  • "One of the genders that the Kobarian swamp dogs existed in was male." - This seems like an odd way of putting it. Perhaps rephrase.
    • How's that? 501st dogma(talk) 00:58, November 4, 2013 (UTC)
      • Still odd. Is there a problem with just saying that "One of the kobarian swamp dog genders was male" without having this "existed" stuff? Thefourdotelipsis (talk) 02:03, November 4, 2013 (UTC)
        • Now? 501st dogma(talk) 18:13, November 5, 2013 (UTC)
  • Marvel Vader is such a prick. Thefourdotelipsis (talk) 04:18, October 28, 2013 (UTC)

  • We have a formal layout for non-sentient species. Please learn it and apply it here. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 04:02, December 16, 2013 (UTC)
    • Thanks for pointing that out. I've changed the layout, but I'm not sure if I should split the History section. Thanks for looking it over. 501st dogma(talk) 18:59, December 17, 2013 (UTC)
      • A good rule of thumb is that any events that take place on their homeworld should go into the "History." Anything that takes place outside of their homeworld belongs in the "[Species] in the galaxy" section. Try to look at it from that angle. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 17:17, December 18, 2013 (UTC)
        • Think I split it right. 501st dogma(talk) 14:38, December 20, 2013 (UTC)
  • Does the original source really not use a comma in the sentence "Well done Captain" in the main quote?
    • Nice catch - fixed.
  • I really don't like the way the "Behavior" section is worded, saying that "some" of the creatures did this and that. It makes it sound like you have multiple examples of these behaviors, when really the only example we have is the two dogs from the Insider story. I think you should rewrite that to explain that these behaviors are only exemplified in two specific dogs. It wouldn't be inappropriate to even name the dogs at that point in the article with a little context. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 03:42, January 1, 2014 (UTC)
    • Is that better? 501st dogma(talk) 19:52, January 4, 2014 (UTC)
