General Items[edit]

Requests for fanon/canon verification[edit]

Fanon or canon? Deckiller 21:05, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Krettch is undoubtedly bogus. The other three are apparently legit (Wookieepedia searches found solid hits for each). --BinaryTed 21:36, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I'm going to DB Krettch. Deckiller 21:38, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The other three need a lot of work though. Jedi6 04:29, 28 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Star_wars_episode_VII:_The_Fallen_Hero. This smells like utter BS, as Lucas has been saying consistently (recently, at least) that there will never be an episode 7, and article author doesn't say anything about how he got this. --BinaryTed 18:13, 28 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The whole article is lifted from supershadow.com. No idea on whether the script is genuine, but it's probably a copyvio either way. -- wacko2 23:12, 28 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
If the source is supershadow, odds are it's a hoax. I added the hoax template to that page... if something doesn't come along to substantiate it quickly I'll probably go with prod.--BinaryTed 04:34, 1 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Article has been deleted. --BinaryTed 18:33, 1 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Apparently real, as Jeisel can be found atStar Wars.com
Okay, striking off and adding to archive. Deckiller 19:16, 4 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Apparently real, as Jeisel can be found at Star Wars.com Dark jedi requiem 19:28, 4 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Also Apparently real, as Tsui Choi can be found at [http://www.starwars.com/eu/lit/comics/news20000621.html Star Wars.com} Dark jedi requiem 19:28, 4 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Again Star Wars.com has it.

List project[edit]

Here are the finished projects in the list project so far:

Articles to be created[edit]

Dr. Mahongany, I redirected the seperate Melodies page and merged it within the List of Star Wars races. I also rephrased the article (from Ann Lewis or whatever her name is) and shortened it to my own words. Thank you for creating the article and hope you didn't mind the change :). —Mirlen 00:42, 13 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks--Dr. Mahongany 15:12, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Not very good but it's done--Dr. Mahongany 16:00, 15 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Refrain from copyvios in the future, goodly doctor. --maru (talk) contribs 02:13, 18 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Er... could someone do a similarly detailed summary for the second half of the book? I sort of forgot the rest. --maru (talk) contribs 03:11, 18 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry not very good but there are no copyvios I took info off Wookiepedia--Dr. Mahongany 19:58, 24 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina, "Doctor Death: The Tale of Dr. Evazan and Ponda Baba". He also appears in the cantina in Episode IV, where he and Ponda Baba try to get Luke into a fight. -- wacko2 14:54, 2 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
He's the guy who says "I have the death sentence in 12 systems" in the cantina ANH. --BinaryTed 17:05, 2 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
This doesn't merit its own article, it should be merged with its appropriate plot summary. Unless it's something else I'm thinking of :) Deckiller 20:43, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I dunno. It's pretty well covered in Zsinj and the Courtship of Princess Leia. But then again, we have articles on far less significant battles, so... --maru (talk) contribs 20:45, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It doesn't need its own article and anyway we are trying to get rid/merge all of these single battle articles. Jedi6 00:24, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Wookiepedia has a lengthy article on it. I thought it should have a place after noticing when I tried linking to it in the Witches of Dathomir, Zsinj, Ta'a Chume, Teneniel Djo ect. and it having a red link. Dark jedi requiem 05:06, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
There is still plenty of room in the other articles for it though. Jedi6 05:42, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
We're also not Wookieepedia. The content of Wookieepedia does not need to mirror the content of Wikipedia. – Mipadi 15:57, 28 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
True. But we'd be fools not to take advantage of their good work. --maru (talk) contribs 06:55, 2 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
PatCheng any myself worked on creating this page. Deckiller 04:47, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Finished, how does it look? Deckiller 01:01, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Created, though the plot summary is a sectionstub. Deckiller 01:53, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Done, could use a few looks though. Dark jedi requiem 20:12, 6 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
All set. Deckiller 17:03, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

List entries to be created[edit]

Articles needing sources[edit]

According to the Star Wars Databank, Grievous' homeworld is Kalee. The fictitious Kooriva claim should be removed. -- wacko2 23:31, 28 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Removed that sentence and merged the rest into List of Star Wars planets (K-L). --BinaryTed 04:37, 1 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Articles/lists to be expanded[edit]

It should probably be merged into a future "List of Imperial soldier classes" or something. Deckiller 04:14, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Articles to be moved[edit]

I am undecided. I have two books from the series, and they don't clearly indicate how the title should appear. Neither is there any consistency in title style on the web. I would lean towards moving though. -- wacko2 05:03, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Move. In terms of correctness, Star Wars: Jedi Apprentice would be better. —Mirlen 02:16, 13 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I went ahead and moved it, since a redirect will form anyway. Deckiller 03:42, 13 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It'd be more correct and proper. —Mirlen 02:18, 13 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I can't recall seeing very many references to "House of foo" in the EU, although I haven't read much in the way of Yuuzan Vong or pre-Clone Wars fiction. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 03:21, 13 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I think they are best as they are - I've never heard them mentioned in the latter form. -Xol 01:15, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I think they're fine with the current names. Deckiller 01:17, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
There appears to be no real support for this proposition, so I'm putting it in the archive. --BinaryTed 15:35, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Articles that need extensive work[edit]

Fancruft, copyvios, copyedits, point of view, and so on.

  • The following Jedi Apprentice items have copyvios and other major issues. Deckiller 14:44, 11 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • The following Jedi Apprentice items may need some cleanup. THEY ALSO NEED TO BE WIKIFIED, BECAUSE I FAILED TO WIKIFY THEM YESTERDAY (KICKS HIMSELF). Deckiller.
Wikifying now largely done. -- wacko2 05:09, 2 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I started on removing the copyvios, but we're going to need concise plot summaries. Deckiller 03:45, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I own The Evil Expiriment and the Dark Rival --Yodaiamtoo 01:03, 15 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I've removed the remaining copyvios, so all that's left to do are the plot summaries. I have "The Dangerous Rescue" and will do that one, but the other books will need to wait for people who actually own said books. -- wacko2 06:49, 18 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I own 'em all except for the special editions, and I love writing concise plot summaries, so I'll be able to help out with a few. Deckiller 14:42, 18 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I changed the merge tag on that article to point to List of Star Wars ranged weapons as that would be the correct place for it now. It looks like there's really only one person opposing the merge... --BinaryTed 14:36, 23 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Looks like the merge has been made. --BinaryTed 21:07, 24 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Unless someone else can substantially contribute to this article beyond a stub, I say clean it up and fold it into List of Star Wars Old Republic characters. --BinaryTed 21:08, 24 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Vidar Kim apparently has been merged into another article

Here some articles that have decent information but no sections. Also some of this articles need expansion or further editing. Cross out any after they have been enhanced or cross them out if you think they dont belong in the list... Tutmosis 22:05, 21 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Articles that could be enhanced[edit]

Articles that could be split[edit]

Current list/article Split into Comments
List of minor Star Wars Jedi characters List of minor Star Wars Jedi apprentices
List of minor Star Wars Jedi knights
List of minor Star Wars Jedi masters
The Jedi list is getting large; I suggest splitting it three-way into these lists. Comments? --Deckiller 21:04, 11 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
SEE DISCUSSION PAGE FOR THE FULL DISCUSSION. Deckiller 23:08, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, it seems the universe is inconsistent with the capitalization. Perhaps "apprentices" would be a neutral solution? Deckiller 03:40, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
NOTE: dab links and other wikilink issues will become a major project as we shift items around; I say in the future (after we get through all these sorts and splits and merges and whatnot) we work on a subproject just for link repair. Deckiller 01:37, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Complete. Deckiller 00:39, 15 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Just one thing, though. Wouldn't Nomi Sunrider go under 'Jedi Masters'? —Mirlen 02:00, 16 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Jedi aren't my thing, so if you see any that aren't in the right list, please move them :) Deckiller 02:01, 16 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Alright :). —Mirlen 17:06, 18 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
List of Star Wars weapons List of Star Wars melee weapons
List of Star Wars ranged weapons
List of Star Wars ship-mounted weapons
List of Star Wars heavy weapons
List of Star Wars superweapons
That page is huge, and I propose dividing them the way KOTOR 1 does. Really long lists are hard to navigate, as are alphabetically divided lists. -Xol 01:12, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. This will also allow us to merge the superweapons into thier own list, especially the smaller, near-stub ones. Deckiller 01:15, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Superweapon list created by YodaIamToo and myself. It needs work, merges/splits, and so on. Deckiller 01:27, 15 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Maru felt that two of the weapons deserved their own articles, and I agree. Anyone object to not having Sun Crusher and Galaxy Gun merged? Deckiller 02:44, 15 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
No objections here. -- wacko2 16:01, 16 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Lists have been created. Deckiller 15:06, 18 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Any List of Star Wars capital ships I created this list for the smaller stub-like ships; do you see any that should be split out of the list again or any that can be merged? Deckiller 00:53, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Chu'unthor, Dreadnaught... I can't really see any other possibilities. --maru (talk) contribs 03:17, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Star Wars (radio) Star Wars: The Radio Drama

The Empire Strikes Back: The Radio Drama Return of the Jedi: The Radio Drama (these are the actual titles of the works)

I'm somewhat new to Wiki, so correct me please. I think this should be broken into separate pieces. They are different things, they were released at different times, etc. I also think there should be a Star Wars radio drama catigory, just like there is for books, comics, etc. I have additional content for Star Wars: The Radion Drama and would like to write more for the other two. I also have images for all three. Lennon 00:30, 16 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I think it might be best to keep items as condensed as possible (splitting them just creates three semi-stubs), although a lot of albums and whatnot have their own articles. I don't see a major problem with it, I just hope there's plenty of encyclopedia-worthy info to add. Deckiller 00:36, 16 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
List of minor Star Wars characters

List of Star Wars Old Republic characters

List of Star Wars handmaidens Right now I'm looking at needing to move about 33 characters from the "master" minor list to the Old Republic list. This thing will be laughably big and will definitely need to be split into a couple more lists. This seems like the most logical one to start with as there are enough handmaidens, with enough information. (If anyone agrees, please don't create the list, I'll do it myself based off the revised version at User:BinaryTed/List of Star Wars Old Republic characters (draft)). --BinaryTed 17:07, 24 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Handmaidens, and perhaps a KOTOR character list of characters unique to KOTOR. Deckiller 17:09, 24 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Articles that could be merged[edit]

Current articles Merge into Comments
Srotac
Komari Vosa
Vergere
Halagad Ventor
Tholme
Tassida Judrelle
Tallisibeth
Corwin Shelvay
List of minor Star Wars Jedi characters This was brought up on User:The Wookieepedian's talkpage. The article is fairly small, and it could be merged into the list with little trouble. Deckiller 20:55, 11 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I added a few more Jedi. Deckiller 21:00, 11 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I merged some of the smallers ones; I recommend waiting to merge the others until we have either sustained silence or an objection. Deckiller 22:21, 11 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I'd say leave Vosa, Ventor, and Tholme alone, but merge Shelvay. --maru (talk) contribs 00:25, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Shelvay merged; others kept. Deckiller 02:06, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
8t88
Buzz droid
Chameleon droid
Octuptarra droid
Pit droid
Minor droids in Star Wars Merge proposals; these articles aren't extremely small, although we should hold a discussion on their notability and what should be kept and what should be merged (as with the others). Deckiller 22:51, 11 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep them all except for Chamelion and Octuptarra. They should be merged. --maru (talk) contribs 00:26, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, those two have been merged. Deckiller 02:10, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Envirosuit
Gravity-well projector
Repulsorlift
List of Star Wars devices Thoughts? Deckiller 22:53, 11 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I went ahead and merged the smaller ones, although the GWP may be fleshed out enough. Deckiller 02:20, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Membrosia
Cortosis
Spice (Star Wars)
List of Star Wars substances Personally, Spice may deserve its own article. Deckiller 22:56, 11 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Definitely keep Cortosis and Spice. They are common important topics. Mebrosia should definitely have been merged though. --maru (talk) contribs 00:27, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Anchorhead
Tibannopolis
List of Star Wars cities Thoughts? Deckiller 02:46, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Merge. --maru (talk) contribs 03:19, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with the merge, as it's only a second largest city on a planet. Deckiller 10:48, 16 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Sandtrooper
Scout trooper
Imperial Stormtrooper The article, like the Star Destroyer and (to a degree) the TIE Fighter article, covers all variations. I think we should merge these in so it's a full article. --Deckiller 22:01, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Nah. I think the Main article system works well for Scout trooper, at least. I'm not sure about sandtroopers. --maru (talk) contribs 22:49, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I went ahead and merged sand and kept scout. Deckiller 23:00, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Lost Twenty Jedi Stub article on a minor Star Wars thing. I think it can be easily summed up in the main Jedi article, perhaps with a subheader. Deckiller 00:03, 17 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Chir'daki
Droid Starfighter
List of Star Wars starfighters I recommend a merge. The droid Starfighter article covers both the conventional AND that Vulture droid, so it's basically a pair of 1.5-2 paragraph articles. Chir'daki isn't as notable as, say, X-Wing. Deckiller 00:13, 17 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Clone weaponry List of Star Wars ranged weapons This merge notice was recently posted. Deckiller 16:10, 23 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Sabé List of Star Wars handmaidens There needs to at least be a reference here, if not move the entire text. --BinaryTed 13:33, 25 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Agree with merge. Deckiller 16:55, 25 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Transfered to List of handmaidens. Tutmosis 01:50, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Alliance Assault Craft LAAT Just open it and you'll understand that there is no point to it. Tutmosis 22:23, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Redirected. Deckiller 22:40, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Witches of Dathomir (list) Witches of Dathomir Can easily be merged into the main witches article. Deckiller 20:50, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed, there's barely enough information right now to warrant a separate section for each clan, let alone a separate article for that information. --BinaryTed 21:47, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
All set. Deckiller 21:56, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Clone types Clone troopers I'm merging all those clone trooper (like, clone commando, clone _____) stubs into the clone trooper article. Deckiller 04:28, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
All set, for the most part. Its flow is very similar to the Stormtrooper article. Deckiller 05:31, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Categories[edit]

  • Sub Categories and Category Navigation: I think this needs to fixing, it is a little strange to navigate through devices, items, and so on. I gave vehicles its own direct subcategory to Star Wars. Deckiller 14:39, 11 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I am going to begin an extensive project to make sure all the list articles are not clumped together under "L". Deckiller 15:20, 18 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I'll also create subcategories for locations and characters. Deckiller 15:43, 18 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
All set. Deckiller 16:09, 18 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Articles for deletion[edit]
