You might want to mention in the BtS that it is ambig cannon.The description section should introduce it as a poster. Right now, its not stated outright until the History, though you do mention it as a poster later in the Description briefly.501st dogma(talk) 00:05, May 24, 2013 (UTC)

I think you may need to ref the BTS regarding the information over the poster's appearance and withdrawal from the game.- Sir Cavalier of One(Squadron channel) 14:43, May 28, 2013 (UTC)
- Would the paintings article on the SWG wiki be sufficient? OLIOSTER (talk) 23:34, June 5, 2013 (UTC)
- Just thought I could chime in briefly, as I always had somewhat of an interest in this article myself. Most of the talk about the Victorious Reign Nazi references would have been on the SWG forums (which are now out of commission). So unless an archived thread could be found, maybe this link could be used as a source instead ( http://www.zam.com/forum.html?forum=22&mid=1101973029677415412&h=50 )? It's from ZAM game forum, and although the thread gets a little heated, it shows actual discussion on the topic. StarsiderSWG (talk) 23:19, June 11, 2013 (UTC)
- Difficult one. The SWG wiki itself would not suffice as a source since it is unofficial and obviously prone to change. Likewise, the forum is mainly opinion on the matter, rather than fact. Now, I will admit to not reading all the posts, so if there are links to anything official that can be used, great. If not, then to use the forums as a source, the BTS would have to be altered to reflect that the information is based on opinion rather than fact. Unfortunately, its not a matter of what you know, but what you can prove. - Sir Cavalier of One(Squadron channel) 21:29, June 17, 2013 (UTC)
- Alright, I've edited it to cite the forum and mention it was only a theory amongst the playerbase. I've also removed bits that smacked of original research. Good? OLIOSTER (talk) 23:13, June 17, 2013 (UTC)
- Good so far, but what's this "Test Center"? Is it a private server with regulated access, or a free to enter domain? If the poster appeared only in the Test Center, is their any documented proof that it actually existed (a player blog, etc?) - Sir Cavalier of One(Squadron channel) 19:41, June 25, 2013 (UTC)
- I've clarified what the test center was some more. As for the other point, the best I could come up with is this which is a cropped screenshot from the game. OLIOSTER (talk) 22:05, July 3, 2013 (UTC)
- Striking and supporting now since you've obviously mined the depths for this one. I did consider getting you to put that image in the article is some way (such as a link to it), but the swg wiki has no licensing info attached. If possible, I was wondering if you could ask the original uploader about the source of the image (self, online, etc) but I'm not going to hold this up over something that may not be answered. Sorry to be a pain over this, but you've shown some excellence patience to my queries. - Sir Cavalier of One(Squadron channel) 13:51, July 8, 2013 (UTC)

"a series of conflicts" Correct me if I'm wrong (or if Chee changed something), but the GCW is one conflict? Are you sure its a series of conflicts when referring to the whole thing?- dat Galaxies JangFett (Talk) 02:25, July 10, 2013 (UTC)
