  2. Until someone can give some specific sources, I'm convinced this is not genuine. —Silly Dan (talk) 05:07, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

Comments

Secrets of the Sisar Run, and several copies of Empire from 95-96 mentioned this. It is non-canon. And I will find you the proof.

I have definately read a story which talked about this within the last few months, although i havnt read Secrets of the Sisar Run it was definately in a Zahn Novel.

  • no problem, was just becasue someone reverted my vote yesterday. Wont do it again. Its just frustrating having the proof in front of you and seeing that other people know about it!! -Keith Lomas
  • Some people above wish to delete it because it is noncanon, but remember that noncanon does not equal nonarticle. On the talk page, someone claims it's on p. 47-48 of Tapani_Sector_Instant_Adventures. Can the person who made that claim provide the exact quote? Can anyone else verify this? -BaronGrackle 14:21, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
    • I can verify it's not there either. —Silly Dan (talk) 14:25, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
      • Man. The length some people go to. -BaronGrackle 14:27, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

Invalid votes

I just checked with Angela, one of the wikia staffers: CheckUser reveals that the following users are probably the same person (or, at least, used the same IP address in very close succession:

  1. User:KevinSkywalker
  2. User:Rancorkeeper
  3. User:Keith Lomas
  4. User:DinahDanks (who has not been involved in this discussion yet)
  5. "User:SuperFox"'s vote was added by KevinSkywalker while he was logged in as KevinSkywalker: there is no such user.
  6. User:Jan molby's vote is thus the only keep vote which has not come from the same user as the ones currently listed: and that user was not logged in at the time, so we have no proof of that vote. —Silly Dan (talk) 14:48, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

Verified Sources

HoloNet Waystation - Martin Wixted - July 1993

      • "at the edge of a Corellian Hyperlane, Solo could not use lightspeed, due to a large body of Gas

which was known as the Apple Barrier, A similar 12 Parsec Run feared by Glitterstim smugglers and Solo himself."

      • "the dense gaseous fog in Wild Space too dangerous to travel through." (Previous page}
      • "Similar to a black hole there were areas of the Fog that made hyperlane travel difficult.

The Apple Barrier apparently manipulated space and time. The Gas consisted of a near infinite amount of dust-like particles, which seemingly had joined together to create one immense volume" . (Page after)

      • It was a blackspot on the Corellian hyperlane, One of the most popular Trade routes in the Outer Rim

situated and partly merging under the Novor Asteroids Belt".

Tales of the Jedi: The Freedon Nadd Uprising 2: Initiates of the Sith —Unsigned comment by Keith Lomas (talk • contribs)

  • We'll be checking that. And don't delete comments from talk pages like that. —Silly Dan (talk) 14:54, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
    • Haha, this is too much... I'll send you the book if you want!~!!!!!
      • That's just too funny...you're trying to say it's in one of the ambig sources which I collect? Eh, no...I've already put absolutely everything from Challenge 74 onto this Wiki, and it's not in there. Seeing as you keep changing your sources every time you're proven wrong, I'm deleting this page. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 15:16, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
