  • Since Galaxies takes place after A New Hope, it's reasonable to accept that his appearance could change, right? I think the different appearance should be noted in the "P&T." I mean, all that's changed is that his eyebrows have grayed, he's lost his hair, and he's gotten darker (which could be a tan). At any rate, Galaxies is canon...
    • Done.
  • He's indirectly mentioned in the various sources that print the A New Hope script.
    • Never thought he would be. What is he referred to as in the script?
      • I'm thinking this line: "Dodonna stands before a large electronic wall display. Leia and several other Senators are to one side of a giant readout. The low-ceilinged room is filled with star pilots, navigators, and a sprinkling of R2-type robots. Everyone is listening intently to what Dodonna is saying. Han and Chewbacca are standing near the back." Not sure; I'll let you decide if that includes him or not. ~SavageBOB sig 16:56, May 31, 2012 (UTC)
  • I think you can ditch the line in the BTS that you're assuming 100% game completion. The templates in the body already say that, so no need to repeat the information.

All from me. NIce one, Hanzo. ~SavageBOB sig 14:57, May 31, 2012 (UTC)

  • The article's great. I just feel like there's a little too much line-by-line recounting of conversations in the Galaxies stuff (also known as the dreaded play-by-play!). "When the spacer asked why he had forgotten his kloo horn, Muse simply informed the offworlder that herding a pack of wayward Serenaders out in the middle of nowhere was no easy task;" "Muse mentioned that the Battling 166th Troubadours could now hold their rehearsals in the wilderness, which he said was for the best, given the quality of their performances." --- this level of detail is a bit much for the bio. Better to get the key points of conversations across without mentioning each line of dialogue, and leave this kind of info in Personality and traits. In fact, the stuff about performing in the wilds is already in P&T. Do you think the former example could find a home there too? Menkooroo (talk) 21:08, July 6, 2012 (UTC)

  • Honestly, I fail to see why we can't mention that his name is an anagram of "Gordon Sumner," the real name of the musician better known as Sting, without drawing a conclusion. I would argue that it's perfectly legal under WP:ATT. Even if you don't consider it a "logical deduction," it qualifies as a "straightforward mathematical calculation" based on counting the letters. -- Darth Culator (Talk) 17:17, May 31, 2012 (UTC)
    • I know, I thought that there was no reason not to include that in the behind the scenes section myself. Hanzo Hasashi 22:08, May 31, 2012 (UTC)
  • Guest nom for WP:VG and WP:SWG. Hanzo Hasashi 19:11, June 1, 2012 (UTC)
  • Will be away from the 30th to the 12th. I might still occasionally pop back on to check for objections, if not then I'll get to them afterwards. Hanzo Hasashi 03:54, June 26, 2012 (UTC)
