  • Could you please provide the writer and artist information for that short story?

  • I'd say the History section has enough room for another image. What do you think?

  • The diameter note could use minor rewording as the valve must have been "just" large enough to fit BB-8 for that approximate length. TanDivoInsignia-SenateMurders Anıl Şerifoğlu (talk) 23:23, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

  • There's a line on the first page "He must have gotten our…" that can be used to eliminate the extra ref on Kaz's pronouns.
    • The only refs for pronouns on the article are for Neeku and BB-8. - Thannus (DFaceG) (he/him) (talk) 00:13, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

  • Comic seems to specify they were there to steal weapons, after bypassing the other equipment around.—spookywillowwtalk 00:07, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

  • Hmm, the diameter reasoning reads a bit weird to me. Do we see if the full height of BB-8 fits inside the pump intake valve, or is it maybe just his body sans his head? The 0.67 m figure is for body+head, which from illustrations have a roughly 1:2 ratio. So saying that the valve was approximately 67 centimeters (quite a specific figure, that) in diameter makes sense if BB-8 is shown to just fit his body's diameter in it, but if his full height fits, it doesn't really make as much sense to me (i.e., saying "approximately 67 centimeters" when it could be +/- as much as 20-ish centimeters).

    • Perhaps not, but the 1:2 ratio and potential 47 cm size is also a bit speculatory; I'm not sure how best to go about this but I'm open to suggestions. It'd be really convenient if there was a source that specifically mentioned BB-8's diameter lol - Thannus (DFaceG) (he/him) (talk) 01:02, 9 November 2023 (UTC)
      • (The approximate ratio of 1:2 is just obvious from the infobox image, not speculation lol.) But. I think a much more practical approach for the valve article would be to just omit any hard figures whatsoever and simply say in the Description that BB-8 could fit inside it. Keep it simple until the time where we potentially get some more info. Imperators II(Talk) 08:31, 9 November 2023 (UTC)
