Lee's charge
  • It kinda looks like "had" and "a" is written together in the comic. Albeit this is wrong, IMHO the quote should reflect this.
    • Interesting. I didn't even notice that. I'm guessing the writer meant that similar to how we would use "gimme" or "coulda," which aren't exactly words. I'll just preset it as "hada" in the quote.
  • Could you mention that the Galactic Civil War was fought between Rebels and Empire when you first mention it? That would make it easier to understand why the Executor destroyed it. I'm correct in assuming that it is not stated against whom the Rebels fought to win the depot?
    • I usually don't do this very thing because I feel like it's unnecessary context for the intro, given that the combatants of the Galactic Civil War are an elementary understanding of Star Wars, but I added a brief addition.
  • Context for the Sanjin Greenhawks. They are a military group/unit, right?
    • The source offers no additional context for them other than they took Laakteen Depot. We don't even know if they're a Rebel unit.
  • You source the destruction date in the infobox to reference 4, in the body to reference 10. Which one is correct?
    • They're both correct. If you read Reference 4, you'll see that both reference notes cite NEC. I wrote a manual reference note for Ref 4 to include the GrS date, which isn't strictly necessary in the Bio.
  • Should the misspelling of the depot in the Atlas be mentioned in the sources section like it is with Lockdown?
    • No, because it does not say "Lakteen Depot"; it only says "Lakteen." I'm interpreting that as a reference to Laakteen. The book also correctly spells "Laakteen Depot" on another page.

  • It would be nice if you could link to Laakteen in the intro, and maybe add that it was located on that planetoid.
  • In the body, in the last sentence, you need to add that the Executor shattered the defensive shield of the depot.
    • I disagree. That paragraph already states that Laakteen Depot was destroyed. That the defense shield was shattered is a redundant minor detail that is probably better left for the destruction of Laakteen Depot article. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 02:31, May 8, 2014 (UTC)
      • If the shields had not been destroyed by the Executor, Laakteen Depot most likely would not have been taken out so easily, so it is worth adding. 501st dogma(talk) 12:15, May 9, 2014 (UTC)
  • Could we get an article for the capture of Laakteen base by the Alliance maybe? Not sure if it warrants an article.
    • I didn't create it because it's not clear whether it was a single battle, a campaign, or something else entirely. I'm not sure it warrants an article. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 02:31, May 8, 2014 (UTC)
  • Good work. 501st dogma(talk) 23:39, May 6, 2014 (UTC)
