  • I don't think Kaz's aurodium trophy is relevant to the aurodium standard page; you can just say that the standard shared its name with aurodium, and mention that it was used in currency. Fan26 (Talk) 19:28, November 24, 2019 (UTC)
    • Fixed--Editoronthewiki (talk) 19:32, November 24, 2019 (UTC)
      • You don't need to mention that aurodium was used in items other than currency. Only the latter is relevant to this article. Fan26 (Talk) 19:36, November 24, 2019 (UTC)
  • I think "currency standard" works better than "standard for currency". Fan26 (Talk) 21:57, November 24, 2019 (UTC)
  • The word "however" isn't really needed in the second sentence and can be removed.
  • The word "itself" can be deleted from the sentence that makes up the last paragraph, as I don't think there's any need for extra clarification regarding the aurodium standard in its own article.
  • "However, some feared the Republic was overly reliant on the banks and that they had too much power." Since the article is about the aurodium standard, not the Republic's relationship with the banks, I think this sentence can be condensed and incorporated in the sentence right before it.

    • Done--Editoronthewiki (talk) 20:52, November 25, 2019 (UTC)
      • You've made it part of the preceding sentence, yes, but you haven't shortened it at all. This entire third sentence (from "By the time of the Clone Wars..." to "...too much power") is much too long and, in my opinion, can definitely be shortened to remove most of the extra details irrelevant to the aurodium standard itself.

  • "This was to make sure the Republic's currency remained stable." This sentence feels a bit awkward on its own, and can probably be merged with the previous one. Zed42 (talk) 19:58, November 24, 2019 (UTC)

  • Please restructure the article so that the one-sentence paragraph is avoided. Imperators II(Talk) 21:02, November 25, 2019 (UTC)
  • I believe you should mention in the BTS the real-world gold standard. Imperators II(Talk) 21:02, November 25, 2019 (UTC)
    • Done--Editoronthewiki (talk) 23:51, November 26, 2019 (UTC)
      • The external link doesn't work. Moreover, for external link citations you should use {{WebCite}} if a more specific citation template is not available. Imperators II(Talk) 17:56, November 27, 2019 (UTC)
        • Good?--Editoronthewiki (talk) 20:01, November 27, 2019 (UTC)
          • Please fully follow the instructions on the template's documentation page and remove the extraneous spaces between parameters. Also you should fill out the fields for the retrieval date and the publisher. Imperators II(Talk) 20:16, November 27, 2019 (UTC)
      • I wouldn't say the two standards are "similar". Just state that in real life, gold standard blahblah. Imperators II(Talk) 17:56, November 27, 2019 (UTC)
      • Also, I'd mention that the Latin name for gold is "aurum". Imperators II(Talk) 17:56, November 27, 2019 (UTC)
        • I don't know if that is needed. This is not an article on Aurodium itself, it is just about the standard.--Editoronthewiki (talk) 20:09, November 27, 2019 (UTC)
          • I do believe the mention would be beneficial. The name "aurodium" is similar to "aurum" and therefore linked to "gold", and without that similarity, the similarity to the real world gold standard would not be so striking. Imperators II(Talk) 20:16, November 27, 2019 (UTC)
            • How do I cite that?--Editoronthewiki (talk) 20:24, November 27, 2019 (UTC)
              • Start by finding a web source that provides the Latin name for gold. Imperators II(Talk) 20:26, November 27, 2019 (UTC)
                • Good, or would you prefer a different source?--Editoronthewiki (talk) 21:21, November 27, 2019 (UTC)
                  • That seems fine, but you should note in the work/publisher parameter, as well. Imperators II(Talk) 09:21, November 28, 2019 (UTC)
  • This article's subject was mentioned in the Legends article "Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Praji." Imperators II(Talk) 21:11, November 25, 2019 (UTC)
