Serraknife (talk - history - links - logs)

This article is based on complete speculation. Having a Serraknife Battalion is not grounds for having a Serraknife article unless the weapon is explicitly referred referred to apart from the squadron's name. - JMAS Jolly Trooper Hey, it's me! 03:55, February 28, 2011 (UTC)

Keep

  1. I figure the creator of the article is allowed to vote here, since I see no rule against it. There is no speculation in the article; Knight Errant (novel) states that the battalions of Rusher's Brigade were named after weapons. Since Serraknife Battalion is a part of the brigade, there is thus a weapon called the serraknife. Axinal Convocation Chamber 03:58, February 28, 2011 (UTC)
  2. That quote from the novel is enough proof for me. Menkooroo 15:29, February 28, 2011 (UTC)
  3. Per Axinal. Graestan(Talk) 15:38, February 28, 2011 (UTC)
  4. OK, now that that confirmation is there. I'm OK to keep it. And I also see it is in a Bts section of the article, which wasn't present when I started he TC. - JMAS Jolly Trooper Hey, it's me! 15:40, February 28, 2011 (UTC)

Comments

  • Could someone give the exact quote from the Knight Errant novel that states that every single battalion in the brigade is named after an actual weapon? If so, I'll be inclined to vote keep. Jonjedigrandmaster (Talk) 04:08, February 28, 2011 (UTC)
    • Unless someone can get it before me, I'll definitely have it within the next twelve hours. Axinal Convocation Chamber 04:11, February 28, 2011 (UTC)
    • On page 107, the narrative says: "One by one, all eight battalions—all named for the exotic ancient weapons etched on their helmets—checked in." Thus, Zhaboka Battalion is named after the zhaboka, Sat'skar Battalion is named after the sat'skar, Serraknife Battalion is named after the serraknife, etc. The only difference is that the serraknife hasn't appeared in a previous source, while all the other weapons have. But based on that passage, we can say with absolute certainty that the serraknife exists in canon. Axinal Convocation Chamber 15:28, February 28, 2011 (UTC)
