Objections

  • In most cases, the standard ordering for prose goes "species gender" rather than the opposite (at least, unless the character is non-binary), so would be ideal for that to be swapped for intro/PT.
  • It is not really ideal to ever have 4-paragraph sections whenever possible to avoid, unless there is some particular or extenuating circumstances (ie major film character, weird timeline stuff). Here, I'd suggest either merging the top two, or introducing 2/2 paragraph subsectioning.
  • The second paragraph of the PT seems more like skills info than PT regarding combat.—spookywillowwtalk 17:18, 10 October 2025 (UTC)
  • I don't really think the Skills has enough content to justify splitting it into two short paragraphs (esp given the first one is just two sentences total); would be better off merged there.
  • Seems like you've got some dupe linking issues in the BTS.
  • Ronin: A Visions Novel isn't the only 2021 source being discussed in the BTS. This means that a full release date for it should be introduced/sourced.
  • Regarding the bit about Payback, note that all punctuation such as periods and commas goes inside of " and not outside (see the end of the last BTS sentence for what I'm talking about).
  • It also seems Payback is being introduced with incomplete context: its part of Volume 3, and specifically episodic or installment-based media is always introduced with full dates, not year-only.
  • In cases of last resort (ie stuff not being on tcdb), we do allow for ebay or other listings to be used for card links so as to provide at least some card information to readers, as that's better than nothing. In this case, that "The Duel" Topps card can be found with front and back here or here can be used, until tcdb gets them.—spookywillowwtalk 18:23, 11 October 2025 (UTC)

  • Did you mean to remove the information about his belt being reused for Vol 3 in this edit? CometSmudge (talk) 18:15, 10 October 2025 (UTC)
  • Per the layout guide, the concept art used to illustrate the prose also needs to be included in the concept art gallery if there is one
  • The concept art should also be mentioned in the BTS
  • I think the quote in Personality and Traits might be more relevant in Skills and Abilities, since that section references what he says in it
  • I don't think the Gran being a group leader is citable to the novel CometSmudge (talk) 02:06, 25 October 2025 (UTC)
  • The BTS is only three paragraphs, so it doesn't need to be sectioned (except for the gallery, which can have its own section)
  • Unless there's another source with the same release year being mentioned, reference books only need publication years, not full release dates, so that should be changed for The Art of Star Wars: Visions CometSmudge (talk) 19:03, 25 October 2025 (UTC)
    • Changed. Stake black msg 21:16, 25 October 2025 (UTC)
      • Just to clarify, the concept art gallery should be in a subsection, while the rest of the BTS shouldn't, so I changed that in my copyedit CometSmudge (talk) 22:32, 25 October 2025 (UTC)
Lew
  • If the novel has the Trandoshan's death then it seems you can cut the cite for the episode in the death field Lewisr (talk) 04:51, 22 October 2025 (UTC)
  • Throat is a Legends page, so unless you plan to make a canon one, I'd suggest removing the link Lewisr (talk) 04:51, 22 October 2025 (UTC)
  • Just curious, but what does the art book say about the height? Lewisr (talk) 04:51, 22 October 2025 (UTC)
    • Addressed the above. Regarding the height, I included the image on the art book that shows the height. As you can see, he's 2.30m tall when leaning his head to the side. Stake black msg 06:41, 22 October 2025 (UTC)
      • Great thanks that helps! Though wouldn't it be 2.10m? Lewisr (talk) 20:02, 22 October 2025 (UTC)
Fred strikes back
  • The image in the Bts needs to also be detailed in the prose, not just the caption. Master FredceriqueCommerce Guild(talk) (he/him) 07:20, 31 October 2025 (UTC)
