Hi, Benjay! Hope things are well! I noticed you uploaded a new version of the Finn Advanced Graphics image. However, while the current version has a higher resolution, it is of much lower quality than the original upload; if you zoom in on the image, it quickly becomes pixelated. Since the proper resolution for the image appears to be the 256x321 version, I would recommend reverting to that. Or, better yet, I would utilize the previous Fathead photo, which is a clearer image. - Cwedin 04:20, September 20, 2017 (UTC)

The image is currently protected to prevent users engaging in a reversion war, which you (and others) had been participating in whenever users uploaded newer versions. You constantly reverted it to the wider crop when it was apparent that several users (including myself) felt that the closer crop was more appropriate for the infobox. As such, to prevent further back and forth, I have uploaded an unmodified image. I also believe that the image should not have been modified from the original source with a transparent background. - Sir Cavalier of One 22:19, November 5, 2017 (UTC)

Hey. Beyond the image quality issue—it's very blurry; bigger does not mean better, and blowing up an image to make it larger generally hurts an image's quality—the Vanity Fair photos like are photos of the actors. It's better to think of that image as a photo of Oscar Isaac as Poe Dameron, not a photo of Poe Dameron. For that reason those photo shoot images should not be used as in-universe portrayals of the characters. - Brandon Rhea 03:56, November 6, 2017 (UTC)

Please stop messing around with the images, you were told that removing the backgrounds was changing an image in a significant way from the original source, which isn't really allowed. --Lewisr (talk) 04:18, November 7, 2017 (UTC)

Hi Benjay -- I have uploaded a new version that I took directly from the source but cropped in the same way as you had it. I could not upload your version directly to the image as it was .jpg file while the original was a .png file; the system does not allow you to replace images with different file extensions. I have also deleted the placeholder image since it is no longer needed. - Sir Cavalier of One 17:27, November 7, 2017 (UTC)

You should stop changing infobox pictures. Instead ask on the talk page to see if anyone agrees. You keep saying "better crop", "less distracting", but some users already expressed that those are personal views. Not everyone agree on that, to see if they agree ask on the talk page of the article. Like the rule says Wookieepedia:Consensus "Certain article talk-page votes, which may be held on a case-by-case basis to determine such particulars as an article's main infobox image", although is not necessary to do votes, Just Ask and stop with uneccessary changes--189.222.70.81 02:23, November 11, 2017 (UTC)

Hey when you upload images please check you are filling out the template correct, you put some stuff in the wrong place but I changed them for you, cat license is for category:images from blah blah and cat type is category:live action images etc, hope this makes sense --Lewisr (talk) 19:54, November 12, 2017 (UTC)

Higher dimensions does not equal higher quality. Such as with File:Hos.png. Yes, when you click view the image to get the following link https://lumiere-a.akamaihd.net/v1/images/hosnian-prime-16-9_1d77d3d3.jpeg?region=69%2C0%2C1422%2C800&width=768 you can change the numerical value of 768 width to as high as 4000, but that is just artificially enlarging the image. To actually see the image its full-size, native resolution, you need to remove everything after the .jpeg and hit enter. That is the true size of the image. And in this image's case, that resolution is 1560x800 pixels. Just wanted to give you that head's up as to why I reverted it back. - JMAS 02:05, November 13, 2017 (UTC)

It is preferred to center the subjects head/face in an infobox image, as Shmi's head was centered in my crop. The way you have it cropped, her head is more left and not centered. - JMAS 05:28, November 13, 2017 (UTC)

You were the one who uploaded the previous image on Paige's page, why do you keep messing about with images and removing backgrounds and then say we should avoid using images with transparent backgrounds? --Lewisr (talk) 02:31, December 4, 2017 (UTC)

Image dimensions do not equal higher resolution. Every single image I have uploaded from TLJ Special Edition magazine are at resolution of 300 dpi (pixels/inch). Your uploads are at a resolution of 72 dpi. Less than 1/4 the quality. So regardless that your uploads may have seemingly higher resolution, they do, in fact, have lower quality. This clearly evident when you look at the images at full size, and look at the details around lines, or edges of garments, etc. - JMAS 05:25, December 31, 2017 (UTC)

Hey sorry I just saw this, when you say contents box do you mean an infobox? --Lewisr (talk) 13:42, December 31, 2017 (UTC)

Please, don't use leaked information as a source Thanks--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 21:18, January 5, 2018 (UTC)

Hello. Please stop moving book articles, since it's clear you have no idea what you're doing. We have a detailed codified policy for how to name book articles with regards to when and when not to include the Star Wars prefix. You should leave this to editors who are familiar with these policies. Thank you. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 23:55, January 5, 2018 (UTC)

Please add the correct source for from wherever you found it or it will be deleted in accordance with our image policy. Thank you. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 02:25, January 6, 2018 (UTC)

Hi, please don't modify any of Tallie images I appreciate you're trying to help, but besides I'm using them for the article and my workbench its already been said larger is not higher quality--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 21:54, January 7, 2018 (UTC)

Instead of arguing in the summary comments because you disagree for an image punctuation use talk pages that's why they're there, right now Connix page has 12 changes just because you and another use disagree on punctuation. Mistakes happen and especially grammatical mistakes, but instead of just reverting and making an edit war. Ask the user on his talk page his reason or motives before coming to the 12 changes, maybe he's wrong or maybe its you, but without dialogue and asking you will never know. --DarthRuiz30 (talk) 04:21, January 11, 2018 (UTC)

"Connix sporting her blonde buns and a junior controller's uniform" is not grammatically correct, not if you want to add the full stop (i.e. period) at the end. The correct form would be "Connix sported blonde buns and a junior controller's uniform" or "Connix, sporting her blonde buns and a junior controller's uniform, was a Resistance officer during the Starkiller crisis."

Frankly, I'm not interested in having an edit war over one image, but both DarthRuiz and I feel that the article was better off while you're the only one resetting it back to the way you recently edited it. In the future, please take whatever disagreements you have to the talk page of the user or article in question as you are close to violating the three revert rule. JRT2010 (talk) 04:55, January 11, 2018 (UTC)

Hey Benjay, I hope I didn't come off as too harsh when I reverted you earlier. You were indeed correct about the article's original image, but if an article is {{Inuse}}, I highly recommend that you talk to the article's editor via his or her talk page to discuss issues rather than reverting him or her. In any case, I hope my expansion of Snoke's slippers brings warm feelings to your heart. :P JangFett 05:54, January 11, 2018 (UTC)

Don't just tag for delete if the image is on use in more than one page, you can look for it (As sometimes I do when this happens), ask the user who uploaded, leave a message on the image talk page. Help instead of just rushing--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 23:27, January 12, 2018 (UTC)

You have been blocked from contributing for 2 hours for persistent edit-warring, a violation of Wookieepedia's 3RR policy. If you have a disagreement over an article with another user, the solution is not to engage in a back-and-forth reversion war. Take the issue to the article's talk page, the other user's talk page, or find an administrator to intervene. To contest this block, please contact the blocking administrator with the reason you believe the block is unjustified. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 00:50, January 13, 2018 (UTC)

Hey, did you block the Wookieepedia Twitter account on your own account? I saw you were tweeting to Matt Martin but now all of a sudden I can't see your tweets anymore (including a recent reply), and it says the account is blocked. - Brandon Rhea 09:18, January 14, 2018 (UTC)

Hi Benjay, you need to add a reliable source for that image, so far that person is not a source because it doesn't seems to work with Lucasfilm, Disney, fan sites, etc. You need a good source or something that says that poster was scanned or how he got it--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 20:46, January 15, 2018 (UTC)

Sadly yes, images from a legends source can't be used on canon articles. Canon articles can only use canon source images--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 21:42, January 15, 2018 (UTC)

If you're going to add images to a page, please at least go through and alternate the images left and right as per the layout guide --Lewisr (talk) 21:30, February 6, 2018 (UTC)

Don't forget to update the source for all your high quality additions, as you said to me before if the current link don't show the high quality image then it could be considered falsifying sources--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 03:19, February 18, 2018 (UTC)

No is not an improvement, you got the idea that a "higher"/larger quality is better for infoboxes, the film screenshot is better since its has a more clear shot of her face plus is looking to the front a requirement for infobox pictures. She's not even looking in front that picture plus is blurry, that image would be better for the P&T section, not the infobox. --DarthRuiz30 (talk) 02:18, February 23, 2018 (UTC)

I'm not sure why there's any need to change the image, its been there since 2015. I'm also not quite sure what you mean, the image you're adding comes from a legends source and makes no mention about a poster --Lewisr (talk) 18:26, April 19, 2018 (UTC)

Please stop removing the image, you've already broken the 3RR and that could lead to a cooldown block. The issue is already on discussion, feel free to give your opinion. Thanks!--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 06:02, April 21, 2018 (UTC)

Where are the Tonnika sisters‎‎ mentioned in Solo? --Lewisr (talk) 06:22, May 26, 2018 (UTC)

Hey Benjay. Couple of things:

Thanks. - Brandon Rhea 01:46, August 1, 2018 (UTC)

Please be advised that although the general image policy specifies that uploads for article use should be of the highest quality available, the user image policy specifies that the total file size of userpage images cannot exceed 500 kilobytes. You have uploaded a user image that exceeds this limit by more than ten times, thus it has been deleted per policy. You may reupload your user image once this is corrected. -- Darth Culator 00:13, October 19, 2018 (UTC)

Look through the history before you keep reverting, it was deleted 3 times before so why all of a sudden would it be okay to keep now? I don't care about the Luke/Kylo thing, that has nothing to do with anything, there's a category for duels so its already redundant to list every single one --Lewisr (talk) 20:54, January 8, 2019 (UTC)

I’m Trevor Jaco. 71.209.218.252 20:40, May 27, 2019 (UTC)

I'll let you know, that you're the only one that want it to change. There's no need to add the other one, that one VF image looks perfectly fine and its better for the infobox. In all cases, you're the one that needs to take it to the talk page.--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 07:46, July 20, 2019 (UTC)

As you can see here, here and here, I've done this for several users, its not my fault that you did the same thing. The Jedi-Bibliothek thing is how I've enforced several times, so don't believe that's a "Personal" thing, not my fault that you see it that way. Just because something exists already like that, it doesn't mean that it should continue to be done like that. You think that because someone added fanon years ago, and hasn't been discovered, someone should continue to do it today? I know that Jedi-Bibliothek exists, I follow them, but that doesn't make me go immediately and grab the image, I know that in two or one day Penguin Random House will update their website and add the image. So don't think that its something unique that if we don't get it now its going to dissapear. The cover is fine, it can be used for the meantime while an official source updates their website. "You are going to make it where contributors like myself won't want to contribute", that's up to you, I'm just enforcing the rule how I've done it for several times--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 01:21, July 22, 2019 (UTC)

Can you give me the reason of why this should be deleted?? Is the exact same image, both of them gotten from their respective website (I've downloaded both images from both websites). So, whats the reason?--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 02:52, July 22, 2019 (UTC)

If you're going to post links to external links, rather than lazily just putting the url, you need to use the actual template and fill it out. --Lewisr (talk) 23:58, August 29, 2019 (UTC)

Hey Benjay, can you please update the info on to match your crop? You uploaded a new version but the info on the file page still reflects my upload, which is reflective of what's on SW.com. So not entirely sure where yours came from or what it's reflective of. Thanks. - Brandon Rhea 05:41, November 16, 2019 (UTC)

You need to stop cropping images because you believe they need to be cropped. I know how to properly crop an image, as I have been editing on Wookieepedia over 4x longer than you have. Regarding the Leia image, her head is perfectly centered if you take the edge of her hair on the left and right to the edge of the image. Her face is turned slightly so her nose is not dead center, and it doesn't need to be. - JMAS 03:22, January 2, 2020 (UTC)

Hello Benjay, about you recent revision earlier today on Darth Sidious, while you are in the right for asking for the page to be protected, you were overzealous in your revert of more than a dozen edits, including bot edits and things unrelated to the novelization. Please, in the future, try to be more mindful. Thank you. --NanoLuuke 19:27, March 8, 2020 (UTC)

PseudoMonobook has stopped working because Wookieepedia has recently switched to the Unified Community Platform. I don't really have a timeline for getting PseudoMonobook adjusted for UCP but I presume it will take a week or two at least. Cheers, 1358 (Talk) 18:29, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

Benjay, you've been uploading images long enough. You know the rules. Come on. . Other than - or _, . - JMAS 14:52, 2 November 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for contributing to Wookieepedia! Please note that at least one of your recent additions added an external link without including a backup link.

UberSoldat93 (talk) 15:09, 16 November 2020 (UTC)

Hello. Please familiarize yourself with the requirements of the Wookieepedia Image policy, which requires that files be uploaded using the .jpg extension, not .jpeg. Thank you. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 20:57, 23 November 2020 (UTC)

This image was voted on by the community exactly as it is for the infobox. It was selected over a tighter cropped version of the same image. - JMAS 18:51, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

It's better to think of that image as a photo of Oscar Isaac as Poe Dameron, not a photo of Poe Dameron. For that reason those photo shoot images should not be used as in-universe portrayals of the characters. - Brandon Rhea 03:56, November 6, 2017 (UTC)

Backgrounds


Please stop messing around with the images, you were told that removing the backgrounds was changing an image in a significant way from the original source, which isn't really allowed. --Lewisr (talk) 04:18, November 7, 2017 (UTC)

  • I did not know that this applied for all images. There are tons of images very similar to the one of Chopper on this wiki that have backgrounds removed for the sake of a better infobox image. It seems that this rule has either been nonexistent or not been enforced. Why is this all of the sudden a big deal?--Benjay2345 () 04:20, November 7, 2017 (UTC)

Rey crop


Hi Benjay -- I have uploaded a new version that I took directly from the source but cropped in the same way as you had it. I could not upload your version directly to the image as it was .jpg file while the original was a .png file; the system does not allow you to replace images with different file extensions. I have also deleted the placeholder image since it is no longer needed. - Sir Cavalier of One 17:27, November 7, 2017 (UTC)

Stop


You should stop changing infobox pictures. Instead ask on the talk page to see if anyone agrees. You keep saying "better crop", "less distracting", but some users already expressed that those are personal views. Not everyone agree on that, to see if they agree ask on the talk page of the article. Like the rule says Wookieepedia:Consensus "Certain article talk-page votes, which may be held on a case-by-case basis to determine such particulars as an article's main infobox image", although is not necessary to do votes, Just Ask and stop with uneccessary changes--189.222.70.81 02:23, November 11, 2017 (UTC)

  • I opened a discussion on the Shmi talk page but I just had thought that since the image was clearly higher quality and forward facing instead of slightly to the side that it would obviously be a better infobox image. My bad.--Benjay2345 () 02:36, November 11, 2017 (UTC)

Uploading images


Hey when you upload images please check you are filling out the template correct, you put some stuff in the wrong place but I changed them for you, cat license is for category:images from blah blah and cat type is category:live action images etc, hope this makes sense --Lewisr (talk) 19:54, November 12, 2017 (UTC)

  • Okay I'll be sure to do it correctly. Thanks for the reminder.--Benjay2345 () 20:11, November 12, 2017 (UTC)

Larger images


Higher dimensions does not equal higher quality. Such as with File:Hos.png. Yes, when you click view the image to get the following link https://lumiere-a.akamaihd.net/v1/images/hosnian-prime-16-9_1d77d3d3.jpeg?region=69%2C0%2C1422%2C800&width=768 you can change the numerical value of 768 width to as high as 4000, but that is just artificially enlarging the image. To actually see the image its full-size, native resolution, you need to remove everything after the .jpeg and hit enter. That is the true size of the image. And in this image's case, that resolution is 1560x800 pixels. Just wanted to give you that head's up as to why I reverted it back. - JMAS 02:05, November 13, 2017 (UTC)

  • Okay thanks for clarifying. Also on the Starkiller Base image I meant to just put a plain black background but I must have accidentally clicked the wrong image to use as the background. Sorry about that. --Benjay2345 () 02:37, November 13, 2017 (UTC)

It is preferred to center the subjects head/face in an infobox image, as Shmi's head was centered in my crop. The way you have it cropped, her head is more left and not centered. - JMAS 05:28, November 13, 2017 (UTC)

Paige Tico


You were the one who uploaded the previous image on Paige's page, why do you keep messing about with images and removing backgrounds and then say we should avoid using images with transparent backgrounds? --Lewisr (talk) 02:31, December 4, 2017 (UTC)

Image resolution.


Image dimensions do not equal higher resolution. Every single image I have uploaded from TLJ Special Edition magazine are at resolution of 300 dpi (pixels/inch). Your uploads are at a resolution of 72 dpi. Less than 1/4 the quality. So regardless that your uploads may have seemingly higher resolution, they do, in fact, have lower quality. This clearly evident when you look at the images at full size, and look at the details around lines, or edges of garments, etc. - JMAS 05:25, December 31, 2017 (UTC)

  • I don't know why you are telling me this again. I simply moved your higher dpi Finn image to a revision of the duplicate Finn image which is how you are supposed to upload a higher quality version of an image that has already been uploaded, and then cropped the Phasma image tighter because it looks better that way in the infobox. Your images have not been taken down so I don't know why you are telling me this again. And also, just out of curiosity, what is your method for getting the higher resolution images?--Benjay2345 () 05:32, December 31, 2017 (UTC)

Hello. Please stop moving book articles, since it's clear you have no idea what you're doing. We have a detailed codified policy for how to name book articles with regards to when and when not to include the Star Wars prefix. You should leave this to editors who are familiar with these policies. Thank you. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 23:55, January 5, 2018 (UTC)

  • I was literally moving them back to where they would fit the policy. User:JMAS had moved The Force Awakens storybook to where it had Star Wars in the title so I changed The Last Jedi one to match it. I then looked at the policy concerning this and then changed the one I had changed to fit the policy and then changed the one User:JMAS had changed back to where it would fit the policy. He is who you should be telling about the policy. --Benjay2345 () 00:16, January 6, 2018 (UTC)

Image source


Please add the correct source for from wherever you found it or it will be deleted in accordance with our image policy. Thank you. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 02:25, January 6, 2018 (UTC)

Tallie Images


Hi, please don't modify any of Tallie images I appreciate you're trying to help, but besides I'm using them for the article and my workbench its already been said larger is not higher quality--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 21:54, January 7, 2018 (UTC)

Advice


Instead of arguing in the summary comments because you disagree for an image punctuation use talk pages that's why they're there, right now Connix page has 12 changes just because you and another use disagree on punctuation. Mistakes happen and especially grammatical mistakes, but instead of just reverting and making an edit war. Ask the user on his talk page his reason or motives before coming to the 12 changes, maybe he's wrong or maybe its you, but without dialogue and asking you will never know. --DarthRuiz30 (talk) 04:21, January 11, 2018 (UTC)

  • I explained to him on his talk page concerning the proper grammar for the situation. In my opinion, the one who is correct is not the one creating the edit war the one who keeps reverting the correct grammar is the one edit warring. Grammar is not a subjective idea and is either correct or incorrect. My edit of the caption is the correct version and my explanation on User:JRT2010's talk page should clear that up. As far as mistakes go, I understand completely but after it is explained on someone's talk page and they continue to revert it, it is no longer a mistake.--Benjay2345 () 04:26, January 11, 2018 (UTC)

RE: Images bleeding into behind the scenes section


"Connix sporting her blonde buns and a junior controller's uniform" is not grammatically correct, not if you want to add the full stop (i.e. period) at the end. The correct form would be "Connix sported blonde buns and a junior controller's uniform" or "Connix, sporting her blonde buns and a junior controller's uniform, was a Resistance officer during the Starkiller crisis."

Frankly, I'm not interested in having an edit war over one image, but both DarthRuiz and I feel that the article was better off while you're the only one resetting it back to the way you recently edited it. In the future, please take whatever disagreements you have to the talk page of the user or article in question as you are close to violating the three revert rule. JRT2010 (talk) 04:55, January 11, 2018 (UTC)

  • I took the disagreements I had to your talk page and you didn't respond for an extended amount of time. I gave you an extended explanation about exactly how the sentence was grammatically correct and you have offered no other information concerning this other than saying I am wrong. If you think I am wrong please explain why you think that. I may be mistaken but if I am just telling me I am wrong without any explanation helps nothing. Also, it seems a bit hypocritical to mention the fact that I was close to violating the three revert rule as you also were reverting it to the way you thought it would be. Both parties engaging in an "edit war" are at fault. I am sorry that I didn't take my disagreements to the talk page sooner and will do so next time. I am sorry if I made you feel bad in anyway and apologize for any misunderstanding this may have caused. Have a wonderful day!--Benjay2345 () 19:13, January 11, 2018 (UTC)

Snoke's slippers


Hey Benjay, I hope I didn't come off as too harsh when I reverted you earlier. You were indeed correct about the article's original image, but if an article is {{Inuse}}, I highly recommend that you talk to the article's editor via his or her talk page to discuss issues rather than reverting him or her. In any case, I hope my expansion of Snoke's slippers brings warm feelings to your heart. :P JangFett 05:54, January 11, 2018 (UTC)

Delete


Don't just tag for delete if the image is on use in more than one page, you can look for it (As sometimes I do when this happens), ask the user who uploaded, leave a message on the image talk page. Help instead of just rushing--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 23:27, January 12, 2018 (UTC)

  • On the talk page for Phasma an admin already expressed interest in deleting the image. As I said before the way I did it I had seen done many times before without the warning so I did it that way but I'll do it the way you have suggested next time.--Benjay2345 () 23:29, January 12, 2018 (UTC)

You have been blocked from contributing for 2 hours for persistent edit-warring, a violation of Wookieepedia's 3RR policy.

  • Whoops sorry. Didn't mean to do that. I've fixed it. Just curious why did you intervene in that thread saying that it was way more overblown than it needs to be. Its not really your decision what I invoke the Story Group over. I was just curious why you intervened in the thread. I was honestly just curious of their thematic intentions concerning the duel. --Benjay2345 () 09:21, January 14, 2018 (UTC)

Solo poster


Hi Benjay, you need to add a reliable source for that image, so far that person is not a source because it doesn't seems to work with Lucasfilm, Disney, fan sites, etc. You need a good source or something that says that poster was scanned or how he got it--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 20:46, January 15, 2018 (UTC)

No is not an improvement, you got the idea that a "higher"/larger quality is better for infoboxes, the film screenshot is better since its has a more clear shot of her face plus is looking to the front a requirement for infobox pictures. She's not even looking in front that picture plus is blurry, that image would be better for the P&T section, not the infobox. --DarthRuiz30 (talk) 02:18, February 23, 2018 (UTC)

Duel on Mustafar


I'm not sure why there's any need to change the image, its been there since 2015. I'm also not quite sure what you mean, the image you're adding comes from a legends source and makes no mention about a poster --Lewisr (talk) 18:26, April 19, 2018 (UTC)

  • If you look at the bottom of the theatrical poster for ROTS (which is canon) there image of Anakin and Obi-Wan is clearly sourced from the image in question. My question is, if a canon image uses an image from a legends source as reference shouldn't that canonize the image itself? And as for changing the image its a much better infobox image as it clearly shows the duel.--Benjay2345 () 00:56, April 20, 2018 (UTC)

User image policy


Please be advised that although the general image policy specifies that uploads for article use should be of the highest quality available, the user image policy specifies that the total file size of userpage images cannot exceed 500 kilobytes. You have uploaded a user image that exceeds this limit by more than ten times, thus it has been deleted per policy. You may reupload your user image once this is corrected. -- Darth Culator 00:13, October 19, 2018 (UTC)

Lightsaber duels


Look through the history before you keep reverting, it was deleted 3 times before so why all of a sudden would it be okay to keep now? I don't care about the Luke/Kylo thing, that has nothing to do with anything, there's a category for duels so its already redundant to list every single one --Lewisr (talk) 20:54, January 8, 2019 (UTC)

  • The fact that multiple people keep reverting it shows that there is disagreement among the masses about it. I suggested you bring it the talk page before changing it which would be the proper thing to do. Figure out what the masses on here what rather than just editing to what you think should be. Not trying to be rude, just think taking it to the talk page which be a much more mature way of handling it.--Benjay2345 () 20:56, January 8, 2019 (UTC)

I'll let you know, that you're the only one that want it to change. There's no need to add the other one, that one VF image looks perfectly fine and its better for the infobox. In all cases, you're the one that needs to take it to the talk page.--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 07:46, July 20, 2019 (UTC)

  • First of all, you have never brought it up on the talk page so you wouldn't know if I'm the only one who wants it as that image. And no I don't need to bring it up on a talk page because the image I reverted it to is the image of old Lando that was originally used in the infobox. To change it you should have brought it up on the talk page.Why would we want to use as low of quality of image as that Vanity Fair one for the infobox? Also, see comment above on my talk page by Brandon Rhea in section "Vanity Fair Photos" where he explicitly states that low quality Vanity Fair images should not be used and should be taken as photos of the actors not the characters. The only time this is allowed is when no higher quality image exists or when no other image of the character exists (such as Pryde or Zorri Bliss). --Benjay2345 () 07:49, July 20, 2019 (UTC)

As you can see here, here and here, I've done this for several users, its not my fault that you did the same thing. The Jedi-Bibliothek thing is how I've enforced several times, so don't believe that's a "Personal" thing, not my fault that you see it that way. Just because something exists already like that, it doesn't mean that it should continue to be done like that. You think that because someone added fanon years ago, and hasn't been discovered, someone should continue to do it today? I know that Jedi-Bibliothek exists, I follow them, but that doesn't make me go immediately and grab the image, I know that in two or one day Penguin Random House will update their website and add the image. So don't think that its something unique that if we don't get it now its going to dissapear. The cover is fine, it can be used for the meantime while an official source updates their website. "You are going to make it where contributors like myself won't want to contribute", that's up to you, I'm just enforcing the rule how I've done it for several times--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 01:21, July 22, 2019 (UTC)

  • The reason people tend to use Jedi Bibliotek and why it has been allowed before is because they tend to have much higher quality images of the covers. There shouldn't be anything wrong with adding it as a source (and in fact many times people have gotten reverted for not putting the exact source of the higher quality image). To me it seems like you are enforcing this rule (a rule that's been played fast and loose) just for the sake of enforcing the rule. That goes back to the "flashing your admin badge" that we had discussed before lol. Is there actual any rule that specifically states we can't use Jedi Bibliotek? Also, wouldn't it be nice to add that source to the image just so its 100 percent known where the higher quality version of the image originated?--Benjay2345 () 01:27, July 22, 2019 (UTC)

Hey Benjay, can you please update the info on to match your crop? You uploaded a new version but the info on the file page still reflects my upload, which is reflective of what's on SW.com. So not entirely sure where yours came from or what it's reflective of. Thanks. - Brandon Rhea 05:41, November 16, 2019 (UTC)

Cropping


You need to stop cropping images because you believe they need to be cropped. I know how to properly crop an image, as I have been editing on Wookieepedia over 4x longer than you have. Regarding the Leia image, her head is perfectly centered if you take the edge of her hair on the left and right to the edge of the image. Her face is turned slightly so her nose is not dead center, and it doesn't need to be. - JMAS 03:22, January 2, 2020 (UTC)

I don't see either of these rules here: https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Wookieepedia:Images#Filenames so I'm just curious how I or anyone else would have known the parentheses rule?

Luke Skywalker image


This image was voted on by the community exactly as it is for the infobox. It was selected over a tighter cropped version of the same image. - JMAS 18:51, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

  • Hey, was just about to message you, didn't see that before. Sorry about that! I have one more question about that image. If you look at it closely Luke's head is not centered in the image which (for an image that doesn't follow the rule of thirds either) would be ideal. Do you think it would be okay to slightly crop it so that his nose/head is centered in the image. The way it is now makes it look off-center at first glance. Again, no biggie, just curious Benjay2345 () 18:56, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
