Object

  1. You should mention that he Rogue Ten somewhere in the bio. I don't think succession boxes should convey new info. SoresuMakashi(Everything I tell you is a lie) 04:48, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
    • Done.
  2. Graestan the Merciless:
    • Ditto Soresu, and I'd say in the intro, as well.
      • Done.
    • A little more context for the campaign and missions in the intro, please.
      • Added.
    • Context for the campaign in the bio, as well. Vuultin isn't initially described as a city on Brentaal IV, even.
      • Added some.
    • Some explanation on the presence of Independence—the mention of it and Ackbar is a bit out of the blue.
      • Mentioned Ackbar earlier in the article, provided context for Independence.
    • Even with the "as evidenced" part, "an excellent pilot" on its own is POVish.
      • Reworded.
    • Describe his mention in Family Ties in the BtS.
      • Done.
    • File:Dar keyis.jpg has visible comic frame that needs to be cropped out.
      • I've asked Redemption for a rescan of the image; I tried myself, but I couldn't get the qaulity right.
        • No need for a re-scan, per se; only that you reupload the image, having cut off that sliver at the bottom. Graestan(Talk) 03:02, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
          • Should be good now. - Cavalier OneFarStar(Squadron channel) 10:41, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
    • Graestan(Talk) 17:56, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
    • Nothing big, but if he was first a pilot of the New Republic Starfighter Corps, couldn't that also be included in the infobox under affiliation?
      • Added.
    • Staging from Recopia, ... Could you clarify what Recopia is? Otherwise, good article. Pranay Sobusk ~ Talk 10:19, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
      • Added context on what Recopia is. - Cavalier OneFarStar(Squadron channel) 10:30, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
  3. Toprawa:
    • The last paragraph of the biography is begging for closure. What happened in the battle? Did the NR succeed in stopping the escapees?
      • Added battle conclusion.
    • I find it interesting that the BTS capitalizes the "Roll of the Dead" as a proper noun. Should we not be redlinking to this in the biography upon mention of the death roster?
      • I must have been tripping here. Its referred to as the "roster of the dead". Unfortunately, since all comic lettering is capitalized, I can't say for certain if it's meant to be a proper noun or not. Decapitalized and changed. - Cavalier OneFarStar(Squadron channel) 09:02, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
    • Also, I added "Eventually" to Tarrin Datch's field in the succ box, since nothing states direct succession. Please do the same to Fel if appropriate.
      • No need. Fel joined the squadron directly after.
    • I'm willing to bet there's an entry in SWE and/or CSWE. Toprawa and Ralltiir 18:00, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
      • How much you willing to bet? No individual entry for the character in either, and no reference under Brentaal, or Rogue Squadron. If he's in there, its a brief mention in another entry that I haven't found. - Cavalier OneFarStar(Squadron channel) 09:02, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
        • Not that much. :P Thanks for checking. Toprawa and Ralltiir 15:27, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Approved as a Good article by AgriCorps 15:27, 3 February 2009 (UTC)


Two things:

  1. Internal links the Battle of Brentaal IV article are a little off at the moment, but will align themselves once I post my rewrite of that article in a day or two.
  2. The references are screwed up - please see Forum:CT:Amending the Manual of Style to counter a problem with reference tag sourcing for the reason. - Cavalier OneFarStar(Squadron channel) 14:13, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
