  • Nomination comments: My final contribution to the barn-burner. I really thought this wouldn't make it past 1,000 words, but alas, it did.

  • There is currently a bit of infobox-exclusive info: his eye color.
    • Addressed.
  • Can you add some info to the BTS about who wrote the stories that featured him and who drew him? Also, who was the author who made the connection between Hronk and Tojjevvuk? That's it, nice work. ~SavageBOB sig 23:46, May 29, 2011 (UTC)
Hronk if you're hrorny
  • Should the In-universe Way of the Wookiee get an article?
    • It should and it got one.
  • Can you cut down a bit on the detail given when Hronk is asleep in the first paragraph of Rescued by the enemy? Solo protesting and then witnessing the stormtrooper attack might not be that relevant to Hronk.
    • Addressed.
  • The first bit of Rescued by the Enemy almost reads more from Chewie's perspective than it does Hronk's --- is there anything you can do about this? Removing the bit in the above objection would definitely help, but I'd also suggest rewording a couple of sentences to lead with Hronk rather than Chewie. eg, "The unconscious Hronk was carried by Chewbacca" rather than "Chewbacca carried the unconscious Hronk." Scratch that; I don't really like that idea. But definitely see if there's anything you can do to make it more from the POV of Hronk.
    • I tried to change it a bit. There's not much else I can do, as Hronk does nothing at all at this point.
  • Can you establish that Hronk wakes up? The articles goes from him being unconscious in a smuggling compartment to him participating in Chewie's plan.
    • Done.
  • All I got! Well-done. Menkooroo 10:08, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

  • I'm still uncertain as to how we should treat his appearances. Should I list the comics as they were originally published, separately, each under its own title, in Star Wars Weekly, or leave it as it is now, listing the entire story as it appeared in Marvel Illustrated Books? I understand that we usually list original publications and not reprints. On the other hand, this might fall under the rule that "if the character appears in every issue of the arc, list the arc and not the individual issues."
