Battle droid dispenser

(Votes required: 2 EC vote(s) required to reach minimum. Additional 1 user or 1 EC vote required to pass.)

~~Is the Attack on the Prosecutor a non-conjectural title? The page for it seems to suggest it may not be. Could you please verify?~~
- Looks to be conjectural so I've adjusted the article to reflect this. AmazinglyCool (talk) 03:03, 6 December 2022 (UTC)
~~You should merge the last sentence of the BTS with the penulimate sentence, not really a fan of that being without a citation, unless it's like those "This article assumes blah blah."~~ Erebus Chronus ^(Talk) 02:03, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
- Removed the sentence altogether based on Thammus' objections. AmazinglyCool (talk) 03:03, 6 December 2022 (UTC)
  - Works for me. Erebus Chronus ^(Talk) 02:45, 10 December 2022 (UTC)

Running the risk of conflicting with Erebus' second objection, what purpose does the sentence "It is likely that this is simply game mechanics." really serve? It seems obvious to me that it would be a game mechanic for a destroyed dispenser to stop dispensing droids, and the prior sentence already clarifies that it's an aspect specific to the game with the phrase "In the game,..." - Thannus (DFaceG) (he/him) (talk) 09:46, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
- To further clarify, I'm asking if the second sentence is clarifying this to be intentional game design or unintentional. If it's the former, the sentence should be removed. - Thannus (DFaceG) (he/him) (talk) 09:47, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
  - I have removed the sentence. AmazinglyCool (talk) 03:03, 6 December 2022 (UTC)

I think you could include a bit more description of the dispenser, at the very least its color and possibly height if it can be given relative to the clones. Looking at the image I'm also not sure how the three
~~You currently exclusively link Geonosis and Kashyyyk in the infobox.~~ Ayrehead02 (talk) 13:12, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
~~I think the protection type field is intended for what protections it has rather then what its protected from, so blasterproof or similar might work better?~~ Ayrehead02 (talk) 13:12, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
- Addressed. I'm also not sure how the three :P AmazinglyCool (talk) 02:34, 16 December 2022 (UTC)
  - Ah oops sorry, I meant to finish that with "not sure how the three hatches can be equidistant looking at the image." You also still have the planets exclusive to the infobox. Ayrehead02 (talk) 13:11, 18 December 2022 (UTC)
    - Adressed. AmazinglyCool (talk) 02:21, 22 December 2022 (UTC)

~~Can you split the paragraph accordingly? It looks a lil chunky.~~ Braha'tok enthusiast ^{Hello there} 18:10, 16 December 2022 (UTC)
- Adressed. AmazinglyCool (talk) 22:30, 16 December 2022 (UTC)
The body is one word above the word count, so will have to be sectioned unless you can get it under again. Braha'tok enthusiast ^{Hello there} 10:47, 25 December 2022 (UTC)
- Adressed. AmazinglyCool (talk) 03:47, 29 December 2022 (UTC)

"box shaped" is quite vague, since it's not rectangular (what I would consider to be box-shaped). Can you be more specific? Manoof (he/him/his) 05:12, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
Is "B1 battle droid dispenser" conjectural? The guide has "battle droid dispenser" and "super battle droid dispenser"... Manoof (he/him/his) 05:12, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
I honestly think we need a bit more detail on the historical uses. This should have enough detail to be a GAN without pointing to each individual use imo. For example, we can deduce the trandos used the dispensers since there was only a slaver ship on board at the start, but it completely neglects the dispensers deployed by the separatist ship. Another example is that, while the dispensers ARE used on the Geonosis chapter, afaik they only appear in the core ship. Manoof (he/him/his) 05:12, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
Any quotes from the game? Manoof (he/him/his) 05:12, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
When you control the AT-TE, can the canon destroy the dispensers? Manoof (he/him/his) 05:12, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
We can time how long it takes for a droid to be deployed, that should be noted Manoof (he/him/his) 05:12, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
Related to the above, but it can also be compared to the timing for the other droid dispensers in game, from memory this was faster than the others Manoof (he/him/his) 05:14, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
- Adressed all. Am going to renominate for GAN. AmazinglyCool (talk) 04:07, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
