Object

  1. Some consistency issues between this nom and 17,000 BBY. First off, you bold an extra (BBY) in the latter without doing it in the former, and also, in the notable events section, you use periods at the end of each point in one but not the other.

    • Done. — Fiolli {Alpheridies University ComNet} 13:17, April 8, 2010 (UTC)
  2. From the Council Chambers:
    • I believe the Atlas is written as an IU document, which, if so, means that its prose can be quoted per WP:MOS#Quotations, which specifies that "in-universe written works, such as catalogs, news reports, historical chronicles, government documents, personnel dossiers, and the like" can be quoted.
      • I was under the impression that this was not quotable because it was not an IU section of the source based on other conversations with INQs in the past. I checked with Toprawa and Chack, just to be safe, and their consensus was that the section this comes from is not quotable as it is not from IU prose. In other words, it is not from a quote, recorded conversation, news reports, or the like. The one scant mention of the year is a passing context clause in the OOU portion.
        • OK, that's fine. —Master Jonathan(Jedi Council Chambers) 03:44, April 11, 2010 (UTC)
    • Otherwise, great job. —Master Jonathan(Jedi Council Chambers) 17:41, April 10, 2010 (UTC)
      • Thank you, sir. — Fiolli {Alpheridies University ComNet} 01:47, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

Comments

  • No images or quotes are extant since it only comes from the Atlas. — Fiolli {Alpheridies University ComNet} 00:53, April 7, 2010 (UTC)
  • Just a comment: in the sentence in the intro - In the years following the first Alsakan Conflict, the Republic's expansion came to a near halt. - it's confusing as to where the year 16,782 fits in there to the average reader. Is it possible to clarify that this year was after the conflict or something of that sort? A Christian 18:21, April 11, 2010 (UTC)
