Object

Code-8
  • In the prelude the link to the Battle of Onderon is incorrectly tensed.
    • Done.
  • The sentence that links to the Republic navy is in present tense
    • Done.
  • In the speakers bit for the quote in the Influenced to war section its unclear whether Revan or Canderous is saying the quote
    • Done.
  • In the first paragraph of the war section you repeat the words massacre and Cathar a bit too close together.
    • Technically, Cathar means both the species and world, but done. Cade GalacticRepublicEmblem-Traced-TORkit Calrayn 23:06, May 12, 2014 (UTC)
  • Will continue the review later. Great work here :) Commander Code-8 Felicitations malefactors! 10:19, April 14, 2014 (UTC)
  • First Battle of Omonoth, you link to and introduce Meetra Surik when this is already done in the Serroco section.
    • Done.
  • The Revanchists join the fight the Council misinterprets the vision—actually referring to the forthcoming Jedi Civil War Please fix the tensing.
    • Done.
  • I'm up to the Mandalorian Triumph. Also I've sofixed some typos for you. Commander Code-8 Felicitations malefactors! 00:21, May 16, 2014 (UTC)
  • In the last paragraph of the Mandalorian Knights section there's a few sentences where you repeat Kace's name a few too many times.
    • Done.
  • You could also probably expand the sizes of some of the images as its a little hard to see what's really happening in some of them. Commander Code-8 Felicitations malefactors! 11:59, May 26, 2014 (UTC)
    • Done.
  • Could we get an article for the Republic captain killed at the Battle of Jaga's Cluster?
    • Redlinked.
  • The "Driving them back" sectino has a repeat link to Meetra Surik.
    • Done.
  • I think you've missed a link to the Battle of Malachor V in that section.
    • Done.
  • There's a bit in the second last paragraph in the aftermath where you refer to Mandalore the Preserver as Ultimate.
    • Objection(s) overridden by Inquisitorius 20:10, January 8, 2015 (UTC)
    • Nope; it was Ultimate's reforms that were the most effective.
  • In the aftermath Mandalorians subsection could you give a little info on how Canderous and Revan became buddies?
    • Done.
  • In the first Bts paragraph I think we need a source for Miller using the comics to develop the Mandalorians into a fighting force.
  • That could be it for now but I might double-check some things. Commander Code-8 Felicitations malefactors! 08:02, June 7, 2014 (UTC)
  • There appearances section says it appears in a TCW episode as a mural, can this be mentioned in the Bts?
    • Eh, there's no need to mention every appearance in the BTS.
  • "The advance is halted" there's a redirect to the Obroa-skai system. Commander Code-8 Felicitations malefactors! 05:44, June 9, 2014 (UTC)

  • The article needs to be updated with the Mandalorian Wars' mention in the Imperial Handbook. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 22:39, January 9, 2015 (UTC)

  • I was unaware I was so persuasive. :P MasterFredCommerce Guild(Whatever) 04:14, February 10, 2014 (UTC)
  • In "Prelude", the relationship between Mandalore the Ultimate and Unidentified Mandalore needs to be ironed out. Mostly because you are using this image, which may in fact be the Unidentified Mandalore based on the KOTOR sourcebook and Pena's intentions. And if so, there is some subtext about how Mandalore the Ultimate served the Sith, ie Mandalore the Ultimate being a Sith agent that secretly replaced the Unidentified Mandalore. This is the reason why Mandalore the Ultimate was removed from FA status, based on this comment under "From 4dot", and due to Mandalore the Ultimate's importance in this conflict, I think it needs to either be mentioned in the main body or ironed out in the BtS.
