~~Do we know if the battle was "on" Suurja, given the lack of specification about the battle's details? It would be safer and more accurate to say "at" Suurja if it's not known.~~
- Changed.
It seems to be assumed that the "defensive cordon" may not necessarily refer to starships, but there's an inconsistency with this in the article, as "The battle" states that there were "Republic naval forces" involved (which would be assumed to be starships). Please clarify. If it's reasonable to assume from the available source material that there were Republic ships involved, that should be noted in the infobox and elsewhere in the article—otherwise, the "Republic naval forces" needs to be adjusted.
- Well, Republic naval forces are involved. There's no info given as to what the cordon consists of, so its vague. I'm not sure if there's really an issue.
  - Would it be prudent to add something like "Elements of the Republic Navy" to the Republic's side of the infobox? I'll leave it up to you if you think it would be helpful; I won't push it if you think it's not. CC7567 ^(talk) 01:54, February 23, 2013 (UTC)
    - Done. IFYLOFD ^{(Floyd's crib)} 05:46, February 24, 2013 (UTC)
      - Would you be able to mention and/or link starships somewhere in the infobox, intro, and body if possible? That would make sure that it's clear what Karath's forces were comprised of. CC7567 ^(talk) 18:06, February 24, 2013 (UTC)
        Well... all we know is the Navy is involved. We don't know anything about what their forces consisted of. IFYLOFD ^{(Floyd's crib)} 23:41, February 26, 2013 (UTC)
To clarify: does The Taris Holofeed: Prime Edition specifically reference this battle? If not (i.e. it only mentions "several battles" at Suurja or something of the like), then it should be an {{Imo}}. Just wanted to make sure that's correct. CC7567 ^(talk) 22:13, February 22, 2013 (UTC)
- Changed. It isn't explicitly mentioned, I guess. It mentions that there were four battles, but that's all. IFYLOFD ^{(Floyd's crib)} 01:05, February 23, 2013 (UTC)

Toprawa

This is a general objection for all of these four Suurja battles that you're apparently writing. Considering that they are conjectural, I strongly recommend moving them to, for example, "First battle of Suurja," which is how we've treated conjectural battle titles previously.

- Done. IFYLOFD ^{(Floyd's crib)} 23:41, February 26, 2013 (UTC)
