Oppose

1. From the unknown location of Jorrel Fraajic,
   • No mention of C-3PX?
     • Wasn't in any of his listed sources. Source me. Havac 22:07, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
       • NEGtD. Not sure where it gets its information from, though.
   • "To that end, Sienar assumed a series of false identities and took work with competing firms, moving through the management of the Corellian Engineering Corporation, Baktoid Armor Workshop, Incom Corporation, and even the Trade Federation, where he gained firsthand experience undercover, without the distraction of his family name, and picked up various techniques from his competitors." - Seems long and unwieldy. I do know what you're saying, but others may not.
     • Do not question the long sentences! I'll split it. Havac 22:07, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
   • "Sienar was highly successful, however, paying minute attention to the market, closely and effectively managing his employees, and keeping his facilities small and centralized on Coruscant, where Sienar maintained an apartment in the elite 500 Republica building." - Same as the objection above.
     • Hmmm. Maybe just because I'm the crazy bastard who wrote it, but I'm not seeing too much of a problem there. I did have to stick the 500 Republica thing on there just to keep it from being a dangling fact, but I don't think the sentence suffers too much from it. Havac 22:07, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
       • Like I said, I do know what you're saying, I'm just not sure others will. But, I am appeased. Struck.

     That looks like it to me. Good work, and a very interesting read. ^Jorrel _Fraajic 15:26, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

2. That younger Tarkin image has some awful scanner artifact action going on. -- Ozzel 05:02, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
   • Fixed. -- Ozzel 05:44, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
3. File:Raith Sienar NEGTC.jpg is placed in the BTS, but has already been used for the infobox. Remove the duplicate. --Imperialles 22:36, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
   • One's the full image, one's been cropped to be infobox-appropriate, and there's a lack of full Sienar images. I don't see the problem. - Lord Hydronium 23:00, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
     • The problem is that the same picture appears in the same article twice. It's pointless repetition. --Imperialles 23:02, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
       • It's not pointless, though. The full picture shows unique information that the others don't. - Lord Hydronium 23:11, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
         • His …robe and shoes? --Imperialles 23:14, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
           • Yep. Doesn't matter if you don't think it's not important, but it's visual information found in none of the other pictures. - Lord Hydronium 23:21, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
4. The above was resolved per IRC. Now, I'd like to see File:Raith Sienar NEGTC.jpg made relevant to the section. How about a short paragraph on his wardrobe? --Imperialles 23:26, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
   • Umm, why? "Raith Sienar wore these clothes." There are two extant images of Sienar, and this is one. So it's in the article. It's relevant to the section because the section is about Sienar as a person, and hey, here he is. It's a NEGTC image; it is, by definition, without context. It shows him and it's put where it fits. This is just about the silliest objection I've seen. Havac 04:32, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
