Talk:List of minor Star Wars droids

message: This is a nice article. I was considering breaking it down like this myself. Hope to see this grow over time. -- Riffsyphon1024 22:50, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

message: A thing to learn about Wikipedia. Just because an article doesnt exist for a character doesn't mean someone won't fill it out later. Also this character is very obscure, and so she doesn't need her own article, but rather a link to a larger page with a bunch of minor minor characters, and the link simply goes down the page to the spot where her entry is. Works for any character like that. -- Riffsyphon1024 06:42, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: Gender

message: R4-P17 ...During Anakin's hunt for Asajj Ventress, R4-P17 accompanied Skywalker. R4-P17 had its head ripped off by a buzz droid during the Battle of Coruscant in Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith killing her.
:Wait a minute. The R4 that accompanied Anakin to Yavin IV got blown up with his ship, so it clearly couldn't have been the same R4 unless he had an incredibly efficient repair kit. I assume the words "killing her" are either an attempt to apply gender to a droid or a misplaced reference to Ventress's (assumed) death. Lee M 01:34, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

message: For your information, the image you have for OOM-9 is, in fact, not OOM-9, but instead is an image of an unnamed commander droid which Qui-Gon cut in half when he was freeing pilots in the origional escape from Naboo. He may look the same, but there should be plenty of other images you can use that actually are of OOM-9. 192.103.41.201 01:06, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  OOM-9 

message: The introduction to this page clearly states: "It [this page] includes specific droids rather than droid types (such as protocol droids and battle droids for instance.)" Aside from having the period inside the parenthesis and the redundancy of "such as" and "for instance", which I'll fix in a moment, it's blatantly contradicted by the presence of "battle droid" on the list, as well as several other droid types - air battle droid, seeker droid, assassin droid, bio droid, grapple droid, etc. etc. etc. Either the line in the intro or those droid types need to go. Should there be a separate List of minor Star Wars droid types page? Tophtucker 23:35, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Ultimately, there should be mini sections for droid types on a main Droid (Star Wars) page, and no need for a list of droid types. — Deckiller 01:57, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

message: This article is very long. Longer in fact than some non-fiction, humanities articles on Wikipedia. Can each robot not have its own article?
:Perhaps it could be divvied up by droid type, or failing that affiliation (Republic, Empire, Freelance). --Anoma lee 07:22, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

message: One could also argue that the droid was not completely destroyed and that Anakin once again repaired R4-P17.  All that was seen was the remains of the head-plate fly off.  Who's to say that the rest of the body didn't survive? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Emperor001 (talk • contribs) 20:03, 24 May 2007

R5-J2 was an astromech droid stationed aboard the second Death Star.  He met his end when that installation was destroyed in the Battle of Endor.

message: I'm working on amalgamating this and all the other god-awful lists at :Category:Lists_of_Star_Wars_characters to remove all the ORish and arbitrary topics (i.e. what makes a character a "villain"? what if he/she later is "good"?) and repetition (e.g. Leia shows up on several of them). Once I've squished them together, they can be broken up just alphabetically like the slightly-less-crappy Star Trek character lists. I've copy-and-pasted these lists as of ~11:30EST 3 Oct -- if you make any additions to this list, I'll try to be sure to maintain them in the reworked version, but please be mindful that something might accidentally be overlooked.

message: I plan on Monday to replace the current content of List of Star Wars characters with the material at User:EEMIV/StarWarsCharacters, and then to redirect this page to that updated list. Much of the content on this page will go away -- for the better. Wikipedia is an indiscriminate collection of information, even on its list pages, and many of the entries were are truly insignificant characters. If you take exception to this plan, please say so here. --EEMIV (talk) 11:20, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
