  • The intro says he's human but the Bts says his species is unidentified.
  • the junior counselor hired many people to surreptitiously spread the word about Impeveri" If Impervi is the junior conselor, then the wording here's a bit weird. Probably replace Impervi with him in this spot.
    • Fixed. I used the original wording because I was concerned that use of "him" could be ambiguous in respect to whether it refers to Blakken or Westa Impeveri, but on re-reading the article I think my fears were unfounded. --Jinzler (talk)
  • That's all I got, good job. Commander Code-8 To say hi, press 42 09:00, December 12, 2012 (UTC)

  • "In 33 BBY,[2] Blakken faced re-election to his position on the council, and he was a popular favorite to win the vote. However, Westa Impeveri, a former criminal and a junior counselor on the Hedrett Council, stood against Blakken in the election, and the junior counselor hired many people to surreptitiously spread the word about him, to boost his reputation." These two sentences read kind of awkward; could you try rewording them for a better flow? 1358 (Talk) 00:05, December 23, 2012 (UTC)

Floyd has one thing
  • Couldn't some of the info in the quotes be integrated into the article, the P&T especially? The first thing that comes to mind is him flipping and calling the dude "wampa-breath". IFYLOFD (Floyd's crib) 01:13, December 26, 2012 (UTC)
    • Haha, yeah that quote amused me and was the main reason why I nominated the article. I have now added some additional information. --Jinzler (talk) 21:32, January 2, 2013 (UTC)
