Attack of the Clone
  • Preliminary: as with Farstine, could you explain why just the Atlas maps are using page numbers? It would be ideal if all textual sources used page numbers for consistency, instead of only the Atlas maps. CC7567 (talk) 03:24, September 21, 2013 (UTC)
    • Generally, I added the page numbers for ease of fact checking. A lot of information is contained in the maps that could otherwise be overlooked. I've reffed the rest with page numbers, though. - Sir Cavalier of OneFarStar(Squadron channel) 19:45, September 22, 2013 (UTC)

  • "In 22 BBY, a large section of the city was destroyed when activists from the Mechanical Liberation Front attempted to "rescue" a shipment of Vindicator XM-15 "brilliant" missiles." I understand why it's there, but is this not redundant? Thefourdotelipsis (talk) 04:45, October 1, 2013 (UTC)
    • Possibly, but it does serve to stop the section being a single sentence, which is something I like to avoid. - Sir Cavalier of OneFarStar(Squadron channel) 22:17, October 14, 2013 (UTC)
The Clone
  • Is it necessary to list the Galactic Empire twice in the infobox affiliations field? I realize that it's being done for thoroughness, but in theory it seems like if this is accepted as a practice, then some writers would see it cause to list a galactic government every time the planet shifts affiliation, even if it's only between two governments (i.e. they could list the New Republic and the Empire five times each, if the planet legitimately shifted allegiance all of those times)—which doesn't seem too practical, at least in my opinion. What do you think?
    • I see your point here. However, the two Galactic Empires are different entities - the first is the Galactic Empire established after the Clone Wars, while the second is the state that evolved out of the Imperial Remnant to become the Empire post-Vong war. We just don't have an article for that (in fact, the Remnant article covers it, but we may need to look into that further since IU the Remnant basically becomes the Empire).
  • Does the planet's sun deserve an article? It sounds like it might, given that it's been directly referred to in canon.
    • I'm generally against creating such things. The recent spate of TCs on background extras leads me to believe it would be superfluous, but I'll create it if you're insistent.
  • A bit of background on Cassander Tadrin in the History, please.
    • Added.
  • In the infobox and at the end of History, should Roan Fel's "Empire-in-Exile" (which is pipelinked to the Fel Empire) instead be linked to the actual Empire-in-exile (the one founded in 130 ABY)?
    • Should be Empire-in--Exile. Adjusted.
  • A question about the infobox/categories: if New Bakstre is located within the borders of a government (per the Atlas), i.e. the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the Empire-in-exile, do you consider those as official affiliations? The reason I ask is because the infobox lists them as official affiliations, but the categories aren't entirely consistent—the article is in the Separatist planets category, but not in the Fel Empire planets category, which it appears it should be. Please clarify. CC7567 (talk) 15:40, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
    • If there's any oversights in terms of categories, then its generally a result of the planetary allegiance categories being very poorly organized and I tend to overlook them. I've added a couple which are currently redlinks, but the entire alignment category issue needs looking at in the future. - Sir Cavalier of OneFarStar(Squadron channel) 10:11, October 16, 2013 (UTC)
Exiled Jed
  • With the two category redlinks and the two redlinks in the body, you are over the redlink limit. I'm not sure if the category redlinks are disallowed by rule 8 or not.--Exiled Jedi Oldrepublic crest (Greetings) 04:24, October 21, 2013 (UTC)
