Imperators II
  • "the term "heresy" mentioned in the doom of the Ordu Aspectu—a battle" —How can a term be mentioned in a battle?
    • I have changed that part to make it more clear. See if it works. TanDivoInsignia-SenateMurders AnilSerifoglu (talk) 22:03, February 10, 2017 (UTC)
  • Please switch to the Marvel citation template.
    • That is actually from comicstore.marvel.com and I'm not sure if it is possible to fit that into the template. TanDivoInsignia-SenateMurders AnilSerifoglu (talk) 15:29, February 10, 2017 (UTC)
      • No need to, just locate the issue's entry on marvel.com proper and use it in the template. Imperators II(Talk) 15:37, February 10, 2017 (UTC)
        • Done. TanDivoInsignia-SenateMurders AnilSerifoglu (talk) 21:35, February 10, 2017 (UTC)
  • I fail to see how Category:Scientific occupations is applicable here. Maybe Category:Linguistic occupations should be a subcategory of that (that's another matter), but the grammarian rank doesn't seem to be connected to science in any other way than being connected to linguistics. Imperators II(Talk) 09:16, February 10, 2017 (UTC)
    • In real life, linguistics is identified as "the scientific study of language," and linguists are considered scientists (according to Linguistics and Scientist articles on Wikipedia). But feel free to remove them if you think they shouldn't be there. TanDivoInsignia-SenateMurders AnilSerifoglu (talk) 15:29, February 10, 2017 (UTC)
      • That is exactly why I mentioned the possibility of making that Linguistic category the subcategory of the Scientific category, in which case there'd be no need to include both the Linguistic category and its parent Scientific category on the article. I just did that for you, as I realized it's a {{Sofixit}}. :P Imperators II(Talk) 15:37, February 10, 2017 (UTC)
        • Oh, it wasn't a {{Sofixit}} at all :( I just did not do that because the Linguistic category also includes some articles (like "Interpreter" and "Translator") which do not necessarily study language or do anything scientific. I just forgot to write my opinion here, sorry about that. TanDivoInsignia-SenateMurders AnilSerifoglu (talk) 21:35, February 10, 2017 (UTC)
          • Ah, you're right, I hadn't noticed those. I've reverted my edit. Imperators II(Talk) 14:31, February 11, 2017 (UTC)
Brandon
  • Maybe it's just me, but this article feels like a huge reach. Like, I'd read that line and interpret it as Aphra just being cheeky. I don't think it's meant to suggest there was a rank called Jedi grammarian. I question whether this article needs to exist, tbh. - Brandon Rhea(talk) 16:53, February 10, 2017 (UTC)
    • I just didn't think of that while I was reading that part in the comic. I totally get what you are saying, she does that many times in the series (like returning with an awesome cannon and killing the raiders stuff), but I simply didn't get that vibe at that moment. I thought she was just saying that there were many other theories which contradict his father's. If the majority felt like you did, I agree it should be removed.

Comments

  • Made a slight edit to the article, please take a look.—Jedi Kasra ("Indeed.") 17:53, February 17, 2017 (UTC)
  • Per above, I also feel this should go through the delete discussion. It just seems like kinda a stretch. Corellian PremierJedi symbolThe Force will be with you always 19:28, April 30, 2017 (UTC)
    • I know that Jedi grammarian sounds kinda dumb, but I personally didn't find any reason to doubt Aphra's comment in the context of the aforementioned comic book. I am OK with deletion if the majority thinks otherwise. TanDivoInsignia-SenateMurders AnilSerifoglu (talk) 03:29, May 2, 2017 (UTC)
