The result of the debate was no consensus, likely due to inertia on the part of many who voted before the merge option was introduced; closed in the spirit of the final bullet point at Wookieepedia:Consensus#Trash_compactor and immediately reopened at Forum:TC:Artificial organ for a fresh set of votes. —MJ— Jedi Council Chambers 22:46, August 12, 2014 (UTC)

  1. That they seem to be organic organs rather than machines, I think it differentiates from real life enough to keep. Doctor Kermit(Complain.) 19:56, July 22, 2014 (UTC)
    • Organic articifial organs are being researched in real life, and apparently a couple years off to reality. So not so unique to star wars... Manoof (talk) 12:05, July 24, 2014 (UTC)
    • The article mentions a DD-13 medical assistant droid, whose "primary purpose was the installation of cybernetic implants", so the organs were likely still cybernetic. Stating otherwise is pretty much speculation. Trip391 (talk) 00:14, July 30, 2014 (UTC)

  • I think it would be appropriate to turn this into a redirect to Cybernetics. I'm hesitant to delete this because it's more quantifiable than something as generic as voice recognition, for example, but it probably doesn't need its own article either, so I figure redirect is a fair middle ground here.

  1. The bit about blood and force sensitives warrants a keep from me. Doctor Kermit(Complain.) 19:56, July 22, 2014 (UTC)
    • As it was said above, that might be more appropriate for the Force-sensitivity article. Because while the fact that transfusing Force-sensitive blood doesn't transfer Force-sensitivity is notable, it's not accomplished differently in Star Wars than in real life. Trip391 (talk) 00:30, July 30, 2014 (UTC)
  2. <-Omicron(Leave a message at the BEEP!) 14:06, July 23, 2014 (UTC)
  3. I think there was something about blood transfusions in Red Harvest, but I haven't read it for years... Either way as per Kermie Manoof (talk) 12:05, July 24, 2014 (UTC)
    • The phrase blood transfusion doesn't appear in Red Harvest. Trip391 (talk) 00:30, July 30, 2014 (UTC)
      • Maybe, but it does appear, I just re-read it - Darth Scabrous uses a backpack-mounted IV set-up to stop himself turning into a zombie. If something describes darth vader's suit (visually or in text) then we don't go "hmmmm... it COULD be vader, but maybe someone else is wearing it. since we don't know we won't worry about it". we assume it is vader. Scabrous had blood infused into him via IV, which is a blood transfusion, even if it was his own blood. Manoof (talk) 04:08, August 4, 2014 (UTC)

Discussion

  • Had to remove part of the article as this is all that is mentioned of blood transfusions in Darth Plagueis: "Research had long ago established that blood transfusions from Force-sensitive individuals did not confer Force powers to recipients, though blood with a high midi-chlorian count could grant temporary strength and resiliency. " The other bit was purely OOU common knowledge not stated in the source. Trip391 (talk) 02:33, August 4, 2014 (UTC)
