 * 1) * As Tranner said, it is not categorised (I hereby declare war on American spelling).
 * 2) **Categorized.
 * 3) ***Grrrr!
 * 4) * Should we be using 'he' or 'they'? Ja'Gatcha, which has also been nommed, has opted for the latter, despite having only a single body. The 'unlikely allies' and P&T quotes show that they were referred to as separate, maybe the article should do the same.
 * 5) **It's only one person, so he is more appropriate. "They" is used to refer to the heads/personalities, but "he" is used to refer to the body, so to speak. "He" is used in CSWE, too.
 * 6) ***Fair enough.
 * 7) * He did not partake in violence, seeking to avoid confrontation, and his two arms were far thinner than the two controlled by the left head. Don't you mean the right head? This also occurs in two more instances the right head requested that his peer do as they were told and The left head was the antithesis of his brother.

 * 8) **It's his left head, from his point of view, not from ours. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 11:31, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
 * 9) **Strange I din't notice that. SoresuMakashi ( Everything I tell you is a lie ) 02:13, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
 * 10) From Graestan the Mighty:
 * 11) * "being a peaceful, gentle being" is a bit awkward.
 * 12) **I altered it a bit; is that to your liking?
 * 13) * "who was alone in a clearing, after cleansing it of any other sentient presence" – I'm pretty sure I catch your drift, but nonetheless I believe this should be worded in a more straightforward fashion.
 * 14) **Reworded and changed it a bit to read more from Twohead's perspective.
 * 15) * I believe the term "brother" should be dropped for clarity; the physiological information is not available.
 * 16) **Fair point; addressed.
 * 17) * Graestan ( Talk ) 01:43, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
 * 18) **Thank you for the review. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 11:47, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * 19) Cylka:
 * 20) * The infobox needs to be sourced correctly.
 * 21) **Nevermind. I learn something new everyday. ;-) Cylka  -talk- 02:32, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
 * 22) * Since you described the physical appearance of the hair on the right head, it might be a good idea to do the same for the left head, just for clarity.
 * 23) **Good point, done.
 * 24) * Plo Koon calls him a monster, although it's impossible to say whether he means it in a physical sense or because he is a criminal. It might be worth mentioning that he is seen as a monster by some.
 * 25) **Well, Koon's calling him a monster was made in ignorance, so I wouldn't give it too much weight. I've added a small mention of it in the P&T.
 * 26) * Although I'm not quite sure that this is vital, you could fit in that he has three-fingered hands, and that his cybernetic arm was made the same way. I only point this out since he is a totally unique species/sentient and I think all minor details could be added.
 * 27) **Added in a little mention after explaining about his prosthetic arm.
 * 28) * It might be worth mentioning in the Bts that he may have only two toes, since a toe-less boot is seen when Xamus/Sumax is climbing out of the hole, but another panel shows him as having "full" boots. It may be some type of misdirection or mistake on the part of the artists.
 * 29) **Where are the full boots? The only proper view of the feet I can see is when he gets Force pushed and when he's climbing out of the hole, and they both have only two toes. The very last panel doesn't show the two toes but I figure that's just a lack of detail more than anything.
 * 30) ***Fair enough. I was looking at the last panel of the story and it was just something that I noticed. It does seem to be a lack of detail. Cylka  -talk- 15:04, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
 * 31) *I'm impressed with how much information you pulled out of a short comic. It certainly taught me a lot about looking at the details. Cylka  <font color=#00A693>-talk- 02:17, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
 * 32) **Thank you. :-) Thanks for the review, and sorry I'm so late addressing the objections. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 12:46, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
 * If only we knew which head was Xamus and which was Sumax. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 21:54, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
 * No categories?! Grand Moff Tranner [[Image:Imperial Department of Military Research.svg|20px]] (Comlink) 02:52, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Whoops. Now categorized. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 11:31, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
