Do we know who illustrated the Laboi? --Eyrezer 10:31, March 2, 2011 (UTC)Does their homeworld appear on any map in the Atlas? If so that would make a nice illustration for the article. --Eyrezer 10:31, March 2, 2011 (UTC)- The image is either Michael Manley or Aaron McClellan, but GG4 doesn't specify who did which illustrations. Do you think it's worth mentioning them both? As for the Atlas, alas, no Laboi system is pictured. ~ SavageBob 02:59, March 4, 2011 (UTC)
- I would say that there no need to mention the possible artists. --Eyrezer 10:10, March 6, 2011 (UTC)

"Despite their lack of modern galactictechnology…" Why is galactic technology a single word? Seems like it shouldn't be."Female Laboi gave birth to litters of young known as worms." Particular reason for the italics?"…made both the local day and night 2,020 standard hours long." This can be interpreted that the day and night were totally 2,020 hours; I'd just say they were totally 4,040 hours long.- And that's all. 1358 (Talk) 13:00, March 15, 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review! Your first point was a typo, so fixed. The reason for the second is that the word worms is being used here as a word, and not as the thing it refers to. It's a "word as a word" as described here. And the day thing, I want to preserve the symmetry of it, since that's what's supposed to be remarkable in the Laboi II case. Is the new wording any better? ~ SavageBob 16:20, March 15, 2011 (UTC)
