Osak Ahot (history - links - logs - delete - protect)

The article in questions covers a supposed character name that would appear on a specific mission terminal quest in SWG. The overall content is accurate (except it assumes the character to be a human male, which doesn't seem to be based off of anything), however, the character name itself was randomized, and therefore not canonical in any way. I double verified this by checking the game files for the "Help me..." quest. While some mission terminal quests did indeed use specific names, this particular one, and many others, left the name field blank, resulting in it being randomized. An argument could be made for moving this to something like Unidentified moisture farmer (Dune Sea), but I'm not sure if it's quite notable enough to warrant that, as I'm not sure the mission text itself offers much useful information on the person themself.

Keep and move to Unidentified moisture farmer (Dune Sea)

  1. Randomized name or no, this sounds like a distinct individual who did something notable. SorcererSupreme21 (talk) 09:27, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
  2. Like I say below, certainly sounds notable enough to me. Imperators II(Talk) 18:32, 4 December 2022 (UTC)

For added context, the files verify the mission title to be "Help me..." with the following mission prompt: "My family has lived on the edge of the Dune Sea for generations, and I can tell you that the creatures around here are getting bigger and meaner every year. I think they've lost their sense of fear, too. They keep coming closer and closer to my farm. One night soon, they're going to attack me and my children. I'm not very brave, but I'm hoping that you are. Brave enough to go kill some dangerous creatures, anyway." StarsiderSWG (talk) 03:26, 3 December 2022 (UTC)

  • This character definitely sounds notable enough to have an article of their own so the voting options on this thread should reflect that - one way to go about it is modify "Keep" to "Keep and move to [insert page title]". Imperators II(Talk) 09:46, 3 December 2022 (UTC)
    • Yeah, good point. Updated the voting option. StarsiderSWG (talk) 18:27, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
