  2. A great antagonist, but not a bad guy at the finish. -- Delmar Nori 00:11, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
  3. Inqvote Stupid concept, good article. Chack Jadson (Talk) 19:15, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
  4. Inqvote Clean, compelling prose. Excellent. Toprawa and Ralltiir 20:03, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
  5. Inqvote I absolutely love how you treat such an utterly ridiculous subject with total seriousness. Only on Wookieepedia could anyone embrace this kind of madness. -- Darth Culator (Talk) 06:13, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
  6. Inqvote Damnit, Cull...you're making me want to go back to this stuff. :P Thefourdotelipsis 00:10, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

  1. From the Merciless Hammer of Toprawa:
    • This reads as though they performed in front of multiple audiences. If so, please change "audience" to its plural form: "the Jindas took up an occupation as entertainers, relying on gifts from their audience to maintain their nomadic lifestyle"
      • Changed to the plural.
    • Please provide a brief descriptor for who/what these are: "and been captured by Skandits."
      • Clarifier added.
    • I understand what you're saying here, but "large gestures" just sounds awkward. Could you describe that in a different way?: "making large gestures as he uprooted the terrain" Toprawa and Ralltiir 17:33, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
      • Is "wild gestures" any better? Or is a total reword needed? Cull Tremayne 19:25, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
        • Perfect. Toprawa and Ralltiir 20:03, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

Why it's a stupid concept? Is it because the Rock Wizard was a stone creature, with unknown species? -- Delmar Nori 23:16, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

  • The idea that he flipped out because he lost a tooth strikes me as very peculiar. I actually like whatever species he is though; it's a unique look.
    • I understand. -- Delmar Nori 01:35, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

Not an objection, but like a Sith lord he seems to have an evil eye color change going on in those pictures. You might want to put that in the infobox. Yrfeloran 02:57, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Good point, though how does that go? Is it Blue/Red (dark side)? Or is it a semicolon? Cull Tremayne 04:03, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
