Object
 * 1) Toprawa:
 * 2) * The infobox says he's Human without any source. While's it's probably safe to assume he's Human, unless you've got something solid to back that up with, probably best to remove.
 * 3) **Fixed.
 * 4) ***Actually, it's reasonable to make the Human connection, since George Lucas seems to, albeit wryly, think so. Since the whole joke of having Fett bump his head in AOTC is due to the fact that his clone has the same problem...wouldn't it be reasonable to say that this stormtrooper is a clone?

 * 5) * I would object to the page's name capitalizing "Stormtrooper" and would otherwise recommend the page be moved to "Tall stormtrooper" if I didn't object to the name of the page itself. Conjectural title or not, what exactly makes him "tall"? He's not any taller than any of the other stormtroopers around him, and if we judge by his height comparison to C-3PO in the subsequent scene when he allows him to take Artoo down to maintenance, we can see that he's of typical stormtrooper height -- approx. 1.8 meters. Therefore, I guess my objection is that I object to calling him "tall." As a joke and a lack of anything better, this page should really be under "Stupid stormtrooper." So, unless you can cite something for his being "unusually tall," please reword these instances. Toprawa and Ralltiir 06:25, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 6) **Moved to "Tall stormtrooper", however talking with others on IRC it seems to more accurately reflect what most people think of him as. Perhaps we can discuss this?-- Goodwood [[Image:Redstarbird.svg|20px]] ( Alliance Intelligence ) 12:05, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 7) ***"Head-bumping stormtrooper" might be the most encyclopedic way to go.  Gonk  ( Gonk! ) 17:08, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 8) New objections now that the page has been moved:
 * 9) * I would still like to see a little bit added to the end of the intro detailing that he responded to the threat at the control center above 327 and encountered the droids, etc.
 * 10) * The article still refers to him several times as the "tall stormtrooper," including the infobox name field. Please reword these instances.
 * 11) * The Human part can stay with that reasoning providing you give it a new source, ideally a reference note explaining George more or less calling him a clone. Additionally, the infobox should read "Human (clone)." Toprawa and Ralltiir 18:10, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 12) I know T&R objected already regarding the article's title, but per Forum:CT Archive/Unnamed, unknown, nameless, I feel the article should be named along the lines of "Unidentified" something. Thoughts?  Greyman  http://images.wikia.com/central/images/9/9c/Jan.png ( Talk ) 21:15, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 13) *I think this is a case where being bound to that policy might actually be more damaging. This stormtrooper is one of the most famous, if not the most famous OOU, and it's one that people might actually search for. So I think simply a descriptive name, rather than the "Unidentified" paramaters work best here. Thefourdotelipsis 22:45, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 14) **Goodwood has decided to move it per that CT, but I left the redirect in place per your reasoning 4dot that someone might/probably will search for "head-bumping" along some lines. Greyman  http://images.wikia.com/central/images/9/9c/Jan.png ( Talk ) 23:13, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
