  5. Weird. :) How do you feel about pipelinking "sacrificed" to Death/Legends? Imperators II(Talk) 00:39, January 1, 2016 (UTC)
    • Sacrificed is rather vague, and doesn't necessarily mean dying as a result. Hanzo Hasashi (talk) 01:38, January 1, 2016 (UTC)

501st
  • " he was rumored to have sacrificed himself in battle so that his comrades could live on, at some point prior to being stuck on Tatooine." Using sacrificed makes it sound like he died, which he didn't if he later got stuck on Tatooine. Perhaps there is a another word you can use? 501st dogma(talk) 18:36, July 24, 2015 (UTC)
    • The card said those words, and being rumored to have died does not mean actually died. IRL both Osama and Saddam were believed by some to have been already dead shortly after the US invasions of their countries, before their ultimate discoveries made big news.

      • Yeah, I guess it's keepable then. 501st dogma(talk) 20:41, July 24, 2015 (UTC)

  • I am going to leave this objection here due to the dead link in the Facebook reference. I am aware that it is not possible to get an image of this, but I believe that there needs to be some sort of agreement on whether or not something like this is allowed as valid sourcing before this article can gain status.--Exiled Jedi Oldrepublic crest (Greetings) 23:26, July 26, 2015 (UTC)
    • I've decided to remove the Facebook reference. Hanzo Hasashi (talk) 01:53, July 29, 2015 (UTC)
      • Well, without the Facebook reference, the article is missing information, so the article is incomplete. I would argue that this would prevent the article from ever gaining status, but we need some kind of substantial decision on this.--Exiled Jedi Oldrepublic crest (Greetings) 01:56, July 29, 2015 (UTC)
        • I've added the Facebook reference back in. I would argue that, given the fact I added the Facebook reference to the article back when it was made and available, as well as started this CT which gave a link to the Facebook post, this is a case where an exception should be made, given the amount of users who've given the Facebook post attention back when it was online. Hanzo Hasashi (talk) 15:51, August 3, 2015 (UTC)
          • Well, this brings us back to my original objection. We need some kind of consensus on this one way or the other.--Exiled Jedi (talk) 14:32, August 15, 2015 (UTC)

Comments

  • Any apparent weird wording of the article is a result of copying the scarce info from the CCG card itself, along with his uncertain era. Hanzo Hasashi (talk) 20:29, July 5, 2015 (UTC)
  • Hmm, so neither his card text nor the stats reference him as being a Klatooinian. Is it assumption to assert anything about his species at all? Hanzo Hasashi (talk) 20:34, July 5, 2015 (UTC)
    • At least we know he's male :P Is there anything on that facebook post that might help? If you can, try to get a screenshot as well! Manoof (talk) 08:02, July 17, 2015 (UTC)
      • No, I can't get a screenshot of that Facebook post since it has been unfortunately long expired, and the citation was initially made way before the Facebook citation template. And while Leland Chee made no explicit mention of Wironicc's species, the closest thing was his thinking to retcon him as a TPM Klatooinian. Hanzo Hasashi (talk) 04:32, July 18, 2015 (UTC)
        • I'm happy with the article as-is, and agree we can't say he is klatooinian with any certainty. Manoof (talk) 06:57, July 20, 2015 (UTC)
