Talk:Dark side of the Force/Legends

Shouldn't all the Star Wars Episodes be added to appearances since it is talked about and shown in them?!

Corruption of the Dark Side
I was thinking that the corruption fo the Dark Side Section should be moved above the list of Dark Side Practitioners. To me it seems like a more logical flow and other pages have all the talk at the begining with lists at the bottom. Let me know. If I don't here from anyone I'll go ahead and change it in a week or so. Redjetta 19:59, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Practitioners
I've been doing a lot of editing and I was putting in all the dark side practitioners as I thought of them. I was thinking that that could become a very long list so I'm trying to keep it to notable members of established organizations. Let me know your thoughts. Also, if anyone knows the name of the Sith Sect that recreated Darth Maul to fight Darth Vader let me know or put it in. Thanks. Josh

Its Josh again. and I'm wondering why a lot has been added to the pracitioners section? Do we really need to know that there was a red-armored sith lord. If he had a name and he was important I think so, but this isn't a list of all the Sith Lords. Redjetta 00:42, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Force cloak
Why is force cloak in the darkside powers list. As far as I know, its strictly neutral. After all, Jedi Watchmen use it the same as Sith Assassins. Varas Halcyon 15:59, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Deformity
Is there any high-canon proof that the dark side causes deformity? Anakins eyes on ep. 3 are undisputable, but Palps face is not. Are there any canon sources except KotOR that makes this statement? And even so, it does not seem to befall all dark side practitioners (Vader at the end of ep. 6, or Darth Maul).
 * Normally it seems to be on a small scale (teeth, eyes, skin), but when it is used too much in too little time it causes the user to age extremely quickly or become deformed (or both), though not always permanently (Luke, Jacen, Sidious). --Sauron18 07:45 27 June 2006 (CDT)
 * Vader looked kind of deformed in the end of RotJ to me. Anyway, as for deformity, it typically comes slowly and only after prolonged exposure to the dark side, though extreme doses accelerate the process. And there is a fair lot of canon evidence, the Nightsisters and King Ommin of Onderon to name two cases. Another would be Palpatine, whose body decayed at such a rate that he was forced to transfer his consciousness to clones. Evir Daal 07:46, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

Dark side powers
Shouldn't this list have certain caveats about where this information comes from...or even... "According to ..." etc? Some of these are on the outer fringes of canon.
 * All of the sources for these are canon, so no. If anyone wants to know where they're from, they can easily find out. -LtNOWIS 03:32, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Force Heal
Now i was wondering about force heal, I understand that its there because of the plaguis thing, but is that power ever actually called force heal? and even if it is we should probably mentinon something about plaguis around it so peole dont mix it up with the light side heal. --Darth Malice 17:38, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Existence of the Dark Side
As I recall, this is a matter of G-Level canon, stated explicitly by George Lucas. How can there be any doubt whatsoever that it exists? Jachra 21:05, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

It is speaking of those within the Star Wars universe who believe that there is no part of the Force that is inherently light or dark.
 * That works! Jachra 09:55, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Picture
The Jedi Exile page states that that image is non-canon. So, according to our contemporary rules about using only canon images, it should be replaced with something else. . - TopAce 15:45, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Agreed.  - breathesgelatin Talk 21:26, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Rewrite?
This page is in serious need of work. It is mostly just a pair of lists and some meandering paragraphs. I move that as a community we should try to make a new format for this page, and possibly completely rewrite it. Revan&#39;s Bane 19:00, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
