Can you clarify your translation efforts in a reference note? It's clearly not a 1:1 translation (エ=E, レ=RE, ス=SU, パ=PA, ッ=elongation of next consonant, ド=DO, which therefore comes out Eresupaddo), so any steps you took toward Romanization should be noted.^Jorrel_Fraajic 08:51, November 7, 2015 (UTC)
- Good question. I've followed this discussion here, where a Japanese user gave his translation rather than a Google translation. Would you suggest that I add a link to that discussin in the BTS? The article will keep the "conjectural spelling" tag at the top.--Eyrezer (talk) 03:22, November 8, 2015 (UTC)
  - Wow, I'm sorry for forgetting about this. I'm not sure if that counts for self-referencing or not, but it's a good start. I'm not sure how the Wook system would take it, but we could alternately just move the page to エレスパッ and change all text references to the Japanese characters and explain the why in the BTS. Wouldn't need the {{conjecture}} tag for that :P ^Jorrel_Fraajic 19:42, January 26, 2016 (UTC)

Given the subject's appearance in the video game, it would seem that we have at least a general understanding of timeline placement here for the History section, which should be detailed. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 00:43, January 27, 2016 (UTC)
- I added a placement of approximately 0 BBY given that it is meant to be a retelling of Episode 4, and also added that the timing is also unclear in the BTS --Eyrezer (talk) 07:33, February 6, 2016 (UTC)
  - Sorry for the delay. The 0 BBY mention should be attributed using a special reference note to explain how/where this date is coming from, since 0 BBY is not self-sourcing and doesn't come from the game itself. This is a general example of what I'm looking for. I would recommend likewise using the NEC as your reference basis, since that's the most straightforward and comprehensive source for BBY/ABY dating.

They had brown or orange skin color, - is this the result of the in-game sprite having one skin color, but the image in the infobox (and, therefore, presumably the game manual) having a different one? Or is it based on the two-tone shading effect of the infobox image?
- The former - the gamebook and the game have different skin colouration. --Eyrezer (talk) 05:23, May 8, 2016 (UTC)
~~BTS - does information from the new SW.com article referencing the changelings as Vader's apprentices need to be factored into the second paragraph?~~ - Sir Cavalier of One^{(Squadron channel)} 23:29, March 2, 2016 (UTC)
- I added the quotation from the SW news article.--Eyrezer (talk) 05:23, May 8, 2016 (UTC)

Unanswered objections more than two weeks old. Also, the nominator not edited the site since May.--Exiled Jedi (talk) 13:47, August 20, 2016 (UTC)
