Object

  1. A couple of things. Shouldn't Force Commander be after the RS games in the Appearance lists, as its mission involving the Tyderium occurs at the same time as the movie. What is the appearance in Galactic Battlegrounds? "Madine suspected that the shuttle's clearance codes would not have been updated, and would still be usable at Endor." Updated from what? --Eyrezer 23:08, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
  2. [Moved to make it clear] Can you add a note re the ore Tyderium? (It is known that a number of other Lambda shuttles are named after ores).
    • I'll go through respectively: I thought that we voted to list sources by when they start chrnologically, not when the topic appears in them; where would I mention such a thing? BTS?; It appears landed during the Endor mission. Nothing new there; Fixed. Thefourdotelipsis 00:48, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
      • I guess that makes sense re the ordering - ie, if it was a novel, that is how we would order it. As to the naming convention, I was actually thinking it could go in the Description section if worded correctly. Bts could also work though. As for a source for the connection see the posts here by Dan Wallace and Abel Pena. --Eyrezer 09:15, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
        • Fixed myself! --Eyrezer 08:06, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
  3. Farl on board
    • The last paragraph of "After Endor" combines two unrelated events: Han Solo using the Tydirium to hijack a destroyer in 4 ABY; and Starter saying unconnected things three years later. I suggest: Starter event in his own paragraph.
      • Eh... I'd rather have them smushed together than have a single-sentence paragraph.
        • You've considered it; that's enough for me.
    • I also suggest: Expand the Starter event. Precisely due to what is said in BtS, the paragraph should include something like "; however, Starter's friends (or partners or whomever they were) did not believe him" or "Starter's credibility was scarce when he said that." Something to suggest that the reader should not take Starter's claims seriously.
      • Boosted it a little bit.
    • I am not an expert, but I understand there is some fan film called Tydirium, available at theforce.net and supposedly dealing with the theft of the shuttle. Is a fan film notable enough to be added to an (already crowded) BtS?
      • I don't think that we mention fan films in BTS's
    • That all. -Skippy Farlstendoiro 15:43, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
  4. From the Moffship of Grand Moff Tranner:
    • The Battlefield Holographic Control Interface should probably be mentioned in the infobox and the Description.
      • It's not actually a part of the ship, just something they placed in the and operated from there.
    • Regarding the Mission on Prefsbelt IV, I've managed to play through that level without having to steal a TIE Fighter, and in the end, Y-wings escorted the shuttle. Because there are two versions of the heist, I think it would be better if you make the details of the event a little more vague.
      • Vagueified.
    • Well done. Grand Moff Tranner Imperial Department of Military Research (Comlink) 12:27, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
