Talk: Maguinic

Hey, Maguinic. In response to your question, there could be several problems with your image uploading. Most likely, it's because you're a new user. If you stick around for a few days and make some constructive edits, it should straighten out. If not, let me know, and I'll look into it further. Cheers.—Cal Jedi 23:32, October 4, 2012 (UTC)

• Unfortunately, your problem is most likely related with Wikia's function, not something that an admin can change. It's not a particular "status" that you obtain, so it's not something that an admin can "grant you." Making the edits and waiting the required days is signifying that you're an "actual" user for Wikia. I'm afraid there isn't really anything more I can do for you in that respect. If I were you, I'd askDarth Culator, who knows much more about images and such. Hope it all gets resolved. Cheers.—Cal Jedi 02:31, October 7, 2012 (UTC)

It's nice to see another "image junkie" like myself. A couple tips I would like to offer from a long-time user. If you replace an existing image in an article, with an image you uploaded, first ensure that the image you are replacing is in use in another article somewhere else. If it is not, then the image you are replacing it with should be of higher quality than the image you are relegating to deletion. I know some Wikis out there overstuff their articles with images for every paragraph. Not so here, so keep that in mind. This last one was probably the hardest lesson I had to learn when I started here. ;) - JMAS 17:04, February 17, 2013 (UTC)

• Indeed, I love me too upload images to enlarge the database (already huge!) of this wonderful Star Wars encyclopedia. I think that images play a very important role in the pages of the Wiki. And thank you for all these tips, I will try to respect it, what I'm trying to do already! And sorry for the late reply, I had not noticed that you sent me a message, I'm not yet totally familiar with the Wiki ^^ Maguinic () 15:23, March 3, 2013 (UTC)

Hey, I took a look at the section on the Aayla Secura page. Nice work. I corrected some of the grammer but I have a few comments and questions. I'm not familiar with the story, so what exactly do you mean that Vos was "infiltrating near Dooku"? I think something other than "near" would work better, but I don't actually know what happened. Also, strange english thing but we say that the Jedi "fell to the dark side" instead of "switched to the dark side." Even though fall literally means "tomber" in french. In english, in this context, it means they switched to the dark side. Serafina360 23:54, February 13, 2013 (UTC)

• You could try saying that "he was infiltrating the seperatists to spy on Dooku." Serafina360 17:04, February 16, 2013 (UTC)

Nice work on adding those images.—Jedi Kasra 21:42, March 7, 2013 (UTC)

I noticed on the Nightsister article you put a period at the end of all the captions. It was determined some time ago as a community that periods should only be used at the end of an image thumbnail caption if it is a complete sentence. Just so you know for future editing. :) On another note, do you know of a list of all artists who have contributed to the FFG TCG? - JMAS 18:50, June 24, 2013 (UTC)

• Thank you for the clarification, I'll no add period at the end of the captions in this case. And I actually have an almost complete list of artists who contributed to the TCG cards. Do you want it ? Maguinic () 08:43, June 25, 2013 (UTC)

OK, I have to know where you found in such high resolution. It definitely wasn't from the low res PDF rule rulebook linked to on the file page, and I can't find it on the artist's blog. - JMAS 21:45, October 7, 2013 (UTC)

• I just found it on a forum : [1] I don't remember how I found it here... Maguinic () 16:32, October 8, 2013 (UTC)

Hey Maguinic; the images aren't from any website as they are direct scans from the cards themselves. - Sir Cavalier of One 08:08, July 1, 2013 (UTC)

Bonjour Maguinic, je te contacte car tu semble être l'un des contributeurs francophones de Wookieepedia. Je voulais te faire part de l'existence de Wookiepédia_fr, la "version en français" de ce wiki et par la même occasion t'inviter à venir nous donner un coup de main si le cœur t'en dit :) (création, traduction, organisation...) Ton expérience sur Wookieepedia nous serait d'un grand secours ! A bientôt j'espère Trazeris (talk) 14:41, July 3, 2013 (UTC)

• Salut Trazeris.J'ai déjà été actif sur le wiki français par le passé, mais je l'ai rapidement abandonné de part son manque d'activité. Ce wiki-ci est non seulement actif, mais il me permet également de travailler mon anglais. Mais si j'ai un peu de temps libre, je ne manquerai pas de faire un petit tour côté français ;) Maguinic () 06:25, July 4, 2013 (UTC)

Hello. Can you tell, where do you get SWGTCG cards images? 10:45, July 17, 2013 (UTC)

• I get most of them through the Star Wars Galaxies Memory Book, you can download it here : [2]Maguinic () 20:08, July 17, 2013 (UTC)

On all the images you are uploading from The Price of Victory, you are putting the file name as PotV which makes no sense. I'd recommend either just using PoV or tPoV so it's accurate. :) - JMAS 16:54, September 11, 2013 (UTC)

• Ok, well done, thank you for pointing that out. I don't know why, but for me it was "Price of the Victory"... In any case, thank you to upload new versions of images after me ;) Maguinic () 17:20, September 11, 2013 (UTC)

Hey, Maguinic. I noticed that you attribute certain artists to images—for instance, Anthony Foti for the Edge of the Empire Mathus.jpg image—without including a link to the actual location the image is attributed. I am unable to locate a specific source that can verify that Tony painted this (and his signature is not on the image itself). Can you please provide those links and insert them, as I have done in ? Thanks. —Gethralkin 18:29, August 25, 2013 (UTC)

I noticed that you added a gallery to the Swamptrooper article. Through many different CTs and votes, it has been determined that gallery come very close to violating "fair use" copyright laws. Therefore, galleries are not allowed on user pages, nor are they generally allowed in regular articles either, except in very rare cases. Just wanted to let you know why I removed that gallery. - JMAS 16:37, September 18, 2013 (UTC)

• I created this gallery on the Swamptrooper article several months ago because I had seen one on a similar page (that you have also modified again). And if I have a sort of "gallery" on my profile, it's to protect the images and prevent them from being deleted. I find it a pity to delete images (even if they are official) under the pretext that they aren't used. Now I'll have to find them a new location... Maguinic () 16:51, September 18, 2013 (UTC)

Do you have a the Star Wars: The Card Game Tournament Rules PDF in High Res? - JMAS 06:30, October 14, 2013 (UTC)

• Yes of course, I've found it in high resolution... But in Polish. If you want the link : [3]Maguinic () 18:10, October 14, 2013 (UTC)

Salut à toi, Maguinic ! Histoire que tu n'ailles pas imaginer que je te snobbes, je te signale ici que j'ai répondu à ta question par mail. ;-) --LelalMekha (talk) 19:18, October 15, 2013 (UTC)

• Toujours heureux de bavarder un peu avec les francophones du coin. Soit dit en passant, c'est vrai que cette illustration est superbe, même si je trouve que Bail n'a pas assez vieilli en près de vingt ans ! :-p Une chose est sûre, en tout cas, c'est que Magali Villeneuve a vraiment la cote en ce moment. --LelalMekha (talk) 20:12, October 15, 2013 (UTC)

Hey Maguinic. Just to let you know that this image you uploaded likely depicts a laser trip mine instead of a proximity mine. Maybe the source got them mixed up. Cheers. Stake black 18:01, November 27, 2013 (UTC)

Hey Maguinic, do you still need File:Storm Commando Gunner-TotC.jpg? If so, an administrator can always rename the image. Instead of tagging it for deletion, you can use {{FTBR}}. If you don't need it, then I'll go ahead and delete the image. JangFett 16:56, December 22, 2013 (UTC)

Maguinic, it is forbidden by Wookieepedia policy to maintain galleries on your user page just for the sake of keeping the images. Not every image on the site has to be used; that's why we have the unused images deletion. Please do not continue to try and save such images by storing them on your userpage. Thank you. Cade Calrayn 15:35, February 19, 2014 (UTC)

Hi there Maguinic. I suggest you take the image issue to the talk page and start a vote, to avoid an edit war. Cheers. Stake black 18:54, March 28, 2014 (UTC)

• Not worth it, I found a page where to put the picture, but thank you for the advice, I'll think about it in the future ;) Maguinic () 17:29, March 30, 2014 (UTC)

Hi, I've been fixing up the Star Wars: Republic Commando articles, including redirects. I noticed that you uploaded the attached image and listed the source as the game, but in no point in the game do you see youself from the third person — the image depicts all four commandos. Just wondering if it was indeed the game the image came from or from promo art, the Star Wars: Republic Commando: Prima Official Game Guide or somewhere else? Please leave a message for me on my talk page, thanks! Manoof (talk) 11:35, April 11, 2014 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for the reply! I've found some code that allows you to play 3rd person perspective, but the skin of the player's clone is a plain dark grey colour. I've tried it on a few levels and it is always the same. I did find a game mod site that does include the Boss skin, but as that is not part of the game itself, i'll note that on the image and will later put it in a section where i talk about people modding the game :) Manoof (talk) 08:08, April 15, 2014 (UTC)

Hi Maguinic. What program did you use to retouch the enraged ronto image and get rid of the background? I think it's really nice!--Richterbelmont10 16:58, May 19, 2014 (UTC)
