  • The SW.com forum post must use SWBoards. UberSoldat93 ClanMudhornSignet-Redemption (talk) 13:29, October 13, 2020 (UTC)
    • Fixed, thank you. TK-462 (talk) 14:40, October 13, 2020 (UTC)
      • You have to use the actual name of the thread along with the author and date/time of the post, and don't leave empty fields in citations. UberSoldat93 ClanMudhornSignet-Redemption (talk) 14:46, October 13, 2020 (UTC)
        • Oh, I gotcha. Fixed. TK-462 (talk) 14:56, October 13, 2020 (UTC)

  • The last sentence of the first paragraph currently has 3 instances of Niner's name/clone number. 2 should be fine, but 3 just seems a little redundant—not sure if he needs to be re-listed as one of the clones in the squad if he was just established to be the squad leader.

    • Good point, fixed. TK-462 (talk) 04:26, October 15, 2020 (UTC)

  • RC-8028's article elaborates on his accident, saying that he was decapitated as a result of mishandling explosives. This information should be presented here as well.
  • Every member of the squad has a CSWE entry, it seems. There's bound to be at least an indirect mention of this squad there, as well.
  • I feel that it's worth noting that Niner went on to join Omega Squad at the end. QuiGonJinn Senate seal(Talk) 08:55, October 16, 2020 (UTC)
    • Fixed the above, thank you! TK-462 (talk) 20:01, October 20, 2020 (UTC)
  • He'd lost a brother before-Two-Eight-on exercise. The three survivors had welcomed the replacement, although they had always felt he was slightly different-a little distant-as if he had never quite believed he'd been accepted. This passage from Hard Contact implies that Two-Eight was replaced by another commando after his death. The book does not elaborate who among the other troopers was the replacement. You still need to reflect in the article somehow the fact that the four listed members beside Niner did not serve together at the same time. One of the other three—DD, Sev or O-Four—was a replacement for the deceased Two-Eight. QuiGonJinn Senate seal(Talk) 09:18, 23 October 2020 (UTC)

  • Per the Manual of Style: unless this has an entry of the squad (very unlikely), you need to use {{CSWECite}} in the Sources section to specify where in the Encyclopedia it is mentioned. Also Bts. GalacticRepublicEmblem-Traced-TORkit Winterz (talk) 02:55, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
    • Sorry to interject here, the BTS doesn't need to specify the subject's further appearances or mentions. Also, if the squad is mentioned in multiple entries but doesn't have its own entry, then this needs to be specified in the Sources, as mandated by the Manual of Style.
