Talk: Din Djarin

Mandalorian warrior

Yes, the series is named Mandalorian, but this guy hasn't been confirmed as a Mandalorian, or that its homeworld is Mandalore or is there something I'm missing? The guy could carry an armor and not be a Mandalorian. I think the title to this would be better Unidentified gunfighter, there we're using the description the synopsis used and just state for now that the guy used a Mando armor.--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 04:47, October 5, 2018 (UTC)

• I agree. Guess I jumped the gun....again as usual. LOL. Especially since rumor has it this might be Cobb Vanth.Jkirk8907 (talk) 04:57, October 5, 2018 (UTC)
  • Then yes, this needs to be moved until its confirmed that its really a Mando from Mandalore.--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 05:07, October 5, 2018 (UTC)
    • 100% disagreed. This is very pedantic. The title of the show is The Mandalorian. The description of the show clearly refers to a Mandalorian warrior who is a lone gunslinger. The first image that was released shows someone in Mandalorian armor. It's evidently obvious that the main character is a Mandalorian. To suggest that "another warrior emerges" and "The Mandalorian" and "a lone gunfighter" are different people flies in the face of all logical sentence construction about the show's description. - Brandon Rhea^(talk) 05:27, October 5, 2018 (UTC)
      • Cobb Vant, Boba, Jango all had Mando armor and they're not Mandos. Description is just about a gunfighter not a Mando, could it end up being a Mando yes, but its not something we know yet. --DarthRuiz30 (talk) 05:30, October 5, 2018 (UTC)
        • That ignores the entire structure of the description. It's a Mandalorian. This is obvious and passes the duck test. - Brandon Rhea^(talk) 05:31, October 5, 2018 (UTC)
          • Even the person who created this agree that he went ahead and named it Mando Warrior. If its a Mando at the end, then we move the page that would solve the problem.--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 05:34, October 5, 2018 (UTC)
            • I went ahead and removed some elements of the article that could be speculatory. Nonetheless, the fact that the creator of the article agrees with you doesn't really mean anything. The show description is referring to a Mandalorian warrior, and the page should not be moved. - Brandon Rhea^(talk) 05:37, October 5, 2018 (UTC)
              • That's what you think about the description. The fact of using Jango and Boba as an example, two non-Mandos, is enough to be aware that not every guy with that type of armor is a Mando. There's really not one issue with moving the page to the confirmed description instead of speculating here--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 05:47, October 5, 2018 (UTC)
                • It's pretty clear the description referring to Jango and Boba is just about marketing. Plus you have a track record of getting lost in being overly-specific to the point that you lose the big picture. If you disagree with me, appeal to Tope or another admin. - Brandon Rhea^(talk) 05:53, October 5, 2018 (UTC)
                  • I feel it was somewhat too early to create the page, as not much has actually been confirmed about the series, let alone the character itself. However, now that it exists, I don't think it should be deleted, so we'll just have to wait for more to be revealed. Zed42 (talk) 05:55, October 5, 2018 (UTC)
                    • I guess its settled now- Now that it is confirmed that Mandalorian isn't a race, it's a religion. —Unsigned comment by 70.135.138.3 (talk • contribs)

Name

The Launchpad article for Star Wars: The Mandalorian in Star Wars Insider 190 on page 7 identifies this character as the Mandalorian. Last I heard that magazine is treated as an official source, so do we consider that name for this character to be official or not? DarthRevan1173 (Long live Lord Revan) 21:40, June 23, 2019 (UTC)

• Yes its an official source but I'm not sure 'the Mandalorian' is an actual name for the character, at best its a nickname of sorts but not sure we need to add the 1stID template for it --Lewisr (talk) 21:46, June 23, 2019 (UTC)
  • Shouldn't the article then reflect that they accept it as his nickname then. I mean if they didn't accept it as his name or nickname then it wouldn't have that name for him in the article at all. DarthRevan1173 (Long live Lord Revan) 22:02, June 23, 2019 (UTC)
    • But that might not be the case, it might just be their way or referring to the character. Best to wait until we get nearer to release when things will become more clear --Lewisr (talk) 22:16, June 23, 2019 (UTC)
      • I believe the article should just be given the “conjecture” disclaimer RE his name. While I agree that this and other articles refer to the character using the same name as the series title. Yet, he is only called this as a placeholder for his real name which - in keeping with Western tropes - may never be revealed and the name itself may even be a spoiler. Within the series (as of chapter 1) he is frequently addressed as “Mandalorian” or “Mando”, but this is always as a generalization by outsiders and as a placeholder because they do not know his true name. If there were another Mandalorian within proximity, or among his own kind; I find it extremely unlikely that he would also be called “Mandalorian”. As a real-world example, others often call me “wheels” (because of my disability) even though that is clearly not my name. Therefore, I propose that his name should be used as follows) Mando & The Mandalorian should be listed as aliases. His main name should be “The Mandalorian” with an alias disclaimer. “The Mandalorian” should be the primary title for the page. A conjecture disclaimer should be added to the page. The Real Zam (talk) 21:06, November 13, 2019 (UTC)

Appearence

Why only three episodes? --Goodmind (talk) 06:08, November 9, 2019 (UTC)

• Only three episodes have been revealed, so only those three can be added to the appearances. Zed42 (talk) 06:09, November 9, 2019 (UTC)

Databank name

The Databank identifies this character as The Mandalorian. I'm not suggesting that's his actual name or even an official title (like The Grand Inquisitor), but I think his Databank profile is good enough to warrant moving the article to something like The Mandalorian (individual), given that Star Wars: The Mandalorian is already taken, unless we were to move that article to something like The Mandalorian (series) or Star Wars: The Mandalorian. JRT2010 (talk) 03:39, November 10, 2019 (UTC)

• Im game with moving it to The Mandalorian (Individual)--Jkirk8907 (talk) 04:39, November 10, 2019 (UTC)
  • I say we should wait until Tuesday and see what the series calls him. Since as you say, the name might not even an official title I don't see any reason of why that should be done.--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 04:49, November 10, 2019 (UTC)
    • I think the Databank is good enough, but now it's Tuesday and, not surprisingly, he's only referred to by the name of his people. At this point there's no reason to not change it to "The Mandalorian" when the article's current title is conjectural. JRT2010 (talk) 08:04, November 12, 2019 (UTC)
      • Per the naming policy, this page should be moved to Star Wars: The Mandalorian, and the show should be moved to another name. I think you should've waited for a wider consensus before moving anything. - Cwedin^(talk) 19:17, November 12, 2019 (UTC)
      • I agree with the name change, based on how he's referred to in show, Databank and other sources (such as the character's cards on SWCT and StarWars.com posts). As close to an official name as he's got, not conjecture and therefore what readers will most likely search if they want to find him. It'll be a fair bit of work to move the show itself to another title, but I think what we know so far supports this move. Toqgers (talk) 20:09, November 12, 2019 (UTC)
      • I agree with Cwedin. This article should be moved to the Mandalorian. In fact, I believe that the show's article Star Wars: The Mandalorian should actually be moved to Star Wars: The Mandalorian--Vitus Infinitus^Talk 20:43, November 12, 2019 (UTC)
        • The show is officially called The Mandalorian. I think it should just be renamed to The Mandalorian (TV series) and move this page to The Mandalorian. Reddyredcp (talk) 20:46, November 12, 2019 (UTC)
          • I'm fine with that as well.--Vitus Infinitus^Talk 20:47, November 12, 2019 (UTC)
      • I must disagree with Cwedin. Citing the same naming policy under “Specific Rules”: “Characters”: “Unidentified characters”, the Databank name should include some form of additional identifier. The Real Zam (talk) 21:30, November 13, 2019 (UTC)
• Given the Pedro Pascal interview earlier today in which he revealed that his character’s name is actually some phonetically identical spelling of “Dyn Jarren”, this argument may be rendered pointless in the near future. Consequently, we should keep the status quo until this is confirmed or denied. See The Mandalorian: Pedro Pascal Official TV Interview - Disney Plus on the ScreenSlam YouTube channel (backup link) The Real Zam (talk) 21:54, November 13, 2019 (UTC)
• I believe that this article should be moved to Dyn Jarren and be given the {{Conjecturespell}} template just like it was done for Dooku: Jedi Lost. The actor has said his character's name, that is official enough.--Vitus Infinitus^Talk 01:23, November 14, 2019 (UTC)
  • I agree. ProfessorTofty (talk) 15:25, November 14, 2019 (UTC)
    • I think in this case it's best that we leave it as it is now. Since no official sources have acknowledged the name I think it's safe to say it wasn't meant to have been publicly released at this point. Given that it's a rather major spoiler that can't be covered by the spoiler tag since it's the page name I don't see the need for us to rush into going with a conjectural spelling. If it's meant to be public then they'll soon verify the correct spelling and there's no harm in waiting until they do. Ayrehead02 (talk) 15:38, November 14, 2019 (UTC)
      • Good point, that sounds good to me!--Vitus Infinitus^Talk 17:38, November 14, 2019 (UTC)

Bounty specifics

I’m sure it’ll be a plot thread and relevant eventually, so if someone could add that the Mandalorian’s contract specified preferred alive in contrast to IG-11’s contract saying dead it might save some work down the line. —Unsigned comment by 203.40.60.219 (talk • contribs)

Real name

In this interview https://ew.com/tv/2019/11/14/pedro-pascal-reveals-the-mandalorian-real-name/ Pedro Pascal told the real name of the Mandalorian so we should move the site, right? CanePlayz (talk) 21:22, November 22, 2019 (UTC)

• As discussed above, we're going to wait until an official source provides a spelling for the name. Ayrehead02 (talk) 00:20, November 23, 2019 (UTC)
  • Ah sorry, I missed that. But yeah, that makes sense. CanePlayz (talk) 10:10, November 23, 2019 (UTC)

Western

Hello everyone, would the Mandalorian be considered a Western? Apparently, the fools on IMDB don't think it is!CowboyGeneral (talk) 17:01, November 24, 2019 (UTC)

• If you can find an official Disney or Lucasfilm source that identifies it as a Western then that can be added to the article. Ayrehead02 (talk) 17:24, November 24, 2019 (UTC)

Droid dislike added Personality and traits

It seems he has a disliking droids as evidenced in the first episode and how he treated the IG unit before he destroyed it. And it seems this stems from his awful experience with those super battle droids.--:SW-CanonDetailer01 (talk)SW-CanonDetailer01 16:03, November 28, 2019 (UTC)

Name reveal

Now that we know his name, should we change all instances of "The Mandalorian" to "Din Djarin?" RattsT (talk) 19:13, December 27, 2019 (UTC)

• Was wondering this myself. Plume Tray (talk) 12:36, January 11, 2020 (UTC)

Updated image

Shouldn't we update the profile image with one where he wears the full Beskar armor? --Castelgard (talk) 23:16, December 27, 2019 (UTC)

Alias

His Alias isn't "Mando." It's like saying my friend's name is "Christ" or "Hum" because he is a Christian or Human. to reference the StormTroopers who called the Mandolorian Armorer a "Mando." Anon 23:54 UTC

I agree. They are being called "Mando" because no one knows their name. If we keep this on there as his nickname, we need to go add "Jedi" to Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon, and Anakin at the very least for each time they were called that by characters who didn't know their names. GokūBlack10 (Talk) 00:45, December 28, 2019 (UTC)

Death Watch

Does anybody know why the hell Death Watch would be fighting against the separatists??? —Unsigned comment by 73.114.162.150 (talk • contribs)

• The stuff between Dooku and Pre Vizsla maybe? --Lewisr (talk) 02:35, January 2, 2020 (UTC)

Image update

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/393663001607274496/662587543119986699/Din_Djarin.png Would this be acceptable image update for Din, this contains his updated appearance from episode 4 of Star Wars: The Mandalorian. (AtlantisUchiha (talk) 09:28, January 3, 2020 (UTC))

Armor

The Mandalorian was left with his Shoretrooper gauntlets and durasteel greaves as his only non-beskar armor pieces.

It looks to me like only the right greave is durasteel. The left one looks like the rest of his beskar armor. --Revan's Exile (talk) 15:23, January 13, 2020 (UTC)

The Great Purge

I thought the Great Purge occurred after the Fall Of The Republic?--Movieman34 (talk) 20:20, September 27, 2020 (UTC)

Infobox Image

Right now, the image in the infobox is of Djarin with his helmet on. In Chapter 8: Redemption, his helmet is taken off, and we can see his face. Shouldn't an image of his actual face be used, like in Jango Fett's page or clone trooper pages? 141.156.92.198 14:00, 2 November 2020 (UTC)

• That shot of his face isn't very suitable for an infobox image. If there's a better shot in a future episode, we'll use it for sure. UberSoldat93 (talk) 14:17, 2 November 2020 (UTC)

Infobox Image

Wookieepedia has never shied away from spoilers, so I do think we have a better infobox image now from Chapter 15: The Believer

Whoever wrote this, I believe they are right. What do more-often-active editors think? Juraj103 (talk) 08:18, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

I apologize for the lack of formatting, I decided to make an account today so I could contribute to Wookieepedia. The first statement in this topic is mine, but I agree with Juraj103 on additional input from more experienced editors. One specific image I considered fitting, although he is wearing Imperial armor, could not be added because the external link was unverified and I am a new user. It's probably the best view we get of his face, although I do not think it necessarily represents the character very well. EthSch13 (talk) 17:30, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

I cannot yet add images to Wookieepedia, so it would be great if someone else could find a suitable infobox image from Chapter 15. EthSch13 (talk) 13:05, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

We have a clear shot of him unmasked in the latest episode. Anyone got a screenshot? --Potsk (talk) 12:34, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

The Rescue

Throughout every section of his biography, how come nobody added in a new paragraph about him and everything he did in "The Rescue"? There really should be. Rocket Retro Reed (talk) 20:46, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

• Feel free to do so. VergenceScatter (talk) 20:47, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
  • I mean like I said, every time I talk within an article, asking questions about new additional edits, not only do I mean that I would make them myself, I also (mainly) mean that I need help because I'm not always good at everything. I felt this way through my old account too. Rocket Retro Reed (talk) 20:51, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
    • If you need help, you should ask specific questions about the things you need help with, rather than just asking why no one has done something yet. Is there anything in particular that I can help you with? VergenceScatter (talk) 20:55, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
    • Essentially no one had yet gotten round to doing it, Vergence has made a start on it though --Lewisr (talk) 21:06, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
      • Yeah, because I asked him to. Rocket Retro Reed (talk) 21:08, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
        • Then all that needs doing is just expanding on the section --Lewisr (talk) 21:13, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
          • Right, which can happen anytime. Rocket Retro Reed (talk) 22:28, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

I vote Mando!

I vote Din Djarin to be the Star Wars Character of the year. He is so cool and . . . I don't want to spoil anything for people who didn't watch the whole series, but to those who watched the whole series, you know all he did for Grogu. Mando deserves this one.

stop deleting sofe im trying to find a pictur shes in mandalor —Unsigned comment by Starwarsfan4547456 (talk • contribs)

First sign your entries on talk pages. Second you have to use English that is a thousand times better, that level will never be accepted. Third you never link to an image of a character you link to that's characters article on here. Revan's Exile (talk) 13:23, 8 March 2021 (UTC)

So about that article picture

This is probably a matter of personal opinion, but does anyone else think that the article picture really doesn't show Din at his best? As in, Pedro Pascal is a hella handsome guy (And thus, so is Din), but this article seems to use one of the few frames where the perspective/angle makes him look chubbier and older than he is.

Just a nitpick, I suppose, but wouldn't an article pic for such an important character warrant something... better?

Din and Pedro aren't young men. Pedro is in his late 40's. So yes he looks weathered and older as a middle aged man of his age would.

First sign your comments on a talk page, which is 4~. Second looks perfectly fine to me. Revan's Exile (talk) 10:04, 9 February 2022 (UTC)

Family name

So, in the season 3 finale... it's revealed "Din" is actually his surname and that his name is one of the few in the galaxy that is actually backwards? Like in Japan or Hungary? RandomStunt (talk) 17:16, 19 April 2023 (UTC)

Article Photo

Is it just me who finds it odd to have his main article picture be with the helmet off? I get having it in the gallery or somewhere else on the page, but a large part of the character’s culture is not showing their face. It just doesn’t really represent who he is. CoolerMudkip (talk) 20:55, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

• I think it actually shows who he is that he was willing to take his helmet off for Grogu despite what he had been raised to believe, so it being a picture with the helmet makes sense imo Lewisr (talk) 21:49, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

Why no season 3

Mandolorian season 3 has been out for a while, why does this page barely have any information? i cant update the page but i feel like it should at least get added to Articles in need of major additions

• he is a pretty important character, so missing season 3 is like if the page for luke skywalker skipped Return of the Jedi 145.239.6.2 02:59, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

Hi, the reason why is simply because Wookieepedia editors are volunteers and work on the topics they like as they have time (wish we got paid, but we definitely don't). Many, many pages are missing information, and anyone is welcome to add what is missing. In this case, the reason it's not in the aforementioned category is because an {{Update}} tag is present, which is more succinct as it specifies which SW media this needs updates from, rather than calling for a more generalized overall expansion.—spookywilloww^talk 03:14, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
