  • From a Certain Point of View audiobook is missing from the appearances (to which both the short story and this would be 1stm together)
  • I think a BBY date could be gotten for the Battle of Yavin, which would need it's own reference.
  • I think the BtS should mention that the short story is part of From a Certain Point of View.—spookywillowwtalk 18:23, February 1, 2020 (UTC)
  • I think it's worth mentioning that the Rebel Alliance had aired propaganda clips using the DarkNet prior to the Yavin footage.
  • Also, it would be nice to mention that files from the DarkNet could be accessed for viewing via holo-screens.
  • "The Angle" itself never mentions Yavin specifically as the site of the battle that is shown; it's only as the DS battle, so that location, and Yavin being a planet, need references.—spookywillowwtalk 02:03, February 2, 2020 (UTC)

  • You should provide more context for where the propaganda was broadcasted, which was a bar with several patrons at the time in this case. UberSoldat93 (talk) 12:22, February 2, 2020 (UTC)
Zed
  • Could you provide a bit more context for Lobot?
  • You could probably include the information from the quote attribution (regarding Okkul showing the footage to Calrissian) into the article. Zed42 (talk) 20:35, February 2, 2020 (UTC)
Ayrehead
  • I'd rather see the connection to the OOU DarkNet made in the BTS rather than as an external link as it gives more context. Ayrehead02 (talk) 15:57, February 3, 2020 (UTC)
Imp
  • Please simplify ref 2. No need to mention ANH there. Imperators II(Talk) 15:58, February 3, 2020 (UTC)
    • Even better, just get rid of ref 2 by sourcing the "shortly after..." bit to the short story and the pure date to the Atlas. Imperators II(Talk) 16:00, February 3, 2020 (UTC)
  • Wikipedia is not a source and can not be used as such. Imperators II(Talk) 12:22, February 4, 2020 (UTC)
  • Please find a better, simpler definition of darknet than just copying a sentence from Wikipedia and substituting a few words for synonyms. Imperators II(Talk) 12:22, February 4, 2020 (UTC)
  • You should change the wording of the BTS. You can't really say that the real-world darknet is the "equivalent" of the Star Wars DarkNet, since the technology level of our world and the Star Wars one is vastly different, and the aforementioned technology is obviously different. They merely share a similar name. You can open that sentence with "In the real world, darknet is blah..." Imperators II(Talk) 12:22, February 4, 2020 (UTC)
    • Alright so, in response to the three open objections above, I have changed the wiki source to the actual book source. The pages can be viewed on the Google books preview. I've also reworded the definition better to the best of my ability. How's that? Tomotron Revanchist Sith (talk) 12:51, February 4, 2020 (UTC)
  • Just want to confirm: does the source actually call Lando "famous"? Imperators II(Talk) 12:20, February 5, 2020 (UTC)
    • No, I've removed the word. Tomotron Revanchist Sith (talk) 01:53, February 6, 2020 (UTC)
