Here's my main issue with the article: it seems more centered on the activities of the Tyrant itself, not with Cabbel. For instance, the two paragraphs on the search for Crix Madine, it doesn't seem that Cabbel had any active role outside of being on the Tyrant at the time. This article is about the character Cabbel, not on the ship. Stuff he's not expressly involved in either needs to be removed or summarized more briefly, and it very well might take this under 1,000 words.IFYLOFD (Talk) 03:28, July 13, 2015 (UTC)- Done.

Intro and bio start way too similarly for my tastes.You're going to have the source the Quantum Storm's name to something different than ESB.IFYLOFD (Talk) 03:34, July 15, 2015 (UTC)- Both taken care of. Hanzo Hasashi (talk) 04:17, July 15, 2015 (UTC)

Is Cabbel confirmed to be part of the Tyrant crew during the time of the Battle of Derra IV, or is there some leeway in the timeline in which Cabbel could have been part of the Avenger crew reporting to Needa as seen in the Topps cards, then assigned as first officer to Tyrant in the aftermath? The CCG card only states that he was assigned to the Tyrant as first officer during the Battle of Hoth, and makes no mention that he graduated OCS and went straight to the Tyrant.- Sir Cavalier of One(Squadron channel) 21:07, August 19, 2015 (UTC)
- Well the wording of his Topps card mentions him being the Tyrant's first officer in 3 ABY, before mentioning the galaxy-wide search leading to the Battle of Hoth, can be seen here for reference. Though that card's wording is ambiguous, it does sound as if he was already on the Tyrant before Death Squadron deployed the probe droids. Hanzo Hasashi (talk) 23:05, August 19, 2015 (UTC)
- Granted, while mentioning Cabbel being on the Tyrant before mentioning the aftermath of the probe droids' deployment is rather vague, without a source literally stating Cabbel was the Avenger lieutenant, it is not a duck test scenario. As an example there are numerous cases of characters being portrayed by the same extra through the films, including the Avenger bridge crew extras in reused footage on the Executor in the very end of ESB.

- Updated. Believe it might as well be a duck test scenario, per our further discussion. Hanzo Hasashi (talk) 16:21, August 21, 2015 (UTC)
