From your recent edits to List of films about possessed or sentient inanimate objects and Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation you appear to be under a misapprehension about the movie title: it is, indeed, Colossus: The Forbin Project and not Colossus: The Forbidden Project, since the computer was the brainchild of Dr Forbin. -- Arwel 22:29, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Whoops. I thought Forbidden made more sense, but Google confirms it's Forbin. Just a tad embarrassing.--Kross 22:51, Feb 26, 2005 (UTC)

:) Don't worry - I've just reverted all your other outstanding edits, though other people had already caught some of them! -- Arwel 23:02, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Culture of Turkey

[edit]

Thanks for some of your work on Culture of Turkey :) --VivaEmilyDavies 01:04, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

My pleasure, M'Lady. :) --Kross 03:28, Apr 1, 2005 (UTC)

swwiki notice

[edit]

This notice simply serves no purpose at all. It doesn't add any informational content to the page itself, and it doesn't call for any editing action to be taken on the page (as opposed to a "cleanup" notice or a "vote for deletion" notice). If you want to make a copy of it, go ahead and make a copy of it or make several copies of it and distribute it wherever you want under the GFDL, on Wikimedia sites or elsewhere. It would only take a few seconds to do so. It makes no sense at all to try to place a notice on the page indefinitely... are you waiting for someone else to show up and do this copying you suggest? If this is simply a stealthy way of suggesting the page ought to be deleted as fancruft (moved rather than copied), well that won't do... you'd need to nominate it for Vfd. -- Curps 00:26, 10 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Just to add to this, if you really want to add the Swwiki template, which really isn't necessary given that you can copy whatever article you like to the SW wiki, could you please add it to the talk page of the article so that it does not distract from the article? All articles tagged with the swwiki template can be seen at Category:Star_Wars_Wiki_candidates. It is unlikely that the information from any of these articles will be deleted due to the Wikipedia semi policy WP:FICT. -- Lochaber 13:27, 12 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

First off, I didn't create the template. Second, I wasn't the first person to add the tag to those pages. Someone else did. I simply readded them after they were removed. Third, why would I want to delete pages that I've worked on and improved several times before? --Kross 19:30, May 12, 2005 (UTC)

Comic Book Guy

[edit]

Your "rewording" of Comic Book Guy in the List of recurring characters from the Simpsons seems to consist of deleting the entire section. If there is "his own page", then where? Comic Book Guy redirects back to the list. If there isn't, then the section has to be reinserted. JIP | Talk 17:27, 11 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed the redirects. Knew I forgot something. --Kross 17:33, May 11, 2005 (UTC)

Invite to the Wookieepedia

[edit]
  • On that note of articles being copied to the Star Wars Wiki, or as many have come to call it, Wookieepedia, I believe you may be of some use to it. We need great contributors like yourself to provide a source of SW information, albeit a much better one than the Wikipedia can provide.

The link is Wikicities:c:StarWars. Hope to see you there.

Aayla Secura

[edit]

I did not actually move it back. Someone else had done it already. All I did was redirect Aayla Securato the list of minor jedi characters when I saw the entry on WP:DA.Phils 13:56, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

You should try an calm down about this matter. I also did not put in Aayla she was in fact duplicated along with many others. This is a very busy article and can often get into an unintentional mess. MeltBanana 21:52, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

No problems, I've been meaning to find a decent picture for a long while. Yesterday I've got a hold of DFII and cheated myself through all levels until I had all FMV clips available. Of all, the one with him and the lightsaber looked the most appropriate. I should now try to get a better screen from Jedi Academy, or a better one for Jan Ors from the DFII FMVs. wS

Mandalores

[edit]

Hmm... Maybe deleting/redirecting all the three of them was a little too much? Although... indeed they didn't contain any valuable info. Maybe just add the succession boxes to the list? - Sikon 13:58, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)


Vote for deletion alert

[edit]

I see from the page history for Cut Ending to Knights of the Old Republic II that you once edited it. I thought you would like to know that there is a VfD on that page now at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Votes_for_deletion/Cut_Ending_to_Knights_of_the_Old_Republic_II. Please stop in there and comment on this vote! --maru 15:53, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Sith succession (we'll never get that straightened out, it seems)

[edit]

You recently reverted an edit to Andeddu about Darth Millenial. By sheer coincidence, this very day I came across a reference to Millenial in an essay by a Wikipedian named Publius who has been a solid source, and completely accurate as far as my SW knowledge permits checking, in his essay on Palpatine here (scroll down to the last paragraph of Friends and Allies). This isn't enough to confirm it, we might need to ask Publius his sources, but perhaps it would be wiser to be less hasty reverting in the future while we are unsure. --maru 03:41, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

'Course, this means that somebody'll have to dig up Millenial's origins and whip up an article, else we'll have a known gap in our succession. --maru 14:49, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Kaja Sinis

[edit]

Google shows that he was indeed the first Jedi, although I initially thought it was vandalism. --Sikon 07:18, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Sik, did you carefully check out the Google links? All of the English results on the first page of Google results, if you look closely, bear SuperShadow marks (ex. one, in the form of a FAQ, seems legit, untill you notice an entry for "Darth Rage"), which makes me much more than a little suspicious. --maru 16:49, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
The origins of the Jedi Order are a mystery. Hell, no one even knows which planet the order was founded on. Its SuperShadow nonsense.--Kross 17:54, Jun 23, 2005 (UTC)
