- Looks good to me.Jedi Kasra (comlink) 00:02, January 14, 2010 (UTC)
- I'm still amazed that there can be so much about the most minor NPCs. Nayayen—TALK 01:16, January 14, 2010 (UTC)
- That's one of the things that makes the game so great: rich backstories and engaging interactions with NPCs :) SoresuMakashi(Everything I tell you is a lie) 06:55, January 14, 2010 (UTC)
- I love how minor articles like this can become something higher, so to speak. Antonstaen 18:06, January 15, 2010 (UTC)

I've only got two things: Firstly, didn't Onasi say something about Revan's generosity after this as well? Secondly, you might want to mention that you get the 100 credits back from the bounty hunters' remains.Nayayen—TALK 15:45, January 13, 2010 (UTC)- The first objection I don't think really has any bearing on the merchant himself, and I've added a BTS note about the second. Thanks for the review Nayayen. SoresuMakashi(Everything I tell you is a lie) 23:17, January 13, 2010 (UTC)
Does anything in the game actually state his homeworld to be Taris?Jonjedigrandmaster (Jedi Beacon) 15:22, January 23, 2010 (UTC)- Oops :/. You're right there. A question though: for Kebla Yurt, nommed below, is it OK to say she's Tarisian? I mean she owns a large store, and she had been on the planet from at least the time of the Mandalorian Wars. And for Gorton Colu, he consistently refers to "our planet", and does quite a lot of campaigning for changes to Taris. Is that enough to say they're Tarisian, or should we stick fully to what's clearly stated? SoresuMakashi(Everything I tell you is the truth) 21:50, January 23, 2010 (UTC)
- Well, as I understand it, the homeworld field is for where the character was born, and just because she's been there for a while doesn't mean she was born there. As for the "our planet" references, she could just as easily have been born somewhere else and then moved to Taris and lived there for most of her life; but as I understand it, that doesn't make it her homeworld. Jonjedigrandmaster (Jedi Beacon) 14:19, January 24, 2010 (UTC)
- I was under the impression that "homeworld" referred t where one made their home, or the planet that one would call "home." Anakin Skywalker wasn't born on Tatooine, but that's still widely accepted as his homeworld. Darth Trayus(Trayus Academy) 06:36, January 25, 2010 (UTC)
- Yes I most certainly concur with Trayus. We can hardly say Luke is Polis Massan. Since we normally put location of death into the "died" section, I believe where someone was born should go into the "born" section, leaving homeworld for where a person makes his "home". If this isn't what we do already, I think this deserves some discussion. Leave this nom up here for a few more days please so we can let this one flesh out. SoresuMakashi(Everything I tell you is the truth) 10:39, January 25, 2010 (UTC)
- Fair enough. We just need to clarify what "homeworld" means then; should it be where the character is born, where they live most of their life, where they currently live, or where they spend most of their childhood, etc.? Jonjedigrandmaster (Jedi Beacon) 16:11, January 25, 2010 (UTC)
- I'll make an SH thread then? SoresuMakashi(Everything I tell you is a lie) 22:35, January 25, 2010 (UTC)
- Sure, or maybe a CT would be better? Jonjedigrandmaster (Jedi Beacon) 22:37, January 25, 2010 (UTC)
