Jaden Korr
- Nominated by: QuiGonJinn
(Talk) 10:28, August 15, 2014 (UTC) - Nomination comments: So, to sum things up. He's a dude chasing a clone of himself, who gets killed by another clone of himself. He then gets his memories transferred into that clone's body, so he becomes a clone of himself. Oh, and he might have been a clone to begin with. And he also finds out about a potential clone of Xizor. Enjoy the cloneception.

- A couple of preliminaries:
Korr's birth year is listed as c. 1 ABY, referenced to Crosscurrent as a character pegged him as forty years old. However, this means he was 13 during the events of Jedi Academy, correct? But the character model for the game doesn't really support this age for the character at all. What is the exact quote for his age from Crosscurrent? Is there some leeway to list his birth at prior to 1 ABY rather than circa? If not, some mention in the BTS about the character model seemingly not supporting the character's age should be mentioned. Of course, the clone angle might account for the discrepancy, but that was never confirmed.- Here's the exact quote from the novel: "Before Khedryn could raise a hand in greeting, a human thrust himself into Khedryn's space. The man was taller than Khedryn by a head. His neatly trimmed beard and short brown hair book-ended intense, haunted gray eyes, the kind Khedryn had seen in religious fanatics. Khedryn put him at forty years, maybe, about the time human men looked back on their lives, found them wanting, and turned stupid." Of course, Khedryn's guess might be wrong and Jaden could be older, but it's the only estimation we have. Mentioning the discrepancy in the Bts sounds like the best approach. Will work on that in a bit. QuiGonJinn (Talk) 17:41, August 14, 2015 (UTC)

For the Jedi Academy stuff, shouldn't there be 100% completion templates around it? As far as I remember, the player did not have to complete all the missions to proceed, and they could be done in any order. I know you list this in the BTS, but the article body should reflect this as well.- Sir Cavalier of One(Squadron channel) 15:37, August 14, 2015 (UTC)
- Added the necessary templates to paragraphs dealing with optional missions. The intro on Yavin, as well as the missions to Hoth, Vjun, Taspir III and Korriban are left out, as they are required to progress the plot. QuiGonJinn (Talk) 19:01, August 24, 2015 (UTC)

- Can you check these edits for accuracy? - Sir Cavalier of One(Squadron channel) 01:50, June 4, 2016 (UTC)
- Those were mostly correct. I've now adjusted the flow of events to how they actually transpired in the novel. My bad for getting that part wrong. QuiGonJinn (Talk) 21:19, June 28, 2016 (UTC)

"the young Jedi handled the deactivation of the tractor beams that prevented the Raven's Claw and the Falcon from taking off." This is the first mention of a tractor beam holding them in place. Can you mention it earlier when describing their arrival on Tatooine?Can you also add in a brief mention regarding why the ships were caught in a tractor beam?"he was confronted by another Sith Cultist" Is this the first Cultist he encountered since Yavin 4? If so, that should be clarifiedSupreme Emperor (talk) 04:46, May 22, 2017 (UTC)- All fixed. QuiGonJinn (Talk) 18:21, June 22, 2017 (UTC)
- All fixed. QuiGonJinn
- "a member of the same Sith Cult which had been sighted on Yavin" It's been a while since I played, but didn't Korr fight one of them on Yavin 4? If so, I would say "a member of the same Sith Cult which Korr previously fought on Yavin" or something along those lines.
- "The mercenaries were expensive, which indicated that the Imperial Remnant was probably financing the cult" Was the fact they were expensive the only indication the Remnant was behind it?
- "A team sent to investigate on the intrusion never made it back" Can you clarify it was a Bakuran team, not a Jedi team?
- "Korr waited for Katarn for a long time on the landing pad" Does the game clarify how much time? Supreme Emperor (talk) 03:18, September 1, 2017 (UTC)

Vote to remove nomination (Inq only)
- With regrets to QGJ, I'm starting this removal vote on the grounds of one-week old objections on a nomination whose nominator has not edited in more than a month. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 17:46, September 8, 2017 (UTC)
