  • Chronologically, shouldn't the info from the Syrox Redemption come before the Dex Diner's stuff? Syrox links into Lockdown, which is set in 33 BBY apparently, while Dex's Diner stuff is around 22 BBY. - Sir Cavalier of OneFarStar(Squadron channel) 09:18, December 17, 2013 (UTC)
    • Ah fair enough I wasn't really sure when Syrox is set it just says many years ago. Changed. Ayrehead02 (talk) 11:41, December 17, 2013 (UTC)

  • Soooo the History section picks up where the intro left off, in terms of linking, context, description, etc. A CAN spillover, no doubt? Menkooroo (talk) 00:55, December 23, 2013 (UTC)
    • I think it's now fixed. Ayrehead02 (talk) 19:42, December 23, 2013 (UTC)
  • I think the intro would be better if you mentioned the Dex's Diner stuff before the Syrox stuff. Currently, the intro goes from cooking, to parasites, and then back to cooking --- keeping the cooking stuff together would be tidier. Since the intro just describes things generally and not chronologically, there should be no worry there.
  • Should Syrox be capitalized? Non-sentient creatures like rancor and bantha are typically lowercase, per the manual of style. Although it does say "unless otherwise dictated by canon," so I guess it depends on what the short story says.
  • If Syrox ties into Lockdown, is there any way you can approximately date that part of the "History" section?
    • It's set in the same location but apart from that the connections aren't clear. At the end of the story Zero says "but that all happened along time ago", however we don't know if Zero shows up in Lockdown or not. To be honest it isn't impossible the whole thing takes place after Dex's is destroyed although that seems less likely so the order as it is still makes more sense. Ayrehead02 (talk) 13:32, December 24, 2013 (UTC)
  • I don't think we can say it was served "until" the destruction of Dex's Diner; "before" the destruction would be more accurate.
  • Category:Species of undefined sentience is used, but the article asserts that it's definitely non-sentient. Menkooroo (talk) 02:05, December 24, 2013 (UTC)
    • Oops forgot to remove that. Ayrehead02 (talk) 13:32, December 24, 2013 (UTC)
      • There oughtta be some sentience-related category though, no? Menkooroo (talk) 00:54, December 26, 2013 (UTC)
        • I didn't think we had a non-sentient species category but I stand corrected. Apparently no one else does either as it has only four pages in it... Ayrehead02 (talk) 01:06, December 26, 2013 (UTC)

  • Being more specific than Menk's objection, you need to mention that first sentence of the intro. Also you might want to look at this.
    • Ok I think that's all fixed. Ayrehead02 (talk) 19:42, December 23, 2013 (UTC)
  • You must avoid that much use of pronouns to define Nagma, it's drawing us out from the main subject which is the plant, so please trim them down (suggestions would be "the Monsolar native" or just "Nagma"). Winterz (talk) 15:11, December 23, 2013 (UTC)
    • Changed them where possible. Ayrehead02 (talk) 19:42, December 23, 2013 (UTC)
  • Please, get rid of the {{Cr}} template, writing down the respective currency. Winterz (talk) 01:50, December 24, 2013 (UTC)
    • Sorry to butt in, but the credit template is fine and is used in a lot of status articles. No reason to remove it. Menkooroo (talk) 02:05, December 24, 2013 (UTC)
      • It's pratical for infoboxes, just that. In the body, it's better if the currency is specifically written, just like here. Winterz (talk) 02:25, December 24, 2013 (UTC)
        • You'll find it in the body of a lot of status articles, though (nyah, nyah, nyah, nyah, etc). In the absence of policy, it's really just a matter of personal taste. I don't want to draw this out into a big thing, but this one should be left up to Ayrehead. Menkooroo (talk) 02:48, December 24, 2013 (UTC)
          • To be honest I quite like the Cr simple in article bodies, just like you'd use the pound or dollar sign. If this is really an issue for you I'll change it but otherwise I'm going to leave it as it is. Ayrehead02 (talk) 13:32, December 24, 2013 (UTC)

  • Article looks very good. I have one bit: I'm to understand Dining at Dex's should actually be an Appearance, since it's written in-universe (so I'm told, never having read it myself). I know that other status articles have treated it this way. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 09:09, January 15, 2014 (UTC)
    • Changed a while back but forgot to reply here. Ayrehead02 (talk) 12:04, January 25, 2014 (UTC)
      • Ok, but if the subject didn't actually "appear" in that article, then it's not the subject's first appearance. I'm guessing it was just listed among the diner's food choices or whatever, which would still qualify as the first mention, meaning the Insider article is still the subject's first appearance.
