Oppose

1. Before I get started... It's not exactly kosher to show pictures of the player character from KotOR and refer to them as "Revan" in the articles. Please remedy this. Graestan^{(This party's over)} 15:19, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
   • My bad. Substituted "the player" for "Revan" in all instances.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 22:24, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
     • Eh, that makes it OOU in an IU article. Supplying "Jedi Knight" or something would be fine with me, but I think you should ask around for opinions. Graestan^(Talk) 23:56, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
       • Yeah, calling him "the player" just makes it worse. File:CrewEbHwkTortured.jpg is fine because the forcefield obscures his face and we know from the action figure that he was canonically a caucasian, or whatever those are called in the GFFA, and File:Revanmemory.jpg is good because it doesn't show his face. File:RevanMalakDuelLeviathan.jpg, File:DashToHawk.jpg, and File:PostEscape_Meet.jpg will need to be dealt with. We don't know Revan's canonical head and neither Revan nor Carth have a canonical style of clothing or headgear. -- Darth Culator ^(Talk) 01:55, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
         • Better, but please get the Christmas lights off of Bastila's head. -- Darth Culator ^(Talk) 03:45, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
           • That's much better. But now that the obvious problem is fixed, I have to read the darn thing. :-P -- Darth Culator ^(Talk) 06:11, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
2. All those pictures in the BTS are unnecessary, and clog it up. Please remove them. Chack Jadson ^(Talk) 20:36, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
   • Not really. Look at Great Sith War and Conclave on Exis Station for examples.--Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 02:42, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
     • I think they help to convey the unique nature that this article's BtS aims for, IMO at least :) Greyman^(Paratus) 02:46, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
       • You're right. It's better with the pictures. Chack Jadson ^(Talk) 20:06, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
3. Some objections:
   • "Occurring not long before the end of that conflict, it saw the crew of the Ebon Hawk, led by the amnesiac former Dark Lord of the Sith Revan, captured by the Sith Empire's flagship." Rephrase.
     • Fixed.
   • Also, later in the intro, please clarify Revan's true nature. Perhaps move "the amnesiac former Dark Lord of the Sith" down to the second paragraph.
     • Done.
   • In the "Aftermath" section, the quote is formatted wrong.
     • A result of anon (in)discretion. Fixed.
   • Also, T3's prisonbreak scenario could use a little more explanation. Chack Jadson ^(Talk) 12:54, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
     • Expanded the best I could.-Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 17:27, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
4. File:Starmap2.jpg is rather poorly compressed—get Redemption to redo it or something. File:Revanmemory.jpg suffers from the same. --Imperialles 22:22, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Torture fields look like bacta tanks...heh. Chack Jadson ^(Talk) 12:54, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
    • They're actually force cages. I created that article myself... ;-) Goodwood ^{(Alliance Intelligence)} 17:28, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
