Better Naming?

I feel like "Vardos Riots" or "Mission to Vardos" might be a better name than "Skirmish on Vardos". The city pretty clearly starts descending into chaos during the level, it's a bit bigger than a skirmish, IMO. It's not a full scale battle, but describing the event as skirmish is pretty misleading.--Jogarz (talk) 21:57, November 18, 2017 (UTC)

  • I named it skirmish because it was for the events of the actual gameplay after Iden and Del go rogue rather than the whole thing with Operation: Cinder, but if anyone has better then fine --Lewisr (talk) 22:00, November 18, 2017 (UTC)
    • Hmm, maybe Mission to Vardos, since originally the mission was to extract Gleb, Vardos riots its not appropiate for the mission, since the article is for the mission of Inferno Squad. I think the article should be redesigned to fit the whole level rather than just the defection part--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 22:23, November 18, 2017 (UTC)
      • I think we could just keep it the way it is, we already have too many events named as "missions" and the mission to rescue Gleb erupted into a Skirmish between Inferno squad and other defectors against the Empire. Civilians were killed during the event but were not part of the skirmish.--Vitus Infinitus (talk) 22:26, November 18, 2017 (UTC)
        • We can mention in the prelude that they were sent to recover Gleb and then defected which leads into the middle section which would be the skirmish --Lewisr (talk) 22:28, November 18, 2017 (UTC)
          • I think Mission to Vardos would result better than skirmish. And write it like the way I did a moment ago. Covering the mission as a whole, adding both outcomes the Imperial success in recovering Gleb and the defection of Iden and Del--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 22:32, November 18, 2017 (UTC)
            • Maybe we can compromise, we can alter the infobox to be a mission one, I still feel better with the page at skirmish because ultimately that was really what ended up happening. Really there isn't all that much that would be added to the main body about the whole Gleb thing as it was literally just they went to the Archive to get Gleb and then Gideon brought her to Garrick, both of those would be better suited to go in prelude and aftermath sections--Lewisr (talk) 22:42, November 18, 2017 (UTC)
              • I think it could work--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 22:55, November 18, 2017 (UTC)
                • Me too, I'll add back what you did in that case --Lewisr (talk) 23:01, November 18, 2017 (UTC)
                  • I think Destruction of Vardos is a more accurate name for the events that transpired. All in all, everything that happened (the skirmish and the riots) happened while Vardos was in the process of being destroyed by Operation: Cinder, kinda like how the escape of Revan and Bastila Shan was a part of the Destruction of Taris. Also the outcome more comes out to Iden Versio and Del Meeko escape with crew and civilian refugees and defect to Rebel Alliance, Gleb is recovered by Gideon Hask and returned to Garrick Versio, AND Vardos successfully purged by the Galactic Empire
