Oppose

  1. DC
    • In both the intro and the body, the massacre of the Cathar needs to be linked.
      • 'Tis now.
    • Why did Fett consider Pulsipher his rival?
      • Not stated.
        • Alright.
    • Again: the Mandalorian invasion of Taris needs to linked.
      • Link added.
    • In the P&T, a lot of the info in the beginning of the section has nothing to do with Fett's personality. Instead, you could put that info into a Skills and Abilities section, which would fit perfectly in the article.
      • They are traits, though, and stuff like the influence he had isn't really a skill or ability. I think the only pure skill part is the languages, since even the tactics thing ties into personality. - Lord Hydronium 19:23, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
        • I have to disagree. Though I do know what you mean by the influence he held, I still think a comprehensible Skills and Abilties section can be made out of the languages he knew and the talents he had commanding the Mandalorian fleets. DC 19:52, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
          • Objection struck per IRC discussion with Lord Hydronium. DC 02:25, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
    • Amazing article. I can't wait for Boba. DC 18:39, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
  2. From the moffship of AdmirableAckbar:
    • "In a series of skirmishes on the Outer Rim, Fett engaged the forces of the Galactic Republic in a series of battles, including a massacre of the Cathar people" — there's repetitive wording here, but it seems kind of redundant. In some minor battles, he engaged the Republic in some battles. A rewording would be prudent, possibly with a bit of explanation for the first part.
    • "attempted to invade the planet Alderaan" — did he actually attempt it? I don't think it went further than the planning stages.
    • If you're going to explain who Demagol is, you should probably do the same for Pulsipher, even if we don't know much about his relationship with Fett.
    • I'd like to see a quote in the P&T section, as well as an addition. We know he's ordered a few BDZish planetary attacks, so he doesn't have too great a regard for non-Mandalorian life, and an explanation/mention of the "To stop the infection, Cassus amputated the limb. Very like him" quote.
      • Great work. Mandalorians can be cool when used properly. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 17:24, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
        • All addressed except part of last. I can't find a suitable quote, and the quote you mention is the source of the penultimate sentence in the first paragraph, just rephrased to more specifically apply to the situation. - Lord Hydronium 20:48, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
          • Okay, fair enough. One possibility would be to move Rohlan's quote from the Jebble section to the P&T and replace it with another, though I don't mind. I do think that sentence in the P&T could be beefed up a bit and explained more, but I won't object on it. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 21:34, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
  3. I think it needs some updating from Interference. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 20:00, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
