  1. "driving Fett to the point of suicide." I don't get this. How was Fett driven to suicide? Chack Jadson (Talk) 17:29, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
  • Veeeeerrrry poorly worded. I've corrected it now. Harrar 19:54, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
  1. Toprawa:
    • Please rectify the disparity between the infobox eras field and the era template. I would, of course, fix this for you, but I don't know what you want to source this with. Toprawa and Ralltiir 18:54, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
      • Done. Rebellion era Harrar 16:06, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
  2. From Fiolli:
    • "Unbeknownst to Xarran, a bounty hunter had indeed tracked Rivo to Vryssa—Boba Fett, an infamous professional who took the general's statement as a challenge." This sentence implies that Boba Fett was either aware of or witnessed what the general said. First, what was the statement made? Next, was it directed toward Boba Fett or the bounty hunters? Master Aban Fiolli {Alpheridies University ComNet} 15:11, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
      • The statement made is the quote for that section. Fett overhears it by using the stormtroopers present as microphones, inverting their comlinks (dunno how). It's to any bounty hunter, not just Fett. I'm going to try and make all this apparent. Harrar 23:54, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

  • I'll whack the three redlinks tomorrow. And if anyone's wondering, yes, yes I do get sick of Yuuzhan Vong. :P Harrar 00:30, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
  • There are a few images from the AJ that would probably be more suitable than the current one of Fett in the bio. There's one of Gaege before his death, and one of Slave I dogfighting the TIEs. Also, at the beginning of the story on the AJ, there's a little box with the text, "An aging storyteller weaves a tall tale involving the most notorious bounty hunter in the galaxy. But is it all just made up for entertainment, or is there a grain of truth to the fable?" which may not be in Tales from the Empire. Obviously, with the NEGTC mention and the RPG blurbs, it's not fiction (you know what I mean :-P), but perhaps a BtS mention would be prudent. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 01:35, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
    • If someone could upload those others images that'd be fantastic—I had no idea any existed. I added some stuff to the BtS but now even I'm getting doubtful over what's true and what isn't… -- Harrar 09:01, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
