Oppose

  1. Toprawa:
    • "Potentially" deadly? I think it would be best to just say "deadly.": "making the ship both fast and potentially deadly"
    • I think it would be best to indicate specifically what speeds the X-wing and TIE travels at, to give a greater idea of the ship's approximate speed in the absence of a solid number: "Together, these engines combined to produce a sublight speed greater than that of the T-65 X-wing starfighter and only slightly below that of the TIE/ln starfighter"
      • Not an objection, but in addition to this, I would recommend piping the TIE/In starfighter link to be TIE Interceptor, the more common name. - JMAS Hey, it's me! 01:14, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
    • Saying the cargo space took up an excessive amount of space reads a bit redundantly. Please reword: "the crew quarters and cargo space took up an excessive amount of space aboard ship."
    • You begin the previous sentence the same way as this one. Please reword to mix it up a little bit: "Though the Stinger sank into the swamp"
    • Very nicely written. Toprawa and Ralltiir 01:07, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

  • I'm not sure how "canon" this news article is, but I think there is a unique piece of info in it about the "outlaw techs" doing the modifying, rather than Guri herself. --Eyrezer 07:16, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
    • IRC consensus said canon, so I've added it. Thanks for the pointer. Green Tentacle (Talk) 18:06, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Just a request, since it's a matter of opinion: could the first and second images be moved down? It's just that, on my resolution (layman's) the image is next to the infobox, and squishes the text. Thefourdotelipsis 02:34, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
