• Can you provide some indication of the time period in which the events took place?
• Category:Unidentified spacecraft can be added. Zed42 (talk) 21:38, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
  • Sorry for taking so long. Both are now addressed. OOM 224 ^{༼༽talk༼༽} 18:45, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
• I think the fact that it served as a transport can be detailed in the infobox's Role field.
• Having looked at a gameplay video, it appears that the transport ship serves as part of the levels in-game. I think briefly mentioning that in the BTS is appropriate.
• The infobox image has an {{Imagequality}} tag on it. Are you able to resolve that issue? Zed42 (talk) 09:29, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
  • All addressed. I've also expanded the article with relevant information after finding an Aurebesh inscription on the ship, which I've deciphered with the help of Immi Thrax and NanoLuuke. OOM 224 ^{༼༽talk༼༽} 12:57, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
    • The image can also be cropped to focus more on the freighter and remove the empty space to the lower right. Zed42 (talk) 21:47, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
      • Made a tighter crop. OOM 224 ^{༼༽talk༼༽} 21:51, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
• I think the body image should be moved to the top of that section so that it intrudes less on the BTS.
• Since the article and the game were released in the same year, the a more detailed release date should be given for the game, per the end of this section. Zed42 (talk) 01:56, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
  • Both addressed. OOM 224 ^{༼༽talk༼༽} 09:20, 11 March 2021 (UTC)

• If the freighter is the setting for the first level doesn't that mean there's information about the interior that could be included?
  • Good catch. I've added what I can.
    • Looking at some playthroughs of the game on YouTube there seems to be quite a number of levels set within the freighter. And they seem to go in descending order based on the fact that the droids jump into portals to leave. Would it be feasible or accurate consider those part of the freighter and include them in the description? Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 11:31, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
      • No, it's just a game mechanic. Otherwise, pit droids diving underground on the streets of Mos Espa would be canonical :P OOM 224 ^{༼༽talk༼༽} 21:54, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
        • Fair enough, in that case I think the number of levels can be included in the Bts then. Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 01:23, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
          • I don't think that's necessary, but I've added the total number of stages. OOM 224 ^{༼༽talk༼༽} 09:20, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
• I think the player character can have an article.
• The body image caption needs a full stop since it's a full sentence. Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 00:56, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
  • Both addressed. OOM 224 ^{༼༽talk༼༽} 07:48, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
• Jedi vs Sith says that Anakin was born in 41 BBY, arrived on Tatooine when he was around three years old and was bought by Watto shortly afterwards, so you can narrow the timeframe to between roughly 38 BBY and 32 BBY. The end date can also be sourced to that book for convienience.
  • I've checked that book's p. 206, which I think is what you're referring to, and it does not provide BBY dates. Moreover, it's an in-universe account that uses ambiguous wording such as "It is believed that." For these reasons I disagree with adding information from that source. Thanks for checking though. OOM 224 ^{༼༽talk༼༽} 21:54, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
• I think you can also elaborate on the player's role a lil bit, saying that they placed whatever those arrow pads are to coordinate the droids getting out of the ship into Watto's shop. Commander Code-8 ^{Hello There!} 11:31, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
  • I disagree. That's a game mechanic. Also, for this article, saying that an individual working for Watto coordinated the pit droids from the freighter to the podrace arena is enough. OOM 224 ^{༼༽talk༼༽} 21:54, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
