Forums > Senate Hall archive > SH:Yord, Jecki and Torbin lightsaber pages
I was wondering whether to create articles for Yord, Jecki and Torbin's lightsabers. Despite not having databank pages of their own, I feel these lightsabers are notable enough to have their own articles, especially Yord's in particular due to its heavy use in the show. Feel free to discuss below. Kyle03 (talk) 21:41, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

- Firstly, thanks for looking to contribute to Wook. Secondly, please keep in mind that Senate Hall is merely for discussion, not voting—nothing discussed in the SH is particularly binding. The forum for votes is the Consensus track—though article creation should usually not be voted on anyway. As for the topic in question, unless their lightsabers are given noted plot significance beyond just being used, have some lore provided by a source, or are explicitly identified in some form, we generally refrain from making lightsaber articles. That being said, WP:BOLD. If you feel they work as articles, you are welcome to create them. Just keep in mind that they may be subject to a deletion vote via the Trash compactor. - Thannus (DFaceG) (he/him) (talk) 22:03, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
- While your contributions are welcome and appreciated nonetheless, I apologize if the tone of the start of my message was at all demeaning; I hadn't looked at your userpage so I briefly thought you were a newer editor. The rest of my message regarding SH/CT use and WP:Bold stands though. - Thannus (DFaceG) (he/him) (talk) 22:05, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for your reply. Would you say it's best to wait for these lightsabers to get some official identification or reference before creating these articles then? Many thanks. Kyle03 (talk) 22:41, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
- Not at all. If the subjects in question are prominent enough, there is nothing wrong in creating articles for them. Just remember to slap the {{Conjecture}} template at the top. Bonzane10
