Object

ThrawnChiss

• The BTS needs to mention that Umbra was first indirectly mentioned in the FFG article. ThrawnChiss7 ^{Assembly Cupola} 18:25, 15 October 2024 (UTC)
  • Added! Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 21:08, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

Lew

• (Review note) Welcome to the FAN, glad to see you on here! Lewisr (talk) 23:01, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
  • Thanks! :D Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 15:59, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
• Be careful of casing, stormtrooper should be lowercase for example in this instance Lewisr (talk) 23:01, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
  • I think I corrected all the instances. Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 15:59, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
    • Yeah you did thanks! Lewisr (talk) 20:35, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
• I think we should include a date for the end of the Clone Wars Lewisr (talk) 23:01, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
  • Date included! Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 15:59, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
• The date note concerning Greedo should be tweaked just a little since the Atlas doesn't directly date his death, more just the parts of the film that feature his death Lewisr (talk) 23:01, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
  • Fixed. Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 15:59, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
• At first mentions of the Empire I think we should use the full name instead of pipelinking Lewisr (talk) 23:01, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
  • Done! Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 15:59, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
• Are the squad/convoy/group in anyway notable to make a page? Lewisr (talk) 23:01, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
  • Made a page for the rebel squad. Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 18:00, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
• Can you maybe rearrange the sentence where you introduce Senza so the slave use is changed to enslaved or similar. Something like 'While in the dungeon, Senza, a woman enslaved by Jabba,' might work Lewisr (talk) 23:01, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
  • Rearranged. Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 15:59, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
    • Thanks for doing that Lewisr (talk) 20:35, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
• The BTS should note the app was his first identification and include the template in the apps section as well Lewisr (talk) 23:01, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
  • Added! Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 15:59, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
• Just to confirm, there's no quotes that can be added in the "Crashing on Tatooine" or the sections in the BTS? Lewisr (talk) 04:19, 15 March 2025 (UTC)
  • Was able to find some relevant quotes. Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 15:25, 15 March 2025 (UTC)
• Been musing on this, but I think the image for "The Clone Wars" section should perhaps be changed to an image of just Felucia or maybe Plo Koon/Wolffe, because it's possible that it could be interpreted that Umbra was on Felucia during that particular battle, when that isn't necessarily confirmed to be the case. What do you think? Lewisr (talk) 04:19, 15 March 2025 (UTC)
  • Changed the image! Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 15:25, 15 March 2025 (UTC)

Vitus

• Clone Wars should be dated in the intro and first paragraph. At least with a start date.
  • Dated! Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 22:41, 14 February 2025 (UTC)
• Clone Wars should also be given further context, like including the Confederacy of Independent Systems.
  • Separatists added. Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 22:41, 14 February 2025 (UTC)
• Same thing for Galactic Civil War, would be good to further contextualize it as a conflict between the Empire and Rebel Alliance.
  • Done! Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 22:41, 14 February 2025 (UTC)
• Context for Jabba Desilijic Tiure, such as Jabba being a Hutt crime lord. --Vitus Infinitus^Talk 03:05, 13 February 2025 (UTC)
  • Context added. Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 22:41, 14 February 2025 (UTC)

Comet

• The only other page named Umbra is just a redirect, so this page would take priority over that and can be moved to just Umbra without the parenthetical
  • It's been moved! Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 14:59, 9 March 2025 (UTC)
• The Rescue section probably has room for an image and could be split up to avoid a one paragraph section
  • Image added and split in two. Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 19:59, 8 March 2025 (UTC)
• The Enslavement section is also pretty big and could be split into multiple paragraphs
  • Done! Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 19:59, 8 March 2025 (UTC)
• Bib Fortuna needs context in the BTS CometSmudge (talk) 17:54, 8 March 2025 (UTC)
  • Added context! Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 19:59, 8 March 2025 (UTC)
• The intro mentions that they left Tatooine on a transport, but the body doesn't mention the transport
  • Fixed! Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 06:11, 10 March 2025 (UTC)
• Would the Imperial listening post and hidden rebel world be notable for their own pages?
  • Made a page for the listening post, I don't think there's enough information for the hidden rebel world to consider it notable. Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 06:11, 10 March 2025 (UTC)
• In Rebel help, I think it would be good to include some brief context for how/why the code cylinders are obtained
  • Context added. Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 06:11, 10 March 2025 (UTC)
• Are there any sources that provide the exact release date of the campaign? If so, that should be included in the BTS since it has multiple 2018 dates noted. CometSmudge (talk) 02:49, 10 March 2025 (UTC)
  • Exact date added. Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 06:11, 10 March 2025 (UTC)

Imp

• I'd appreciate it if you could give a pass at trying to vary the usage of "has a chance of ..." in the BTS. Imperators II^(Talk) 17:29, 20 March 2025 (UTC)
  • Reworded it. Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 01:55, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

Fred strikes back

• Can you vary the usage of "to which he" in "Imprisoned"? You use that phrase four times, including three that are back-to-back. Master Fredcerique(talk) (he/him) 04:00, 26 March 2025 (UTC)
  • Done! Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 00:35, 27 March 2025 (UTC)

SOoiUSOuSUS111

• Some context about the Empire being the Republic's successor state would be nice. SorcererSupreme21 (talk) 01:24, 28 March 2025 (UTC)
  • Added. Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 03:58, 28 March 2025 (UTC)
• It might also be worth noting that Felucia and/or Tatooine are in the Outer Rim Territories. SorcererSupreme21 (talk) 01:24, 28 March 2025 (UTC)
  • Noted. Outer Shell Electrons (talk) 03:58, 28 March 2025 (UTC)
