Just one: "...and starfighters had a small cross-section" Eh? Even if you put "the" in there, it still sounds odd. Reword?NAYAYEN 23:27, September 21, 2010 (UTC)- I put "profile" instead. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 14:25, September 22, 2010 (UTC)
Just at first glance, the intro could use a slight expansion.Jonjedigrandmaster (Talk) 15:04, October 2, 2010 (UTC)- Too much? Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 01:22, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
- Maybe cut it down a tiny bit, but not a whole lot. Also, please make the first sentence less redundant. Jonjedigrandmaster (Talk) 01:27, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
- Done. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 03:54, October 6, 2010 (UTC)

- Jujiggum's full review
Please change the beginning of the History and/or Characteristics section, since they start the same exact way.- Mixed. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 20:34, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
You say "several missions" but you only link one mission.- More added. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 20:34, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
- I've been thinking about this, and I think a better way to do it would be to say "…several missions, including…" And then list a few missions separately. Jonjedigrandmaster (Talk) 21:23, October 7, 2010 (UTC)
- Sure, links moved. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 00:38, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
- Okay, but please check your grammar here. Jonjedigrandmaster (Talk) 14:47, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
- Conjunctions added. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 00:07, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

"Other starfighters" This isn't clear whether you mean some more of this particular class of fighter or a completely different type of starfighter.- Additional. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 20:34, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
"destroying or driving off the starfighters" Just a slight wording issue: this sounds like we don't know which happened, whereas I believe you mean that some were destroyed while some were driven off.- Reworded. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 20:34, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
"his personal starfighter" Which his? Sykes' or Kotha's? (Yeah, I know you mean Kotha's but the wording here isn't very clear)- Fixed. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 20:34, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
- "and continued to fly in his personal starfighter as Sykes' wingmen" Huh? Do you mean wingmate? Jonjedigrandmaster (Talk) 21:23, October 7, 2010 (UTC)
- Hmn. I guess I should not have transposed the link/pipe. Fixed. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 02:12, October 8, 2010 (UTC)

I don't believe you should have the complement section filled in the infobox; that is for the vehicles/ships/troops that a ship can carry. And since these starfighters have only one pilot… That said, you also need to fill in the "Crew" section of the infobox.- Taken care of.

You need a sources section, as well as references in the infobox and text.--ID-21 Dolphin
(Talk) 20:10, October 6, 2010 (UTC)- Nope; per WP:S, "Articles with only one source or appearance may be sourced, although it is not required." Furthermore, the starfighter appeared only in the video game, which is an "appearance," not a "source," so no Sources section is necessary (unless you can name a source in which this starfighter appeared). Jonjedigrandmaster (Talk) 20:19, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
- Oh, well. I added the refs; and no sources, as the starfighters appear in neither the instruction manual nor the CSWE. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 20:34, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
- Objection(s) overridden by EduCorps 10:16, October 17, 2010 (UTC)

- You are currently at 263 words, so the article is no longer eligible for CA status, I'd suggest taking this to the GAN. Jonjedigrandmaster (Talk) 22:23, October 13, 2010 (UTC)
- Noted, but do you think it could be a GA as it stands? Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 21:16, October 14, 2010 (UTC)
