Wicked update. Yes, I used "wicked" to describe something. Cull Tremayne 03:46, 4 February 2009 (UTC)- No complaints. Atarumaster88 (Talk page) 16:28, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
- Good to have Fourdot Fourdotting again (that means writing FAs at an insane rate, btw). Chack Jadson (Talk) 01:32, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
Oppose
- Farlstendoiro speaking. Does anybody copy?
Dren Melne is repeatedly called "Melene".More context in the following:taken to Camp Four for "processing." What does "processing" mean exactly? If source does not specify, what about taken to Camp Four for something the Federation called, euphemistically, "processing"- Removed processing altogether. Besides, I didn't like the "Four for". :P
claiming that the death toll from the occupation was reaching "catastrophic" levels The death toll of whom? Naboo people? Soldiers? Civilians? Federation people? Both? Others? Who is dying? Why?- We don't even know if that's true. It could have been a fabrication at Gunray's behest, it could be in earnest...I figure the way to play it safe is to use the exact wording, and stay vague.>
helping Amidala present Nass with the Globe of Peace. What's the Globe of Peace and why are they presenting it to Nass? What about: helping Amidala present Nass with the Globe of Peace as a gesture of good faith and continued relations between the Naboo and the Gungans (if that's what they did)- Again, I really don't know. I figure if people want to know about that, they'll click on the link. Plus, I think people will figure out enough from the name of the object. Thefourdotelipsis 11:34, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
- I don't usually vote FA because user votes don't hold any real value; but Sio's going to get my vote soon.--Skippy Farlstendoiro 09:51, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review, Farl. Thefourdotelipsis 10:57, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
- Chack Attack:
"Bibble was disappointed with the lack of result, and did not look forward to informing Amidala about the lack of developments." Guess. Hint: you use a certain "l" word too much.- ...look? :P
"considered himself a philosopher." Could "and a pacifist" be added in there too to make it a bit more, well, sensible?- It could be.
"of their eliminated communications capacity." I suggest changing this to read something like "of the comm jamming" or whatever.- Fixed.
- Otherwise, sweet. Oh, and "balk", not "baulk". :P Chack Jadson (Talk) 00:06, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
- I sorry. Thefourdotelipsis 02:20, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
- You get a pass because you're Fourdot, he of the 100+ FAs. Chack Jadson (Talk) 01:32, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
- I sorry. Thefourdotelipsis 02:20, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
