Object

Macaroni
  • You should mention that it was identified as Christophsis's moon in Legends. JediMasterMacaroniAdmiral Ackbar RH(Talk) 14:44, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
    • Those older episode guides are actually still considered canonical as well, so that technically isn't exclusive to Legends. As such, do you think I should instead add something along the lines of "Previously only referred to as "Christophsis's moon..." to the bts? DwartiiDelver (talk) 18:26, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
      • Ah, didn't realize it was IDed in the guide. I still think you should mention it though. JediMasterMacaroniAdmiral Ackbar RH(Talk) 18:37, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
        • I can certainly add in that it was only known as "Christophsis's moon" before, but do you still think it's necessary to mention Legends at all? Personally, I'm just not sure there's much point considering it was technically known as that in canon as well (from the same source, no less) before the name "Leesis" was revealed. DwartiiDelver (talk) 18:41, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
          • Yeah, that sounds fine. JediMasterMacaroniAdmiral Ackbar RH(Talk) 18:55, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
            • Updated! DwartiiDelver (talk) 19:12, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
Toprawa
  • Checking to confirm that the episode mentions and therefore supports Anakin and Obi-Wan being generals.
    • It does indeed.
  • Reviewing note and a tip for your writing: You begin every single sentence in the History section with the same complex sentence structure before getting to the action component of your sentence (examples: "As Kenobi remained -> Skywalker took command"; "Due to the Republic's -> Trench ordered"; "As a result -> Skywalker altered"). It becomes very repetitive and doesn't make for a very well-written article. Mix in a greater variation of sentence types for more effective writing and a more interesting read. You'll see I revised the first sentence in the second History paragraph as an example. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 20:36, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
    • Got it, thanks. That's something I've tried to remain cognizant of when writing articles, though apparently I need to pay closer attention still. I altered the structure of the final sentence of the History section (and on another note, reduced the number of commas in the first History section sentence)—would you like me to try and rework another as well, or does that look all right now? DwartiiDelver (talk) 22:02, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
      • I made some minor tweaks, but what you have now is fine. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 22:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
Zed
  • I think the moon having a cracked surface is enough to assert that it is terrestrial. Zed42 (talk) 20:44, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
    • Added. Does the current final sentence of the Description section suffice as a mention of Leesis being terrestrial in the actual article, or would you like that to be more explicitly stated? DwartiiDelver (talk) 22:02, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
      • The mention of its surface implies that, but I think it can be worked into that sentence. Don't forget to add the relevant category. Zed42 (talk) 22:10, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
        • Does that look all right? DwartiiDelver (talk) 22:17, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
UberSoldat
  • I'm assuming you've already investigated these sources for appearances of the subject. UberSoldat93 ClanMudhornSignet-Redemption (talk) 08:30, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
    • I have, yes. DwartiiDelver (talk) 15:07, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
Ecks
  • Question regarding the History quote: Are the emphases yours? I checked my TCW copy and the subtitles do not have any italics. 1358 (Talk) 22:18, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
    • They are, yes—I italicized "Hyena" as some other sources do so, and I italicized "That" as Trench places emphasis on it. However, I did not realize it was common for subtitles to actually italicize words that are stated with extra emphasis. As such, I can certainly remove the italics here if you would like. DwartiiDelver (talk) 05:39, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
      • We should not be emphasizing words in quotes unless the source does it (like comics). The reason this caught my eye is that the Manual of Style actually states ship classes should not be italicized unless accompanied by "-class". 1358 (Talk) 10:24, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
        • Got it. Removed. DwartiiDelver (talk) 15:10, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
