Object

  1. Skippy Farlstendoiro: For Your Consideration:
    • History: Consider mentioning that these guys were present in the galaxy by 0 ABY, as said in the intro. Skippy Farlstendoiro 10:54, October 21, 2009 (UTC)
      • Done. --Eyrezer 03:24, October 27, 2009 (UTC)
  2. The Grand Master
    • How relevant is the last part of the History section? (From "Also in the room at the time..." onward) It seems that this section could be cut down a little; it gives a little too much irrelevant information.
    • "a Ychthytonian" Is it supposed to be "a" or "an"? (I guess the real question would be how is "Ycthytonian" pronounced?) Could you check the two novels they appeared in to make sure this is correct?
    • Jonjedigrandmaster (Jedi Beacon) 13:54, October 31, 2009 (UTC)
      • Changed to "an" as per TNR. Re your other objection, I want that info in there as it is from this encounter that most information on the Ychth is gained. It could be moved to the Ychthytonians in the galaxy section but I don't really feel that is necessary. --Eyrezer 03:19, November 1, 2009 (UTC)
  3. From the Moffship of Grand Moff Tranner:
    • Is there any reason why you cite the specific chapters and page numbers for each book you reference? I don't think this is necessary.
    • I'd like to see the phrase "They were present in the galaxy by 0 ABY" (in both the intro and the history section) reworded, as it implies that the Ychthytonians were extragalactic.
    • That's all. Good job. Grand Moff Tranner Imperial Department of Military Research (Comlink) 15:33, November 1, 2009 (UTC)
      • Second one fixed. Having experienced on many occasions the frustration of tracking down a potentially one-line-name-drop from a large source, I find citing to page/chapter very useful. It saves anyone else wanting to check my work or the original source the effort of hunting through it themselves. It may not be strictly necessary, but—particularly with non-text searchable works—is useful. I hope that explains it. --Eyrezer 21:54, November 1, 2009 (UTC)
