  • Done Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 04:26, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
    • Disney+ has his contribution as "Grand Moff Tarkin" for ANH and I believe practice is to match the credits. RO credits "With Special Acknowledgement to" NBDani (they/them)^{Yeager's Repairs} 17:43, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
      • Updated Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 09:07, 30 September 2023 (UTC)

ThrawnChiss

• Add The Star Wars Archives: Episodes I–III, 1999–2005 and Star Wars Year by Year: A Visual Chronicle (updated edition) to sources. ThrawnChiss7 ^{Assembly Cupola} 23:35, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
• Star Wars Year by Year: A Visual Chronicle (updated edition) mentions that Cushing became an OBE due to his contributions to the film industry. I think that may be relevant to mention here. ThrawnChiss7 ^{Assembly Cupola} 23:42, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
  • Good picks! Both addressed. Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 10:08, 28 November 2023 (UTC)

Macaroni

• I think a bunch of the Wikipedia links you have are unneeded – proper nouns should be fine, but linen, lavender, autograph, and halitosis seem unnecessary to me. JediMasterMacaroni^(Talk) 23:11, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
  • Done Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 04:08, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
• I would be comfortable just WebCiting the currency conversion link. At the very least, that's how the link should be formatted if you'd like to keep the math explanation. JediMasterMacaroni^(Talk) 06:36, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

spookly

• Seems like a mention in "Cavan Scott's Wild Adventure," which gives a bit of reasoning why Scott chose to include that Vader's Castle bit (to be also added to sources).—spookywilloww^talk 21:33, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
  • Done Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 16:29, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

Lew

• It seems this SW.com article and Star Wars Insider: The Galaxy's Greatest Villains are missing from sources. I'm unsure if there's anything new in it but there appears to be an interview with Cushing within that should be checked incase Lewisr (talk) 00:31, 29 January 2024 (UTC)
  • Done thanks to Fred and JMAS, mostly existing info Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 11:25, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

• Have just added the awards and nominations section, had to use IMDB for the sourcing as the Saturn Awards own website doesn't have functional archives for the 1970s and I can't find even a slightly better source for it. Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 05:39, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
