Policy tells us to use the weapons infobox "Owners" field only for unique weapons- Removed. UberSoldat93 (talk) 07:56, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

I'd like to see the infobox follow the lead some of our other weapon GAs and fill in fields like "size" and "range"- Filled in those two. I couldn't see anything else I could add. UberSoldat93 (talk) 07:56, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

I'm going to cite the Manual of Style's clause on BTS quotes where it states that "Quotes including narrative text and thoughts, specifically, should be reserved strictly for illustrative purposes and not for general use." The idea here is that these kinds of non-speaking quotes should be reserved for particularly important instances where something needs to be illustrated for contextual understanding. Although this article's quote isn't strictly "narrative" per se, I think it falls within the spirit of this rule. Nothing in this quote is serving any critically important illustrative purpose. It's merely being applied in "general use," so I think you should remove it.- While working on this article, I added the quote based on what I saw on pre-existing status articles that included similar quotes: TL-50 Heavy Repeater, K-16 Bryar Pistol, CJ-9 electrified bo-rifle, and EE-4 carbine rifle (three of which you supported). Do you still want me to remove the quote? If I go ahead with the removal, then this should be reflected on those articles as well. UberSoldat93 (talk) 07:56, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

Although we don't really have any strict rules on such usage, I'm going to recommend removing these many FFG articles from the External links as being noncritical.Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 00:33, 20 December 2020 (UTC)- Removed. UberSoldat93 (talk) 07:56, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

- I am aware that the upcoming Star Wars The Clone Wars Character Encyclopedia: Join the battle! may carry Paramita's profile over from the old edition, but I've already checked the latter and it only names the weapon. UberSoldat93 (talk) 07:32, 23 November 2020 (UTC)
