Imperators II
Context for Alderaanians and Alderaan in the intro, and context for Death Star, please.- Done. Ayrehead02 (talk) 16:49, August 9, 2016 (UTC)
"the Alderaanians killed the commander [...] sought to avenge him by shooting down the Alderaanian's starship" - just checking: are both usages of "Alderaanian" correct here (plural forms, apostrophes)?- The first one's fine, the second one has been reworded for a later objection. Ayrehead02 (talk) 16:49, August 9, 2016 (UTC)
- OK, but as it is right now, it's still unclear as to who were the Alderaanians that killed Dreed or where did they come from, or why were they on Skaradosh.
- Added some context. Ayrehead02 (talk) 17:58, August 9, 2016 (UTC)

Are there any articles for both the Alderaanian ship and the decoy to link to?- The ship he thinks he's destroying is the Mellcrawler. I've reworded the article to make this more clear. The decoy doesn't have an article, but isn't a full ship, just a hunk of mechanical bits. Ayrehead02 (talk) 16:49, August 9, 2016 (UTC)
Either use "Alliance to Restore the Republic" or "Rebel Alliance" consistently, or explain in the article that they are the same organization.- Fixed. Ayrehead02 (talk) 16:49, August 9, 2016 (UTC)
Please create an article for the battle on Espirion and link to it.- I've always treated the battle as the culmination of the mission to rescue the Alderaanians, and don't really think it needs its own article since it's so brief. If you feel strongly about it I can make one, but this rationale seems to have been fine in previous nominations. Ayrehead02 (talk) 16:49, August 9, 2016 (UTC)
- Ah, OK. Is fine with me. Imperators II(Talk) 17:38, August 9, 2016 (UTC)

Please add the link that identifies Venk's name to the External links section. Here's an example.Imperators II(Talk) 16:14, August 9, 2016 (UTC)- Done .Ayrehead02 (talk) 16:49, August 9, 2016 (UTC)
Toprawa
The second paragraph of the first subsection never once mentions Venk. An article this brief shouldn't go that long without mentioning its subject. Please find a way to tie that information back to Venk within that paragraph.- Added a mention. Ayrehead02 (talk) 18:36, August 31, 2016 (UTC)
The first paragraph of the second subsection is not sourced, which now extends to the second paragraph, since I inserted a break in there. I point this out to you rather than fixing it myself since this is pretty much the Cardinal Sin of Wookieepedia.- Ah I must have missed it after recently splitting the paragraph. Ayrehead02 (talk) 18:36, August 31, 2016 (UTC)
As with Dreed, I'd like to see an Equipment section detail his Imperial officer's uniform and any weaponry he may use.- Added. Ayrehead02 (talk) 18:36, August 31, 2016 (UTC)
- Reviewing notes. "Human" is not capitalized in Canon, and we only capitalize ranks when they precede a character's name. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 02:08, August 30, 2016 (UTC)
- Oops, shouldn't have missed those. Thanks for the copyedit. Ayrehead02 (talk) 18:36, August 31, 2016 (UTC)

Regarding the Tumblr link present in the references and the external links. First, I'd definitely recommend you include a backup link (as encouraged by WP:S). Second, I'd like to see some consistency between the title formatting in two links, specifically the title. In the reference you include the entire Tumblr question whereas in the external link you include some of it and end it with an ellipsis. I'd recommend you just remove the entire question from both links or alternatively include the entire thing in both links. Up to you.1358 (Talk) 16:21, September 1, 2016 (UTC)- Tope was kind enough to add an archive link for me, and I've removed the question from both as it was fairly unwieldy. Ayrehead02 (talk) 20:29, September 1, 2016 (UTC)
- If I may, I think the better solution would be to go with the abbreviated titled "Jordan D. White House Press Secretary — In Princess Leia 5, who is that battle-scarred guy..." Not only does that provide some extra clarification for the reader, but that's actually the title used in both the URL and the browser tab. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 01:09, September 2, 2016 (UTC)
