  • Maybe you could note in the behind the scenes the position also appears in the non-canon Shakespeare version of A New Hope--Editoronthewiki (talk) 13:43, April 12, 2020 (UTC)
    • That is not particularly noteworthy of an appearance. It has long been decided that behind the scenes should only include appearances or sources that are of value for the subject in question. As an example, see for reference the fact that The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia was included in the behind the scenes of this article as the first source identifying that role, but was removed from AF-27's behind the scenes section, given the lack of critical value for that article.

  • "Finally, in 2008, The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia, in order to solve the issue of two captains on the same ship, established Bolvan as the ship's gunnery captain,[1] a demotion from his original position as the captain of the Devastator in the chronologically earlier Shadows of the Empire Sourcebook." The flow of this sentence is pretty poor, I would reword this. UberSoldat93 ClanMudhornSignet-Redemption (talk) 10:33, April 13, 2020 (UTC)
    • Hope it's better now. Hanzo Hasashi (talk) 13:31, April 13, 2020 (UTC)

  • I believe you should mention the details of the uniform Bolvan wore as an Imperial gunnery captain.
    • Done.
      • Addendum: in behind the scenes I also got rid of the Imperial officer's uniform pipelink, since Bolvan and Hija's uniforms are the black Navy crewman's uniforms, which look different from the black variant of the officer's uniform. Hanzo Hasashi (talk) 02:07, April 18, 2020 (UTC)
  • That Facebook link for the reference image is not working. TanDivoInsignia-SenateMurders Anıl Şerifoğlu (talk) 16:06, April 17, 2020 (UTC)
    • Fixed. Hanzo Hasashi (talk) 02:06, April 18, 2020 (UTC)
      • As is, I am not sure exactly why the citation was only made to include one of the two photos (other photo with Wermis captions not included). But should the social media link to photos to begin with even be necessary, or okay without. Hanzo Hasashi (talk) 05:10, April 18, 2020 (UTC)

  • Per MoS, you only list "The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia" under Sources if the book has an entry on the subject, otherwise you use {{CSWECite}} instead. Imperators II(Talk) 19:11, April 30, 2020 (UTC)
  • Please don't italicize titles within double quotes. Imperators II(Talk) 19:11, April 30, 2020 (UTC)
  • Per LG, only the publication year should be listed for novels (and novelizations). Imperators II(Talk) 19:11, April 30, 2020 (UTC)
  • I'd like to see the release year for the film. Imperators II(Talk) 19:11, April 30, 2020 (UTC)
  • Please make the referencing more specific than using a double ref at the end of the sentence; that has by now become a discouraged practice. Imperators II(Talk) 19:11, April 30, 2020 (UTC)
  • Does the Marvel comic really provide the full publication date? Imperators II(Talk) 19:11, April 30, 2020 (UTC)
    • Yes, on the cover. Hanzo Hasashi (talk) 06:46, May 1, 2020 (UTC)
  • I believe you should clarify in the quote caption that one of the speakers is directly connected to the article's subject. Imperators II(Talk) 19:11, April 30, 2020 (UTC)
  • The BTS is a bit on the longish side, can you split it up into several paragraphs? Imperators II(Talk) 19:11, April 30, 2020 (UTC)
  • "establishing that Bolvan had been demoted to that role by the time of the events of A New Hope" — I'd rather see this documented in the article's body rather than the BTS. Imperators II(Talk) 19:11, April 30, 2020 (UTC)
    • All your objections have been responded to. Hanzo Hasashi (talk) 06:57, May 1, 2020 (UTC)
  • I'm confused why you're referencing the sentence about the fourth chapter of the Visual Guides to the third chapter, given the Sources also list the fourth chapter. Imperators II(Talk) 12:01, May 1, 2020 (UTC)
    • Ugh, 2 different chapters individually there. Fixed. Hanzo Hasashi (talk) 12:56, May 1, 2020 (UTC)

  • It would be wise to upload those Visual Guide images to the Wook given how volatile Facebook information is. Imperators II(Talk) 18:34, May 1, 2020 (UTC)
