  1. As much as I personally dislike it, because I still see it as impractical, we aren't allowed to carbon copy articles for status anymore. You have to change up the wording in this one so it's not so similar to the Twi'lek. The BTS is exempt from this. NaruHina Talk Anakinsolo 02:55, October 3, 2011 (UTC)
    • Are those superficial wording changes I made good enough? :P OLIOSTER (talk) 02:03, October 4, 2011 (UTC)
      • Honestly... no. Make more than a superficial effort. You can get the same info across by using completely different sentences. Menkooroo 05:34, October 4, 2011 (UTC)
        • Is that better? OLIOSTER (talk) 05:48, October 4, 2011 (UTC)
          • The article looks good to me, but I don't see why the BTS section should be exempt. IMO, like Menk said, you can get the same idea across by using different words and sentences. Thoughts?--Cal JediInfinite Empire (Personal Comm Channel) 15:08, October 4, 2011 (UTC)
            • The BTS generally comes down to one sentence of limited breadth and wracking your mind trying to reword this when most articles on this page follow a structure anyway ("It appeared in this book written by this person") would be unnecessarily tedious, eventually culminating in wordiness we don't need. For the courtesy of rewording whole articles that could otherwise be the same, it's a small exchange to allow the BTS to remain constant. NaruHina Talk Anakinsolo 15:50, October 4, 2011 (UTC)
              • That's fine by me, then. It makes it easier for me. ;) --Cal JediInfinite Empire (Personal Comm Channel) 20:59, October 4, 2011 (UTC)
  2. More of a question I suppose: does this edit make the year the subject of the sentence? I mean, making the first sentence be POV of the year, not the Ithorian. –Tm_T (Talk) 06:45, October 4, 2011 (UTC)
    • Better? OLIOSTER (talk) 07:36, October 4, 2011 (UTC)
      • Better in terms of POV yes. It's choppy sentence (or two) now, though. –Tm_T (Talk) 07:55, October 4, 2011 (UTC)
        • All one sentence now. OLIOSTER (talk) 08:10, October 4, 2011 (UTC)
  3. For this article and your Twi'lek nom, please mention their lack of hair in the infobox and the body.--Exiled Jedi Oldrepublic crest (Greetings) 16:51, October 11, 2011 (UTC)
    • Why? OLIOSTER (talk) 18:10, October 11, 2011 (UTC)
      • Yeah, I guess it really isn't necessary, sorry about that.--Exiled Jedi Oldrepublic crest (Greetings) 02:10, October 13, 2011 (UTC)
