Enfys in that book that's new information? - Brandon Rhea(talk) 05:41, September 22, 2018 (UTC)
    • Done! And not really anything new in particular. It does describe her as elegant and graceful ("Don't let her elegant moves fool you; she is as deadly as she is graceful."), which could benefit a personality+traits section. Toqgers (talk) 16:02, September 22, 2018 (UTC)
      • Thanks! - Brandon Rhea(talk) 17:22, September 22, 2018 (UTC)
        • Hey would it be okay by you to update her appearances again? There's a couple I know she is in cos I have the books haha -- junior novel, look & find, ultimate sticker collection plus she was also mentioned in the latest star wars adventures comic and she's on the cover of the solo golden book that comes out in November. Cheers! Toqgers (talk) 17:10, September 28, 2018 (UTC)
          • Go for it! - Brandon Rhea(talk) 17:26, September 28, 2018 (UTC)

Attack on Imperial interrogator droids

Brandon - wanted to let you know that Attack on Imperial interrogator droids, which we both promoted to Good status, was placed on probation. I'm going to see what I can do to fix things up when I have the chance, but since you were the one who was mostly responsible for the improvements which helped to make it a Good article, I thought you should know as well. Personally, I think that there oughta be some sort of notification sent to the talk page of the original nominator when probation happens, but I suppose it is what it is. Hopefully we can get it fixed up and keep it as Good. I'd hate to see status taken away from another article. ProfessorTofty (talk) 19:43, October 8, 2018 (UTC)

  • I've been going through some of the status articles that are on probation for the same reasons that one has. I have a revised text for the date referencing that I'll add and fix it. - Brandon Rhea(talk) 19:46, October 8, 2018 (UTC)

I need to make an adoption request please.

I would like to adopt this wiki

I need to make one but I'm blocked on community Central, so please unblock me so I can adopt this wiki.

  • Because of your Community Central block, you're not eligible to adopt a wiki. If you have any further questions about that please direct them to Special:Contact since it's not relevant to Wookieepedia. Thanks. - Brandon Rhea(talk) 22:17, October 17, 2018 (UTC)

Hey, man

Can I ask you about something? How can I create blog post here? I noticed that there is no such an option.Kintobor (talk) 18:34, November 11, 2018 (UTC)Kintobor

  • Wookieepedia has chosen not to enable the blog feature, so it's not possible to create a blog. You can always post in Discussions, though. - Brandon Rhea(talk) 18:41, November 11, 2018 (UTC)

Chee Tweet

Species names

Why is this not able to be used as a source for names when it was used as a source for the XS stock light freighter before it was used in another source? - Red Duel 18:34, November 26, 2018 (UTC)

  • Hey, it comes from the canon policy: "Social media posts from Lucasfilm Story Group members or Star Wars authors are not valid independent sources of in-universe information." - Brandon Rhea(talk) 20:37, November 26, 2018 (UTC)
    • I think what Red Duel is asking Brandon is why the XS stock light freighter page uses the Leland Chee tweet but others aren't allowed too. The answer is still in that social media forum where Tope said 'However, this CT is the result of a discussion that began concerning whether that Notability policy clause should be repealed or loosened, which certainly deserves greater consideration. In the event this CT passes, we can explore doing that, which would likely mean allowing cases like XS stock light freighter to stay, at least as an unidentified article.' Now that the ship has been named in a source, the tweet can just be replaced with YT-1300 Millennium Falcon Owners' Workshop Manual --Lewisr (talk) 23:14, November 26, 2018 (UTC)

Chat?

Brandon, are you able to be on the chat sometime this evening? Had something I wanted to ask you about quickly. If you're not, it's not urgent, but there was something I was hoping to get cleared up. ProfessorTofty (talk) 21:03, January 13, 2019 (UTC)

  • Never mind - pretty sure I just answered my own question. ProfessorTofty (talk) 21:06, January 13, 2019 (UTC)
    • Good talk! :D - Brandon Rhea(talk) 21:07, January 13, 2019 (UTC)

Blogs

Hey Brandon,


I wanted to ask out of curiosity, why are the blogs disabled on Wookiepedia? MechQueste talk 04:41, February 27, 2019 (UTC)

  • Hey MecQueste. The Wookieepedia community decided long ago that they wanted to focus just on the encyclopedic aspect of a wiki, rather than including any social features. There's been a few exceptions—for example, blogs were enabled during Star Wars Celebration in order to cover the event—but on the whole Wookieepedia prefers to stick to wiki editing. - Brandon Rhea(talk) 15:58, February 27, 2019 (UTC)

Clarification

Hey Brandon, it’s Xanderen from the Game of Thrones Wiki. Sorry for messaging you here, but I just wanted to run something by you quickly... one of the guys from Fandom’s French staff team has just reached out to me on Discord about a T-shirt giveaway that you guys are running for the Got Wiki admins... I guess I just wanted to check with you that this is legit, as she’s asking for my private details (address etc) which I’m a little hesitant in sharing. So yeah, if you could just clarify that for me I’d be grateful. Cheers. - Xanderen 14:00, May 8, 2019 (UTC)

Request

Hey, is there any chance you could make this: [1] page/article free-edit, or at least free-use? Thank you so much! <3 (I'd just like to add some canon information about why the "Darth" isn't in his name any longer.

MrHappyJohn (talk) 21:41, May 21, 2019 (UTC)

  • Hi, this is a question you should ask an admin of Star Wars Fanon about. You can do that here. - Brandon Rhea(talk) 21:49, May 21, 2019 (UTC)

Using Jedi Bibliotek as a source

Hey, just a quick question. Another admin on here is telling me that we aren't allowed to use Jedi Bibliotek as a source. I am trying to use this source: https://jedi-bibliothek.de/2019/07/neue-buchcover-the-rise-of-skywalker for this image File:The Rise of Skywalker Visual Dictionary Cover.png. Is this fine? The reason I am wanting to source it there is so people know exactly where the high quality version of the image came from. The file is higher quality than the one posted on StarWars.com. Thanks so much.--Benjay2345 (talk) 01:31, July 22, 2019 (UTC)

  • Hey Benjay. I'm not an admin, so I'm not in a position to overrule an admin's decision. In my opinion, though, I would agree with whichever admin said that. Jedi Bibliotek is a really helpful site, but it's still a fan site. That means it's not a primary source, so the source for your file would have to be wherever Jedi Bibliotek got it from. - Brandon Rhea(talk) 01:55, July 22, 2019 (UTC)
    • As another note, reminder that admins here have administrative autonomy. Even if I was an admin, I wouldn't be able to give you a different answer if they had already made a final judgment call. It's not a good idea to go from admin to admin until you find the answer you're looking for. - Brandon Rhea(talk) 01:56, July 22, 2019 (UTC)
      • Thank you for the response. I was unaware of these rules surrounding who to talk to and just came to you because I wanted to know what you thought. Wasn't intending to overstep the admins bounds I was just trying to get an answer. Thanks for your understanding. --Benjay2345 (talk) 02:07, July 22, 2019 (UTC)

Auratera

Hi. How is Auratera Legends? It has never appeared in old-EU sources, it was created for 2016 rpg sourcebook of vague relationship to the continuity. SMiki55 (talk) 02:14, October 29, 2019 (UTC)

Same goes for characters from Endless Vigil who are listed as canon on its page but legends in their own articles. SMiki55 (talk) 02:29, October 29, 2019 (UTC)
Historically Wookieepedia hasn't made a consistent decision on how to treat post-2014 FFG material. I am of the opinion they are neither canon nor Legends, they are "no canon" in terms of continuity because they exist less to add to the overall Star Wars story and more to power fan role-play storytelling. A better place to ask this question ultimately would be the Forum:Senate Hall where the community can chime in. - Brandon Rhea(talk) 02:38, October 29, 2019 (UTC)

Luis 106 Lincoln

Okay. Whatever you say. You know what you just said on Community Fandom and stuff. But its not fair because I was just talking to people. I was also trying to help and be nice. But apparently nobody appreciates it. They still don’t. Unsigned comment by Luis 106 Lincoln (talk • contribs).

  • Hi. All I'll say here is that you were given ample warning to correctly use the blog comments on Community Central. Beyond that, user talk pages on Wookieepedia should only be used to discuss Wookieepedia issues. Thanks. - Brandon Rhea(talk) 23:52, December 8, 2019 (UTC)

Luis 106 Lincoln

Thank you for that edit summary Brandon Rhea. You know the one that says unsigned Luis 106 Lincoln on it. Really appreciate it. I still do too. Woo hoo.

Broken refs

Just as an FYI, you have a couple of broken refs on your "Anakin" subpage that are showing up in an error category. If you do a search for "Cite error" on the page, you should find it. -- Sulfur (talk) 23:50, 7 December 2020 (UTC)

  • Thanks for the heads up. Fixed. - Brandon Rhea(talk) 03:40, 8 December 2020 (UTC)
