  • review note: Woohoo! soon both desi characters in Kenobi will be FA's :P
  • any chance you could grab a better infobox image? this one's rather dark
    • Been hearing from others that Kenobi had lighting issues on the all-around, and the scenes in which she's in her Path outfit are all dark. Had a peer around but think this one still suits her best.—spookywillowwtalk 01:58, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
  • from what I've seen on Kenobi SA's we treat him as a "former" Jedi master
    • It does vary a bit (one comes to mind in Groff Ditcher); as the majority of his time with Durith is relating to him being a Jedi/his Jedi roots, seems more relevant if he's not formerly.—spookywillowwtalk 01:58, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
  • worth noting that she got the coordinates to pickup Kenobi/Leia from Haja in the intro?
  • Dillusion with the Empire: I think it'd be better to have a date note (either "at some point between 19 and 9 BBY" or "By 9 BBY") for the Garel incident, as opposed to "one day"
  • the first image in the body doesn't really match with the section, would you mind moving it down + adding a new one? this is a possible replacement option
    • The SWCT image is already used in Equipment.—spookywillowwtalk 01:58, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
  • the officer informed him that many Jedi had been through Path safehouses, including[2] one of his former mission partners,[12] Vos - two things: A. This somewhat reads off as that Vos had been helped by the path, I think it's worth nothing that he himself helped the Path as well. B. possible better context for Vos other than "former mission partners"?
    • Vos is also already contextualized higher up with his position as a Jedi.—spookywillowwtalk 01:58, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
  • you don't mention that Leia had been kidnapped by Reva in Rescue from Vader, I think the context for why Leia wasn't with them comes kinda late
  • intro says that she knocked out the terminal officer, body says she killed him; unsure which is true
  • super minor nitpick: I'd mention somewhere that the fortress was underground, so as to provide a tiny bit of context about where the water came from with the window thingy
  • missing link + context for L0-LA, in Attack of Jabiimas well as context for lola's sabotage (unless I missed it somewhere earlier; apologies in advance if that's the case)
  • would Tala's holster be notable for its own page? Not entirely sure
  • review note 2.0: noticed some missing links, grabbed a few in a copy edit take another pass to see if there's any more. Nice work from the both of you!
  • note to self: continue reviewing from the BTS BloodOfIrizi Seventh Fleet (Syndicure) 19:03, 7 May 2023 (UTC)
    • Objection(s) overridden by Inquisitorius 17:18, 26 May 2023 (UTC)

  • Should mention that she's Human in the biography. SkiffGuardCaptain (talk) 01:09, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
    • It's mentioned in the P+T section; precedent allows for nominators to pick for it to be in one or the other.—spookywillowwtalk 01:11, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

  • (Reviewing note) I've removed the pipelink to Laser for "blaster shots" per Star Wars Super Graphic, which states that "contrary to popular belief, those aren't lasers that shoot out of blasters" and they actually are "energy bolts."
  • (Reviewing note) I have removed the "quote" fields of some web citations since they were used for the article subtitles and not for relevant quotes per the instructions on {{WebCite}}.
  • "…fourteen individuals from four families—including six Force-sensitive children" I think the wording here suggests only the children were Force-sensitive, though the quote above says all of them were.
  • The Fortress Inquisitorius being an underwater base is partially intro-exclusive. In the body, it's only hinted by the flood caused by a cracked window in the base, though it'd be nice to clarify that.
  • Are we sure that NED-B was an Imperial droid?
  • Please revise the repetition of "code cylinders" in Equipment.
    • Seems like someone else slipped in the parenthesis without our knowledge. Taken out.—spookywillowwtalk 03:10, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
  • Is the use of {{ImperialRanks-PreDS-LA}} necessary if Tala's rank can be sourced to Part IV as pointed out in BTS?
  • Could you please expand on Tala's interactions with Leia a little bit? Leia asking her to teach shooting, Tala believing that Leia will be a "good fighter," or if it is scary to live a double-life (which might also be relevant for P&T?)
  • Partially related to the objection above, do you think Leia indeed becoming a fighter and having to "pretend" like Tala later is worth documenting as her legacy, without going into detail? Part of me thinks it'd be superfluous, but also I feel like Tala's influence on Leia has been hinted at multiple times in the series.
    • Unsure about this one—did consider when writing, but the hinting wasn't really confirmed in the BtS documentary so much in the end. Given the other number of experiences in Leia's earlier years that could've happened (or even some stuff from LPOA and her looking up to Mothma, and in several other sources wanting to fight for either injustice or to help her parents) could've been any number of reasons that she was inspired to truly join the fight.—spookywillowwtalk 03:15, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
      • Yeah, that's fair enough. As I said above, I was also unsure about that, but just wanted to hear what you think about it. Thanks! TanDivoInsignia-SenateMurders Anıl Şerifoğlu (talk) 16:33, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
  • Several physical trading cards and about twenty digital cards from Card Trader are missing from the Sources list. (Please let me know if you require screenshots from the app)
    • May need help with this. Under the impression that neither of us have the app and/or ability to navigate it efficiently.—spookywillowwtalk 03:10, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
  • One of those digital cards is from the "Women of Star Wars - 2023" set, which might be a better source for Tala's gender than the ELLE.com article. TanDivoInsignia-SenateMurders Anıl Şerifoğlu (talk) 19:43, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
