Lovely. I've always been fascinated by this guy, but never really thought of FAing him. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 17:25, 5 March 2009 (UTC)- The Sand People/Human conflict would make an interesting article. --Eyrezer 12:25, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
- Extremely minor character that I too have always liked. Chack Jadson (Talk) 21:48, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
— Fiolli {Alpheridies University ComNet} 19:34, 19 March 2009 (UTC)- Hey, it's 1,012 words now. And 1,015 words if you de-hyphenate some things. :-P -- Darth Culator (Talk) 23:29, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

- Chack Attack:
Redlink in infobox.- I've eliminated the link. Since there's nothing that actually happens at that date (it's just a lower limit here), I think it makes more sense than to make an empty article for it.
Also, why do you use <550 when later in the article you specify that it was 550 BBY?- It says he came to Tatooine in 550 BBY. He was born before that.
- Facepalm. Chack Jadson (Talk) 21:48, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
- It says he came to Tatooine in 550 BBY. He was born before that.
- I made a few changes for you, as it seems that the 516 BBY date is not set in stone, so I added "about 516" and such. Good article. Chack Jadson (Talk) 13:50, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
- No, the 516 BBY date is something else; the thirty-four years figure is set in stone, but that's the time he lived in the monastery, not the total time spent on Tatooine. - Lord Hydronium 19:34, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
- Gotcha.

If my memory serves, there are pockets of "Alkhara's bandits" and the like on Tatooine, and I think on a mission for Ephant Mon or Barada or someone, the PC has to take them out for Jabba. The bandits' existence would seem pertinent to his legacy paragraph. Worth looking into. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 17:25, 5 March 2009 (UTC)- Yup. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 17:29, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
- Nevermind, I missed it, was looking for a Galaxies ref. Move along. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 17:35, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
- Yup. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 17:29, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
