- Is not fully sourced, per GAN rule 2(a).
- What sources are needed? Jediknight19bby (Jedi High Council Chambers) 18:27, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
Infobox needs to be fully sourced.- Fixed.
- Full of choppy sentences which could be expanded into actual paragraphs.
- Example? I don't see anything wrong with them.
- Sure → "Mace Windu along with Jedi Kit Fisto, Saesee Tiin, and Agen Kolar stopped the Crimson Nova chapter from #***carrying out any more Jedi bounties."
- "At some point, Mace would go on a successful mission to disable a Separatist weapon known as the Planet Killer, which prompted Dooku to carry on work with his own 'Planet Killer'."
- "Mace Windu, in Force-assisted dreams on Haruun Kal, accurately predicted the fall of the Jedi and the destruction of the Temple, in addition to the Yuuzhan Vong terraforming of Coruscant."
- "During the war, Master Windu took Iguni as an apprentice. He would eventually go on to be a combatant during the Second Battle of Coruscant."
- Those are some examples, but they should be fleshed out to show why they are important and what specifically Mace's roles were. Greyman(Paratus) 21:17, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
- Example? I don't see anything wrong with them.
- Could stand to be given a good copy-edit.
- Doesn't look too bad in that regard, either. But I'll still do it.
Formatting with regards to the picture in the "Continuity" section needs to be fixed.- What part of it should be fixed?
- I fixed it, since it's a little hard to explain.
- What part of it should be fixed?
There is non-canon information provided by Children of the Force in the article, but is not tagged properly.- I don't see anything that needs tagging, what does?
- Ah, that's my mistake—it's in the BtS, I mistook it for being in the main body.
- I don't see anything that needs tagging, what does?
Too many pictures.- Fixed.
Too many pictures of the same size.- Fixed...I think. That's not a very good reason to object.
- Too many pictures in most sections.
- Fixed.
- There are a lot of pictures which are right-aligned. It might be better if you tried alternating them "right, left, right, left, etc." or as needed.
- Fixed.
In the section "The final battle" there are two quotes at the beginning—one needs to go.- Fixed.
There are also quotes halfway through paragraphs—quotes should only go at the beginning of sections.- Fixed.
- That looks better.
- That's actually incorrect Greyman. Quotes shouldn't be in the center of a paragraph, but they can be located between paragraphs, particularly of long sections. - JMAS 20:55, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
- Technically you are correct JMAS, as per our Layout policy. Though quotes which do not say something about the character, or are not said by the character are usually frowned upon by most reviewers for GAN's and FAN's—especially when inserted into the middle of a long section just to fill space. The quote in question was by Palpatine and did not say, or add anything to the character/article of Mace. Therefore, I stand by this specific objection. Greyman(Paratus) 21:04, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
- And by that description, I would agree with you in this case then. - JMAS 02:56, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

- That looks better.
- Fixed.
- For a character as important as Mace Windu, even a small to medium P&T section is expected.
- Done. Feel free to expand if you don't like it.
- The section "Non-canon appearances" needs to be removed and merged with the "Appearances" section, and non-canon appearances need to be tagged with the correct template beside their name.
- Is not fully sourced, per GAN rule 2(a).
- Needs more references. --Jedimca0(Do or Do Not, There is No Try) 18:38, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
