If you are a requester:
Articles from time to time lose the wiki syntax they (hopefully) had when they were first created. When you notice such an article, add the "[[Category:Wikify]]" so we can go back and fix broken links, etc.
If you are an editor:
To wikify, go through the article tidying wiki-syntactical errors, broken links and adding missing links where appropriate. When your work on that article is complete remove the "[[Category:Wikify]]" tag from the article.

To wookify is to modify an article that was copied from Wikipedia (cfw) so that it fits better on Wookieepedia. The term wookieefication, also spelled wookification, can also mean to wookify.
There are many aspects to this task, as listed below.

Star Wars articles that are on Wikipedia will begin with statements indicating that they are from the Star Wars universe. When these articles are copied to the Star Wars Wiki, such statements become unnecessary and should be removed. Take for example, the opening line of Wikipedia:Chewbacca:
This can, and should, be cut down to:
Sometimes this can be made more difficult by the fact that an article will start with a "This is from Star Wars" statement, and then the next sentence starts a paragraph full of spoilers. Such articles will need the beginnings to be slightly rewritten in order to give a non-spoiler introduction.
A list of articles containing statements that they are from the Star Wars universe can be found by clicking here.
As less Wikipedia articles were copied and more articles on Wookieepedia were made from scratch, the concept of Wookification now applies to creating appearances and sources sections, and adding categories.
