| - Despite the major string of vandalism, the community as a whole was able to come together in July 2006 to participate in the First Star Wars Fanon Wiki Awards. Hosted by Darth Vacatour, a total of twenty awards were handed out to various users. During the same month, the Senate Hall, the Fanon Cantina and the Star Wars Fanon IRC channel were established by the members. In August 2006, StarNeptune was appointed by Wikia Staff to be the first Star Wars Fanon Administrator in order to help around the Wiki. Check user rights were also appointed, but only due to the heavy amount of vandalism. In October 2006, Jedi Master 76, C3PO the Dragon Slayer and Bub were also appointed to be Administrators. As the Wiki continued to grow in size and membership, the now-defunct Alliance of Fanon forum was established. In February 2007, much to the joy of the entire community, Star Wars Fanon was the featured Wikia Wiki. In April 2007, the community came together once again and held the Second Star Wars Fanon Wiki Awards. Hosted by Jasca Ducato, a total of twenty-seven awards were handed out to various users. Later that month, Jack Phoenix and Victor Dorantes were elected as Administrators. Throughout the months of 2007, numerous new policies were established. The Voting Policy, Video policy and the userbox policy were all created, as was the Clan Policy. There was some backlash from members regarding the banning of clans, but the policy remained intact. The Manual of Style, the Layout Guide and the Categorization Policy were also extensively rewritten in order to conform to and create a much higher standard of quality. Thousands of uncategorized articles were also deleted by the Administration. Two additional user groups were created to oversee the promotion of articles. The Decreton Lords, whose name was based on a rank in the Sith Order of Decreto, were created to oversee and handle the promotion of articles to Featured article status. Later, the High Priests, based on a rank in the Bendu Order, were created to oversee and handle the promotion of articles to Good article status. Four additional Administrators were elected by the community as a whole in two Administrative elections during the summer months. In June 2007, Wayne Lipman III and Jasca Ducato were elected by the community as Administrators. In September 2007, Brandon Rhea and Christian Ashley were also elected by the community as Administrators. There have been no further Administrative elections since the last election ended on September 1, 2007. Once again, the community as a whole came together in January and February of 2008 for the Third Star Wars Fanon Wiki Awards. Hosted by Brandon Rhea and Victor Dorantes, a total of twenty-three awards were handed out to various users. In July 2008, Gnosis is knowledge and Michaeldsuarez became Administrators after the resignations of Squishy Vic and Jedi Master 76. Star Wars Fanon is proud to currently have articles and uploaded files, as well as a consistent number of active users who contribute daily to make Star Wars Fanon a premier Wiki for fans of the Star Wars Saga to delve into the universe and use and express their vast imaginations.
