Lee's charge
  • Infobox: Black needs to be linked to Color.
    • Sorry to butt in again, but no it does not, Lee. It's optional, but the nominator needs to be sure he/she isn't linking to a disambig page. JangFett (Talk) 17:28, January 5, 2012 (UTC) See your talk page. :P JangFett (Talk) 17:43, January 5, 2012 (UTC)
  • Infobox: AFAIK "formerly" needs to be placed behind the Rebel Alliance.
  • Intro: Mention that he is Human and male.
  • Intro: Some context for Dantooine, Bakura and Geonosis would be good. While it is pretty clear that they are planets, someone might think that this are locations on one world etc.
    • Specified DjMack 01:20, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
  • Intro: Underlinking, e.g. killed.
    • Lee, this could fall under {{SoFixIt}}. JangFett (Talk) 17:26, January 5, 2012 (UTC)
  • Body: Please find a better place for the picture than so close to the infobox.
    • Fixed DjMack 01:10, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
  • Life under the Rebellion: Mention that he is Human and male.
  • Life under the Rebellion: Sarkli was born the nephew of Admiral Firmus Piett of the Galactic Empire.: Word missing. Also some context for the Empire would be nice.
    • FixedDjMack 01:24, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
  • Life under the Rebellion: Context for the Rebels, Death Star, Red Squadron, AT-ST and Yavin IV and Dantooine.
    • Context...ified DjMack 01:20, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
  • Defection: One of the primary roles of the Imperial storm commandos was to acquire new technology for the Empire, and a planetary shield developed by the Ralltiir scientists was of great interest to the Empire.: Two times Empire in short order. Plus whats the role of the storm commandos there? You talked about scientists.
    • Clarified DjMack 01:10, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
      • Could you please find a synonym for one for one of the "Empire" mentions. Plus, the paragraph could use a little bit rewording, so that it is from Sarkli's POV. Clone Commander Lee Talk 09:17, January 14, 2012 (UTC)
        • Yeah, that was pretty clunky, I stripped it down. DjMack 19:38, January 15, 2012 (UTC)
  • Defection: Link for the Raltiir mission, the capital city, the Bakura mission and the Geonosis ambush? BTW there is massive underlinking in that part.
    • Linked DjMack 01:24, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
      • The City is still missing. Is it named in the game or not? If it is named, link it and if not you can link it to city.
        • Duly noted DjMack 19:38, January 15, 2012 (UTC)
  • Endor: Underlinking.
    • Please find somemore links, like the shield bunker, forest, unit etc. Clone Commander Lee Talk 18:40, January 31, 2012 (UTC)
      • Did so. DjMack 04:36, February 17, 2012 (UTC)
  • P&T: You can say something that he had no problem with killing his former allies, like Antilles and Solo.
    • Added DjMack 01:10, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
  • P&T: Mention that he had a blaster but was not able to kill Solo.
  • BtS: Some context on RotJ and TFU II.
    • Elaborated DjMack 01:10, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
  • More to come eventually. Clone Commander Lee Talk 10:26, January 5, 2012 (UTC)
  • Please take care of the update tag. Once you delt with this and the remaining objections, I'll give it another look. Good work. Clone Commander Lee Talk 09:17, January 14, 2012 (UTC)
  • A mention like, while fighting on Endor, he used a blaster would be nice in the P&T. Clone Commander Lee Talk 18:40, January 31, 2012 (UTC)
Objection! Sustained!
Get over here!
  • Preliminary objection: Do we know if Sarkli was transferred to the Death Star? I don't think his being present during Vader's visit necessarily meant he was, as opposed to just being there on that one-time occasion. And do you know anything about my comments below? Probably more to come. Hanzo Hasashi 17:54, January 14, 2012 (UTC)
    • It appears this objection has been satisfied. Hanzo Hasashi 04:24, February 14, 2012 (UTC)
  • Another prelim: As we can see here, Sarkli was intended to appear in two more scenes that were cut from the film. This is worth talking about in the Behind the Scenes. Hanzo Hasashi 04:22, January 17, 2012 (UTC)
    • I'm going to be nice and take care of this for you, to keep the FAN going. Hanzo Hasashi 04:24, February 14, 2012 (UTC)
      • Thank you, sorry about that. DjMack 04:38, February 17, 2012 (UTC)

Comments

  • So he's pictured in the Complete Visual Dictionary. Is that by chance the image of Imperial Officers and Vader awaiting Palpatine's arrival, the same image Davod Jon is also in? If so, then it needs to be canonically established that Sarkli also awaited Palpatine's arrival in the biography. Hanzo Hasashi 18:03, January 5, 2012 (UTC)
    • Yes he does appear in some of those images, that's relevant in-universe info. Hanzo Hasashi 05:42, February 15, 2012 (UTC)
      • Actually nevermind I cannot confirm, I was told that through a mistake in communication on IRC. So please check for yourself, or ask other users if you don't have the material in question. Hanzo Hasashi 03:40, February 17, 2012 (UTC)
  • Another question: though I see some adaptations and other sources listed for him, would be be in the PhotoComic, and have you checked all other sources and adaptations for him (he's near Chiraneau and Godherdt, so there's a good chance he's also in the adaptations and sources they are pictured in). Hanzo Hasashi 04:41, January 6, 2012 (UTC)

Vote to remove nomination (Inq only)

  1. Inqvote Outstanding objections are nearly a month old. I dropped him a talk-page reminder at the three-week mark, but nine days later and nuthin'. I hate to see a FAN removed, but rules is rules. Menkooroo 03:18, February 14, 2012 (UTC)
    • I just did the work for my second objection myself, to get rid of part of the objections. He will still have to make sure to respond to Lee's though. Hanzo Hasashi 04:33, February 14, 2012 (UTC)
      • Thanks for doing that. But yeah, the update tag objection is a month old too... Menkooroo 04:41, February 14, 2012 (UTC)
  2. Inqvote Seconded. IFYLOFD (Floyd's crib) 01:29, February 15, 2012 (UTC)
    • I've gotten around to everything except for the update tag, which I don't have the source material for. I've asked the user who insists on keeping that there to help me and he never got back to me. DjMack 04:38, February 17, 2012 (UTC)
      • FWIW, the person who placed the update tag on there is not responsible for updating it. You are, since you are the one who nominated the article. If that person does not get back with you, then I suggest you try to find someone who is willing to help, since that person who placed the update tag is not required to assist you.—Cal JediInfinite Empire (Personal Comm Channel) 14:52, February 17, 2012 (UTC)
        • You can ask around on Forum:Knowledge Bank. That's a good way to find who else has the source, and they might actually help you out. Hanzo Hasashi 22:42, February 21, 2012 (UTC)
  3. Inqvote CC7567 (talk) 01:22, February 19, 2012 (UTC)
  4. Inqvote Be gon' wit' heem! Toprawa and Ralltiir 23:39, February 23, 2012 (UTC)
  5. Inqvote Grand Moff Tranner Imperial Department of Military Research (Comlink) 21:41, February 26, 2012 (UTC)
