  • Referencing in the intro isn't needed.
    • Not sure why that was still there, definitely unintentional. Fixed. DFaceG (talk) 03:21, 23 January 2022 (UTC)
  • I think it would be better to swap the intro and description quotes with one another-the latter has the move's name while the former quote describes it. Fan26 (Talk) 19:28, 22 January 2022 (UTC)

  • CB-23 is quote exclusive and should be linked in the quote description. NBDani (talk) 12:33, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
  • I could be wrong but saying "the Castilon asteroid field" implies it's a proper name (it's a conjecture title) and that there are no other asteroid fields, which feels like speculation. NBDani (talk) 12:33, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
    • Rephrased. DFaceG (talk) 21:05, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
  • I'm not sure "Signal from Sector Six" being the 7th episode is sourcable to the episode itself nor does the ABCPress link. This link provides the air date and episode number for Signal luckily but unfortunately there wasn't one for "Signal from Sector Six" archived. NBDani (talk) 12:33, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
    • Provided adequate source. DFaceG (talk) 21:05, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
      • The appearance needs to be sourced to the episode itself, and another source needs to identified the episode number as the episode guide does not. I think the link I provided has the episode number AND the air date. NBDani (talk) 20:21, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
  • The refence note from the episode guide should include {{C|Slide X}} (where X is the slide number) after the link. NBDani (talk) 12:33, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
  • I didn't catch Poe being referred to as a Commnader in the episode. May need another source for the title. NBDani (talk) 12:33, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
    • Source added. DFaceG (talk) 21:05, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
  • You'll need to check The Survivor as it adapts the episode to see if it 1. Appears. 2. Anything new/different. Lucky (pet) had some differences in the adaptation it appeared in for reference. I plan to pick this book up eventually but don't have access to it at the moment. User:Master Fredcerique is the only user I know with access to it at the moment so you may be able to reach out to him for help. NBDani (talk) 16:49, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
    • Nominator is in the process of tracking down the source. NBDani (talk) 12:46, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
      • Appearance added. Nominee does appear in the source but no new/differing information is given. Thanks to User:Master Fredcerique for helping out with this one. DFaceG (talk) 03:07, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

  • Bit of dating ref trouble here: ref 4 doesn't need the "five years before the Starkiller Incident" info at all, since the article doesn't use the 29 ABY figure anywhere and is all about events in 34 ABY anyway. What the reference note does need, however, is show why the events of the episode must have occurred before 34 ABY, and therefore during the Cold War. Imperators II(Talk) 21:53, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
    • I've taken a shot at addressing it, if I can improve it in any way let me know. DFaceG (talk) 23:06, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
      • Before I actually dive in and help you streamline it, let me ask this though: does the episode itself not support it being set during a time of tensions between the First Order and the Resistance? Imperators II(Talk) 14:46, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
        • The episode does involve Kaz's mission to spy on the First Order, but no discussion is made of the Resistance's direct conflict with the First Order, just the First Order's activities on the Colossus. There is no direct mention of the Cold War or the conflict. DFaceG (talk) 04:56, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
          • If it involves the Resistance spying on the First Order, it's completely fair to source the fact that there was a state of tension (=Cold War) between the two parties to the episode itself. Imperators II(Talk) 10:21, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
  • Please note in History that at some point that X-wing performed the maneuver against that TIE fighter. Imperators II(Talk) 22:01, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
  • It seems to me that there's a bit of intro-exclusive information: the performer "briefly drifting" next to an asteroid, and then "blasting off away" from the asteroid. The Description doesn't really go into that much detail. Imperators II(Talk) 19:47, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
    • Detail added. DFaceG (talk) 02:26, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
