Objections

  1. From the desk of Atarumaster88
    • Reference Cygnus Spaceworks in infobox please.
    • Would it be possible to get an idea of what the Missile Boats were fighting induring the Voryxnx and research facility attack? The bit about the 3 Carracks is nice, but what were the research platforms attacked by? Capital ships? Fighters? A meticulous count is not needed, just a general idea of opposition.
    • Links to specific actions against Zaarin, Bothans, etc. please.
    • A bit more context on rescuing Palpatine please. If that wasn't the last sortie, it needs to be placed before the last sortie part. If it was, the rest of the article needs adjusted.
    • Have a Super Terrific Friendly Un-frustrating day. Atarumaster88 Jedi Order (Talk page) 03:48, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
      • All issues except Cygnus source, and Un-frustrating day addressed--MIS Tau 1 08:33, 26 August 2007 (UTC).
        • Manufacturer has been sources, and my day is good to go now.--MIS Tau 1 22:21, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
  2. Source for "Most fans consider the original, sleeker representation from TIE Fighter to be the "true" representation"? - Lord Hydronium 09:22, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
    • That was prior to my edit. Removed.--MIS Tau 1 10:55, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
  3. Hmm. Source the name, please. Green Tentacle (Talk) 13:50, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
    • Moved to Missile Boat until the name can be sourced. Gonk (Gonk!) 17:22, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
      • Thank you Gonk. I still have yet to find anysource for this title, see the MIS Talk page concerning this issue.--MIS Tau 1 22:35, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
  4. I'd like to see some more context added to the beginning of the History section. When did all this take place? Clarify that it was introduced in the Galactic Civil War. --Imperialles 19:50, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
    • Information added.--MIS Tau 1 11:59, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
  5. The model used in the Windows 95 version of TIE Fighter appears to be the same design as the one in X-wing Alliance. That should probably be mentioned in behind the scenes. Green Tentacle (Talk) 21:12, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
    • As an addendum to that, it was also used in the second re-release. I'd actually be inclined to say that's the canon version. Thefourdotelipsis 00:28, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
      • Note added about WIN95 version--MIS Tau 1 12:02, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
