Floyd
  • Intro: "In 22 BBY, he survived the war's initiation on the planet Geonosis. During the conflict," This "conflict" at the end reads as if it's talking about the war's initiation, the Battle of Geonosis. Obviously this is not the case, so I think it probably should be changed.
  • Intro: "from the politicians on Malastare." What politicians on Malastare?
  • I don't really like calling the Battle of Geonosis the "initiation" of the Clone Wars - it's a little too vague. I'd prefer something like "opening battle".
  • Your link says that RC-1013's squad was called "White Squad", but you never mention this name in the article.
  • "Sarge's team secured a position on top of one of the buildings," What buildings? Where exactly was this?
  • "RC-1013 and his squad pursued the speeder into the industrial yards" Again, what industrial yards? This seems to be an urban area, but no idea where.
  • Nice work. IFYLOFD (Floyd's crib) 03:48, March 9, 2013 (UTC)
    • All taken care of. To answer the fourth objection, the names of the squads are conjectural, which is why they are referred to by other terms in the article. Thanks for the review, Floyd!—Jedi Kasra ("Indeed.") 04:12, March 9, 2013 (UTC)
      • Almost forgot, answer for the second objection. I corrected it to diplomats, and the story never says who they are.—Jedi Kasra ("Indeed.") 04:22, March 9, 2013 (UTC)
Cav
  • First off, is Sarge explicitly stated to be his nickname, or are they just calling him Sarge because he's a sergeant?
    • It doesn't appear to be officially clear, so I reworded the first sentence in the bio.
  • Article for the Republic outpost on Garqi?
    • Fixed and linked, though this also takes care of the fifth objection.
  • Article for Sarge's first squad lost on Geonosis?
    • Redlinked.
  • The last Trandoshan probably deserves an article.
  • Is the refugee camp the same as the Republic outpost in the intro? If not, another article needs to be created.
    • Please see above.
  • Height needs to be mentioned in the PT. - Sir Cavalier of OneFarStar(Squadron channel) 22:36, April 2, 2013 (UTC)
Cadeth
  • Should Aiwha Squad be a child of RC-1013's first squad in the affiliation bullets?
  • ".. Republic's sieges in the Outer Rim." Sieges of what?
  • You have White Squad pipelinked as RC-1013's first squad in the infobox, but a redlink for "RC-1013's first squadron" in the bio. From what I've read, the pipelinking is incorrect, and both White Squad and the first squad should be in the infobox.
  • Also, squadron is for ships, not people.
  • In the equipment section, if you have a sentence with more than one reference, they should be in numerical order - i.e., [2][4] instead of [4][2] as it is currently.
  • Good work. Cade GalacticRepublicEmblem-Traced-TORkit Calrayn 16:27, April 22, 2013 (UTC)
Attack of the Clone
  • "RC-1013 and his squad pursued the speeder into the industrial yards of the city and eliminated a team of B1 battle droids after entering one of the buildings while tracking the mercenaries": please break up this sentence somehow. The "after" and "while" in particular are making the order of events rather confusing. CC7567 (talk) 18:11, May 14, 2013 (UTC)

  • Many thanks to Master Jonathan for a copy-edit and pre-nom review.—Jedi Kasra ("Indeed.") 05:21, March 6, 2013 (UTC)
  • Never read the comic, but you note him having brown hair when he's depicted as bald. Did earlier scenes depict him with brown hair before he became bald? Hanzo Hasashi (talk) 21:49, April 19, 2013 (UTC)
    • He actually has a brown patch of hair atop the middle of his head.—Jedi Kasra ("Indeed.") 21:57, April 19, 2013 (UTC)
