    • Apparently Desultri's a planet. This should be said in the article.
      • It's never explicitly called a planet in the source. That would be speculation on our part.
        • According to its article it is, and its sourced to the Atlas and a Twitter thing. 501st dogma(talk) 01:06, February 28, 2013 (UTC)
          • The article is wrong, I'll have to change that. You can check the source, the only mentioning of Yde is: "AANXI RAANXI LAANXI of Desultori, Yde, chairs four subcommittees...". The Twitter ref doesn't say anything whether it's a planet, a moon, a star, an asteroid or anything else. Stake black msg 01:16, February 28, 2013 (UTC)
    • I think you should add Desultri to the infobox as one of the planet's in the system, even though its not canon.
      • I disagree on that... If I put it there people will mistake that for canon information. I don't recall any examples of cases like this. It's my understanding that non-canon information should be in the in-universe sections as long as they are appropriately sandwiched between {{noncanonstart}} and {{noncanonend}}.
    • Otherwise, it looks good. 501st dogma(talk) 21:35, February 27, 2013 (UTC)
      • Thanks for the review, dogma! Stake black msg 21:49, February 27, 2013 (UTC)

    • Template:Nc should be in front of the non-canonical appearance (after '1stm' of course), don't you agree?
      • Wow, you're right, I missed that one.
    • You don't require the last sentence of the Bts at all, it's just saying what is already in the article. But I'll let you the decide the fate of this objection and will sratch it regardless. Winterz (talk) 00:57, February 28, 2013 (UTC)
      • Well, I think I'll keep that one :P Stake black msg 01:16, February 28, 2013 (UTC)
        • Still, per a recent CT, Atlas' coordinates can't be in the article's body, so you'll have to get rid, at least, of that part. Winterz (talk) 01:20, February 28, 2013 (UTC)

    • Any chance you could give us the quote in which the system is mentioned for the BTS? It'd make the BTS make more sense, IMO. Cade Calrayn GalacticRepublicEmblem-Traced-TORkit 23:19, March 1, 2013 (UTC)
      • Sure, please see 501st dogma's first objection. It's not a quote by a character per se, just a mentioning in the text. Stake black msg 03:05, March 2, 2013 (UTC)
        • That's perfectly fine; narrative text is acceptable in BTS and other OOU sections. Cade Calrayn GalacticRepublicEmblem-Traced-TORkit 03:08, March 2, 2013 (UTC)
          • Done. Stake black msg 03:13, March 2, 2013 (UTC)
            • Are you sure we can have OOU quotes? The manual of style says that : "A quote is NOT: Narrative prose that is not actual spoken dialogue or a character's personal memoirs, journal, or diary. This means that thoughts are not considered quotable material." However, I'm not sure if this pertains to the BTS.--Exiled Jedi Oldrepublic crest (Greetings) 16:21, March 3, 2013 (UTC)
              • I've had a very similar conversation with CC-8 above, and there are some OOU quotes that serve as exceptions as in author's comments and "real-life" explanations. Quotes from the material itself as in this situation (encyclopedic entries, OOU databanks, and all that), are not one of those exceptions. Winterz (talk) 03:56, March 4, 2013 (UTC)
                • Whichever way you guys decide, for me it's fine. Stake black msg 13:51, March 4, 2013 (UTC)
                  • If the quote in the article is the one Cade requested, then it's a no-no and it must go-go :c Winterz (talk) 17:57, March 4, 2013 (UTC)
                    • I'm fairly certain we are allowed to use OOU quotes. I've used them before, such as here, and the users in IRC have said that we can use OOU quotes if they're in the BTS section. Cade Calrayn GalacticRepublicEmblem-Traced-TORkit 21:32, March 4, 2013 (UTC)
      • As for this latter objection, you should know that while a recent CT was created for some OOU quotes exceptions, this is not one of them, so you still need to get rid of it ;). Winterz (talk) 14:22, March 6, 2013 (UTC)
