Fred strikes back

• There's an unreferenced item in the infobox.
  • How careless of me.
• Be careful of linking. See the article's history for my changes in the infobox and intro. Remember that you need to link the first mention of a topic and that it should only be linked once in the intro, once in the infobox, once in the body, and then in reference notes.
  • Thanks for doing that, I've adjusted some other linking issues too
• More to come once I have some more time. Glad to have you back! MasterFred^(Whatever) 21:47, May 4, 2018 (UTC)
  • Happy to be here. Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 01:11, May 5, 2018 (UTC)
• As there is more than one image related to the topic, {{Imagecat}} should be used. MasterFred^(Whatever) 22:58, May 13, 2018 (UTC)
  • Since the second image is portraying the rescue, a separate event with its own article I don't think categorizing it as an image of the ambush would be accurate. Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 01:01, May 14, 2018 (UTC)
    • I suppose that's fair. This all gets very confusing and convoluted because time is treated very weirdly in GB and it makes separating events iffy. I'll let this slide as {{Imagecat}} would be best used in Alaris Prime colonial war. MasterFred^(Whatever) 21:16, May 14, 2018 (UTC)
• There are back-to-back identical references in the Bts. MasterFred^(Whatever) 04:22, July 31, 2018 (UTC)
  • Oops. Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 04:56, July 31, 2018 (UTC)

Ayrehead

• The prelude section could probably use one of the images from the attack on the Gundark nest article. Ayrehead02 (talk) 09:11, July 28, 2018 (UTC)
  • Uploaded a new one
    • Images should generally go alternate left then right due to the infobox. Ayrehead02 (talk) 10:11, July 29, 2018 (UTC)
      • Alright. Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 14:05, July 29, 2018 (UTC)
• Quite a few of your paragraphs are pretty big, they could use splitting. Ayrehead02 (talk) 09:11, July 28, 2018 (UTC)
  • How's that? Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 07:12, July 29, 2018 (UTC)

Imp

• Can we get a category for the battles of the Alaris Prime colonial war? Imperators II^(Talk) 10:23, July 31, 2018 (UTC)
  • I thought I had created one years ago. Done. Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 11:02, July 31, 2018 (UTC)

Toprawa

• Per the Manual of Style, ranks and titles should not be capitalized in this manner unless the term is always capitalized, like "Moff." Is "Chieftain" indeed one of these? "The Chieftain refused to comply..."
  • That's a mistake from when I first wrote up the article. Corrected
• I'm assuming the droids, as is standard with the B1 model, were using blaster rifles (?), which should be linked here more specifically. Taking that a step further, can we not identify their weapons as the standard E-5 blaster rifle? "...prompting the battle droids to fire upon Attichitcuk with blasters."
  • Done.
    • That isn't actually what I wanted you to do. I want you to be able to visually identify their blasters in the game as E-5s and just source it to GB. Can we not do that? Obviously we're dealing with some extremely limited graphics, but they kind of look like E-5s here, right? You can sort of see where the "handle" portion sticks out below the barrel. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 15:05, August 2, 2018 (UTC)
      • Oh okay. I've checked the profile image for the B1 battle droids and I think we can positively identify the weapons as E-5s. I'm under the impression that it doesn't need further explanation in a reference then. Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 00:24, August 3, 2018 (UTC)
        • Correct. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 01:01, August 3, 2018 (UTC)
• Writing tip: You use the "before" (conjunction) sentence construct a little too frequently. It becomes repetitive. Try to mix it up a little in the future. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 17:11, August 1, 2018 (UTC)
  • Thanks for the feedback, will keep that in mind. Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 02:04, August 2, 2018 (UTC)
    • Had a mental lapse and didn't actually change any of these, done now. Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 00:30, August 3, 2018 (UTC)
      • Not a mental lapse. This wasn't intended to be an objection. I fixed some of them in my original copy-edit and left what I felt was a reasonable number of cases, all of which you've now removed. I think you should actually go back and replace the ones you removed in your most recent edit. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 01:01, August 3, 2018 (UTC)
        • Done. Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 01:06, August 3, 2018 (UTC)
