Object

• Be careful not to link redirecting pages, pipelink them instead.
  • Fixed.
• Use {{Ref}} templates in the infobox.
  • Done.
• Add an "1" after the |hidep in the infobox, if nothing goes into the Physical specification section.
  • Done. Holocron ^(Complain) 03:18, January 22, 2011 (UTC)
• Add an image of the shop. Darth Morrt 13:38, January 21, 2011 (UTC)
  • I can add the one on this page, as that's the owner standing in the store. Other than that I'll need to find someone who can take screenshots. Do you know anyone who can do that?
    • I took these, choose which you prefer. One is inside and the other is the shop's sign. File:YortasEmporiumSign-KOTOR.jpg - File:YortalsEmporium-KOTOR.jpg. OLIOSTER ^(talk) 04:34, January 22, 2011 (UTC)
      • Thanks for the help, second image added. Holocron ^(Complain) 05:02, January 22, 2011 (UTC)
• The Siths mocked Ixlis in the shop, so this is part of the shop's history and should be mnetioned. And maybe the discount offered to Revan, too. Darth Morrt 05:15, January 22, 2011 (UTC)
  • The Sith harassing Yortal was already mentioned, but I'll add Revan's discount. Holocron ^(Complain) 05:17, January 22, 2011 (UTC)
    • Sorry, I don't know why I didn't noticed it. Darth Morrt 05:31, January 22, 2011 (UTC)
• Morrt is right --- "may have" doesn't fly, and the game mechanics template should be used, even if it's not part of the plot. If you need some examples, see here or here.
  • The problem is that those templates say "fully completes and chooses only 'light side'" when neither of those apply to Revan going in there unless fully complete is defined as having walked into every room in the game. Is there precedent for that template being used in awkward places? Holocron ^(Complain) 14:33, January 26, 2011 (UTC)
    • Here's the template itself --- looks like you don't have to mention anything about the dark or light side. "100% game completion" means, I think, that you do everything. So, talking to Yortal would be required for 100% completion. Menkooroo 14:47, January 26, 2011 (UTC)
      • Much better than the other template. It's not like you could strangle poor Yortal or burn his store down. Template added. Holocron ^(Complain) 03:43, January 27, 2011 (UTC)
• Do you know if Yortal has a CSWE entry? If he does, it probably mentions his shop.
  • Neither his page or the giant list of CSWE entries mentions him. Holocron ^(Complain) 14:33, January 26, 2011 (UTC)
    • Yarr, and Y has been fully covered!
• For completeness's sake, could you add a bit on to the end of the last sentence in "Behind the scenes" mentioning the different name for the shop that the strategy guide gives? Menkooroo 14:20, January 26, 2011 (UTC)
  • Done. Holocron ^(Complain) 14:33, January 26, 2011 (UTC)
• This one is more of a reminder: Use the template.
• A small thing, I think you should mention on which part of Ahto City this shop is (See how the map is named). (: –Tm_T ^(Talk) 15:15, February 2, 2011 (UTC)
  • The strategy guide lists it as being in Ahto East. OLIOSTER ^(talk) 16:25, February 2, 2011 (UTC)
• Flamethrower is one word, but I think the game lists those parts as Flame projectors or Flame emitters (I can't really remember which). You can roll with whichever term you like, but if you stick with flamethrower then you need to kill that space. SinisterSamurai 16:43, February 2, 2011 (UTC)
• CUSWE has an entry for Yortal's Emporium. That wouldn't be a source, but policy encourages us to link to Wookieepedia's "Official friends" in External links. {{CUSWEID|47898|Yortal's Emporium}} SinisterSamurai 16:43, February 2, 2011 (UTC)
  • Done. Holocron ^(Complain) 07:21, February 3, 2011 (UTC)
• Since "Yortal Ixlis's Junk Shop" is a canonical name, it should be bolded in the intro. NaruHina ^Talk 11:13, February 4, 2011 (UTC)
  • Done. Hope I did it correctly. Holocron ^(Complain) 06:34, February 6, 2011 (UTC)
    • No change. NaruHina ^Talk 01:34, February 7, 2011 (UTC)
      • I'm not sure what happened, I remember writing it, perhaps it wasn't saved. Try it now. Holocron ^(Complain) 06:26, February 7, 2011 (UTC)
        • That happens to me all the damn time. Don't sweat it. NaruHina ^Talk 06:32, February 7, 2011 (UTC)

Comments

• I think, you shouldn't say something like "Revan may have visited the shop." I don't make this an objection, because I don't know how to solve it. IMO, the {{GameLSmechanics|Knights of the Old Republic}} is not the best here, because the shop is not related to the plot of the game. I sure that other users who are more experienced than me would object this and find a solution. Darth Morrt 13:38, January 21, 2011 (UTC)
  • I don't see the need for a game mechanics template to be added, because the store wasn't involved in any quests or the main plot. But I'm even less experienced than you, this is my first nomination for an article not based on a book. Holocron ^(Complain) 03:18, January 22, 2011 (UTC)
• The shop is mentioned as "Yortal Ixlis's Junk Shop" in the Knights of the Old Republic: Prima's Official Strategy Guide. Should probably add it as a source. OLIOSTER ^(talk) 04:27, January 22, 2011 (UTC)
  • Thanks, added.
