Object

1. If he was killed, we need a approximate date of his death in the intro. Clone Commander Lee ^Talk 09:06, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
   • He was killed, but no source specifies the time when. So doing so would be speculation. Grunny (talk) 09:11, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
     • Then possibly take the last date known and write something like: after 3 BBY? Clone Commander Lee ^Talk 09:30, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
       • That's implied earlier when I state "Around 3 ABY," so the reader already knows it's after 3 ABY. Grunny (talk) 09:33, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
         • Well, I won't hold this objection. Clone Commander Lee ^Talk 09:47, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

• While I agree with your reasoning not to include a date of death, you should at least mention something about the time of his death in the body. If Batch fled following Imdaar Alpha's destruction in 3 ABY, he would have at least survived until after the Battle of Endor in 4 ABY, when Harrsk established Zero Command. (Mentioning Palpatine's death at Endor in the body would probably be a good idea, too.)
  • Added.
• One other thing: You mention that Batch's crew (or just the Terror's crew?) were still loyal to Sarn, yet you don't mention what happened to the admiral.
  • Mentioned. Who's Who: Imperial Grand Admirals says Batch's crew.
• Very nice. One step closer to having all the Grand Admirals reach featured status. Grand Moff Tranner ^(Comlink) 19:39, August 30, 2010 (UTC)
  • Thanks for the review :-). Just Thrawn to go. Grunny (talk) 21:22, August 30, 2010 (UTC)
