Objections

26

• Ref notes don't go in the intro Fan26 (Talk) 04:17, 20 October 2025 (UTC)
  • Fixed. I somehow missed that when I moved from no intro to intro. ThePedantry (talk) 04:19, 20 October 2025 (UTC)

spookly

• Do think the "spelled as" used here sounds a bit OOU-ish within an IU section. The standard is "also known as XYZs" or just "or XYZs,"—spookywilloww^talk 20:40, 22 October 2025 (UTC)
  • Updated. ThePedantry (talk) 21:01, 22 October 2025 (UTC)

• I think the intro could use just a little expanding Lewisr (talk) 00:02, 16 November 2025 (UTC)
  • Wasn't quite sure exactly what to add to expand, let me know what you think of the additions. ThePedantry (talk) 18:05, 17 November 2025 (UTC)
    • Yeah either that or something about the Book of Boba Fett would've been fine Lewisr (talk) 23:42, 19 November 2025 (UTC)
• It looks like this might have been missed before, and not seeing any reason it should have been removed Lewisr (talk) 00:02, 16 November 2025 (UTC)
  • Not sure at all why I removed that. Fixed. ThePedantry (talk) 18:05, 17 November 2025 (UTC)

OOM

• Would be lovely if the BTS mentions the real-life yak. OOM 224 18:05, 24 November 2025 (UTC)
  • I can add that, but I am wondering, do we have precedent for mentioning a real-life animal like that? I can't find any example in any of our other status species. Should we update the other status articles to do that as well? ThePedantry (talk) 19:30, 25 November 2025 (UTC)
    • For canon GAs we've got garlic, limestone, and glow worm, for example, so I'd say other SAs should be updated similarly, yeah. OOM 224 22:22, 28 November 2025 (UTC)
      • Updated. ThePedantry (talk) 01:41, 30 November 2025 (UTC)
