- The clone
Is there a reason you mention his Knighting before the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, instead of ordering it chronologically? It's a bit strange, but I'd thought I'd ask you.- Well it's because I didn't want it to be inferred that he was promoted to the rank of Jedi Knight in 26 ABY, which seemed to be what I was saying. Anyway, I re-ordered the information, see what you think.
Can you check the first sentence of the P&T? The subject/plural agreement doesn't seem to be quite correct.- It was missing another — see what you think.

- The Grand Master
"By 26 ABY, Itoklo had achieved the rank of Jedi Knight; the previous year, however, the galaxy had been invaded by an extra-galactic warfaring species known as the Yuuzhan Vong." Rather awkward, but that might be fixed if reordered, as CC suggested above.- Yup, reworded as with CC's objection.
"Blazing a path of conquest from the Outer Rim Territories toward the Galactic Core, elements of the Yuuzhan Vong leadership saw a threat in the New Jedi Order and its members." Could you specifiy why they saw the Order as a threat?- Added info. Check it out.
Could you reword the P&t? The second sentence is a little short and choppy.Jonjedigrandmaster (Jedi Beacon) 20:12, 15 June 2009 (UTC)- Reworded.
- Jon, I also made some changes to the changes you had made during your copyedit. Some of them I wasn't sure about, like removing a semi-colon, which seemed to break up the flow of the writing. For future reference, it's improper to refer to the Yuuzhan Vong only as "Vong", as that's a slang term. Thanks for the quick review. -- —Harrar (Cut the comm chatter) 22:31, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
- Understood, no problem :). Jonjedigrandmaster (Jedi Beacon) 00:01, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

The first sentence of the Biography is a bit of a mouthful. Could you split it up, perhaps adding a bit more detail on the Etti species generally, beyond just saying that they are near-Human? Other than that, a good article. --Eyrezer 01:39, 16 June 2009 (UTC)- "Hailing from the planet Etti IV, Seyyerin Itoklo was a member of the near-Human Etti species, a blue-skinned race known for their slender and delicate physiques." — unfortunately, I've taken that info from the Etti article, which is not sourced. I imagine the source is Alien Encounters; being a species expert, could you check this :P? -- —Harrar (Cut the comm chatter) 09:32, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
- That is the kind of thing I was going for. I checked it against AE, and made one small change - their skin is descirbed as pale, not as blue. --Eyrezer 10:39, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
- Wooh, we are both promoting a GA and improving other areas of the Wook contemporaneously! Cheers for the review. -- —Harrar (Cut the comm chatter) 11:13, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
