Talk:Darth Bane/Legends

Hey, I saved the Darth Bane article from my site. It has a few bits and pieces that aren't in this one. I saved it here: User:Beeurd/Bane If someone else wants incorporate the missing infor into the current article that'd be great. I'd rather not do it myself because I just know I'll over-edit it and end up changing must of the article with my own stuff. Or, I could just go ahead.... ? --Beeurd 22:14, 13 May 2005 (UTC)

I'd do it - but I wrote the original article, so I'd be biased the other way. QuentinGeorge 22:55, 13 May 2005 (UTC)

lol, well lets see if anyone picks up the challenge and if not we'll try work something out. =)--Beeurd 23:27, 13 May 2005 (UTC)

Okay, I'm gonna go ahead. I'll to change as little as possible. --Beeurd 18:13, 16 May 2005 (UTC)

Why was the other picture removed? It shows Bane before the orbalisks, and, if anything, both should be in the article. QuentinGeorge 05:33, 19 May 2005 (UTC)

Who created Darth Bane?
I'd just like to knew.Thanks. where is the source for the jedi discovering bane and his order? DarthMalus
 * Believe it or not, George Lucas did. Terry Brooks, Kevin J. Anderson and Darko Macan expanded on Lucas' brief outline. QuentinGeorge 05:09, 17 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * Hmm, we need a Behind the Scenes section with this info (and more if available), I hadn't realised that myself. --beeurd 16:56, 18 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * Lucas invented the name. It's unlikely that this character matches what he had in mind.
 * Actually, Lucas gave Brooks a brief outline of the character's personality. QuentinGeorge 22:04, 18 Nov 2005 (UTC)

Who is Darth Bane's master?
seriously who is it. I think it's Darth Quordis is that right?---Jack Colton
 * It says Qordis in the article. Also, it's not Darth Qordis, just Qordis. -- SFH 02:27, 6 Dec 2005 (UTC)

Oh sorry I guess I some how skipped that paragraph. Thanks though I was having this big argument with my friend and you tottaly cleared it up. Thanks--Jack Colton

Image
I changed the main image to the picture of Bane in his armor, I thought the other one made him look like a toad.--Rodtheanimegod4ever He still looks like a to-oad... The one with the armor seems to be the better-quality image. I wanted good quality on something that might be the Featured Article--Rodtheanimegod4ever Okay, I put it back :). User:Rodtheanimegod4ever
 * And I changed it back. A picture of him with his face exposed is better than one where his face is concealed. --Imp 02:00, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Whether he looks like a toad is irrelevant. It provides a better view of his face. Plus, the other one looks like he's wearing a flower pot. QuentinGeorge 02:25, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Point taken.
 * Well, Dark Lords have never been known to be pleasing to look at. I guess Bane just doesn't photograph well. -- SFH 02:46, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
 * I put it back up there but don't fret. The one that shows his toad-face is where the other one used to be, with a cool caption, too--Rodtheanimegod4ever
 * Please don't do that again. The current one is actually a far higher quality image than the poorly cut out scan from the NEGTC. QuentinGeorge 05:57, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
 * I changed the main image because the image that was there before is oddly done and is not reflective of the character in the comics. He looks much different in the actual comic book compared to the cover image of that one issue. If anyone takes issue with what I replaced it with please discuss it here so we don't have an edit war or something. I think an agreeable solution can be reached if anyone has a problem with the one I chose.--DannyBoy7783 23:31, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I have reverted the page. Please don't replace images like that. The original was a canon image and hence I can see no reason to change it, except that you don't like it. QuentinGeorge 05:32, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I like the issue covers better, anyways; the fact that they're usually more detailed makes me think that it's a more accurate image of the things they're representing. Especially in the TOTJ comics, although that's neither here nor there. Kuralyov 05:34, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Bane 15.jpg|thumb|right|New Image]]
 * Here's DannyBoy's new image. For what it's worth, I don't think it's a very good shot of Bane, and the nameless guy in the background is a little distracting. QuentinGeorge 05:35, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

All the images here are canon quentin. It's not an issue of canon. It's an issue of what portrays the character best. That cover image makes him look strange. His face looks odd and he doesn't look like that IN the entire comic series of Jedi vs Sith. It's hard to find a good image of him in the comic that isn't obscured by text bubbles or other characters. Is it better to use that cover image or an image that actually portrays what he looked like? I say the latter. I didn't say that my image was the best which is why I said it should be discussed. I was skimming through the comics trying to find a good image. Also, the guy cowering may be distracting but it's also a testament to Bane's character. Quentin: I'm going to replace images that aren't representative of the character. If that bothers you I'm sorry but I'm trying to make the article as best as it can be. And Kuralyov: That cover image isn't anymore detailed than the comic image. While I don't disagree that cover images are usually more detailked in this case there is little difference in the level of detail besides some shading differences due to the different artists' style. Also, for anyone who is curious, I didn't cut off Bane in that image, that is how the comic panel is layed out.--DannyBoy7783 17:27, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
 * The image is growing on me the more I see it but I still would prefer one from the comic, not the comic cover. The only comic image in the article isn't that great (though it is important because it shows when he met Zannah). Perhaps the image I uploaded can be incorporated in the article elsewhere?--DannyBoy7783 17:48, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't think there's any need for another image. The article is fine. QuentinGeorge 20:00, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I would have to oppose this image as well. He might not look like a toad or a flower pot, but he does look a little like Apocalypse. -- SFH 20:18, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I think you are misunderstanding me Quentin. I'm not just asking you. I'm asking everyone. It's fine that you think the page is ok the way it is but I disagree and I'd like to have some discussion on this.--DannyBoy7783 14:17, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
 * That last comment was a little inflammatory and I apologize. No one seems to agree with me at the moment so I'll let it rest for now.--DannyBoy7783 15:50, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

Dessel
So I suppose we should move this to Dessel, no? --Imp 06:42, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
 * No. He was known as Darth Bane for most of his life and he abandoned the name Dessel. See -> Darth Zannah, Darth Millennial, Darth Maul, Darth Plagueis etc. QuentinGeorge 06:44, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
 * With Millennial, Maul, and Plaguies, we don't know their real names (though Maul's name may well have been Darth Maul). So really, those are just placeholders until&mdash;or more accurately if&mdash;we learn their real names. As for Darth Zannah...well, that was before I found this site, so I don't know what was going on there. Never the less, I think Imp has a point. I don't like moving it to Dessel anymore than the rest of you, but it is the established precedent and pattern that we have adopted. -- SFH 00:46, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Established policy is that it belongs at the most accurate version of the last name they held. Dessel abandoned his original name and became Darth Bane - unlike Thrawn, who merely used an alias. QuentinGeorge 05:27, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Then why are Grievous and the Dark Woman at Qymaen jai Sheelal and An'ya Kuro? I'm not trying to pick a fight here, Quentin. I just don't understand the differences. -- SFH 19:31, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * The Dark Woman is an alias. As for Sheelal, he should probably be at Grievous, since even the article seems to indicate he changed his name. QuentinGeorge 19:53, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

Death
How exactly did Bane die? The article doesn't even say if he died or not. What happened to him after the Jedi learned about the new Sith Lords?
 * Anything that happened to him following Jedi vs. Sith / Bane of the Sith is pretty much a mystery. --MarcK [talk] 12:48, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
