Lee attacks

• This led to many people considering her a sploiled brat. Hm, can we really say if only one calls her so many people think she is that?
  • That was straight from the CSWE. SoresuMakashi^{(Everything I tell you is a lie)} 10:18, August 22, 2010 (UTC)
    • Oh, my bad.
• That's all. Clone Commander Lee ^Talk 10:05, August 22, 2010 (UTC)
  • Thanks for the review. SoresuMakashi^{(Everything I tell you is the truth)} 10:18, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

Cylka

• In the intro you call Revan an ensign, but in the article, just a soldier.
  • Changed to soldier. SoresuMakashi^{(Everything I tell you is the truth)} 04:32, August 26, 2010 (UTC)
• This led to many people considering her a spoiled brat. Lavin used enforcers employed by her father to rough others up. - The second sentence seems to be abruptly tacked onto the end of the first one. See if you can adjust the wording to have it flow a bit better.
  • Addressed, hopefully. SoresuMakashi^{(Everything I tell you is the truth)} 04:32, August 26, 2010 (UTC)
• The word "sacked" is a bit too colloquial.
  • Changed to dismissed. SoresuMakashi^{(Everything I tell you is a lie)} 04:32, August 26, 2010 (UTC)
• Good job, Soresu. Cylka^-talk- 23:21, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Toprawa

• I've reloaded the infobox for you. Please make sure you remember to do that for each new article you write. In other words, don't use the old infobox formatting you find already placed in the article from months or years before. I imagine at least one of the newly added fields can be filled. Please check it out.
  • A remnant of the original article. Fixed for Lavin, as well as Garouk. SoresuMakashi^{(Everything I tell you is the truth)} 06:15, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
• Would it be fair to pipelink alcohol into "drinks" in the infobox and in the body of the article?
  • She said that the bartender could mix them something "special". It's a reasonable assumption to say it's alcohol, but I'd prefer not to speculate on the subject, especially considering the range of beverages available in the galaxy. SoresuMakashi^{(Everything I tell you is a lie)} 06:15, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
    • Fair enough. Toprawa and Ralltiir 04:33, August 30, 2010 (UTC)
• No article for her friend at the bar?
  • She's never named in the game, and is just given a generic NPC title. When talking to her, you don't enter the dialogue screen either, only a little pop-up. In general, such NPCs aren't given an article, but if you think that's notable enough, I guess I could make one. SoresuMakashi^{(Everything I tell you is a lie)} 06:15, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
• No article for her father? Toprawa and Ralltiir 16:32, August 26, 2010 (UTC)
  • He's not given a name or anything, just a passing mention. Again, this is flexible, and I wouldn't mind making one. SoresuMakashi^{(Everything I tell you is the truth)} 06:15, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
    • To respond to both of these objection discussions, I don't see why not to create articles. She only has one friend with her at the bar, and she only has one father. It's not like these characters' existences are dependent on certain factors. They exist. They deserve an article. Toprawa and Ralltiir 04:33, August 30, 2010 (UTC)
      • Done and done. Stubs now, but they'll be made CA's at a later date. Thanks for the review. SoresuMakashi^{(Everything I tell you is a lie)} 08:56, August 30, 2010 (UTC)
        • Go for the gold. Toprawa and Ralltiir 17:19, August 30, 2010 (UTC)
