BTS needs to be updated with rest of article. Its not Ultimate New Edition that established the Saleucami system, its Star Wars Lightsabers: A Guide to Weapons of the Force.- Well, that was painful to do. Does that work for you?
- Yep! Editoronthewiki (talk) 23:16, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

The Star Wars Book incorrectly states Grievous fought Kenobi aboard the Steadfast and lists it as one of their encounters, that error needs to be included in BTS.Editoronthewiki (talk) 19:18, 27 November 2022 (UTC)- How does this look? Erebus Chronus (Talk) 23:08, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
- I don't think you need to note the Steadfast is Koth's flagship again then, and that can't be cited to The Star Wars Book at any rate. But other than that, great! Editoronthewiki (talk) 23:16, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
- Fixed. Erebus Chronus (Talk) 00:56, 28 November 2022 (UTC)

"Eeth Koth's capture was described as occurring over Saleucami, which the article assumes an error due to Star Wars Lightsabers: A Guide to Weapons of the Force establishing its occurrence in the Saleucami system" Why can't the capture take place over Saleucami, which is located in the saleucami system? -ThrawnChiss7 (talk) 03:13, 9 December 2022 (UTC)- Because they head for Saleucami right after. The episode also clarifies it's in the Saleucami system, but just not if it's over Saleucami or in a random part of space in the system. Erebus Chronus (Talk) 16:30, 9 December 2022 (UTC)
- I'm still not seeing your point here. We know it is in the saleucami system, why does that mean it isn't over Saleucami? You say the episode makes it unclear where in the Saleucami system the capture takes place, and should we use the most specific details we have, ie that it took place over saleucami. -ThrawnChiss7 (talk) 17:36, 9 December 2022 (UTC)
- To jump in here (with erebus's blessing on discord), the capture can't be over saleucami itself. Grievous's flagship only moves to saleucami after the capture. the capture can be in the system, but the episode makes it clear the ship is not over the planet itself yet Editoronthewiki (talk) 17:43, 9 December 2022 (UTC)

Okay, the bts needs to be updated to say that the episode makes it clear that it can't take place over saleucami, not Star Wars Lightsabers: A Guide to Weapons of the Force. Something like "Eeth Koth's capture was described as occurring over Saleucami, which the article assumes an error due to "Grievous Intrigue," portaying the capture in open space, rather then above a planet", rather than "Eeth Koth's capture was described as occurring over Saleucami, which the article assumes an error due to Star Wars Lightsabers: A Guide to Weapons of the Force establishing its occurrence in the Saleucami system". -ThrawnChiss7 (talk) 19:12, 9 December 2022 (UTC)- Does that work for you?

- Sorry to turn this article into Thon's Orchard, but Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Character Encyclopedia - Join the Battle! says Koth was captures "at Saleucami" ThrawnChiss7 (talk) 23:07, 16 December 2022 (UTC)
- Same answer as before. The episode take precedence over the reference book, and as stated previously, it's clear that the capture isn't over Saleucami. Erebus Chronus (Talk) 03:23, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
- I understand that, the discountinuity needs to be noted in the bts. -ThrawnChiss7 (talk) 21:37, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
- But why? I've already made that clear with another source, which does the same thing. Erebus Chronus (Talk) 01:12, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
