Oppose
 * 1) From the homework avoiding Aqua Unasi...
 * 2) * There's a few spots in here that I think are typos, but I'm not exactly sure so I didn't want to change it myself.
 * 3) **"-he was forced to keep a low profile, yet this not prevent him from staying in contact with his underworld connections"
 * 4) **"Hidalgo agreed that Skivvers made be modifying it"
 * 5) ***I blame my fat fingers :p Fixed.
 * 6) * Its a bit confusing skipping from Tay Vanis to Tiree in the intro with no explanation - I know I was confused before I looked it up. Context or explanation would be helpful :)
 * 7) **Good call. Changed all the refs to Vanis.
 * 8) * Could the infobox be expanded? Didn't it talk about his home world in the article somewhere?
 * 9) **Nope. That info is conspicuously absent. The article does mention the generic homeworld of the Ho'Din species for some context on him (in the P&T I believe), but it does not identify this as his homeworld...
 * 10) *** Ah. I see.
 * 11) *Otherwise that's all I have. Nice article :)  Aqua  Unasi  22:15, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 12) **Cheers for the review Aqua. --Eyrezer 01:42, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 13) ***Heh. If I can't write good articles, I might as well reveiew them I guess. :)  Aqua  Unasi  02:04, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 14) Toprawa:
 * 15) * The only concern I have is that this may be a bit extrapolating. Does GG4 say anything about the species' involvement with technology being unusual, or just that the planet was forbidden from having it? "...somewhat unusual for a Ho'Din since technology was forbidden on Moltok" Toprawa and Ralltiir 02:35, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 16) **It's definitely a species related thing:
 * 17) ***"The Ho'Din are master botanists who revile technology and limit its use" - The Essential Guide to Alien Species
 * 18) ***"Ho'Din ... use modern technological devices only when necessary.... Ho'Din tech specialists are unheard of." - Ulitmate Alien Anthology
 * 19) ***"While the Ho'Din will avail themselves of technology while on other worlds, it is strictly controlled on Moltok .... [Ho'Din] believe that technology is an affront to nature, and it is only acceptable on other planets, because those planets have already been substantially harmed by the actions of thoughtless animal species." - Galaxy Guide 4
 * 20) ****Of these sources, GG4 is probably the least emphatic on this, so I've modified the reference to UAA instead. --Eyrezer 01:40, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 21) *****Impressive anecdotal evidence. :) Toprawa and Ralltiir 06:34, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
