Jabba the Hutt

  1. I beleive it's a very popular article. I loved reading it and adding stuff of my own. Though it does have a few red links, but I will more than willingly clear them up. Plus it's a huge artical and tons of people add on to it almost every day. --Jabbathehuttgartogg
  2. ok i am replacing my vote again on the grounds that i assume it wont be changed too much anymore Ugluk 23:21, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
  3. Very near to a featured article though images do need to be cleared up. MyNz 00:20, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
  4. I fixed a ton of the stylistic, grammar, spelling, etc. issues. I think it's worthy of a nomination now. Plus, there's stuff from the Han Solo Trilogy in there now. Cutch 04:41, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
  5. The "Beauty and the Beast" section still reads a little roughly, but the article's great; it's very informative and entirely worthy of nomination. Hell, it even made me like Jabba more. Jwebb13 15:10, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Objections

  • I still think it needs alot of work before its FA material, maybe with less redlinks, plus theres still alot better FA worthy articles. Jedi Dude 16:16, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Agreed. Needs to be rearranged, fixed up a littlebit, expanded and checked over and over for proper grammar. --RedemptionTalk [[File:Oldrepublic.jpg|15px]] 05:44, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
  • I agree i'll go through and fix up the grammar and spelling, i have a pretty good eye for that (please disregard lower case "I"s throughout response ;)) Ugluk 03:14, 20 August 2006 (UTC) ***Update*** I went through and fixed all the spelling or grammar errors i could find. Ugluk 04:06, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Needs more info on the Jabba the Hutt: The Art of the Deal comics Stake black msg21:33, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
    • What more info.? I put everything from the book onto the page into my own words.It's covered. --Jabbathehuttgartogg 21:38, 22 August 2006 (UTC) DesilijicEmblem-TheOfficialSWFactFile DesilijicEmblem-TheOfficialSWFactFile
  • Info is good, images are good, grammar, syntax, etc. need serious work from someone who knows what it is supposed to say. I would do it, but I think something would get lost in translation. Almost worthy of a cleanup tag. Atarumaster88 02:32, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
  • I take it back. While I have fixed the grammar issues, there is almost NOTHING in there from the Han Solo trilogy. Cutch 04:48, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Looks good overall, but it needs a longer intro. You also might consider cutting some of the fair use images. Adamwankenobi 23:48, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
  • i am also revoking my vote, i went through and fixed all the grammar and spelling twice but some doofus (Jabbathehuttgortag or cutch) either goes back and reverts it or adds more with terrible grammar/spelling. before this is FA material somebody needs to learn the english language. Ugluk 22:41, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
    • Ummmmmm ..... It's Jabbathehuttgartogg. Thank you very much. --Jabbathehuttgartogg DesilijicEmblem-TheOfficialSWFactFile DesilijicEmblem-TheOfficialSWFactFile 22:47, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
    • On second thought .... Yo, that was harsh man. If I'm such a "Dufis" Howcome I know so much about jabba ..... Hmmmmm? It's Jabbathehuttgartogg pally and I'm ussally a nice guy. Cutch is nice too, we just get so caught up in the work, we forget grammer. I can belive a lot of users dissagree with you, if you knew who i was and what i (Tried) to do for Jack Nebulax ; created a very usfull template ; Protected jabba (Sort of) from Vandels ; Used my time and energy to make a wonderfull userpage ; Made freinds ; accually found someone who would work on Jabba and so on. That remark was unfair at best dude, and that's in it's technical term... --Jabbathehuttgartogg DesilijicEmblem-TheOfficialSWFactFile DesilijicEmblem-TheOfficialSWFactFile 23:03, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
      • Oh come on leave it the pair of you, this is not the place go to each others users page, don't be so rude Uklug some people aren't as good typers or have diffuculties with grammer and to be honest you havn't been here long enough to start throwing comments like that around, and Jabba you shoudln't bother responding and presume to speak for other users at the same time, end of this discussion take it further on your user pages as you have already made this look unprofiessional with your argument Jedi Dude 23:29, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
        • I'll be a peace-maker. I'm not going to argue. This is rediculous. --Jabbathehuttgartogg DesilijicEmblem-TheOfficialSWFactFile DesilijicEmblem-TheOfficialSWFactFile 23:47, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
  • There is a ton of great information here, but the sentence structure and just writing in general is bad... very bad, to the point where the article becomes confusing at times. It needs major, major, major copy-editing before it becomes an FA. - Breathesgelatin 19:18, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
    • Per Breathesgelatin Cull Tremayne 19:54, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
      • Per Breathesgelatin. --Imp 23:49, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
  • The "ton" of information in here is what I have some issues with. Yes, there's a ton of it, but some parts are overdone- meaning we don't need a play-by-play. No other major characters have it and no other FAs are written to that level of detail. NPOV is another problem I see with this article, especially with use of adjectives such as "vile" and ambiguous verbs. If anyone has problems with what I see, you know where to find me.

    • Per Breathesgelatin and Atarumaster88 —Mirlen 05:08, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
  • This is still up! wow. -- Jabbathehuttgartogg(Rancor pit) GrappasTattoo-CrimsonEmpireII 21:37, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
