Talk:Anakin Skywalker

The Clone Wars
How much of the info from The Clone Wars TV sereis needs to be added? Just major battles and life changing events? Matt Seay (talk) 03:58, July 31, 2014 (UTC) He does appear as a the star of many of the Episodes in the series. So there is a lot more from the series that needs to be added. Matt Seay (talk) 04:18, August 2, 2014 (UTC)
 * The Layout Guide for characters would be a good place to start.-- Richterbelmont10  R2 sig.jpg( come in R2! ) 04:16, July 31, 2014 (UTC)
 * I would say this page is quite lacking. I would try to implement far more material than what is currently on the page. AV-6R7 User talk:AV-6R7 05:10, July 31, 2014 (UTC)
 * User:Brandon Rhea is currently working on it in his sandbox. --Alientraveller (talk) 07:37, July 31, 2014 (UTC)
 * If Anankin stars in a Clone Wars episode and has an adventure, then what he did should be included in the article. If Anakin only has a couple of lines of dialogue in the entire episode, then that doesn't really need to be mentionned.-- Richterbelmont10  R2 sig.jpg( come in R2! ) 17:20, July 31, 2014 (UTC)

Adding Canon info
I hope I am adding Canon info correctly. If I am making mistakes I do not mean to. Let me know if I am doing anything wrong. Matt Seay (talk) 02:02, August 3, 2014 (UTC)

Force Spirit
Did Anakin learn to be a Force Spirit when he was a Jedi/Sith because it was never told that Anakin learned te Force Spirit. Durim Shehu (talk) 10:15, August 3, 2014 (UTC)Durim Shehu


 * Anakin's selfless sacrifice allowed Yoda and Obi-Wan to preserve his spirit in the Force, thus allowing him to become a Force spirit. - Brandon Rhea (talk) 10:21, August 3, 2014 (UTC)

Info not showing
I added more info from the Clone Wars film but it won't show up in the article. Matt Seay (talk) 13:53, August 20, 2014 (UTC)
 * Well now the Malevolence info is mixed with the movie info. Matt Seay (talk) 14:29, August 20, 2014 (UTC)

My Personal Mission
While it seems to be my personal mission to add info regarding the Clone Wars TV Series to the article, I could use a little help with it as well. In the words of Jar Jar, "Any help here would be hot." Matt Seay (talk) 22:47, August 21, 2014 (UTC)

Clone Wars info
Anything before Mortis and after needs to be added. 67.140.236.248 23:05, October 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * Work on the article is underway by me. As the tagging on the article states, please leave it alone as work is being done to improve it and get up to snuff. ProfessorTofty (talk) 16:58, October 16, 2014 (UTC)

Alright then. 67.140.230.78 18:43, October 16, 2014 (UTC)

The Citadel
I don't know what it is but the information on the Citadel seems to be messing up the article when I go to add it. Skywalker2255 (talk) 21:40, October 20, 2014 (UTC)
 * Well, without being on your end, I can't really say for sure why that would be happening. I would suggest two things. First, if you're using what's known as the "Visual Editor," kill it. It only causes problems. Second, you can create a sandbox like I have and try out any testing you want to do there until you're satisfied that it's going to work. ProfessorTofty (talk) 02:57, October 22, 2014 (UTC)

Alright cool. I have been using Visual Editor and it is a pain, I have used it on other wikis and it is just terrible sometimes. I will try to kill it and use source editor, it works a lot better. Skywalker2255 (talk) 22:12, October 22, 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm guessing you're copying and pasting from a word processor? If you're using the older rich text editor, copy/pasting doesn't always work due to formatting differences. The new VisualEditor (which will replace the old rich text editor) should allow that though. If it's not, please send a report to Special:Contact/bug. Thanks! - Brandon Rhea (talk) 22:41, October 22, 2014 (UTC)

I have been typing the info in Wordpad and copying it to the article, I used visual editor to do this and it went all screwy. Skywalker2255 (talk) 10:01, October 23, 2014 (UTC)

In need of more Clone Wars
It would seem, as I have stated before that this article needs more major info from the clone wars. Notably Season five and most of the other seasons that Anakin does anything of importance in. Skywalker2255 (talk) 14:04, December 10, 2014 (UTC)
 * Missing links, sub par writing. We have to fix this. AV-6R7 User talk:AV-6R7 14:14, December 10, 2014 (UTC)

I can understand that you would want to fix the info that is already there before adding new stuff. Skywalker2255 (talk) 14:20, December 10, 2014 (UTC)

In Need of Canon Comic Information
Star Wars 2 & Darth Vader 1 information lacking. Someone needs to update History and Powers & Abilities.

Darth Vader and Anakin Skywalker
I was recently reading the Star Wars Databank and noticed that Anakin and Vader have two separate pages, illustrating the fundamental differences that exist between the two iterations of the character. I'm aware that this has been brought up in the past, but since the main canon encyclopedia considers Vader and Anakin to be separate enough to warrant individual pages, perhaps we could consider doing the same, especially considering that the Databank was used to warrant Palpatine's page being renamed "Darth Sidious". In addition, having two separate pages would be a great help in streamlining the information and providing a less clunky synopsis of the character's life and personality. -- Cyrannian  22:41, February 16, 2015 (UTC)
 * It was decided long ago by the community to have one page. It would take a huge consensus to change it, and that consensus isn't here. And from my point of view, despite how the Databank has chosen to do it (I'm unclear as to their reasoning for that), Anakin Skywalker and Darth Vader are one character and so should have one page. - Brandon Rhea (talk) 22:48, February 16, 2015 (UTC)
 * Remember, Darth Vader redeemed himself and became Anakin Skywalker once again. No reason to change the name or make a separate page. --Marcuspearl (talk) 05:34, February 18, 2015 (UTC)

Changes for Darth Vader comics sections
I have recently been doing changes to the section on Darth Vader as covered by the comic series Star Wars: Darth Vader (Marvel) and I have found that someone has reversed my edits to reintroduce the old ones which practically follow the comics' conversations to the letter. I don't know if I am the only one but I find this form of editing particularly disgusting and not at all in line with any other articles in Canon articles on Wookieepedia. Besides, as a fan and having read the series myself, I am not afraid of spoilers but I do hate spoilers which spoil every little detail of a story like this; basically, these edits are like a transcript of Vader's conversations with the other characters. I hope I am not offending anyone by saying this, least of all the writer, but I intend to continue editing this page until they are considered presentable by my standards and the standards that are apparently upheld for Wookieepedia, that is a complete retelling of the story in a Wookieepedia article but not a litteral transcript of the comic. I hope I am not the only one who feels like this --Bad&#39;Wolf (talk) 09:11, March 26, 2015 (UTC)

Marvel Comics
Just a heads up, I'll be writing and adding images for Vader's page for both the Star Wars (Marvel 2015) series, and Star Wars: Darth Vader (Marvel) series. Calvin Schubert (talk) 04:50, March 17, 2015 (UTC)

We need more info on Darth Vader 3. Jedi Knight Fett (talk) 20:25, March 30, 2015 (UTC)


 * Yup, working on it now, and Tarkin information. :) Calvin Schubert (talk)  04:09, March 31, 2015 (UTC)

Main Photo
Is there a reason the current photo is used rather than a picture of the unmasked, redeemed Anakin Skywalker from RotJ? Thanks in advance :) 104.193.153.174 01:39, May 22, 2015 (UTC)
 * This is a question that's been debated a lot over the years here. Ultimately I believe this one was chosen because it's the most representative of Anakin Skywalker as a character. This is how most people know Anakin Skywalker, and it's also how he looked (facially, at least) when we last saw him - as a ghost, rather than as the disfigured old man. Canonically, this is the true face of Anakin Skywalker. That's why George Lucas added Hayden Christensen into the end of Return of the Jedi. - Brandon Rhea (talk) 01:45, May 22, 2015 (UTC)

New Quote
I think it'd be better if this page had a new main quote, one that reflects much better on Anakin. Would anyone happen to know of any quotes that are far more positive and supportive of Anakin in canon? Cevan (talk) 20:00, May 31, 2015 (UTC)
 * I agree. I went ahead and added the one that I had been using as the main quote in my stalled rewrite of the page. - Brandon Rhea (talk) 20:41, May 31, 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks Brandon; looks great! Cevan (talk) 20:49, May 31, 2015 (UTC)

Lords of the Sith Content?
I noticed a complete lack of information in regards to the novel Lords of the Sith, which had Vader featured in a major role. Can someone who has read the novel be able to add some of the events of it into this article? HanYOLO (talk) 00:42, June 22, 2015 (UTC)


 * I'm going to add said info after I finish with adding info from Tarkin. Writing from novels is very time consuming, and sometimes very difficult. Nivlacanator (talk)  03:47, June 22, 2015 (UTC)

Much appreciated. I completely understand that new novel info is a pain to write in, especially if you use audiobooks like I do. I look forward for the content. HanYOLO (talk) 22:50, June 22, 2015 (UTC)

Partnership With Tarkin
This really irritates me. There is an entire paragraph that starts off that section that does not even mention Vader. That paragraph is all about TARKIN. It does not belong in Vader's biography. If you claim it does, it should be greatly reduced as that describe's Tarkin's biography and not Vader's. Vader only enters the story when Tarkin arrives at the Court, that is where details affecting Vader's biography come into play. --Mr. Youtube (talk) 01:01, October 11, 2015 (UTC)

Comic Info Getting Behind
I've noticed that the information in the comics has gotten far behind, as the last info seems to be when Boba Fett reports back to Vader. Also, Lords of the Sith content is missing.--Number1superdog (talk) 04:05, October 11, 2015 (UTC)

Mystery of Utapau
The mystery of Utapau section is incomplete. I have only seen the first of the story reels so I don't have all the information. Can someone help with this? Skywalker2255 (talk) 08:31, October 23, 2015 (UTC)

Images
This article could use more images. Skywalker2255 (talk) 09:29, October 24, 2015 (UTC) Yes, I am doing what i can to update this article with information but I can only do so much. Can you help with the Utapau section? Skywalker2255 (talk) 09:57, October 24, 2015 (UTC)
 * I think everyone is perfectly aware of that. However, there are relatively few really productive editors and, as you've seen, truckloads of new canon material keep getting released. --LelalMekha (talk) 09:55, October 24, 2015 (UTC)

Dark Disciple
Can anyone add the info from Dark Disciple? I do not have that book. Skywalker2255 (talk) 12:42, October 24, 2015 (UTC)

Legacy section
Should there be a section called Legacy, that explains about Kylo Ren carrying on Vader's work 30 years later? JediMaster1987 (talk) 19:37, October 24, 2015 (UTC)
 * I added the legacy section but I am wondering if it should be merged with the info of Aftermath section or is the Kylo Ren stuff far away enough to have it's own section? JediMaster1987 (talk) 18:25, October 28, 2015 (UTC)

Work in progress I take it
This article still seems a little rough around the edges. Is someone currently editing it? I would like to help but the article is locked so I can not do anything to it. JediMaster1987 (talk) 15:38, October 28, 2015 (UTC)

Relationships Section
I have noticed that this section has been removed from some articles. Should this one been removed as well? JediMaster1987 (talk) 04:19, October 30, 2015 (UTC)
