- This article brings a tear of nostalgia to my eye... When I first got to this wiki, it was nothing but a little one-sentence bit that didn't even mention the war with the Gopso'o. My full support. Rodtheanimegod4ever 07:59, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Objections
Longer intro needed. Atarumaster88 (Audience Chamber) 06:56, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
Lol, I was just telling a friend that it probably will need a longer intro. Will get onto it. --Eyrezer 08:17, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
Needs a slightly longer introduction. Needs a cleanup of excessive links, particularly in image captions and quotes. Remove some names (or all) from the "Famous members" field in the infobox—it currently lists all known Drovians. Some images should be resized or removed—they're currently mucking up a few headers.—Unsigned comment by Imperialles (talk • contribs)Hold on. The 2 double links in the main text have been removed, and there are 2 in the intro paragraph that appear in the text, but many other FA's also have links in the intro that are linked in the main text.- As to links in the picture captions, I see no difference to what has been done here as to the currently featured article Jedi apparel. There, links in the captions are also found in the text.
- Again with the quotes, there are no links in the quote text, and linking the speaker is commonly done. I don't quite understand this objection. Could you explain, or perhaps change it?
- The objection to famous members, the infobox is not cluttered by their names as there is only 5. All the other FA species articles have more than 5 names in the box. These are the most famous Drovians! ;)
- The picture blocking the header has been changed.

- "Other FAs have it" is a moot argument—most FAs are in disrepair. There should be no excessive links (even in quotes or image captions), and to avoid fixing them is laziness. --Imp 17:05, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Comments
- Re above: I have no problem changing it, Imp, but I also don't see why you are not capable of fixing it yourself. Surely that would be a more efficient way than objecting then waiting for someone else to change it. --Eyrezer 04:41, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
- I have other things to do, and I'm not the one nominating the article. You do want it to be as good as possible, yes? --Imp 06:01, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
- Eyrezer, intro looks good, but what is the source for the "New Jedi Order resolved their civil war?" That wasn't in Planet of Twilight I don't think. Atarumaster88

- The source for that is in The New Jedi Order: Agents of Chaos I: Hero's Trial. There is a paragraph that updates what has occured on the planet since POT. The info on the war resolution, weather station etc are all from that. --Eyrezer 06:12, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
