I suggest you merge the intro and the history. There's no point of having them both in a super short article like this.1358 (Talk) 11:45, September 27, 2010 (UTC)- Okay, so moved. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 02:26, October 1, 2010 (UTC)

Your sentences are very choppy.I know CAs are lax about following the layout guide, but you could definitely write a Characteristics section for this. That also means you'd have to write a brief History if not a Role section as well. See here.Your BTS could also use more information, i.e., which level they appeared in and who made the game.NaruHina Talk

- How does the article look now? Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 02:28, October 5, 2010 (UTC)
- First, the Intro and History are too similar. You must reword the sentences and, ideally, have a significant difference in length (shorten the intro).
- Done. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 21:55, October 5, 2010 (UTC)
Give the title of the level in the Bts.- Added. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 21:55, October 5, 2010 (UTC)
- JFFR, when someone asks for who made the game, they mean the developers (in this case Factor 5), not LucasArts.
- The Characteristics section should include a physical description. I still suggest a Role section, but due to the History section detailing what would be in it, I will not push for one. NaruHina Talk

- "Tan colored flying blocks." Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 21:55, October 5, 2010 (UTC)
- Those aren't simply blocks. For example (Don't phrase it like ths in the article) The tops are pyramids, the bodies are square, and they have four drops on each corner of the body. And of course they fly. They're starfighters. NaruHina Talk

- Do you know what kind of mines? NaruHina Talk

- Floating proximity mines. I am sure we don't have an article on them. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 19:02, October 15, 2010 (UTC)

Are they actually called "minelayers" in the game? If not they cannot be referred to as such in the article. It should instead read "ship" or some equivalent. It can also say they were used as minelayers if that is the case.NaruHina Talk

- Name changed. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 21:55, October 5, 2010 (UTC)
A mention of Sykes being in the stolen gunboat, concealing his identity from the minelayers, should be added.NaruHina Talk
03:07, October 5, 2010 (UTC)- Added. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 21:55, October 5, 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry, I overestimated my free time, so I fixed certain things myself. It'll take time for me to get back to you on the other things as well. NaruHina Talk
22:12, October 13, 2010 (UTC) That they are affiliated with the TF Droid Army is currently only in the infobox. NaruHina Talk

- Whoops
The article uses both "Andrevea River" and "The Andrevea River". Pick one and stay consistent, baby!As a note, the Andrevea River article doesn't seem to be consistent on that, either. Even though it's already passed its nomination, could you consistitize that one, too? Menkooroo 04:24, October 24, 2010 (UTC)- Both done.

- Who wants to place bets on whether I have to move the page? Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 14:25, September 22, 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, it needs to be moved to Unidentified minelayer. :P 1358 (Talk) 12:10, September 23, 2010 (UTC)
- Just UnID minelalyer, and not UnID minelayer (TF)? Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 20:01, September 23, 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, it needs to be moved to Unidentified minelayer. :P 1358 (Talk) 12:10, September 23, 2010 (UTC)
- Page moved —Unsigned comment by Corellian Premier (talk • contribs)
- Slightly related to the above, the current title made me think this article would be about a person, not a ship. Perhaps "Unidentified minelaying ship" or somesuch might be better? Just a suggestion; good article. ~ SavageBob 21:21, October 23, 2010 (UTC)
- I appreciate the suggestion, but I would prefer to get a second opinion, as I have a tendency to mis-name titles. Corellian PremierAll along the watchtower 16:38, October 24, 2010 (UTC)
