[edit] Shadows of the empire

Hi, I see you added some info on the shadows of the empire article. Any info you add onto the game should probably be reflected in the seperate article on the game aswell IMHO. Jacoplane 00:07, 15 July 2005 (UTC)

You seem to insist that Shadows of the Empire is a film. Who was in it? Who directed it? What kind of camera was it filmed with? - Dr Haggis - Talk 22:47, 23 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Request for submitting dispute to a Mediation Committee

Look, I think we should really submit our difference of opinion to a Mediation Committee. It is clear at this point neither I can convince you, nor you can convince me, and it is useless to continue editing each other's updates. I obviously will accept any decision the Committee makes. What do you think? Copperchair 04:37, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

Ok, I really want this edit war to stop. I edit the article from a completist fan's point of view, but I do understand how you feel on the issue. I am a huge fan of the changes made to the movies, and feel that any change he makes is how the casting should be listed, because it was his change. Although I undersatnd that there is technically an official cast listing of names given at a film's initial release that typically is understood to be the most correct form of credits, whether it actually is or not. I think that both of our ideas are great categories for an encylopedic article, and should both be incorporated somehow nto the article, mine being an updated, complete list, and yours being a list of the official credits stated i the films' ending sequences. Submitting the issue to a Mediation Commitee will be fine with me. I, for one, am tired of the long-going dispute over the issue. Adamwankenobi 18 July 2005

The edit war has been stopped by protecting the page. Anyway, glad to have talked with you in a civilized way... Copperchair 00:15, 19 July 2005 (UTC)

Yes, I LOVE the Special Editions, for two reasons: one being that those are the versions I watched at the movie theater and the ones I remember most (because I own the VHS), and the other being that Lucas said in 1997 that those were his "definitive vision" (he lied), and back then I beleived him.

[edit] Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi 2004 DVD Non-Credited roles question

Did Boba Fett actually talk in Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi?! When was that? Thank you. Copperchair 03:13, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

Boba Fett didn't actually talk, as in say any words. He made, basically two sounds. The first, which was added to the 2004 DVD, was of him laughing in Jabba's palace, made to sound dimilar to how he did in Attack of the Clones. I don't know who did this voice, whtether or not it was Temeura Morrison or Daniel Logan, or if it was computer generated. The second sound was when he screamed when his jet pack was ignited by Han and he fell in the Sarlaac and succombed to his lame death scene. And Morrison didn't voice him, the scream sounded the same as in the other editions, so we can remove that Morrison voiced Fett in Return of the Jedi. I don't know who did the scream but I'm sure its on the internet somewhere. By the way, we need to figure out something similar for the episode 3 article, so it can be unprotected as well. Adamwankenobi 21 July 2005

That's what I thought. I already removed it. Copperchair 03:55, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Signing on Talk pages

Adam, do you know how to sign your name on Talk pages? It hasn't been an issue on The Star Wars Holiday Special, since I knew who I was communicating with. But in situations with more than two editors, it's always a good idea to put your name after your comments. You do it by writing four tildes ( ~ ) in a row. BrianSmithson 13:46, 25 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Socks

We've blocked your latest sock puppet. If we catch you doing this again, we will block this account. Your good account. Redwolf24 21:20, 3 August 2005 (UTC)

We really do not appreciate sock puppet vandalism, no matter how great a user you are outside of it. You're staring a one year or indefinate block in the face. Redwolf24 03:23, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

Adam, do you understand why vandalism is not good for an encyclopedia? Really? When I read your user page, the e-mail you sent me in July, and go through your contributions--including all the anonymous ones--I'm honestly baffled. You seem to think that your vandalism is all in good fun, and you can just casually change from a vandal into a good editor and back again without consequence. Please stop, because you DO do good work on Star Wars stuff, and we don't want to have to block you. OK? Antandrus (talk) 03:51, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Template:starwars

"Close enough" is not good enough. You would have to list countless comics, books, and video games. Copperchair

I would like to mediate the revert war between yourself and Copperchair regarding the contents of the Star Wars Template, if that would be ok with you. - Dr Haggis - Talk 22:08, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Opening Crawl:starwars

I just wanted to thank you for moving the opening crawls pix. It looks much better where it's at now... I was tired when I was uploading etc., and I knew it wasn't looking the way I wanted it to. It makes sense being where it is now! Brand Eks 17:49, 15 August 2005 (UTC)brandeks

[edit] Re: SuperShadow

Ok, saw the article. It's quite odd that he looks like some innocent 12-year-old stuck in a 20-something's body, instead of someone evil-looking like this convicted child molester. You'd think the "dark energies" streaming through him every time he lies would (gradually) make him as deformed as Couey was, much like how the dark energies defaced Palpatine!

During the time that I've studied his website, he does seem to give different answers to the same questions asked by different submitters. I thought there was indeed something fishy. Looks like all evidence points to this!

I guess if he's going to lie, he should at least keep a good memory! I want my untold amount of time I spent submitting questions to him, back!

So with SuperShadow thrown out the window, who do you think is going to direct the TV Series after Lucas?

PS: Who is the guy in that tanscale photo that Supershadow purports he is?

[edit] Rv on ROTS article

This is just a friendly note not to take the revert too badly--edit summaries I use a lot for communication in resolving disagreements when it seems too trivial to take to a talk page. Anyway, I don't think it makes sense to list "Emperor Palpatine" as an alternative name for Chancellor Palpatine because it's a change of title, not of name. It's like having Admiral Needa as an alternative name for Captain Needa in ESB. — Phil Welch 06:18, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Naming Mistake.

Everything looks fine. Only the DVD of Episode II has no significant changes, and we don't know yet if the Episode III DVD will have changes, so I removed the specification before the Plot summary. By the way, regarding your adding of the "suited Darth Vader", I think it's a good one, so I urge you to look at the article for "Darth Vader", because there he is referred to as Anakin until he wears the suit, which was the object of a dispute between me and Phil. Copperchair 21:01, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Civility and Supershag11

There may be more here than meets the eye, or that I am aware of, but I noticed that one of your recent posts on User_talk:Supershag11 was less than pleasant. Please be civil to other Wikipedians. Thank you. Rob Church Talk | Desk 22:46, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

  • Hi, please do not edit other users userpages. If you have a comment for them, please leave it on their talk page. If you feel so stronly about them being a vandal, there are proper ways to report their activities, such as WP:VIP or WP:AIV. Thank you. ∞Who?¿? 22:49, 21 August 2005 (UTC)
    • You have been temporarily blocked from editing for vandalism of Wikipedia. If you wish to make useful contributions, you are welcome to come back after the block expires. FreplySpang (talk) 22:49, August 21, 2005 (UTC)
      • Hmm someone vandalizing your Star Wars articles? Now do you have an idea how people feel when you mess with the Bush article? Redwolf24 22:59, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Unblocked

Adam, I blocked you by mistake. Your edit to my usertalk page happened at nearly the same time as someone who vandalized it quite rudely, and I thought it was you. I apologize. (But please do stop using the speedy-delete template on your friend's user page. It messes with our speedy-deletion process when you do.) FreplySpang (talk) 23:08, August 21, 2005 (UTC)


[edit] The 1,000,000th article!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not that I want to congradulate you on vandalism, but I did have a good laugh when I saw that come up and umm could not bring myself to actually do anything to the article. That was hillarious needless to say. Go you! I mean, I support nothing like that, nothing... yeah. --Mr. Dude †@£К ║ Çøת†яĭβü†ĬŎИ 07:26, August 22, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hey, thanks

And keep up the good work on Star Wars! Antandrus (talk) 23:56, 23 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] What a film is

A film needs certain things to truly exist. It does not need a soundtrack. It does not need a book. It does not need a game. It doesn't even need a plot. It does however need to be filmed on with a camera that records motion. Since Shadows of the Empire was never filmed, it is not a movie.

Pac Man has a game, a book, a toyline, a soundtrack and a TV show, but that does not make it a feature film.

Please consider this before adding Shadows to the films category. - Dr Haggis - Talk 04:06, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] User:Jimbo Wales moved to User:Jumbo Whales?

Sorry. I didn't realize it was a little joke. I was assuming it was vandalism. You're unblocked now. Redwolf24 04:57, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] B-101

I don't know of any rumors about the Imperial stuff I said (which is why I asked). But I do think it is possible, as the series will take place before ROTS and ANH. They might do Han, as he was an Imperial officer, or could expand the history of Admiral Piett. We'll just have to wait and see.- B-101 01:03, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Your block

You were not logged in; I did not block your account. I may have blocked your IP for vandalism. (Since I don't know your IP, I can't say what the specific vandalism was) If you don't want to be blocked for your brother's vandalism, you may want to prevent your brother from using your computer. --Golbez 01:21, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Heads up

Dakota F . is cute and seems mature for her age. BTW, you may be interested in uncyclopedia . May the force be with you.--Jondel 01:22, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

Yes, your edits here are rather disturbing and possibly criminal. Please keep your "sense of humour" in check. - Dr Haggis - Talk 05:29, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Stop reverting ESB.

The article is in desperate need of attention, and complete denial of any problem is BAD. Now leave it alone. - A Link to the Past (talk) 01:28, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

A revolation is that Wikipedia is NOT your personal plaything. I'm looking at your talk page, and you have done one of the biggest offenses on Wikipedia - sockpuppetry. And now, you revert edits without even considering that, perhaps, the article DOES need cleaning up. I've been here for almost a year, and you've been here for only about one month and ten days. - A Link to the Past (talk) 01:47, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

I also see you're sixteen years old. That would explain it. Oh well, at least school will help keep you from burdening Wikipedia anymore. I'm trying to help Empire Strikes Back, and you put that shit back on. I have encouraged admins at the wikipedia channel to not take vandal shit from you, so I suggest you fix up your act, or your ass is going to be torn. - A Link to the Past (talk) 01:55, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

When did I say this is my article? Am I the one reverting quality edits because I don't want people outside of my community involved? Or am I the guy who said: "Wikipedia is what I want it to be, not what others want it to be."? - A Link to the Past (talk) 02:08, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

It's true I have done sock puppetry. It was an enjoyable experience. But if you noticed, I am also a frequent useful contributor to the star wars articles. I've never vandalized them because I have respect for them. George W. Bush, on the other hand, I do not, nor his page, which is why I used a string of sock puppets to vandalize it. Wikipedia is what I want it to be, not what others want it to be. Adamwankenobi 01:51, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
Interesting. Thank you for that. --Cool Cat My Talk 02:06, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

Uh, what? I've gotten three articles featured, and how many have you gotten featured? None? *thumbs up* Excuse my childishness; Back the actual point, you yourself admitted it needed a rewrite, but you wanted your friend to do it. If it's so bad of an edit, you wouldn't have claimed that it was an appropriate edit now, would you? - A Link to the Past (talk) 02:18, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

I repeat, Wikipedia is not your own personal play thing. If you want to make the perfect article that goes against reasonability of Wikipedia, there's a place more willing to accept it. [1] - A Link to the Past (talk) 03:00, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] What do you mean?

The sock puppet string was back in June. Oh, they took care of it, quite well. I'm done, as they threatened me with a year-long ban. They are VERY aware of what I have done. I caused them to rethink their policies on vandalism. What is your concern with it, by the way? Adamwankenobi 02:18, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

If you are bragging about sockpuppetary you are less then aware of anything or choose to ignore it. I dont threaten people, I just do it. --Cool Cat My Talk 02:21, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Star Wars: SOTE

Please stop adding the SW Films cat to Shadows of the Empire. It is not a film. Has never been, will never be. We've altered the template to allow inclusion of SOTE, along with Star Tours and a variety of other things. Please stop adding this cat and creating yet another revert war; it's just childish at this point. Anthony 16:28, August 25, 2005 (UTC)
