  • Initial objection: Please expand the introduction.--Exiled Jedi Oldrepublic crest (Greetings) 13:45, May 9, 2015 (UTC)
  • I see a contraction in the introduction. Please look through the article and remove any contractions.
  • Why is it in the Creatures of unspecified diet category?
  • With the information about the voroos being found on different habitats on multiple planets, I think you can have a short "Voroos in the galaxy section" in addition to the information already in the article. The only part you should remove that is already present is the mention of being found on multiple planets in the behavior section. It should also briefly note the Zoologists' theory about the voroos and palaks.
  • The layout guide says that reproductive characteristics should be covered in the behavior section.--Exiled Jedi Oldrepublic crest (Greetings) 13:45, May 16, 2015 (UTC)
Toprawa
  • Image quality is pretty crappy. If you can't upload a better version, I would suggest asking Darth Culator to clean this version up for you. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 21:58, July 23, 2015 (UTC)
    • I tried finding a cleaner version and messing around with it myself but to no available, so I'll leave Culator a message. Ayrehead02 (talk) 00:03, July 30, 2015 (UTC)

  • What is the singular form of "voroos"? Depending on what it is, your use of "voroos reproduction" needs to either be formatted as "voroos's reproduction" (to preserve the plural form) or "a [singular]'s reproduction." If the singular form isn't known, I would recommend going with the first formatting.
    • They are always referred to as voroos so changed as you suggested. Ayrehead02 (talk) 00:03, July 30, 2015 (UTC)
      • "Voroos'" is actually the proper plural possessive form (similar to "humans'"), so I've adjusted it. CC7567 (talk) 07:50, July 30, 2015 (UTC)
  • "the voroos had large maws relative to the rest of their body"" this needs to be adjusted a bit, since it's not immediately clear that "relative" is intended to apply to "large"—i.e., it should say something like, "the maws were large relative to…"
  • As a note, beetle is a disambiguation page and should not be linked within any IU section of an article, so I've removed the link. CC7567 (talk) 20:41, July 28, 2015 (UTC)

Comments

  • The infobox mentions the average length as 1-10 meters. Since average is a specific number, rather than a range, can this be changed to 5 meters, or the infobox be changed to simply say length? Manoof (talk) 05:48, July 21, 2015 (UTC)
    • I'd rather avoid putting 5 as we aren't given it as an average by any source. I think we'd need to hold a CT or at least check with others before changing the information box. Ayrehead02 (talk) 00:03, July 30, 2015 (UTC)
      • Condensing an average range of 1–10 to 5 is original research, since 1–10 isn't the same thing as 5. CC7567 (talk) 07:50, July 30, 2015 (UTC)
        • I had a feeling it would be. Theoretically, average length would follow a normal distribution, so 5 would make sense, but that's speculation based on real world growth patterns. I was more interested in if the infobox could be changed to simply say length instead of average length, but threw it in there just in case :) Manoof (talk) 08:49, July 30, 2015 (UTC)
