Object
 * Like what SavageBob said with your other nom, what are the stats for this trooper like? --''' Bonslywizard Trade Federation Symbol.jpg( Send a transmission ) 00:13, November 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Already covered.Hanzo Hasashi 17:21, November 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Story of my life
 * Stormtroopers of the GCW era were all male, I believe. It was only opened up to women later, because of dwindling recruitment.
 * Thanks, I assumed so, but did not remember whether or not that was confirmed. Hanzo Hasashi 19:54, November 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Wouldn't the armor have a different chest plate if it were a woman though, per...Legacy, I suppose. NaruHina  Talk Anakinsolo.png 15:45, November 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah and somehow that alone would probably not be sufficient evidence, as far as I understand. This is the problem with the lack of information given about characters from CCG cards alone. I really wish both ST-4402 and TK-420's card actually stated the characters' genders, so saying they are male would not be an unsourced assumption :/ Hanzo Hasashi 20:45, November 3, 2010 (UTC)

 * "Stats" is too colloquial. Try something more based in real terms, likle his abilities or something. NaruHina  Talk Anakinsolo.png 15:51, November 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Has been changed by SavageBob into statistics earlier today. Hanzo Hasashi 20:24, November 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Temporarily striking my support, since you need a source for the stormtrooper's gender. ~ SavageBob 20:47, November 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Galaxy at War stated that there were females, albeit rare. I have thus reverted my previous edit to leave open the possibility of TK-420's gender. Hanzo Hasashi 21:40, November 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * As per my objection on ST-4402 above, source that he was human since the card doesn't state, which will mean reffing the entire article. - Cavalier One FarStar Logo.jpg( Squadron channel ) 12:14, November 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * All sourced, CSWE as the source for trooper being human, made a behind the scenes note of that.
 * Same objection as in the above stormie nom --- the body sources his Humanness to the trading card, which disagrees with the sourcing in the infobox. Menkooroo 16:06, November 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Will deal with. Hanzo Hasashi 19:10, November 8, 2010 (UTC)

Comments
 * Another obscure CCG character mentioned by only one source alone. As with ST-4402, assuming TK-420 is a human, as I believe all stormtroopers during the Rebellion era were human. Hanzo Hasashi 18:38, November 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * And I think this assumption should be sourced in a way or another. –Tm_T (Talk) 09:11, November 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Not an assumption, stormtrooper corps was only open to non-human recruits after Palpatine's time. Hanzo Hasashi 20:00, November 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Then source it, please. –Tm_T (Talk) 20:41, November 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Will get to sourcing that at some point. Hanzo Hasashi 21:40, November 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Perhaps this: In the CSWE, Vol. III, p. 193, it says that "Several different sources of clones were used to create stormtroopers, especially when the Empire ramped up its military forces as Emperor Palpatine began consolidating his power. Eventually, baseline humans were conscripted or allowed to join the ranks." This seems to imply that they were either humans or human clones. ~ SavageBob 04:22, November 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks, don't really have the time to do it now, perhaps tomorrow. Hanzo Hasashi 20:45, November 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * So maybe the Legacy comics with Unidentified female stormtrooper and Jes Gistang having different armor plates could source the already-obvious fact that TK-420 has to be male, I really don't know :/ Hanzo Hasashi 21:01, November 3, 2010 (UTC)
