Context for Corulag.- I think adding the fact that Corulag was a Core Worlds planet right in the next sentence after it is stated that the Jedi pursued the Legions of Lettow to the Core Worlds would be super redundant.
- As someone not familiar with that geography, I was reading it as the Corulag event was a separate thing from the war reaching the Core Worlds. Could adding something like "There, on Corulag" make it clearer? Commander Code-8 Hello There! 11:21, 6 June 2021 (UTC)
- Sure, added.

The sentence it's in runs on too, and it should be explicit that Corulag is in the Core Worlds- Split up the sentence.
The fact that they fought with lightsabers deserves a mention.Commander Code-8 Hello There! 09:33, 6 June 2021 (UTC)- They didn't—canonically lightsabers weren't invented for another ten thousand years—and I'm assuming that it's merely visual effects due to crystal-colored (canonical fact) Force-imbued blades being swinged around. Imperators II(Talk) 09:43, 6 June 2021 (UTC)
- My bad, I had skimmed over the part where you mentioned those. However, at the moment it only specifies that Pina had that weapon. Commander Code-8 Hello There! 11:21, 6 June 2021 (UTC)
- Why, do you think that all battles should detail all the weapons wielded by their participants?
- Why wouldn't we? It's relevant information, especially in this case where a reader could make a similar assumption about the weapons based on the image as I did. Commander Code-8 Hello There! 16:33, 6 June 2021 (UTC)
- I've added it here due to the potential for confusion. But if you imagine some of the larger battles, such as Hoth or Endor, you'll see why it's an absurd principle to try and apply generally. Imperators II(Talk) 16:43, 6 June 2021 (UTC)
- Yeah fair enough, I was using the mindset I write my own battle articles with, where there's only been five at most. Commander Code-8 Hello There! 02:44, 7 June 2021 (UTC)

Why's the BTS image not on the left?Commander Code-8 Hello There! 11:21, 6 June 2021 (UTC)- Because lone images in BTS almost never look good left-aligned, and this is no exception. The spirit of the Layout Guide rule you're implicitly referring to is that on long articles images should not all be aligned along one side. You will notice that at least on recent quality articles BTS images are consistently right-aligned. Imperators II(Talk) 15:36, 6 June 2021 (UTC)
- Not totally sure that I get it but turns out the LG is pretty soft in regards to image alignment, so I'll strike. Commander Code-8 Hello There! 16:33, 6 June 2021 (UTC)
- The bottom line is that it never looks good to have a left-aligned image at the very start of the BTS. Imperators II(Talk) 16:43, 6 June 2021 (UTC)
