Thrawn trilogy

I have removed the redirects from the individual articles to this page. I think they should each have their own separate articles covering the content in the books. So far, I've only added images and basic information to the pages, but I think someone should add specific info on each book. The Wookieepedian 20:42, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I think that's a good idea. I haven't read them in a long time, but I was thinking of re-reading the trilogy; if I do, I'll be sure to add to the articles. – Mipadi 21:25, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Boba Fett quote

I noticed on the Boba Fett page's history that you said you had never heard Boba's quote of "I take it you have no love for the empire." Well, maybe I can help you, OHHHHH boy, can I help you. You may regret this, but, check this website, and I think you can find out everything you want, and don't want to know about where that quote comes from. What am I referring to you ask. Why, The Star Wars Holiday Special! Yes, there's even a page on wikipedia about this, um, thing. I am a frequent contributor to that article, and I think you'll find it very informative, in addition to that website. Oh, and, if you happen to want to watch it, search for it on eBay, it's very easy to find there. Enjoy! The Wookieepedian 01:39, 4 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Boba Fett headers

The origins of this thread can be found here.

I didn't include the typical headers, becuase, in viewing the article with them, it really was quite difficult to tell what was what. It cluttered up the article, and the ones I have just seem to work better, visually. They make it easier to determine taht the subcategories of the expanded universe aren't categories of their own. Using ==== really messed the look of the article up. The Wookieepedian 02:31, 4 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Boba Fett quotes

I do like the new format. It does look better than the way I had them. I had only included his ROTJ scream and laugh out of fanboy purposes, but anyway... Had Copperchair worked on the article, he would have removed all non-movie quotes, as he seems to want all articles to fit a purist standard. Anyway, good work!

Barnstar- wear it proudly

Enjoy! For your unremitting work on the Lists of... articles, which have eaten many a valiant editor. --Maru (talk) 23:27, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Is there such an article x that for every E there exists...

I noticed that you've created a bunch of book articles. I'd appreciate it if you could go through List of Star Wars references and wikify the ones you know of (I needed to add some references to my new article Inquisitorius (Star Wars) and I saw some of the wikilinks were unredded.) --Maru (talk) 07:13, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I'll take a look and see if any can be linked. – Mipadi 15:12, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Just talking to the guy who made the silly edit to the Sith Code I reverted in my edit. Jon Hart 00:42, 16 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, right, I see now. – Mipadi 03:14, 16 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Han Shot First – Wikipedia is not a soapbox

Uh - since you asked. I see no reason NOT to include the kink with Han Shot First in the Han Solo article. I happen to be one of those people who belive Lucas' alterations of an already properly made scene, diminishes the end result. -- Jason Palpatine 22:36, 18 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I question whether it has an NPOV—Wikipedia is not a soapbox. – Mipadi 23:00, 18 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

kink -- n. A difficulty or flaw that is likely to impede operation, as in a plan or system.

You know it's a misskey, but reading it, I realize thatkink really is appropriate. And, yes, I agree; Wikipedia is not a soapbox. Good call. But now I'm curious. How is it that the HSF article even exists? It is such an argumentative sub-stub, that I don't understand why it is here at all. It seems more like a section of the Han Solo and Greedo articles. -- Jason Palpatine 23:58, 18 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know how it exists. I didn't make it. – Mipadi 06:19, 19 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Substing {{main}}

Please do not subst {{main}}, because it standardizes the format of the message across Wikipedia. Thank you! 19:17, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

Okay, no problem, ah…well, whoever you are. :) – Mipadi 19:27, 22 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Whoops, that was me, I accidentally wrote 5 tildes instead of 4. Sorry! --AySz88^-^ 21:47, 22 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

A small suggestion

Hi,

I read your article about "Imperial Intelligence" and enjoyed it very much.

I did have one small suggestion that I wanted to pass by you rather than just making the change. In the first sentence you say "Imperial Intelligence is a fictional organization in the Star Wars universe." which sounds like in the Star Wars universe it is fictional. I know it's kind of splitting hairs but I would suggest that "Imperial Intelligence is an organization in the fictional Star Wars universe." would be more accurate.

Keep up the good work, Gnar Olak

A good point—I'll make the change immediately. Thanks! – Mipadi 19:52, 28 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Adelphi University Edit

You edited Adelphi's information and re-partitioned the titles "In the Arts" and "In Athletics". This was unusual because I felt it was fine before and you changed it, switching the outline form that was created: Alumni was a subordinate title to the different categories of alumni info and should have been kept as the main title with the two groups as subdivisions of that. It really isn't a big deal, but I just don't understand why you did what you did.--Screwball23 ^talk 03:56, 29 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, the changing of the header levels was actually an accident. – Mipadi 05:31, 29 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Neeraj Kayal, et. al pages

Hi Mipadi. Neeraj Kayal, Manindra Agrawal and Nitin Saxena invented and proposed the AKS Primality Test in 2002, which attracted worldwide attention and is considered one of the more important results in Computer Science and Computational Complexity of the last decade if not more. They are very important researchers and computer scientists. --- (Bob) Wikiklrsc 09:38, 29 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. Is there some way I can help with these articles? – Mipadi 15:33, 29 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Bash.org references

Nice work. It looks much prettier now. CXI 15:41, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Rouge Squadron edit

Sorry, my bad. I got the two confused for a second, which is odd for me, because I am the biggest Rouge Squadron fan in the universe. Megageek

Rouge Squadron—is that a squadron that flies around putting makeup on people? – Mipadi 02:35, 14 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
