Beesar Tal-Apurna

• Nominated by: —spookywilloww^talk 04:42, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
• Nomination comments: There's several reasons I wrote this one. Firstly, to do a matching set with Teemank. Secondly, because the comic had cool art. Thirdly...I like seeing non-Jedi willing to fight the Nihil. Makes the conflict seem more grounded and real.

1. I love Beesar so much, one highlight is when she's trying to use Zaygar's blaster Lewisr (talk) 03:22, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

ThrawnChiss

• Wouldn't the starwars.com preview technically be a {{1stp}} and not a {{1stm}} because it was first indirectly mentioned by Older on Twitter? ThrawnChiss7 ^{Assembly Cupola} 02:24, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
  • Tweaked the wording a bit on second thought to be clearer on the Tweet. Though in principle I do disagree; we don't treat non-SW.com/or most other previews for media as Sources proper, so anything that isn't in Sources isn't really a proper mention (direct or indirect). That's been a thing for quite some time, and the only limited exceptions are some other IU Twitter account stuff that's been done awhile back.—spookywilloww^talk 03:00, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
• As Tal-Apurna is only pictured in the sw.com preview, a {{Po}} should be used. ThrawnChiss7 ^{Assembly Cupola} 14:22, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
  • She's not only pictured though; she's one of the spies Imo'd by Caphtor and the investigator's conversation. Spoke to another Inq who indicated that an Imo + a Po constitutes a full mention when done in comics.—spookywilloww^talk 15:48, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Fred strikes back

• "By that time, Tal-Apurna had learned enough piloting knowledge to fly Holt's ship." It's not super clear what time "that" is referring to. Master Fredcerique(talk) (he/him) 05:39, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
  • Tweaked to be the year instead —spookywilloww^talk 18:58, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Comet

• It doesn't seem like her being able to speak Basic is citable to the Character Encyclopedia (unless I missed something).CometSmudge (talk) 02:28, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
  • Good point, shifted the ref.—spookywilloww^talk 03:07, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
