Oppose

  • Infobox image of poor quality. Rule 15.--Shaelas(HoloConference)Czerka 23:20, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Cut content within prose. .... 00:14, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
    • By that I assume you mean culling. Will can do. -Solus (Bird of Prey) 00:15, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
      • No, I mean the cut content should not be noted within the main body of the article. .... 00:20, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
        • Oh, okay. I'll revert my culling and take out the cut content. -Solus (Bird of Prey) 00:24, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
          • Done. -Solus (Bird of Prey) 00:30, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
            • Actually, the cut content is meant to stay in the main body of the article as the CT ended with no consensus on having it removed. That's the entire point in the cutstart and cutend templates. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 13:34, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Speculation/pointless comments:
    • "Though an insect" - is that confirmed? They're called "insectoid" everywhere else in the article.
    • "It is unknown if they could walk up walls." Why note this?
    • "they lowered themselves to the ground to reduce air drag" - is this canon or speculation?
    • Not part of the above examples, but "They emitted a shrieking, clicking, chirping kind of scream." just sounds really unencyclopedic. - Lord Hydronium 10:41, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
      • This has been mostly addressed. In the third example, it is a fact that they lowered themselves, though 'to reduce air drag' is speculation and has been removed. For the last example, may I know what is unencyclopedic about it? I am not questioning you, I just am unable to fix it until I know what to fix. -Solus (Bird of Prey) 17:35, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
        • It's all those adjectives piled on in a row, along with "kind of"; it sounds very informal. - Lord Hydronium 02:54, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
          • Okay, I think this has been taken care of. It's been changed to "a chirping shriek."-Solus (Bird of Prey) 11:30, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Lead quote is unsourced. Green Tentacle (Talk) 21:13, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose under Rule 17. Only around 900 words. --Eyrezer 04:42, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Comments

  • Another experiment. May have fanwankery, but that's why the Inqs have a shot at it. For the Wookiee-Cast thingy. NOTE: See big note under the GH-7 nom. Right now! I demand it. -Solus (Bird of Prey) 22:56, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
  • You must put in more images before I can vote.--Shaelas(HoloConference)Czerka 23:14, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
  • More quotes are available I think.--Shaelas(HoloConference)Czerka 23:23, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
    • Yes, but you'll have to give me some time to get to the part in the game and take notes. Bear with me. PS I have to play it on another computer that mine can't talk to, because my computer can't play TSL, so I can't toss a screencap from that computer to mine, and I am unable to upload images on the other. Just to clear up any confusion.-Solus (Bird of Prey) 23:50, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
  • This has been deemed an appropriate submission for the Wookiee-Cast Featured Article Competition. .... 00:23, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
