  2. Couldn't you stop writing these noms that make me hungry? --Skippy Farlstendoiro 07:12, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
  3. Inqvote Very nice. Hope you don't mind that adjusted the linking in your references. Chack Jadson (Talk) 16:44, May 30, 2010 (UTC)
    • No, I don't mind at all, since I sometimes have trouble with those. Thanks for both the review and for clearing those refs up.—Tommy 9281 23:26, June 3, 2010 (UTC)

Jedi Kasra

Just one that I see; In the section "Freedom," it states that Secura is a Padawan, yet the intro say she's a Knight. Which is it?--Jedi Kasra (comlink) 21:19, May 16, 2010 (UTC)

  • Addressed. Thanks for the review, Kasra. Please advise if anything further is required.—Tommy 9281 22:25, May 16, 2010 (UTC)
Lord Hydronium

Karkko's inspiration of Nikkos Tyris, from Evil Never Dies, is worth a mention. That second bit on Karkko in END actually doesn't seem to be in the article; there's some stuff about Karkko's teachings too. - Lord Hydronium 07:57, May 17, 2010 (UTC)

  • **Gasp** Shame on me for leaving that out, it has since been addressed.—Tommy 9281 16:11, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
    • Something about this bit too (from END): "Karkko's apocryphal teachings in which he found frequent reference to and snippets from Sith tomes". Could probably fit somewhere in the P&T. - Lord Hydronium 18:46, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
      • Addressed. Thanks for the review, Hydro. Please advise if anything further is required.—Tommy 9281 19:48, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
        • Hm, I think that's a misreading of "apocryphal". Karkko's teachings are the ones that are apocryphal, so it's not in the sense of "inauthentic", since we're told they're his teachings, but "esoteric" or "outside the canon". "Unorthodox" might be a better word. - Lord Hydronium 19:52, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
Skippy Farlstendoiro has always likened this guy to Fu Manchu
  • Following Order 66, Commander Bly was also briefed on Karkko's exploits (as Bly writes a report about Secura having been controlled by him). This could be added to the "Legacy" part.
    • I considered this and ended up thinking that is really relevant to Karkko. Moreso to Secura, but not Karkko.
  • P&A: In the quote, could you add who is Karkko talking to?
    • Addressed.

  • While I appreciate humor, the pipelink gives a problem: The {{FANom}} template on Karkko's page does not redirect to this section, only to the top of this (very long) page. --Skippy Farlstendoiro 15:56, May 13, 2010 (UTC)
    • You are absolutely correct. What a bummer. Ah well, it was fun while it lasted.—Tommy 9281 18:18, May 13, 2010 (UTC)
      • There is a way to pipelink the header and still get {{FAnom}} to work. Simply add {{Anchor|actual article title}} next to the header on the same line. Also, if my subpage proposal passes, then once we convert everything to the new system, you'll be free to pipelink the header all you want as the new {{FAnom}} will link to the subpage instead of a section on the main page. —Master Jonathan(Jedi Council Chambers) 20:29, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
        • …Accept that that didn't work. Thanks anyway.—Tommy 9281 22:31, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
          • I only knew that because I also tried to make that joke. ·:( --Skippy Farlstendoiro 08:19, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
