Pros: My vote brings this article closer to FA status. Cons: Another WP:Resistance FA means Dani is gonna be happy. Fan26 (Talk) 23:25, 17 January 2024 (UTC)- - Thannus (DFaceG) (he/him) (talk) 23:52, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

I don't see any use of singular they on slide 11 but do on slide 10, did you mean to cite that?Editoronthewiki (talk) 00:54, 14 October 2023 (UTC)- My bad forgot to change the slide number when copy pasting; fixed.—spookywillowwtalk 01:22, 14 October 2023 (UTC)

"As the interrogation begins, the temple explorer calls to the troopers, holding the artifact. They demand she hand it over, so she obliges." I'm not really sure if it's fair to assume Raith's pronouns based on this. Raith is the one who verbally asks Mika to hand over the relic, but I feel like this may just be a plural they referring to "the troopers" from the previous sentence.

- Curiously, I'd left it out originally under that reasoning, but ended up adding it back in post-nom after talking with Lew and Dani. I do somewhat agree that it's in a place that would make sense for a pronoun to be (it could've been "he demands she hand it over" or "Raith demands..."). I'm not too fussed either way but might be good to get some wider opinions so whichever it is will stick.—spookywillowwtalk 15:06, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
- One point Dani brought up, which I think is fair, is sticking with the current for now, and if another source down the lines uses he/him pronouns (for example) in regards to Raith then being open to switching to using those instead as it is more clear cut. Lewisr (talk) 16:27, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
- I just think the use of a singular pronoun wouldn't make sense here as the episode gallery mentions the Raiders only as a group without singling out any of them, but sticking with "they" for now sounds good to me. Anıl Şerifoğlu (talk) 21:32, 15 October 2023 (UTC)

Is it possible to give further context for who "Doza and Fenris's droids" were, like I assume this means their astromechs?Fan26 (Talk) 20:27, 15 January 2024 (UTC)- Fair enough, added with their names to USWNE.—spookywillowwtalk 22:01, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
Fred strikes back
I know it's been brought up before but I do have to object to the use of singular they. Pronouns require a noun beforehand to introduce the subject. Raith is never even mentioned in the entire slideshow, but the Raiders as a group are. Even if in the episode only has Raith making the comment, the slideshow is clearly attributing it to the group. I think it's best to remove they/them as their pronouns in the infobox and categories and just them as placeholder pronouns in the prose.Master Fredcerique(talk) (he/him) 06:05, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
- Is what the last was about that. Which I don't currently have much to add to.—spookywillowwtalk 14:15, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
- Duly noted and totally fair. Addressed. :) Master Fredcerique(talk) (he/him) 16:46, 22 January 2024 (UTC)

I think it would be worthwhile to mention Kaz's affiliation with the Resistance; "spy" is good but it should be noted who he was spying for, especially given the subject's already overarching context of the FO-Resistance War. - Thannus (DFaceG) (he/him) (talk) 07:37, 22 February 2024 (UTC)- Added.—spookywillowwtalk 02:50, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
