The new and improved Empire

• Mission to Empress Teta
  • Digitize comic images
  • Infobox-exclusive information
  • 3997 BBY cannot properly be referenced to TOTJ
  • Poor linking throughout
  • I strongly suspect nothing actually formally names this thing the "Mission to Empress Teta," which means the article should avoid referring to it with that formal, capitalized name. Because battle articles from this era did a suspect job of verifying name authenticity, I would like to request verification for this article title from a source.
  • There is certainly enough room in the article body to add another image or two, particularly in the Prelude section. "The mission" section could also be subsectioned to allow for additional images and quotes.
  • Paragraph breaks would be nice in the intro, the last "The mission" paragraph, and probably the Aftermath.
  • BTS is unsourced. Publication date(s) for stories would be nice.
  • Format StarWars.com Databank entry name correctly. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 21:27, August 14, 2019 (UTC)
• Second Battle of Empress Teta
  • Firstly, I question why this article needs to be the "Second Battle," since we don't have a "First Battle of Empress Teta" article
    • Even if we were to keep this article title, there's no reason to capitalize "Battle" since it's conjectural
  • There's no explicit sequential battle connection for this and the thing from that Polyhedron article. That's just speculation and should be removed.
  • Underlinking throughout
  • Digitize comic images
  • Paragraph break in the Aftermath section would probably allow for another image there
  • BTS is unsourced. Publication date(s) for stories would be nice.
  • Format StarWars.com Databank entry name correctly. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 21:27, August 14, 2019 (UTC)
• Battle of Kemplex IX
  • Digitize comic images
  • Infobox-exclusive information
  • Underlinking throughout. Fix redirect.
  • Two-speaker quotes get Quote template, not Dialogue
  • Paragraph breaks would be nice in the intro, last Prelude paragraph, and last BTS paragraph
  • This sentence should be referenced by individual portion rather than just tacking two refs onto the end: "...thus using several weapons aboard Sadow's battleship to successfully destroy all of the Republic defenses and personnel in the immediate area.[6][4]"
  • BTS is unsourced. Publication date(s) for stories would be nice.
  • Format StarWars.com Databank entry names correctly. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 21:27, August 14, 2019 (UTC)
• Battle of Coruscant (Great Sith War)
  • Digitize comic images
  • Infobox/intro-exclusive information
  • Underlinking throughout. Fix redlink.
  • I question what "medium" casualties in the infobox is supposed to be mean exactly. How do you even quantify that?
  • Because battle articles from this era did a suspect job of verifying name authenticity, I would like to request verification for this article title from a source.
  • There is enough room for at least one more image in the Aftermath section.
  • BTS is unsourced. Publication date(s) for stories would be nice.
  • Format StarWars.com Databank entry name correctly. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 21:27, August 14, 2019 (UTC)
• Vara Nreem
  • 4000 BBY cannot be sourced to "A Tale from the Dark Side"
  • Underlinking
  • Infobox-exclusive information
  • The Biography would do better to be subsectioned in two. This allows for another quote if available.
  • The BTS really doesn't need two separate references. Utilizing {{Shortstory}} will allow for a single reference note to cover everything. That template also needs to be used in the Appearances and remainder of the referencing. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 21:27, August 14, 2019 (UTC)
• Orley Vanicus
  • Digitize comic images
  • Infobox-exclusive information
  • Underlinking
  • Neither of the BBY dates are referenced correctly
  • There are four redlinks
  • Definitely looks like it could hold an Equipment section
  • I'm not sure if the intro needs to be quite that big. The second into paragraph definitely looks like it could use a paragraph break, which would make the intro pretty long at three paragraphs.
  • BTS is unsourced. Publication date(s) for stories would be nice. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 18:04, August 15, 2019 (UTC)
• Sidrona
  • Digitize comic images
  • BBY date note referenced correctly
  • Infobox-exclusive information
  • Missing backup links
  • Underlinking
  • Two-speaker quotes get Quote template, not Dialogue
  • Looks like it could hold an Equipment section
  • Punctuate image captions correctly
  • BTS is unsourced. Publication date(s) for stories would be nice.
  • Format StarWars.com Databank entry name correctly. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 18:04, August 15, 2019 (UTC)
• Teta
  • Infobox-exclusive information
  • Bold title in intro should be a redirect to the article
  • Underlinking. Redirects.
  • Not all BBY dates are referenced correctly
  • Could definitely use an Equipment section
  • BTS unsourced. Publication date(s) for stories would be nice. The entire second BTS paragraph looks like it could be removed.
  • Apply citation templates where applicable.
  • Articles must be referenced by individual comic issue, not story arc. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 18:04, August 15, 2019 (UTC)
• Adas
  • The infobox image crop kind of sucks. That image is being cropped from a larger picture, which I think would look a lot better.
  • Underlinking. Check for instances of linking to disambig pages.
  • Not sure the into really needs to be three paragraphs in length, which is pretty big relative to the rest of the Biography.
  • I'm not sure any of the BBY dates being gleaned from "Evil Never Dies" are explicitly mentioned as such in that article. Rather, I believe the article speaks in more general terms like "3,000 years before the Galactic Republic," which means these BBY dates needs to be translated and explained in a ref note. Likewise, the BBY date being sourced to "Korriban: Planet of Lost Souls" does not work as such, and that needs to be referenced by individual article, anyways.
  • I don't really understand why what is apparently the only other image of Adas is being relegated to the BTS. Certainly this is more relevant than the other two non-Adas images in the Biography.
  • The first subsection title is pretty bland. Something more exciting than just "King" would be nice.
  • The first and second "Legacy" paragraphs, the P/T paragraph, and the BTS paragraph all look like strong candidates for paragraph breaks
  • Could use an Equipment section
  • BTS unsourced. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 18:04, August 15, 2019 (UTC)
• Battle of Khar Delba
  • Article title requires confirmation
  • The battle succession in the infobox referenced to Crosscurrent should be removed, as there is no explicit connection between these two events
  • Underlinking. Redirect.
  • Infobox-exclusive information
  • Article needs to be formatted in accordance with the Layout Guide's structure for battle articles
  • Images should be arranged better to fit within their respective sections. Right now they are placed crudely, running into section headers, etc., which is a relic of Monobook
  • BTS unsourced. More specific dates for comic issues would be nice. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 18:04, August 15, 2019 (UTC)

Can we fix these discussion items with the power of flex tape?
