Hello there, You might be looking for Featured_article, Please read the instructions on how to nominate, you can also sign your name by placing four tildes. May The Force Be With You! Fatguy2006 01:42, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
 * You could also put the nominated tag on the top of the article. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 03:38, 9 July 2006 (UTC)


 * I second the nomination for Anakin to be nominated for featured article status. I think at long last after all the hard work everyone has put into it, Anakin is finally ready. Anyone else agree/disagree? Impassioned Jedi 21:38, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
 * This isn't the place for it. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 22:18, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Some-sort-of-jedi Anakin Thomas 07:19, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
 * N it ain't Mr. Jedi!!
 * That was kind of pointless... Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 13:35, 31 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Its been over a month since this was nominated, and little progress has been made in support of Anakin being a Featured Article. Since I nominated him this time, I would like to withdraw his nomination. (Plus there are as much objections as people support it, ouch!) - Impassioned Jedi 19:55, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Still, it was nominated, so you really can't remove the tag. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) (Data file) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 20:54, 17 August 2006 (UTC)


 * You have a good point, that was a little bit of defeatism kicking in. I nominated it, so I should stay the course and contribute any way I can to improve the Anakin article. Thanks for giving me that needed kick in the rear end. lol Impassioned Jedi 22:30, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * No problem. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) (Data file) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 23:02, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Talents?
it needs a talents section, agreed? Jedi Dude 21:19, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Considering most other articles do, I suppose so. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 23:56, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Talent section? No problem, I'll see what I can do. Impassioned Jedi 08:10 ,13 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Looks good. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 12:00, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

i also put powers and potential section with quotes from novels... Jibers
 * Please remember to use the quote template next time, though. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 19:22, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Heyyy...someone removed my quotes from the section i created ,,,why...and what do u mean by quote template...how do i use it? i want the qoutes put up back there..... Jibers
 * If you look, they're still in the article. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 20:20, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

guys i thought he was form 5 all the time but the article said he used form 4, in every book and insider i've read it said anakin practiced form 5 in episode 2 and 3. could sombody please clarify this.

A Spirit's Age
In ROTJ, when Anakin is a Spirit, is that the 22 yr old Anakin, or is that what Anakin would had looked like at the age of 45? Double D 13:57, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
 * It's the 22-year-old Anakin. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 16:23, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

It is, O.K., but he looks like he's a gerneration old when he's a spirit. Plus I thought in the old version, since he's 45, i figure that was the age of the new version. Double D 12:55, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
 * No, they just apparently wanted to show Anakin from RotS. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 13:32, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

OK, so does that mean he's 45 even those it's the 1 from ROTS, or is he still 22? It's just that Obi-Wan's spirit appears as 57 (or 61, on the fact that he's 4 yrs older than we he died), and Yoda appears 900. So how can Anakin be 22, when he's lived 23 yrs longer than that? Double D 01:08, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
 * While it's the 22-year-old Anakin being seen, the spirit is probably still 45 years old. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 01:12, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

OK, I thing a understand it now. That examples why even those he's in his 22 yrs old appearence, he seems to look as mature as a 45 yr old man. Double D 01:54, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm just guessing, though. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 13:35, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Power and Force potential image
I was wondering what picture would look good in the "Power and Force potential" section. There seems to be some minor disagreement. I think the current one is okay, but I don't like it. However, I want to avoid an editing war. I did find some images that I think would be suitable to nominate. Of course, we can always keep it as is. Impassioned Jedi 06:29, 30th July 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep it as is. These ones here aren't as good. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 14:36, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

change the picture...its rubbish...hey admiral...how do u like the power and force potential section i wrote up? do i get any awards for doing these things...i also did the chosen 1 article in the vader page and the lightsaber training write up...i will do another 1 in 2 days...by the way i dont know how 2 use the templates like u said...all ur names are in blue in these discussions ...how do i do that..my name does not appear on what i write and i have to put it up...help...(i have 2 do waht i just said now)...jibers
 * The picture is fine, and it's going to stay. And the section is fine now. No, you don't get any awards. And I really can't explain how to use those templates here. And if you want to sign your name, put ~ ~ ~ ~ at the end of your posts, without the spaces. And these talk pages are not the place to ask questions like those. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 12:30, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

what do u mean i cant ask quesions like that? Jibers 23:16, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * This type of talk page is not the place to ask those questions. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 14:30, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Anakin's Hand
Anakin appears, as said, in his pre-fall form on Endor as a force ghost. However, can it be seen in this shot if he's wearing his glove? This would signify how prostetics carry over when someone becomes one with the force.


 * If it is, it shouldn't, I don't think so anyway...Anakin..can we officially say that Anakin went over to the dark side when his mom died? He had both arms there, thats just what I think..Some-sort-of-jedi Anakin Thomas 07:22, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Anakin didn't fall to the dark side until 19 BBY. But I don't think his prostetics carried over. Plus, don't forget that his limbs also "died"&mdash;shouldn't they have Force ghosts that reconnect to Anakin's Force ghost? ;) Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 13:35, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't think we can see enough of his hands to determine. Another interesting question is whether his scar is visible.  I can't tell in the images here.  Powers 16:05, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
 * It probably isn't. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 19:10, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
 * GL has stated that the representation of Anakin at the end of ROTJ is how Anakin looked just before he fell to the darkside. And since he had lost his arm before then we would see him with a prosphetic arm in his Force Ghost apparition. Jasca Ducato 09:17, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * or just one arm...ghosts might not be able to show the cubernetic parts Jedi Dude 09:30, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Was a glove over Force ghost Anakin's right hand at the end of RotJ? Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 22:26, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I can't tell. The images we have here don't show his hand. Jasca Ducato 11:52, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Right Eye Scar?
I personally haven't been able to see it, but after Vader is unmasked, and we see Sebastian Shaw revealed, does he have the scar that was prominent in RotS?

They did a lot of editing to him for the DVD (erasing eyebrows and such) but could they have forgotten to ADD his scar, or is it just hidden by the shadows?

Or is there something I haven't read where he uses bacta on it (or something of similar affect)? Or does it imply that Asajj Ventress really didn't slash him as well as she thought? Void In Paradise 06:48, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
 * At the time the Episode VI DVD was made, I don't think anyone was aware of the scar on his eye (I believe the Force ghost doesn't have it either). Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 11:39, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Too many images?
Okay, I don't know about anyone else, but the article as of now has too many images. This is causing many images to appear almost side-by-side. Therefore, I'm suggesting that we come up with a list of pictures to be removed. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) 22:29, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * It has a lot of images, but I don't see anything that seems side by side. I do think we should set limits about any more being added, however. - Angel Blue 451 23:21, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * You probably have a different screen resolution than me. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 00:58, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * There are a lot of images yes, but I think they all chronically detail all the essential moments in Anakin's life. I personally don't think anymore images should be added though. It has just the right amount to appear in-depth, but not cluttered. Plus think about it, Anakin is Star Wars' central character. It just seems fitting his article would include the most in depth information, pictures, etc. about such a character. But I am just one man here, what say everyone else? Impassioned Jedi 01:19, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Too many images...definitely. I picked these out to be yanked. Though other images also need to be rearranged no matter what. -- Redemption Talk [[Image:Oldrepublic.jpg|15px]] 01:23, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

EDIT: After tough deliberation, I decided to rip one more image from the article, it was the image of Vader marching on the Jedi Temple. How does the new image layout look? - Impassioned Jedi 05:00, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm fine with the removal of those two images. Also, my screen resolution is 1152 x 864. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 22:28, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * All right, I went ahead and ripped the two images, I think the article looks much more streamlined now. What say you?
 * Looks good. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) (Data file) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 14:10, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I was thinking, should we take out another image? Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 20:04, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Main image
Would this be a great Main Image? -- Jabbathehuttgartogg   00:45, 17 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Anakin's too far away in that one. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 00:48, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I prefer the current one. -- Ozzel 00:59, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * As do I, keep it as is. - Impassioned Jedi 05:52 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Current one. Jasca Ducato 11:22, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Agreed. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 16:06, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry Jabba but I like the current one better.  Jaina Solo  Goddess Stuff [[Image:JainaPurple.jpg |30px]] 16:10, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

Anakin should have lost to the powers of Count Dooku
How could Anakin possibly beat Dooku, a man who does not spas out, cry, of piss himself like Anakin. Not to mention he has a higher command of the force and is one of the best people ever trained in both lightsaber skill and force mastery, according to Yoda (just so you know Im not basing this on opinion). But obviously also, if Dooku could easily overwhelm Obi-Wan, but not Anakin, than how come Obi-Wan deafeats Anakin when he was bested by Dooku and Anakin was not? error...I am Nebulax...cyborg...no opinions allowed, human...no...that does not compute...error..I have to pull this stick out my ass...over...GET A LIFE NEBULAX, DAMN
 * Because sometimes things just don't work out the way we expect them to. But, unfortunately, this is not the proper forum for these types of discussions. -  Angel Blue 451 (Holonet)[[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] 00:07, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Is it ok to delete this? It's just a wasting space.--Darth OblivionComlink[[Image:Oldsith.png|30px]] 00:10, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
 * As much as it's wasting space, I'd say no. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 00:22, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
 * How is this wasting space? its a disussion? Its an interesting topic too unlike the rest of these discussions.
 * Anyway, despite how you guys wrongly view this discussion, Dooku would have owned Anakin if it were not for the terrible ideas in episode three made by george lucus, if it were real Anakin would have died easily.
 * Keep your opinions off of talk pages. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 00:44, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Its not an opinion, it is true and where can you talk on this site, what is the discussion page used for, Nebulax, are you even human, you block me from everything, you have no fun, why dont you talk instead of being a damn robot,
 * If you want to express your opinions, find a forum to bug. Wookieepedia is not a forum. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 11:13, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
 * HAHAHA, "Pull the stick out your ass" thats a great one, you should take his advice Nebulax, it would do you good.
 * Shut up, anon. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 19:13, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Is it me or do several of these anons sound like the the same guy?--Darth OblivionComlink[[Image:Oldsith.png|30px]] 19:26, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Most likely the same. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 19:29, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Just to end this the reason why Anakin won is because when Dooku harmed Obi Wan, he realesed his anger and became more powerful than Dooku. That's why he won. You should read the novel before asking stupid questions. Obi Wan only won because Anakin was flawed and not as wise, thus he jumped when Obi had the high ground.-Anakin Skywalker 1 13:36, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Slave to Gardulla
How much information is there on Anakin's life as Gardulla's slave. I can't find anything on it here at my desk. If there is anything on his Gardulla the Hutt slave life I'd like to know where. -- Jabbathehuttgartogg ( Rancor pit )  00:21, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure it's really covered anywhere, other than the brief mention in Phantom Menace. I could be wrong though. -  Angel Blue 451 [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]](Holonet) 00:32, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Ok, so how is what I wrote a "waste of space" and this pointless crap not a waste of space? I mean come on, why do you care? really get a life dude.
 * This is far more important. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 00:44, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I mean, really, I lose sleep over this kind of stuff man, I really want to know about Gardulla and slave boy wooo ITS SOOOO INTERESTING! (SARCASM) This would only be interesting to homos with sticks up thier ass like Nebulax and idiotic Anakin fans!
 * Im sorry, its FLEET ASSHOLE J. NEBULAX
 * Anon, enough with name calling, it is uncalled-for. -  Angel Blue 451 [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]](Holonet) 01:15, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Anon, you're the only one here without a life. Leave us alone. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 11:12, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Im sure if he was the one without a life, he would make a gay character up like Nebulax, man your all fags, Anon seems to be the best one here.
 * I'm sure if he didn't have a life he'd go on a Star Wars wiki and complain about how Anakin whined too much and should've been beaten by Dooku. Oh, wait... -- I need a name 18:15, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Can we get back on topic? Unless of curse if noone has any canon info. on Annie's Gardulla life. -- Jabbathehuttgartogg ( Rancor pit ) [[Image:Grappa's Tattoo.jpg|20px]] 18:45, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
 * First these anons need to either be banned or go get a life. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 19:13, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
 * There's some mention of Anakin's enslavement to Gardulla the Hutt in The New Essential Guide to Characters, which I believe is taken from the Episode I Adventures books.
 * Please don't post in the middle of a discussion. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 23:26, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but I didn't want to get caught up in the argument. I'm just trying to help post some information.
 * Unfortunately, it's a lot harder to find a new post if it's in the middle of a discussion. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 14:48, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Too many quotes?

 * As per the improvement drive nomination, some people have been talking that the Anakin Skywalker article has way too many quotes and needs to be cleaned up. I would have to agree with this statement. - Impassioned Jedi 22:31 10 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, I don't. There should be a vote. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 00:10, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I see there's been some re-organizing. I like the new layout of quotes actually. -Impassioned Jedi 00:48, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
 * There should still be a vote to determine if the article should include all those quotes that were removed. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 19:09, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I have to agree with Jack here. I don't see anything wrong with the quotes we had.  There should be a vote.  We can't just change something like that without a consensus. -  Angel Blue  (Holonet) 19:15, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Exactly. A vote is needed to decide this. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 22:01, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Chosen one
So is he the chosen one? At first I didnt doubt it but now that Jacen is a sith... well with Anakin being dead how can he destroy the sith? Just asking.-Anakin Skywalker 1 01:00, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
 * It was confirmed by Lucas that Anakin was the Chosen One. Jaina Solo ( Goddess Stuff ) [[Image:Jaina_sig.jpg |25px]] 01:15, 13 October 2006 (UTC)


 * I thought so. Thanks Solo.-Anakin Skywalker 1 01:46, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
 * It's in the article, though. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 11:26, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
 * You're welcome. - Jaina Solo ( Goddess Stuff ) [[Image:Jaina_sig.jpg |25px]] 11:46, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
 * You had me confused there for a second, Jaina... I was thinking, why did she say that to me? But I get it now. ;) Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 21:05, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Being dead never stopped anyone in Star Wars, did it? But I see your point, the re-emergence of the Sith detracts from the films. But Palpatine came back ages ago, so I suppose it was already done. But it doesn't really bother me, because the Sith never got close to destroying the Jedi after Anakin destroyed Palpatine. Except for this moronic Legacy series... .  .  .  .  02:53, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah.I havent read to many so now I know for sure that Plpatine came back. Guess I gotta read more.-Anakin Skywalker 1 13:29, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
 * If you want to read about how Palpatine beat death, read Dark Empire, Dark Empire II, and Empire's End. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 13:38, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Im go to the bookstore in a week.-Anakin Skywalker 1 13:43, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
 * You're welcome. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 13:48, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

A theory on Anakin's conception
I had a thought recently. I don't know if you remember this quote from Revenge of the Sith: "Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith so powerful and so wise that he could use the Force to influence the Midi-chlorians to create life."

- Supreme Chancellor Palpatine/Darth Sidious to Anakin Skywalker

It occurred to me that this could have been how Anakin was conceived. If this theory is correct, then Anakin's father was Darth Plagueis. --StarSword 9:33 24 Oct. 2006
 * Already mentioned in the article, see the Anakin's possible father section. Green Tentacle (Talk) 13:46, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Plus, it's been discussed&mdash;and disputed&mdash;a lot of times already. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 20:42, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
 * My bad. StarSword
 * Check the second talk archive... I think that's where the discussions were held. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 20:09, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
