Incident on Tatooine (talk - history - links - logs)

I am not an expert but is this article really necessary? It seems like the article would cover stuff that is really already covered in other sections. Also, where are the casualties? It says that the "Various independent factions" had "heavy casualties" is this part of the video games or related to the behind the scenes catagoy. Sorry if it seems like i'm beating a dead horse but this article doesn't seem needed to me. Sorry if it is and i'm missing something i'm still learning Maybe the article could be deleated and the behind the scenes moved to the article about the game? —Unsigned comment by Jedi Master King (talk • contribs)

  1. I'm all for hyperinclusionism, but this isn't really a single incident, per se. I could be persuaded otherwise with a compelling argument. Atarumaster88 Jedi Order (Talk page) 19:31, January 9, 2012 (UTC)
  2. Per Ataru. The duel and the Podrace should be covered in their own articles, which already exist, and the other stuff that this is supposed to cover is too ordinary to warrant an event article. Master Jon (Council Chambers) Tuesday, January 10, 2012, 18:00 UTC

  4. Eh... no. Darth Trayus(Trayus Academy) 02:47, January 20, 2012 (UTC)
  5. Pretty much per Ataru. Jonjedigrandmaster (Talk) 16:24, January 20, 2012 (UTC)

Keep

  1. There are a number of events surrounding Jinn's/Maul's duel that can be incorporated into this article, such as an entire chapter from Star Wars: Obi-Wan—the one where the titular character must rescue Amidala from Tusken Raiders.

  2. It needs some serious work all right. However, I don't think we should delete it. I think it just needs some expansion and cleanup and it'll be good.—Cal JediInfinite Empire (Personal Comm Channel) 14:54, January 10, 2012 (UTC)
  3. It's a mess, indeed. But once again I have to say that we can't delete all messy articles. (Otherwise there would be no TCW :P) Clone Commander Lee Talk 15:00, January 10, 2012 (UTC)
    • Wow, this is a crappy article, but I feel the finding of the Chosen One, his bringing into the Jedi Order, the discovery of the presence of the Sith, and the first sign of a romance between Padmé and Anakin are several reasons this event is too important to delete.

      • Sorry. Misunderstood what this was really about. lol The article wasn't very clear...obviously. I'll ponder on this a little more. :P MasterFredCommerce Guild(Whatever) 16:48, January 18, 2012 (UTC)
  4. I'm not sure if the name is quite right, but I believe this article is worthy enough to be kept.--Exiled Jedi Oldrepublic crest (Greetings) 18:15, January 21, 2012 (UTC)
  5. Seems like there's enough stuff in the video games to justify keeping this. I'd rather see the desert duel article folded into this one, to be honest. Menkooroo 04:17, January 23, 2012 (UTC)

Discussion

I agree if we can fix it up it should be kept otherwise couldn't the behind the scenes part be added to TPM video game summary?--JediMasterKing'Jedi symbol (Personal Temple Comm Channel) 23:47, January 10, 2012 (UTC)
