was Lessu the Republic era capital and Kala'uun the Empire era one, or what?JustinGann 07:11, 29 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * No clue, but I know there's at least one Earth country that has two capitals (the name is escaping me right now). Thanos6 07:37, 29 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * South Africa has Pretoria and Cape Town. QuentinGeorge 07:45, 29 Nov 2005 (UTC)

Is Ryloth really in Orus Sector? Orus Sector is in Inner Rim. Telccu 14:57, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

Clone Wars
Whoa, hold on. What is the source that says Ryloth secceded around the time of the Outer Rim Seiges? -- SFH 00:55, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

About the TV show, what is the source for Taa protesting the seizure and politicians getting it out of harm's way? Lucius malfoy7 20:14, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Did it Supernova?
That second pic of Ryloth has a huge white spot. Is that a glare from a camera or what? Don't mean to sound rude. --Quidon88 21:41, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

Sector?
{Need Ideas For Image!} Please, can someone talk to me?! 23:08, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
 * What sector is Ryloth in? Need answer soon!  N@M3Le$ 

Tidal-locking and Planetary Temperatures
I just watched something very interesting which gave me insight into tidal-locked planets. Now, Ryloth's scorching winds would not be just confined to the sun-baked hemisphere, but would travel across the planet. This would carry heat from the Brightlands into the Nightlands, giving the planet a relatively stable temperature.

This phenomenon was found on extra-solar bodies called "Hot-Jupiters," that were found tidal-locked. Scientists assumed at first that the difference in temperature would be drastic; one side being frozen, the other being scorched. They studied an extra-solar tidal-locked planet in infrared and found that the temperature was quite stable. Yes, the side facing the sun was very, very, very hot, but the side facing away from the sun still had heat. This was due to the winds carrying the heat across the planet's surface.

Since Ryloth has high winds, the same would apply to it, though with less intensity as the winds are facing friction from the surface, whereas the winds on the extra-solar Hot-Jupiters were not. However, there would still be considerable carry-over enough to give the Nightlands some heat, possibly enough for it to be habitable.

Just something to ponder. Trak Nar 05:05, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Clone Wars rewrote Ryloth
Well, shall we just erase this whole article then? In Liberty of Ryloth we see the planet has a day/night cycle. This invalidates everything. From the tidal lock situation, Bright Lands and Shadowlands and the traditions involved with them, heat storms and even the need for underground cities. Way to kill a cool planet, George. But disillusion aside, how to we handle this article now? Gry Sarth 03:03, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
 * We could say different parts of the planet are affected differently? Jacen Solo Jedi Master 23:06, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree, they turned an interesting planet into just a generic planet. Maybe there is a way that the old Ryloth and the new one can co-exist? For instance, Kashyyyk was shown with coasts in Episode III whereas it was always thought of just having huge trees and nothing else... but just because we never saw it before doesn't mean that the Kashyyyk with huge trees couldnt have a coastline somewhere on the planet with small nearby trees. I guess it's hard to say one is wrong without an official word on it. Freedon 19:11, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Even though they didn't show any of the EU properties other than it being a wasteland, I guess that, with a bit of strecthing, it's still possible to fit it. From what I understood, we only see different "times of day" in different locations, so it's plausible that they were moving closer and farther from the "Shadowlands". The capital seems to be closer to the Brightlands, while the first bombed village was at the habitable borders of the Shadowlands, and the resistance camp somewhere in between. Of course, they would have to be doing a hell of a lot of travelling to get to such different "time zones", but if that's what it takes to reconcile the two sources, so be it. Gry Sarth 20:00, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
 * For it to make the most sense, the events of the Clone Wars episodes should occur along the planet's terminator between day and night. --  Riffsyphon  1024 06:08, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
 * But they showed it turn from day to night and back to day.I think we should Split Articles into say "Ryloth" is George Lucas' version and "Ryloth EU" is the other one.Or maybe the EU ryloth is just a planet in the Ryloth System..Not Ryloth itself.--Fisto-Arsix 03:14, 2 April 2009 (UTC).
 * Bad idea, Fisto-Arsix. That would imply that there's two planets (or two versions). And what about the history of Ryloth that affected the TCW version, but wasn't explicitly included? I think we should just say that different parts of the planet are affected differently. Good idea, Jacen Solo Jedi Master...by User:TessyWawa
 * Near the bottom of the page. Big retcon. Doctor Kermit ( The Doctor is in ) 00:24, 27 August 2009 (UTC) http://blogs.starwars.com/danwallace/145

Changes are afoot
An immense chunk of Ryloth history has been retcinned by the Atlas, as per this:http://blogs.starwars.com/danwallace/145. I'm irritated too, but I would've helped to start fixing everything in this article already, if not for one small thing. Are there not some stories that revolve solely on the belief that the planet is tide-locked? What do we do about this one? The Doctor K. ( No I'm not really a doctor. ) 21:53, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
 * This is the current conflict that hasn't been resolved. The three-way conflict indicates three canonical sources conflict with each other, however, they're are more than three though too many to list. The Essential Atlas and TCW are notable of the changes. Geonosis and the Outer Rim explains that Ryloth is a tide-locked planet, with the hash conditions of the planet.
