This page is an archive of the Trash compactor discussion about the future of Wookieepedia's coverage of the topic(s) listed below, including whether or not to delete or redirect the relevant page(s). This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the relevant talk pages or in the Senate Hall forum rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was Delete all. Exiled Jedi (talk) 22:14, September 17, 2015 (UTC)

After nine solid rounds of Return of the Jedi unidentifieds, we move on to The Empire Strikes Back. There are very few unidentified character articles for ESB, so I expect this to be the only forum for this film. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 19:40, September 3, 2015 (UTC)

Unidentified stormtrooper (Cloud City) (history - links - logs - delete - protect)

This article was previously nominated for deletion way back when in the early days of Wookieepedia. It was kept by default via no consensus, so, for the record, we're under no constraints to compile a certain number of participating votes in order to overturn an earlier decision.

Unidentified female Rebel technician (history - links - logs - delete - protect)

We've established definitively in the Return of the Jedi unidentified TCs that otherwise un-notable characters do not become notable simply by virtue of an actor credit. Plus, who's to say this isn't just Toryn Farr? This "other" female Echo Base technician was never addressed in any sources, and it wouldn't be the first time two actors played one character.

  • Update: The Official Star Wars Fact File 12 does indeed identify this other female Rebel technician as Toryn Farr. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 22:25, September 11, 2015 (UTC)

Unidentified Rebel pilot (Hoth) (history - links - logs - delete - protect)

This is the one Rebel pilot in the Echo Base briefing scene who wasn't given a name through the Rogues Gallery feature in Star Wars Insider. User:JMM created unidentified articles for all of the pilots in that scene in anticipation of the Insider release, and this is the one guy who was left hanging. We know from The Essential Guide to Warfare that he's not a Rogue Squadron member, which means he's just some random pilot with no context. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 19:40, September 3, 2015 (UTC)

  6. I'd almost say being the only one left unnamed is noteworthy, but it's not quite enough. Ayrehead02 (talk) 08:16, September 6, 2015 (UTC)
