  4. I will never ceased to be amazed as to why pilots have ships that are always on the verge of failing completely. Or why they are so endearing. Darth Xadún(Consult the Holocron) 09:07, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Oppose

  1. From the Battlefield of Chack Jadson:
    • Could you please try to expand the Characteristics section by a few sentences? I know not much info is available, but it just looks odd in its present state. Chack Jadson (Talk) 20:58, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
      • Not without making stuff up. The Databank entry is scant on details in that department, since it really focuses on the story. Thefourdotelipsis 22:58, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
    • I don't think you need to call him Dym senior. You say he was murdered, and in the same sentence mention his daughter, making it clear to the reader that her father was the one killed. Chack Jadson (Talk) 20:01, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
      • I've done that because I don't start calling Aneesa "Dym" until later on, and I did that because things get a bit too confusing earlier on if I do otherwise. Complicating matters is the fact that Dym senior doesn't have a real name. I don't think it particularly hurts, and while most people would be able to get their head around it, it's there just for that extra bit of clarification. Thefourdotelipsis 23:39, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
  2. From the Merciless Hammer of Toprawa:
    • I'm not sure what this is saying exactly. The ship would do this on its own, as I'm understanding? It would do this, but makes comfortable descents onto lush worlds? Can you do some specifying/clarifying here? "and would make ungainly descents to barren worlds"
      • Alterised.
        • I added a little bit to further clarify per the Databank Toprawa and Ralltiir 20:46, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
    • I would request that you kill the red link in the infobox.
    • Glad to see you got the Insider 100 mention in there. Toprawa and Ralltiir 20:00, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
