March 4, starwars.fandom.com—Twenty years ago, Star Wars fans were eagerly awaiting the REVENGE OF THE SITH, exploring the depths of Nar Shaddaa in the KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC II, and beginning to build WOOKIEEPEDIA—the Star Wars wiki. As an ever-growing community of volunteers, the Wookieepedia project now celebrates its 20th year.
Our encyclopedia officially reached 200,000 articles in February, 2025. This was only possible with the work of hundreds upon hundreds of fans over the past twenty years. Most Wookieepedians started off editing with little to no writing or coding experience, but our efforts have brought us closer to the goal of creating the most accurate, comprehensive, and well-presented resource about all things Star Wars.
Since Wookieepedia's tenth anniversary in 2015, we have expanded the breadth, depth, and quality of our documentation of both the Star Wars Legends and the new canon continuities, as well as coverage of Star Wars media and production behind the scenes. Wookieepedia has also been building a more friendly and welcoming community. Informed by our contributors' experiences, we have launched ongoing efforts in revamping our policies to be clearer and more fair, improving accessibility, and developing new editing tutorials.
Since 2015, editor recruitment has advanced on Wookieepedia, with the great majority of the current administrators and review board members having joined those groups in recent years. The past ten years has also seen the progress of the Discussions forum and the launch of twenty-two new collaborative WookieeProjects. These include the Project Stardust initiative focusing on essential topics and Project Pride's efforts to improve the wiki's coverage of LGBTQIA+ topics. Most external links on Wookieepedia now have backup archival links to keep a better record of the ever-changing Internet, and bot systems have automated many monotonous site maintenance tasks such as page archivals for the status article peer review system.
Our work continues unabated. Thousands more pages need to be created, lack citations, await expansion, and could use more images. All the while, the franchise continues to grow and require updates. As we enter our third decade, we would love for more readers to join our ranks! May the Force be with us in the next twenty years… ✨
Teroj Kee was a Keteerian male who worked as a First Order operative. For several years, he pretended to work for the Mining Guild while trying to steal from the Office of Acquisitions on the supertanker fuel depot Colossus, but was thwarted by the store's owners, Flix and Orka. Eventually, when the store acquired a rare and expensive phase connector used for deep mining, Commander Pyre hired Kee to take it from the store. After monitoring comm chatter from the shop owners in order to determine when they would be away, Kee visited the store on a day in 34 ABY when they were away visiting Flix's mother. However, Kazuda Xiono, the mechanic the pair had left in charge of the Office of Acquisitions, refused to sell Kee the store's phase connector.
Kee instead placed another delivery order with the store, and when Xiono delivered it to loading dock 23, the First Order operative trapped him in the dock's storage container and left to steal the device. Despite a brief skirmish with Xiono's astromech droid BB-8, Kee successfully took the phase connector from the Office of Acquisitions' back room and brought it aboard his freighter. Xiono, along with Flix and Orka's pet gorg, Bitey, pursued him aboard the ship to try to take the device back. After Bitey bit through the freighter's electrical wiring, Kee's ship—and the phase connector—plunged into the planet Castilon's oceans, though Kee, Xiono, Bitey, and several stormtroopers safely fled via escape pods. Following the botched endeavor, Kee reported his failure to Pyre. (Read more…)
