Quite fun. - Lord Hydronium 11:09, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
Now that his skull's in the article, why not? Grand Moff Tranner ^(Comlink) 23:38, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Oppose

Toprawa:
- ~~I don't think "majordomoship" is a word. Please tweak: "After this, however, his temporary majordomoship"~~
  - Tweaked.
- I wouldn't really say this. I'm not sure if I would actually call this POV or OR, but I'm not sure how you can tell what is luck and what is skill when referring to others: "Kwerve was similar to most Corellians in that he was extremely lucky"
  - Altered a bit.
- Please check whether the GG5 info comes from the first or second edition. It may be pertinent to specify as such in the BTS, and then you should add the second edition to the source list if it's relevant
  - Altered refs and source list.
- Additionally, you should research the other adaptations of ROTJ (comics, novel, radio adaptations, etc.) to see which ones include mention of the skull, and then those need to be added to the Apps/source lists as well Toprawa and Ralltiir 00:31, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
  - Added to appearance lists.
- ~~I went to add Star Wars: Behind the Magic to the source list and noticed that it is out of order. Please order correctly and add BTM.~~ Toprawa and Ralltiir 16:29, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
  - Done and done. Thanks for the review. -- AdmirableAckbar ^(Talk) 19:59, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
- You're apparently also missing some info from the radio drama/script in regards to Luke's use of the skull, as well as a nice quote that could be thrown in there if you break up the last section a little. Please see me. Toprawa and Ralltiir 15:17, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
- Star Wars: The Annotated Screenplays could probably also be added to the source list, though I can't confirm this for you. Please ask around. Toprawa and Ralltiir 16:58, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
  - Keep looking for the screenplays. Toprawa and Ralltiir 18:45, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
From the desk of Atarumaster88
- "Kwerve was similar to most Corellians in that he was extremely lucky, and this was one of the reasons Bib Fortuna loathed him so." Please reword this entire sentence or just cut it completely. Where does it say explicitly that Corellians are lucky?
  - Better.
- ~~There is a redlink in the Appearances section that needs to go.~~
  - Fixed.
- Have a Super Terrific Friendly Un-frustrating day. Atarumaster88 ^{(Talk page)} 13:36, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
  - Will do. -- AdmirableAckbar ^(Talk) 19:59, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Rebel Dawn might start in 2 BBY, but Kwerve doesn't show up until the book has reached ANH's timeframe (0 BBY). Please correct these dates, including his date of death. --Borsk Fey'lya ^Talk 12:30, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
- Good spot; fixed. -- AdmirableAckbar ^(Talk) 13:10, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
Not that this would make much of a difference, but would it be possible to put an image of his skull in the article? That would make this article unique. Grand Moff Tranner ^(Comlink) 23:28, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
- I was originally going to include one, but there didn't seem to be space. However, the skull one would probably be better than the rancor one, so I'll grab a screenshot and try and add it tomorrow. -- AdmirableAckbar ^(Talk) 23:43, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
  - I was going to suggest the same thing. It would look really cool to get a screenshot of the skull flying through the air. :P Toprawa and Ralltiir 00:34, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
    - Image added. -- AdmirableAckbar ^(Talk) 20:03, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
