Where exactly is Jabba's Palace? The Star Wars Technical Journal had it just West of the Western Dune sea, far to the Southeast of Mos Eisley and Anchorhead. The Complete Locations of Star Wars, which had a whole new map, has it in the Northern Dune sea, North of Mos Eisley and Anchorhead. I assume the newer, prettier source is correct, but where does Galaxies place everything? -LtNOWIS 02:39, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

  • This brings into question the entire potency of the Tech Journal - an already shoddy source in my opinion. I can't help the discussion of Jabba's Palace, but oh well. Cutch 03:40, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Just changed the Behind the Scenes section to note this inconsistencies. It was bugging me for some time now, and I finally took the time to go through WEG maps and Inside the Worlds/Complete Locations. Personally, I'm a fan of the older sources, and although the newer map is prettier, it looks a bit forced(=fake) because the location of Ben's hut is too far away from Anchorhead (R2 traveled some 150 km through Jundland Wastes in one night?) so the scale of the whole Tatooine habitable area is...strange, to put it mildly. Nevertheless, until Leland or however addresses this question, this is how it should be. Jedancovek 18:01, June 14, 2012 (UTC)

Jabba's Move-In Date

Okay, before anyone complains about my 516 BBY reasoning: The palace was built in 700 BBY. According to its article, Alkhara moved in 150 years later, in 550 BBY. According to Inside the Worlds of the Star Wars Trilogy, he remained there for 34 years until Jabba kicked him out. Thus, the 516 BBY timeframe. Cutch 21:09, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Map

  • Does anyone know where i could find a map of Jabba's palace on the internet? I can only find one on a star wars miniatures web site, i don't know how correct it is. could some please help me? Quinlanfan 18:26, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
    • Try the Inside The Complete Worlds.Unit 8311 16:56, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Err...

It says in the 'audience chamber section' that the dancers 'provided more than just dance'. What is this supposed to imply? That Jabba held strip shows in his palace? Or that it also served as a big brothel? Or is this just some fanboy's fantasy? Thanks. Unit 8311 21:28, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Well, I'd say they did strip occasionally. Just based on what I know about Jabba, and Oola. Chack Jadson 21:39, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
  • What thing about Oola and Jabba?

I was also wondering what happened to the slaves that were chained to Jabba. And what happend to Leia while she was chained up? Quinlanfan 23:19, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

    • Is this from a canon source? I'm not sure that Lucasfilm would allow stripping in a SW-related production. Unit 8311 07:58, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
      • Actually, there is even an official short novel where Jabba sent one of his dancers (Leia) as a gift to Boba Fett so he could sleep with her. Boba refused (of course, Leia was unwilling, too), and the two ended up talking galactic politics. Anyways, this should give a good hint on what these 'other services' were. Tulon 13:35, 7 July 2007

WHO IS THE BIG GUY IN THE PICTURE OF THE MAIN ADIANCE CHAMBER?

Map 2

In the Inside the Worlds book it shows the picture of jabbas palace. There are two thing I dont understand. 1. it seems that in ROTJ that they open the main door, walk down the hall, take a left, and there is jabbas throne room. In the book it shows that the room is several stories below the hallway. 2. Jabbas throne room has several small rooms to the side of where han is in carbonite. What are those rooms? and where is the room called the dancers pit? thanks, Grand Admiral Nick Vos [Holonet] Republic Emblem

  • one of the rooms is an elivator to the upper flor i know i play kotf(knights of the force).pav_ns

EaW?

Empire at War has a buildable structure known as a 'Hutt Palace' which is basicly Jabba's palace. The expansion, Forces of Corruption, takes it further, making 'Hutt Command Centers' and even buildable palaces in skirmish. How does this work? Did the hutts pirate the blueprints and replicate the B'omarr temples themselves?--1upD 01:08, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Two Palaces? It says Jabba's home was on Nal Hutta which does make sense since its Hutt homeworld,But does that mean he has a palace there too?,Or does he just live in Jiliac's Winter palace?

Gamorrean Guards

I know that in several canon sources it states Jabba has 9 Gamorrean guards but in Star Wars Galaxies there are atleast 10 others who can be found patroling his palace, Agtor, Gurgot, Torgau, Ugtaur, Urgott, Torrug, Grogur, Ogtur, Artogg and Rautog. Leland Chee has stated swg is canon which surely makes these guys canon so does this over rule the previous canon or what? and should they be included Grogur even has his own article and i'd be happy to write the others. - Ayrehead02 12:15, December 23, 2010 (UTC)

  • A lot of things are canon. But there are levels of canonicity (sp?) I don't think SWG is C-canon, thus everything dubbed C-canon (and more so, G-canon) take presedent over it.Korsa3 22:09, December 23, 2010 (UTC)
    • Oh so none of the guards in swg are canon cool should that be included in Grogur's article? also looking at the cross section of his palace i'd say it makes more sense if Jabba had a lot more than nine Gamorrean guards but canons canon i guess - Ayrehead02 12:12, December 24, 2010 (UTC)

Court members

Why are there so many mistakes that keep getting reverted back to every time I correct them? Here are the mistakes:

1. Weeba Weeba is listed as a character even though the biography says it's just a nickname for either Malakili, Giran or Nizuc Bek. 2. Oola keeps getting listed twice - as a member of court and as a slave/dancer. 3. "Weequay (Weequay male, skiffguard)" is listed as a character even though it's a species. 4. Nizuc Bek gets listed as a palace/sail barge guard; he's the band manager, sail barge bar tender and a rancor keeper but he's not a guard. 5. Many of the characters listed as "Guests & Others" should be listed in the "Court" section since they are clearly employed by Jabba and have distinct job titles.

Do people actually bother reading edits before reverting them back?

Characters List

I think it would be useful to include a list of aliens seen in Jabba's Palace. It appears that other sites all have lists like Mos Eisley Cantina Denizens or Wikipedia's list of notable characters in canon. It really gets difficult when trying to make a list of different Jabba's Palace characters, and there are none on the Internet that I have found yet. --SamuelTheBlueBird (talk) 15:30, January 4, 2014 (UTC)

Seriously?

Guys, you can't possibly accept that all this precious information can no longer be considered canon. This wiki is moving too much info on various topics into the "Legends" half of nearly each article. We can't just take Disney's decanonization of the EU so seriously that every canon article has only one or two paragraphs to it. Details are everything. Star Wars can't possibly not exist beyond its feature films.

ThSmartGuy (talk) 03:32, February 17, 2016 (UTC)

  • We can, and we have. It's not even really up for debate anymore. Disney themselves owns Lucasfilm and they have said that only the films, Star Wars: The Clone Wars and everything released since their announcement is considered canon. As for the lack of information on a particular page, it may indeed mean that that's all there is in canon, or that we simply haven't added the information. In this case, it would appear that the latter is the case, "This article is a stub about a structure or a building. You can help Wookieepedia by expanding it." However, to make a claim that every canon we have "has only one or two paragraphs" is an awful generalization. See Zare Leonis. See Anakin Skywalker. See spice.

Hutt Castle

Shouldn't this be called Hutt Castle in accordance with naming policy? --Potsk (talk) 01:06, 6 January 2022 (UTC)

Mobile site bug

For some reason, on the mobile site this article is labeled as Canon in the infobox when it's actually Legends (Boba Fett's Palace is the Canon article). Any idea why this happens or how to fix it? rjd1922 (talk) 17:23, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
