Melee

Things to do

Copied from AC meeting page:

• Missing information:
  • Article establishes clearly in the intro that Melee lived and slaved in Mos Espa, but this is really never mentioned in the bio.
  • Nor is the planet "Tatooine" even mentioned until the P/T, which probably deserves an obvious earlier mention.
  • I guess the article is intending to reference this in the very first sentence of the bio, but I really didn't grasp this meaning until reading the Databank entry itself. I'd like to see this spelled out more precisely, specifically the italicized portion: "Melee knew nothing of her origins, having been sold as property since her earliest recollections."
  • The article all but fails to even touch upon this specific information, only referencing it in the most general of terms: "Despite her very young age, Melee became skilled in the mechanics of Podracers. Seeing them as nothing more complicated than a child's puzzle, Melee could identify most parts of Podracer engines and cockpits, including the customized ones."
  • The article reads, "In reality, she did in fact doubt his mechanical skills, as she was experienced in that particular field." However, this really isn't what the source says. The Databank entry says she "was skeptical of Anakin Skywalker's customized racer [and] didn't recognize the boy's mechanical skills." I interpret that somewhat differently than the article's current wording.
  • The article, too, barely even touches on this information in such specific terms, only referencing it in very general and unspecific terms: "Visions of her and Anakin together vanished, and Melee despondently returned to Seek's side. But a short time later, a spring had returned to her step as she came to realize that dreams did come true, as Anakin's miraculous victory proved."
  • This, too, is never mentioned in the article: "Melee had hoped that Anakin would return someday to free them, as he had often talked about."
  • The BTS also probably deserves mention of the fact that the character was first identified by name in the Episode I Insider Guide.
