  • There's status article precedent on Naga Sadow to not cover in a Canon article's BTS the differences between the Canon subject and its Legends counterpart (for further in-depth info on the Legends subject, that's why the continuity tabs are there), so I think you should be safe to remove the bit about the Legends TK-421.
  • It reads to me as if Tarkin appreciating TK-421's appearance is P&T-worthy.
  • More bits of context needed: Vader, Death Star (remember that there's both the Death Star and battle station articles to pipelink).
  • Further, I think it would be beneficial to (more) explicitly note two additional things: that Yavin 4 was the main base of the Alliance and that Tarkin was the commander of the Death Star (way up there, when Tarkin is first mentioned).
  • I forget my ANH, didn't the Falcon's crew and passengers infiltrate the station in order to free the ship, and only later learn about Organa's presence there?
  • To confirm: is the "grunt" in "military grunt" there referring to the type of sound made by grunting or the slang word for infantry soldiers?
  • If "jumpsuit" in the bio is accurate, it should be linked to and noted in the P&T.
  • If that's the only mention of fiberweave in Canon so far, I think it would actually be better to be located at Coruscant fiberweave.
  • Are the Alpha One security level, Beta level, and 300 level all things that should get articles of their own? Regarding the first two, I'm seeing a Class-three intel/courier clearance article in :Category:Imperial Codes, for example.
  • No quotes for "Catching an officer's eye"?
  • Per our convo, I think it's safe to cut the Zahn sentence as it's not that relevant to TK-421.
  • Regarding the use of the Trevas image in the body - I'm afraid we can't have it both ways, either you show the image in the BTS, or you accept it as canonical and therefore describe in the body what it depicts.
  • Regarding the French thing, I think you should make it clear what product you are talking about specifically, so that it can't be taken to refer to ANH's subtitles or something. Imperators II(Talk) 15:03, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
  • For all the 2015 and 2017 products mentioned in the BTS, please get the full publication dates. Imperators II(Talk) 07:30, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

  • I think the topic alters enough to between the second and third paragraphs of the first BtS section to warrant a splitting into two separate sections entirely. 2 and 3 paragraph sections over a 5 para one looks better to me in this case.

  • You should add a few sentances to the behind the scenes section, somthing like "This article assumes [source(s)] is/are correct" (example: Darth Bane) for every thing that there is a continuity error-ThrawnChiss7 (talk) 19:24, 3 December 2022 (UTC)
    • Let me know if the revision does/doesn't work! Immi Thrax RainbowRebellion2 (she/her) 13:38, 6 December 2022 (UTC)
