Objections
spookly
Seems like a significant portion of the article variates between present tense (mostly) with the occasional past tense slipped in. However, the article should be shifted to be fully past tense.- per the objection about trimming I rewrote some of the bio, I also corrected a couple cases where I noticed something, but I can't find anything else now, so hopefully it's all good.

- Will list off the remaining to be fixed: "the Order has a history of transparency"; "the external review is not"; "explain that he views the" —spookywillowwtalk 15:22, 1 September 2025 (UTC)

'Senator' is capped several times when not immediately preceding a name, which should be de-capped per Wookieepedia:Manual_of_Style#Ranks_and_titles. Even for the Abednedo one, given its being used in conjunction with other context, we generally wouldn't there either.- fixed Sanathestarr (talk) 14:42, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
Seems like at least one "isn't" is present; Wookieepedia generally doesn't use contractions, with the exceptions of quotes and direct excerpts of course, so a sweep should be done to ensure that's not the only one.- corrected and checked all other apostrophes in the article, none of them are contractions in the article itself Sanathestarr (talk) 14:42, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
Seems like there's a handful of linking issues; it would be ideal to move links such as human to their first mention in prose (in this case the Biography) rather than having them down in PT, which is lower down. There might be other cases of this, worth a sweep.- Fixed the human one and checked for others, don't think there's any left. Sanathestarr (talk) 17:12, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
Offhandedly, the hair, eye, and skin color are referenced to ref 1, but are referenced to ref 3 in prose, which should be made consistent. Human has a similar issue (1 in infobox, 4 in prose) and both Galactic Republic and Galactic Senate (2 in infobox, 4 in prose).- standardized the references for those Sanathestarr (talk) 15:58, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
It does seem like the prose of the Biography is a bit too exact-transcription-of-dialogue rather than summarizing to prosify. A bit of trimming in that regard would likely help the flow a lot.—spookywillowwtalk 23:23, 19 August 2025 (UTC)- cut it down somewhat, does this work? Sanathestarr (talk) 15:58, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
