Hi... an abridged "young readers edition" of the Star Wars: From the Adventures of Luke Skywalker was published at the same time as the original novel.

In the UK (Sphere Books), the original paperback had a cover with a white background, and the Young Readers edition had a red background. I searched on the internet and found this reference:

www.librarything.com/work/1023135/editions/

Here's an image of the UK cover:

Might be nice to add this the the novelisation entry.

Hi, by questionable I meant - is it anywhere written, Han Solo actualy saw or even know about Centerpoint before A New Hope? If not, I'm not surprised he reacts that way when first seeing Death Star I. So, it's still POV unless is canonized in some source, he had previous knowledge. Cheers. Btw read Centerpoint Station talk page under Continuity Headache - somebody already explain very same situation there.--Jedi Marty 11:53, February 25, 2012 (UTC)

• Thank you for your reply. Well, I was giving some thoughts about what you wrote to me and I partly agree with you. However going back through Han's biography and what I remember novels I read about him, first you learned a lot about Centerpoint was during Corellian Crisis in 18 ABY. Although it was there centuries before it has "no particular meaning" and frankly I don't think people from Corellian system even care (why should Han?) about purpose or in this case size. With a bit of stretch I could compare that to planet repulsors hidden and discovered during same crisis. Han wasn't archaelogist, you know to go after wonders of galaxy, although it was in his home system :). And it's nowhere stated (like you said) he knew about existence of Centerpoint before seeing Death Star I for the first time. It's really questionable when he learns about it's existence (surely before 18 ABY). That's why I point to NPOV. So we can only speculate and debate or like you said going thru logical conclusion based on canon. Where is that borderline between those two? Btw I noticed logical conclusion vs speculation and assumption is many times source of disputes here among users. But I'm glad you brought that up.--Jedi Marty 21:32, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

Hiya Asithol, sorry for taking so long to get back to you. I was away on holiday and without internet access so was unable to see any edits on my talk page. To answer your question, I believe I was attempting to cite the Databank Hutt article when it existed at the time. I think I tried copying the citation from another page but I think I failed in that goal :( But anyway, I'm pretty sure I was using the Databank at the time. Darth Batrus 19:03, March 15, 2012 (UTC)

We've never seen a need to create a page for it. Allowing the restarting topics months or years after they've ended can make navigating the page by looking at dates tricky and, even more importantly, it makes archiving pages a true hassle. Just don't do it, please. You're more than welcome to start new threads on whatever you want that follow {{Talkheader}}, but don't post in dead threads. NaruHina 19:26, August 6, 2012 (UTC)

Hello, Asithol! To be frank ("I must be Frank, Your Majesty."), I didn't even remember adding that to the article. I did check Order 66: A Republic Commando Novel just a minute ago, and it seems my interpretation was clearly in error. Thanks for pointing that out! Feel free to correct the article. :) --LelalMekha (talk) 08:47, April 1, 2013 (UTC)

Hello -- I've started a CT thread at Forum:CT:Naming policy: minor change to definite/indefinite article usage based on your proposed changes to the naming policy. Hope you don't mind that I went ahead and submitted the proposal. As you said, it's a minor change, so I'd expect it to pass shortly. Cheers, —Silly Dan 19:36, May 30, 2013 (UTC)

Certainly. The reasons were:

Hope that helps. - Sir Cavalier of One 07:15, August 29, 2013 (UTC)

Hello Asithol, the comment is there to illustrate the confusion between the two characters. It is also there through a process of elimination of human female expanded universe characters that have been identified as being present in Jabba's throne room during that specific event. Jess, Mara Jade Skywalker & Laudica have all been accounted for whereas Melina Carniss has not.

Also can you please direct me to the policy where short story and song titles are mandated as being in italics and why that should exclude music videos? Bo Shuda (talk) 09:05, December 15, 2013 (UTC)

• Shouldn't quotation marks only be placed outside the period where the sentence begins with a quotation mark not when the quotation starts in the middle of a sentence? Bo Shuda (talk) 09:08, December 15, 2013 (UTC)
• Hi Asithol. If you are going to continue to change appearances/sources between italics/quotations and vice versa may I remind you that Wookieepedia policy only requires MLA for citations. Not the Appearances & Source lists or article text. I think you may need to take your position on this to the forums to have the Layout Guide/MOS amended to specify that short stories and song titles should be in quotation marks as there actually isn't any policy mandating what you are doing; only the citations that appear in the Notes and References section. Also of note is that MLA is virtually non-existent internationally as Harvard & NPA are the preferred citation methods for scholarly citations. It makes it extremely difficult to adequately cite if the citation method (ie. MLA) is not even freely available. Bo Shuda (talk) 08:05, December 24, 2013 (UTC)

I reverted your edit because that sentence serves a purpose—I was trying to give context to the other sources mentioned in the article. Personally, that's something I've done in my articles for a long time. It's not intended to give any information on the sources themselves, but how the character relates to the sources. The BtS mention is meant to tell the reader that Dominus receives just a mention in those sources, or an entry in the CSWE, which directly relates to the character and I think is worthy of being in the BtS.

• Listen, I completely understand where you're coming from. If you want to take that part out, I'm not gonna make a big deal about it. 01:25, December 23, 2013 (UTC)

Hey Asithol. In response to your inquiry, the decision of whether a non-fanon/vandalism article gets deleted is not strictly limited to community voting; any article that clearly violates any of the site's policies is subject to deletion by a member of the administration. Specifically for your "errata" article, it was in violation of WP:TRIVIA—list articles, of in-universe or real world information, are generally discouraged; they do exist, but they are considered more as exceptions than as a general rule. Any errors in OOU media can be listed on the corresponding article on the product, though whether an error is too trivial to merit mentioning is definitely up for debate. If you disagree, you're welcome to start a Senate Hall thread about it—that's just my two cents. Hope that helps. CC7567 02:06, September 4, 2014 (UTC)

• This is a warning to you to stop pushing this issue. CC7567 acted perfectly within the bounds of the deletion policy by interpreting this article you attempted to create under the Wookieepedia:Trivia policy; that is to say, its substance is trivial and not deserving of an encyclopedic article here on Wookieepedia. Neither he nor any other administrator is required to take such an article through the Trash compactor process. A quorum of a half-dozen administrators presently in the Wookieepedia IRC channel unanimously supports the deletion of this article, and that's the way it's going to stay. Let it go. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 22:33, September 9, 2014 (UTC)

In the future, please do not try to move an article by copying the contents of one page to another. The proper way to move a page is to use the move function, which can be found as a small tab at the top of the page in Monobook, and as the third tab in the edit drop-down for the Wikia skin. If the function will not allow you to move the page, an administrator would have to handle moving the page. The reason that pages need to be moved in this fashion is to preserve the edit history of the original page, which would be easily lost if the text was simply copied from the original article to the new page.--Exiled Jedi (Greetings) 15:27, November 17, 2014 (UTC)

The previous article said that he played Ponda Baba, and it was deleted for being unverified information.--Exiled Jedi (Greetings) 02:54, November 20, 2014 (UTC)

I've never noticed that! Yes it was a typo, as I bought one of these myself at the event, and it is certainly not 4" by 25" LOL. I just found mine and it is about 4" by 2". Adamwankenobi (talk) 05:50, June 23, 2015 (UTC)

Hey Asithol, for future reference, please be sure place anything outside the pipelink within the double brackets. I.e: [[Luke Skywalker/Legends|Luke]]'s should be [[Luke Skywalker/Legends|Luke's]]. Note your mistake here. Thanks, JangFett 04:16, November 10, 2015 (UTC)

• "This seems to be pretty common practice throughout Wookieepedia, especially when pluralizing links (i.e. one typically finds [[Jawa/Legends|Jawa]]s rather than [[Jawa/Legends|Jawas]])." That's what you should do. 03:51, November 17, 2015 (UTC)

I've never seen anything like that, but someone may know in the Senate Hall. Adamwankenobi (talk) 22:44, November 29, 2015 (UTC)

Please take a look at your objection to Escape from Darth Vader as soon as possible. Tofty responded to it back in August. Thank you. 1358 (Talk) 12:54, January 30, 2016 (UTC)

• Say, if that's your only objection, and you don't have any others, then could I have your vote for the nomination? Thanks! ProfessorTofty (talk) 19:17, February 12, 2016 (UTC)

Hi! I just stumbled upon your profile and I noticed that you said you liked my handle, thank you so much! It's the name of one of the tracks on the TFA soundtrack, and I absolutely loved it so I decided to use it! You made my day, thank you! --Thatgirlwiththestaff (talk) 20:59, February 26, 2016 (UTC)

Sorry about modifying the HTML code for Template:MarvelStarWars.--Rakhsh (talk) 09:03, July 6, 2016 (UTC)

Just wanted to let you know that I have nominated you for Wookieepedian of the Month. If you accept the nomination, please feel free to place the UserNominated template on your userpage. Good luck! ProfessorTofty (talk) 22:27, August 2, 2016 (UTC)

Yes, that was a typo. Thanks for catching that. CC7567 07:30, August 17, 2016 (UTC)

Congratulations Asithol! You've been elected Wookieepedian of the Month for September 2016. 1358 (Talk) 12:05, September 1, 2016 (UTC)

• I read your profile and one of the dot points say "Looooves the Handle "JS-4422"!" what does that mean? --JS-4422 09:26, December 13, 2016 (UTC)

I don't recall off the top of my head (since, yeah, 2 years ago) but I will have access to both books tonight. I'll double check then. 19:20, January 19, 2017 (UTC)

• Slave II doesn't appear in NEGVV except for a slight mention in the Slave I entry, so I've fixed the ref accordingly. 01:30, January 20, 2017 (UTC)

Hi Asithol, I know this is a bit late but I happened to see your requests for unprotection on WP:RFP and would be curious to know if there's any need to modify the templates in question. Widely used templates are generally protected to avoid large-scale damage by vandals (caching and stuff can ensure the vandalism is visible even long times after it's reverted) so I'm somewhat hesitant to unlock the templates in question. Cheers, 1358 (Talk) 22:43, February 27, 2017 (UTC)

Strike three. You know what? Imma let you do your thing, you clearly know what you're doing haha. At least I'm more knowledgeable on the technicalities of the English language now :) -- Dr. Porter 06:42, April 27, 2017 (UTC)

• Nice. Well, keep up the good work. -- Dr. Porter 22:02, April 27, 2017 (UTC)

Hi Asithol, I responded to your bot requests. Please have a look when you have time. 1358 (Talk) 20:46, July 15, 2017 (UTC)

Haha no problem! I noticed that you moved it back and I wasn't doing anything at the time so I thought I'd fix the other links to it --Lewisr (talk) 21:28, July 17, 2017 (UTC)

Yeah, you're quite right. I fixed it. ProfessorTofty (talk) 21:51, December 22, 2017 (UTC)

Changes implemented. 1358 (Talk) 00:39, January 19, 2018 (UTC)

Hi Asithol! Regarding your recent edit on the Earth (planet) article, please note this. Thanks. Imperators II 19:44, May 9, 2018 (UTC)

• Were they status articles that had passed since that rule had been codified in policy? If not, is it really surprising? :P Imperators II 19:55, May 9, 2018 (UTC)

Stop removing the underscores from infobox template titles. Those are to remain as part of the native code. Thank you for your cooperation. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 13:45, July 25, 2018 (UTC)

Please stop removing the redlinks from the Han Solo at Stars' End article. The The Han Solo Adventures article is for the compendium paperback title, not the series. Currently, we have no article for the Star Wars: The Han Solo Adventures series — that's what the redlink is for. In the future, it would be better for you to ask questions first before reverting something rather than making the mistake of presuming you know what you're doing. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 01:01, September 26, 2018 (UTC)

How dare you presume I'm human! :p Joking aside, "lungfung" is indeed the correct spelling, but I see it's been fixed by DarthRuiz already. What can I say? I must have been tired that day. -- 08:39, January 4, 2019 (UTC)

Hello There!

Hi. In my experience, it's never been considered appropriate to deliberately add a redirect over a pipelink, regardless of where either takes the reader to on the page. In all of the recent TOR status articles, pipelinking to video game through "massively multiplayer online roleplaying video game" has been preferred, including the failed nomination for this article. I'm going to fix the redirect again. Please don't revert it. Thanks. Fan26 () 16:50, September 9, 2020 (UTC)

• Not redirecting is an explicit rule in the Manuel of Style. Furthermore, as I said before, no one raised this issue on TOR articles that were brought to status recently. () 17:39, September 11, 2020 (UTC)

Hi ,

Just wanted to drop a note regarding Forum:TC:Unidentified Raxus B1s as I feel there was information missing when it was created, particularly on with the second droid. You may still feel it is not notable and worth TCing, but I did want to call out that information to ensure you make an informed decision.

No need to respond, this is just an FYI only for you to be aware, in case you weren't before.

Have a good one!

Hey there. Just a heads-up about your signature here. Imperators II 06:27, 29 July 2022 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for your feedback. I plan on taking this to CT soon and have made some tweaks, let me know if there's any wording issues :) ℳÅℕ☉❂Ⅎ 12:58, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
