A nice character but he is not my favourite. JS-4422 (talk) 03:49, September 22, 2017 (UTC)

  • I don't think including "Construction" in the first Bio subheading is necessary; it just makes the title long and awkward.
  • In general, that entire section has a bit too much context and repetition irrelevant to B1-268. "intergalactic conflict" is exactly the same as "waged war throughout the galaxy". The Clone Wars is such a familiar concept, it does not warrant a separate sentence just as context.
  • Same goes for the next paragraph, where you have three consecutive long paragraphs that don't concern B1-268 directly. I'm not sure why you even have this sentence: "Sidious gave a speech to the Galactic Senate, proclaiming the Jedi were traitors and declaring that the Republic would be transformed into the First Galactic Empire." since you already brand the Jedi as traitors in the previous sentence.
  • Some of the stuff sourced to ROTS can definitely not be sourced to the movie. The easiest way to fix this is probably by cutting out "Sheev" and using "Order 66" instead of "Clone Protocol 66."
  • Reference 10 doesn't work as is. "Since the events of this article take place in the second year prior to the Battle of Yavin" I'm sure his construction didn't take place in 2 BBY.
  • I'd say mentioning the Spectres would probably be a good idea instead of just pipelinking it.
  • "a super tactical droid who served as a general in the Droid Army and..." Is this proper capitalization? You're not using the full proper name and "droid army" on its own is hardly a proper name.
  • "however, he received new orders saying that the invaders were to instead be brought to the ship's command center." Do we know who issued the new orders?
  • I think the prisoners are noteworthy enough to receive names instead of mere pipelinks.
  • More to come once these are fixed. 1358 (Talk) 14:41, September 25, 2017 (UTC)

Comments

  • Someone decided to make Kalani holdout, I added it to the infobox but left where to put it in the article up to you, so you can put it where it feels best. --Lewisr (talk) 11:49, July 24, 2017 (UTC)
    • Thanks for telling me, Lewisr. I've gone ahead and linked it in the article. Cevan IMPpress (talk) 20:01, July 27, 2017 (UTC)
