Forum:Save the Gotals

Wookieepedia &gt; WookieeProject Aliens &gt; 

So, I'm making a go at saving Gotal from losing its FA status, but it's a tall order. Basically, the article, while still well written, was made a Featured Article in another era, when we didn't require that all sources be mined for information before a topic could be considered comprehensive. I plan to do all I can for the article, but, realistically speaking, I don't think I'll be able to do the amount of work needed on my own. For that reason, I'm listing the appearances and sources for the article below, with the hopes that other Gotal-huggers can pitch in and add missing information. The Gotal article doesn't currently do this, but I'd suggest sourcing to individual page numbers/chapters/issues whenever possible.

If you decide to help out, please strike out any appearance or source you have consulted and added info from so that others can focus on those that remain. Oh, and know that the Gotals love you! ~ SavageBob 00:40, November 20, 2010 (UTC)

 * Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 40: Dueling Ambitions, Part 2
 * Star Wars: The Old Republic, Blood of the Empire Act 1: Shades of the Sith
 * I checked this one, and there's a horned alien near the end of the comic that could be a Gotal, but it has no fur, which makes me think it's more likely a Devaronian. I'm removing this one from the main Gotal article. ~ SavageBob 17:45, November 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Millennium Falcon
 * Star Wars: Darth Maul 3
 * Cloak of Deception
 * Anakin to the Rescue
 * Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter
 * Star Wars: Republic 19: Twilight, Part 1
 * Star Wars: Jango Fett
 * Noting to add, really. There's a Gotal pictured here at a bar on Coruscant, but creating an Unidentified Gotal (Twirling Twi'lek) just for him/her seems overkill in my opinion. ~ SavageBob 16:05, November 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * What info I could find added. I've asked for confirmation of Gestal's death in the adventure, as I couldn't find mention of it. ~ SavageBob 16:31, November 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Confirmed that info comes from CSWE and sourced. ~ SavageBob 06:34, November 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * Boba Fett: Maze of Deception
 * Jedi: Count Dooku
 * Star Wars: Blood Ties: A Tale of Jango and Boba Fett, Part 1
 * Star Wars: Clone Wars Adventures (video game)
 * The game won't run on a Mac, so someone else will have to do this one. :( ~ SavageBob 08:00, December 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Gotal in the crowd on Coruscant. I suppose we could do an Unidentified Gotal (Coruscant crowd), but it seems superfluous to me. ~ SavageBob 04:32, December 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Star Wars The Clone Wars Volume 1: Shipyards of Doom
 * There's a character who vaguely looks like a Gotal, but he's got large, pointed ears, which doesn't match other depictions of the species. I'm going to remove this one from the main article. ~ SavageBob 05:07, December 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * Star Wars: Republic 62: No Man's Land
 * "Spy Girls"
 * There's a Gotal who at the same party as Padme on Coruscant. It hardly seems worth an article, but if pressed, we could do Unidentified Gotal (Bezz Drexx's party) or something. ~ SavageBob 04:07, December 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * The Cestus Deception
 * Asajj Ventress is compared to a Gotal on the hunt; no new info. ~ SavageBob 03:51, December 16, 2010 (UTC)

 * Looks like there's a Gotal bum in an alley in Chapter 16 who gets scared away when Anakin and Chalco come near him. He seems extremely minor, but probably worth another "Unidentified Gotal" article, I guess. ~ SavageBob 15:44, December 1, 2010 (UTC)

 * A single Gotal thug swinging a bat, but I thought it was enough to Menkooroo 03:03, November 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * Shouldn't this be accompanied by an Unidentified Gotal thug article? --Eyrezer 07:10, November 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * That's a good question, actually. We don't seem to be very consistent on our notability-of-background-characters-in-comics policy. Specifically with regard to Legacy, all of the unidentified Sith from Broken have articles, but recent story arcs like Monster and Extremes produced scores of unidentified Sith that nobody's created articles for. Is there anything concrete in our notability policy on background characters? Menkooroo 07:00, December 22, 2010 (UTC)
