    • Grand Admiral Josef Grunger, who was busy aiding Takel's forces in the search for "white-skinned marauders" (presumably the Nagai) - presuming that they are the Nagai is speculation. Were they or weren't they? If it isn't definite, then the reference to the Nagai should be removed. - Cavalier OneFarStar(Squadron channel) 13:43, April 14, 2010 (UTC)
      • It doesn't say "Nagai" in the text, but this is a reference to the Nagai. The exact same wording is used to describe them in Star Wars 101. Would a reference to that comic work? Cull Tremayne 18:41, April 14, 2010 (UTC)
      • Eh, never mind. It's still speculation, and I can't find anything where Abel and Dan confirm that's what they were referencing. Cull Tremayne 22:29, April 14, 2010 (UTC)
        • The Forgotten War takes the "white-skinned marauders" comment and puts it directly in the context of the Nagai's operations in the Mandalore Sector. jSarek 06:20, April 15, 2010 (UTC)
          • I knew there was some confirmation out there somewhere. I just pipe-linked that reference to Nagai with a ref to JMM's article. Thanks. Cull Tremayne 06:24, April 15, 2010 (UTC)
  3. Toprawa:
    • The way this sentence is worded kind of makes it seem like it was part of Thrawn's Grand Admiral induction ceremony. Can we clarify this as being separate at all? Perhaps something like, "Later, at a meeting..." I'm not sure the circumstances of these events, so I didn't want to make the change first: "At a meeting with Darth Vader, Palpatine, and Thrawn, Takel witnessed a holographic readout of the Death Star II."
      • Good point, added "Later".
    • Can we link or at least leave a redlink for this first officer character? "Immediately after receiving word of the defeat at Endor, Grunger opened fire on Takel's first officer"
      • Redlinked. I linked it to "his", but is there another way to link it while keeping the link to executive officer intact?
        • In the absence of an actual name for the character, I think the way you linked it is probably best. Both links are still present this way at least. Toprawa and Ralltiir 22:19, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
    • I have a slight grievance regarding his "first appearance" in the Appearances list. You specify the NewsNets article from AJ 5 as his first appearance. However, if that article is like the other NewsNets as I understand them, it's really just a news story. So unless Takel is literally quoted in the story or something like that, I don't think that's appropriate to list as a true "first appearance." Instead, I feel "first mentioned" would be more fitting. And then whichever source he does in fact "appear" in would instead be his first true "first appearance." Feel free to speak with me about this on IRC if you want. Toprawa and Ralltiir 21:36, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
      • That makes sense, I'll rejigger it. Cull Tremayne 21:50, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
