Object

Floyd
  • The number of crewmembers is not mentioned in the article.
    • Done.
  • In the History section, you write "to poison the public's opinion. The poisoning of the public's opinion..." Try to avoid this type of repetition. IFYLOFD (Floyd's crib) 04:44, February 5, 2013 (UTC)
    • Fixed. Thanks for looking it over. 501st dogma(talk) 22:14, February 7, 2013 (UTC)
Sir Cav
  • Crew, skeleton crew and passengers are unreffed in the infobox
    • (Slaps face, and then proceeds to ref infobox completely)
  • First sighted lists "Prior to 19 BBY", and is reffed to the NEC. Now, I understand that the corvette previously served the Republic, and that this reffing is correct, but some explanation is needed for the references.
    • Is that any better? Does the double reference in the bio work now?
  • "In 19 BBY, the Republic transformed into the Galactic Empire" - transformed doesn't sound quite right. Maybe something along the lines of reorganized would be more appropriate?
    • Done.
  • In the history, you state that the ship was named the Zahtjav, then state that Beeli named the ship after acquiring it. Since it was presumably known by another name previously, perhaps you should refer to it as "the ship that would eventually become the Zahtjav" or something similar until you establish the name change made by Beeli.
    • There you go.
  • In the commanders and crew section, I think the information regarding gunner numbers and skeleton crew allotments could be moved to the description section instead.
    • Moved.
  • Category query; since Beeli had a few named ships, a category for Solar Terrors starships might be appropriate, subcatted into Category:Pirate starships. - Sir Cavalier of OneFarStar(Squadron channel) 09:49, February 21, 2013 (UTC)
    • Done. Thanks for reviewing, sir. 501st dogma(talk) 00:43, February 22, 2013 (UTC)
Attack of the Clone
  • Could you slightly re-crop the infobox image? There's a bit of a black line along the left edge.
    • Fixed.
  • There were some errors that made me frown slightly, so please take a look at my changes. CC7567 (talk) 21:48, February 22, 2013 (UTC)
    • I've looked it over. I'll try to be more careful with linking in the future. Thanks for the review. 501st dogma(talk) 13:29, February 23, 2013 (UTC)
      • There were also several typos, so please keep those in mind as well. CC7567 (talk) 13:31, February 23, 2013 (UTC)
Toprawa
  • The Description sections does a nice job of breaking down the crew number into specifics; i.e., 12 gunners. This should be defined by sub-bullets in the infobox too.
    • There you go.
  • Judging from what the BTS says, I'm having some problems reconciling the article's assumption that the Zahtjav was destroyed just because it says Beeli might ram the ship if necessary. Can you try explaining this for me here a little better? Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 16:30, March 5, 2013 (UTC)
    • Beeli won't back down in the fight, and wants to die in battle because of the disease. He is also reckless enough to ram the Zahtjav into the enemy. Is this clear enough in the article, or should I add a bit more context/proof as to why it is destroyed? Thanks for looking it over. 501st dogma(talk) 21:16, March 5, 2013 (UTC)
