In Continuity, I think you could also include the story was the first appearance of the Pathfinders, who like the EX droid, played important roles in the same phase- Good call, added.
Couldn't the publisher of the issue be mentioned?Lewisr (talk) 23:46, 14 August 2023 (UTC)- Indeed, added. JediMasterMacaroni(Talk) 20:39, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
I think it'd be worth changing the final image to one of an EX droidLewisr (talk) 07:06, 29 December 2023 (UTC)- Done. JediMasterMacaroni(Talk) 22:46, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

The intro should contextualize Episode II as a film, it also needs to be mentioned in the body.Seeing as the story is an anniversary piece, the continuity section should refer to the characters and setting that originated from Episode II.Commander Code-8 Hello There! 12:46, 14 December 2023 (UTC)- Both addressed.

If you include Millennium, Standard day and Standard century in Appearances, why not Standard decade, standard hour, standard month or second, Nanosecond or Millisecond?ThrawnChiss7 Assembly Cupola 19:12, 19 January 2024 (UTC)- For decade specifically, the events of the story are less than a couple hours. For the rest of those, I don't think the point of those articles is to include every single narrative source as an appearance but rather to document when they are actually mentioned. If you disagree, I think that's a wider conversation to be had.
- The WP:LG states that the Appearances section "Includes even the smallest mentions in dialogue, narration, or visual appearance". I think this should be changed, but currently, this is per policy. On the other hand, if we don't choose to interpret that to mean that time units should be on this page, then, as I mentioned above, why are you only including some time units but not others? If the story only takes place in a few hours, then why do you include Standard century?ThrawnChiss7 Assembly Cupola 13:34, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
- For things like time and other concepts that are effectively always present, precedent is very much to only include those that are specifically mentioned within a piece of media. This provides some info to the reader rather then including them in every appearances list, which would be redundant. Ayrehead02 (talk) 19:48, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
- I was unaware of this precedent, seems like it goes against the Layout guide. So, what counts in this category of "always present"? I assume that time units do and Universe, measurement units like Meter, other general things like Temperature and The Force which according to very technical interpretations, appear in all media. I'm not sure about such things such as realspace, Atmosphere, species, Sentience, gender, sector, star system. I don't think oxygen and gas should count because of stories like "This Is No Cave", which, according to my recollection, include neither. This is a larger discussion than just this nom (which has been had before multiple times, but with no clear consensus), and I will strike my objections when the below question is awnsered.ThrawnChiss7 Assembly Cupola 23:46, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

- Does the story specifically mention "day"? ThrawnChiss7 Assembly Cupola 23:46, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah, and century as well. JediMasterMacaroni(Talk) 17:38, 9 February 2024 (UTC)

how do you feel about including Alien, Oxygen, Gas (Because oxygen), Universe, galaxy and the galaxy in Appearances?ThrawnChiss7 Assembly Cupola 19:12, 19 January 2024 (UTC)- Added galaxy/the – for the rest I'd say same as above, worth having a larger convo. For alien in particular we usually link to that in the context of unidentified species. JediMasterMacaroni(Talk) 03:37, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
- Yea, that makes sense for Alien. For the others, see above. ThrawnChiss7 Assembly Cupola 13:34, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
