Merged from Talk:Narik
Isn't this Navik the Red? -- SFH 22:42, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
I found the name in Balance Point. Could it be a spelling error? -- MyNz 22:44, 17 January 2006
Probably on the part of Balance Point. Although it could simply be a smugged up "v". -- SFH 22:48, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
Erik the Red
Does anyone know of any sources that discuss behind the scenes influences with Erik the Red the real historical figure? -- Frank V Bonura 11:57, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
- I also just realized the remarks about the misspelling of the name in the article may have been due to the the spelling of Erik the Red's name. -- Frank V Bonura 11:59, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
- Are we certain that Navik the Red and Senator Navik/Narik are the same person? - Noash Retrac (talk) 08:04, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
- Follow-up to this from two years ago? Are they the same people and is there are source? - Noash Retrac (talk) 12:48, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
- The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia, for one source, treats them as separate characters and the later sources listed only seem to mention Navik the Red and nothing about Narik, so I think splitting them is the better option. The page just decided to merge for some reason and that it was an incorrect spelling without a source saying as much Lewisr (talk) 18:36, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- Attempted to add the [source?] reference but clearly failed. Not all that familiar with referencing even after all these years. But was attempting see if we can decide whether or not Navik the Red is the same character as Senator Navik/Narik. I'm of the opinion they are two separate characters unless there is a source to confirm it, particularly the part on Rodia's membership to the Alliance of Free Planets and New Republic owing to Navik's war crimes. Seems more like speculation to me. - Noash Retrac (talk) 06:53, 19 May 2025 (UTC)
- They should be split, per the reasoning I mentioned above Lewisr (talk) 18:49, 19 May 2025 (UTC)
- Agreed. But should we name it Navik or Narik? Pity we can't ask Leland Chee to figure out which is the correct name? - Noash Retrac (talk) 02:57, 20 May 2025 (UTC)

- Time to decide on this article's fate since there is no evidence Navik the Red is the same character as Senator Navik/Narik. - Noash Retrac (talk) 00:43, 22 August 2025 (UTC)
- I've already suggested what should be done Lewisr (talk) 19:08, 24 August 2025 (UTC)
- Update on this? Are we splitting this up for different characters? - Noash Retrac (talk) 02:28, 10 November 2025 (UTC)
- I put the split request on there a while ago, someone just needs to do it Lewisr (talk) 02:49, 10 November 2025 (UTC)
- Pretty sure they are two separate characters. Galactic Campaign Guide also gives two different meanings for their names: Narik (= Bright) and Navik (= Dark). —DKS MaXoO (talk) 07:16, 25 November 2025 (UTC)
