    • Could we get articles for the employee and the bar that he dies in please? Ayrehead02 (talk) 12:53, November 24, 2013 (UTC)
      • I'm absolutely willing to make the employee article, I don't want to clutter the wiki; the bar is mentioned in a single sentence without a name. Should I still make that one as well?
        • Yup, although it may seem obscure there's no need to worry about cluttering the wiki, we have plenty of room! :P Ayrehead02 (talk) 11:05, November 26, 2013 (UTC)
          • Done and done.
    • With articles this short you can add __ NOTOC __ (without the spaces around NOTOC) above the infobox and it will remove the contents sections.Ayrehead02 (talk) 12:53, November 24, 2013 (UTC)
      • Done. Thanks for the tip.
    • You link to a redirect of Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game in the behind the scenes, could you change it? Also a tip, if you go to the my preferences page and go to gadgets, you can set your account to highlight redirects in yellow. Ayrehead02 (talk) 12:53, November 24, 2013 (UTC)
      • Done, thanks for catching that.
    • Could you mention in the bts the date that the sourcebooks were published, and mention the New Essential Guide. Ayrehead02 (talk) 12:53, November 24, 2013 (UTC)
      • Done as well.--Demos Traxen (talk) 18:37, November 24, 2013 (UTC)
        • Ah, I think you might of got sources and references mixed up. I'm assuming Ribba isn't actually mentioned in the New Essential guide and you've added it as a source for their gender. On the Wiki the Sources list contains all non-story mentions of the subject of the article, these include books like the New Essential guides or the Essential Atlas. If you use information from a book but the subject of the article doesn't appear in that book then it should only be included in the references not the sources. Don't worry it's a very easy mistake to make, all you need to do is remove the sources section of the article and the mention in the bts. Ayrehead02 (talk) 11:05, November 26, 2013 (UTC)
    • Sorry just remembered can you use the WEG template for the appearance. You can see an example of its use here in the appearances section. Ayrehead02 (talk) 21:44, December 2, 2013 (UTC)
      • Done, and thanks for the link.--Demos Traxen (talk) 05:41, December 3, 2013 (UTC)

    • Can we get an article for the firefight in the bar?
      • Honestly, that seems a bit superfluous... But I'll do it if it's needed.
    • Can you expand on the "supposedly legitimate textile business" at all?
      • I wish I could, but there's no other information.
    • In the behind the scenes, can you change "Ribba made their single" to "Ribba made its single" or some variation? As is, their makes Ribba sound plural. Supreme Emperor (talk) 03:54, December 6, 2013 (UTC)
      • Though it does sound goofy, "their" is the proper grammatical term for a subject with an unknown gender; its would be for a non-gendered sentient like a droid, or an object.--Demos Traxen (talk) 19:12, December 6, 2013 (UTC)

    • While "their" is commonly used for subjects with unknown gender, it is not the proper word to use. Please change it.
      • Done.
    • Could you combine the first two sentences with the larger paragraph below. It looks choppy the way it is.
      • Done.
    • You need to more clearly establish the time Ribba lived in the body. Mentioning the Imperial Period does not narrow it down to the same time as the eras tag.
      • Hope the rewrite works.
        • You still need to establish that the events take place in the Rebellion era. The easiest way to do this is mention that the events occurred "sometime after the Battle of Yavin."--Exiled Jedi Oldrepublic crest (Greetings) 01:00, December 12, 2013 (UTC)
          • Should be all set.
    • Please reload your infobox.
      • Done? If not, please let me know how I can do this.
        • Reloading the infobox, means putting in a new infobox using the standard preloads list and then adding the information from the old infobox to it.--Exiled Jedi Oldrepublic crest (Greetings) 01:00, December 12, 2013 (UTC)
    • "Ribba owned a supposedly legitimate textile business." I would reword this to say that people thought it was legitimate if the book used supposedly. Otherwise, it is speculation and should not be in the article.
      • Fixed.
    • Was Ribba on Celanon? If so, you should mention it. Otherwise, make it clearer how the Hutt found out about the death of the embezzler.
      • He was not. The book doesn't say how he learned of it, and I don't want to speculate.
    • The BTS says that Ribba appeared, but the appearances section just has a mentioned tag.
      • Fixed.
    • There are different articles for the No Disintegrations book. Please mention and link to the part of the book Ribba appeared in. You should also change the appearances template to show the adventure.
      • Done.
    • Are the bounty hunters player characters?--Exiled Jedi Oldrepublic crest (Greetings)
      • They are indeed. Fixed, I think. Demos Traxen (talk) 06:02, December 10, 2013 (UTC)
