Object Comments
 * 1) Cylka:
 * 2) * Describing the sexes as different forms in the introduction clarified the Xi'Dec diversity a bit, and I think that repeating that same information in the article proper would help as well. Also, you mentioned Stic was their homeworld in the introduction, but not in the article. I would have added it, but I was unsure as to where it would fit in the best.
 * 3) **Added "The Xi'Dec homeworld of..." to the first sentence of the Biology section, and "none of which had the same physical form" to the second sentence. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk)
 * 4) * Was it common for there to be compensation when one sex joined another family unit, or was it something that was reserved for the times when a rare sex was found?
 * 5) **GG4 only mentions compensation was common for rare sexes, yes. Do you suggest rewording something in the society section to make things clearer? &mdash;Silly Dan (talk)
 * 6) ***No, I don't think it's needed. It was just something that crossed my mind, and if nothing else was mentioned, it is better to leave as is, rather than making assumptions.
 * 7) * This isn't as much of an objection, as a consideration. It might be worthwhile to create a general article about the Xi'Dec family units.
 * 8) **Only one specific example, the Khzrry family unit, is ever described in any detail, so I'm not sure if there's enough to talk about that doesn't simply repeat the Xi'Dec article. &mdash;Silly Dan (talk)
 * 9) ***Fair enough.
 * 10) *An interesting read. Cylka  -talk- 13:00, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
 * 11) **Thanks! &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 20:51, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
 * If there's any pertinent information in Rebellion, beyond just the inclusion of their homeworld in the game, please let me know and/or add it. Likewise, if they appear in the Dark Nest Trilogy among the Killik's allies, it should be in the history section (but this possibility is just guesswork on my part.) &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 15:59, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Also, is it in The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia? &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 16:28, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
