00:03, 2 October 2006 (UTC) - Superb. Though I still wince at that bit about the DSII. Oh well. .... 11:43, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
- I did work on it a few weeks ago and it is definitely worthy. Chack Jadson 21:54, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Objections
- More details from Tales of the Bounty Hunters need to be added in my opinion. It just needs more details in general, what did IG-88 do with Drebble? What was his role in Young Jedi Knights: Diversity Alliance? Did he meet the Solos? If so, how? Also, Greck is still mentioned as being killed on Indobok. I don't remember that. Also, where did IG-88 appear in The Bounty Hunters: Kenix Kil? Cull Tremayne 06:38, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
- There still needs to be a lot of work done here. Needs a serious copyedit- not just spelling and grammar, but diction and syntax also in order to be FA quality. The word "He" is used as the subject in a large number of sentences, particularly in the intro. On top of that, it's rather biased towards IG-88 rather than NPOV.

Comments
- It was redondent information at the beginning of the artical (it says what company created it twice). Fix that and you have my vote. Darth Red Head 15:07, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
- Fixed that. Roron Corobb 23:18, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
- Once I add something to it(primarilly more information, and perhaps restructuring and editing the written elements...) I will cast my vote, for right now, I support my nomination of Nute Gunray, who is doing very nicely right now...It would be wise for all of you to vote for him I think.--CountDooku13(Hyper-Communications Cartel)[[File:Cislogo.png|20px]] 11:25, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
- It still needs more... I'll vote for it soon.
- I'll vote right now and edit it a little later.--CountDooku13(Hyper-Communications Cartel)[[File:Cislogo.png|20px]] 11:01, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
- Alright that is all I think, I couldn't do anything else, so I think it is ready.--CountDooku13(Hyper-Communications Cartel)[[File:Cislogo.png|20px]] 22:07, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
- I made a few changes and have given it my vote. However, I think some of the info in the intro is not actually in the article, ie the arm pulling etc. That would be better placed elsewhere. --Eyrezer 00:41, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
- Looks great. It's such a reconizible droid. -- Jabbathehuttgartogg(Rancor pit)

- I assumed you misplaced your vote in Objections, so I put it in Support. Hope that's alright, and thank you.--IG-Prime(Sentience Core)[[File:Cislogo.png|20px]] 00:08, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
- oops....sorry. -- Jabbathehuttgartogg(Rancor pit)
00:10, 2 October 2006 (UTC) - Unfortunately, I don't know any of that stuff, though if there is anything from Therefore I am, I'll put it in. Also Mister Objection, why do you have to do that? It was stuffed with information already, and are you sure all that has to do with IG-88A (emphasis on A) not just IG-88 in general? If you are I'll have to remove your objection, as this is the IG-88A article, not IG-88.--IG-Prime(Sentience Core)[[File:Cislogo.png|20px]] 10:00, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
- Why do I have to do that? Because the article is not up to featured article standards. It is not "stuffed with information". There are only five sections in the main body, and two of them only have one paragraph. Yes, I am positive that "all that" has to do with IG-88A, and the stuff I'm not positive about (which appears in the article), I already brought up in the objections (appearance in the Kenix Kil comic, Greck's death). Is this how you deal with criticism? By threatening to remove it? How about fixing the article first? If you have Therefore I am, why don't you add details from that story? Three things off the top of my head (1) The fight at Holowan Laboratories. Who did he kill? How did he do it? (2) Subjugating Mechis III. How did the Droid Rebellion take place? Who was killed? (3) Vader's inspection. What was he doing at the time? How did they turn Gurdun and Vader away? The level of detail there is good for the IG-88's role on the Death Star, but details on the beginning of the story are severely lacking. Also, as was said last time this article was up for a vote. It needs expansion on IG-88's role in the Marvel comics, that stub is not enough if the article is to be featured. Cull Tremayne 14:50, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
- I apologize for my comments. I was just really grumpy this morning. As for critisism, I am not used to it. You sound just like I do, sometimes. I have no excuse for my tone. You have my full apologies, you are right, it does need more detail. I was not in the right to bark at you. For that I am sorry, and I will add more detail to the aricle, but beyond Therefore I am, I know almost nothing about his life. I will need more help if this is to achieve FA status. I apologize once again.--IG-Prime(Sentience Core)[[File:Cislogo.png|20px]] 16:27, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
- No worries, I know how early mornings can be. Please understand that I wasn't trying to insult the character. I just thought that the article needed more work. Cull Tremayne 17:26, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
- I understand, I will improve the article as soon as I can.--IG-Prime(Sentience Core)[[File:Cislogo.png|20px]] 18:34, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

- I really like this artical, but the neutrality needs work in my opinion. It also uses "He" a lot, and that kind of messes it up, but I still voted for it. --Maaul--(Send Message|Enlist|Request Reinforcments) 16:50, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
