Naboo starfighter

"...but the Naboo Starfighter required two consecutive codes made up of seemingly random alphanumerics..."

SEEMINGLY random, yes, but both codes are real words, apart from the additional punctuation. The first, HALIFAX?, is the name of at least one town in the United Kingdom, Canada, and several U.S. states. And the second, !YNGWIE!, is most likely derived from guitar player Yngwie Malmsteen's first name. As to what relevance either of these things have to Rogue Squadron, if any, I haven't a clue....

It is possible, albeit purely speculative, that it is a morbid reference to both the infamous 1998 aircraft crash in the ocean near Halifax and Yngwie Malmsteen's infamously verbose recorded angry rant on an airplane 10 years prior after having water poured on him by another passenger for making disparaging remarks about homosexuals during the flight.

I don't think the article needs to be modified to reflect this, seeing as how they ARE seemingly random words. I just thought this would be a fun bit of trivia to include on the talk page.--SM-716 00:35, 4 Dec 2005 (UTC)

There was a car in this game? Weird, I unlocked all the others, never even heard about that one though. Any idea how it was done?

New look

i'm going to update this page much as i did the Star Wars: Bounty Hunter page a while back. uh, i'm going to finish up the last three levels there too, but for now, i'm going to concentrate on these...

Vehicle names

Do you think it's a good idea to have the vehicle/starship links appear as they're listed in the manual? (eg, Waveskimmer) BambookidX 00:58, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

i don't beleive so. this is the wooieepedia, and i beleive names should be true names given in the canonDude984 15:47, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Mynock

During the Battle of calamari Wedge acknowledges character called mynock after the world devastators are destroyed, does anyone who this individual is? --QX100 12:23, 20 Sept 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia FA

Wikipedia promoted their article on February 21 [1]. Therefore, I have incorporated parts of their article into ours. Specifically, all of their article except the introduction and "unlockable content," where I kept our prose. This article was originally copied from Wikipedia back in 2005, along with many others.-LtNOWIS 16:51, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

Wedge Picture

The picture of Wedge isn't from Rogue Squadron, it's from Jedi Academy.66.25.230.106 05:30, October 29, 2016 (UTC)

Cover Art

The main image used for the game's cover is not of the original, but of the Players Choice one. I would upload the original to replace it myself, but I'm not allowed to.KalKent (Anton) (Earth-1218) (talk) 11:28, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
