No one cares, Effie!
  • Reload that infobox.
    • Done.
  • His nickname of Effie isn't mentioned outside of the leading quote. It should be in the bio and even bolded in the intro.
    • Done.
  • On calling him FE throughout the article: Is he ever called just "FE" in canon? I feel like the full name of FE-9Q would be best. I've always seen using full droid names as akin to using last names for real boys and girls.
    • Done. Thefourdotelipsis (talk) 03:31, November 20, 2013 (UTC)
  • Could anything serve as a quote for "In the service of the Doshuns?"
  • Species identifiers are used for a few of the Starhoppers, but the word "Human" doesn't appear once in the article. I think it would be appropriate to call the Doshuns (or just Jimm) Humans on their first mention.
  • "Reluctant starhopper" goes into some play-by-play that's doubly inappropriate since it's not even about Effie: "Doshun demanded to know where Solo's starship was, presuming that it would be used to spirit them away from Aduba-3, but the Corellian pointed out that he had not said anything about them leaving the planet."
  • How does Jimm react to Effie's destruction? Seems like it would be good info for the end of the bio.
  • In Behind the scenes, how about mentioning that Effie is one of a group of characters that pay homage to The Seven Samurai? You can source it to StarWars.com The Clone Wars Episode Guide: Bounty Hunters on StarWars.com (original site is defunct).
  • The "Characteristics" section should describe some of his hardware (treads), sensor color, plating color, gender programming, and a host of other stuff that's currently exclusive to the infobox. If you don't mind some self-tooting, see Proto One for an example of this in action.
  • Since the categories name him as a fifth-degree droid, I'd like to see that reflected in the article. He's obviously never directly named as a fifth-degree droid, but he is named as a labor droid, and the New Essential Guide to Droids does name Labor Droids as fifth-degree'ers. Catch my drift?
