Object
 * 1) If their robes were in use by KotOR, then they would've been established well before the New Sith Wars. Before the Old Sith Wars would be more appropriate, methinks. Other than that, excellent work. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 15:13, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) *I changed it to Old Sith Wars, but am slightly uneasy with it, if only because two sources on the Matukai said "New Sith Wars" as a time reference. The timing on these is sort of in question&mdash;let's just say that KotOR II kinda violated previous canon with a similar group, the Zeison Sha, which is why I'm leery of that dating.

 * 3) **That makes sense and I guessed that was the case. However, Tionne et al. were likely working off limited info and there's no reason to discount KotOR in this case because of other errors in the game when there isn't really one in this case. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 11:11, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
 * 4) ***Right, I agree with you there. The source I was referring to was actually Hero's Guide, which has a lot of the same info as EGTTF. At any rate, I changed it to Old Sith Wars; would you mind striking the objection if you believe it's satisfied? Cheers.

 * 5) From Graestan the Cruel:
 * 6) * "Furthermore, &hellip; As such, &hellip; In that way, &hellip;" reads a bit stilted. Perhaps the prose could be tweaked to develop a bit more flow; these quips and sentences and paper bullets of the brain aren't being utilized as much more than verbal garnish, of which I wouldn't mind some, just not in every sentence.
 * 7) **As such, I've taken another shot at it, and in that way, I've furthermore tried to improve the flow. :-P Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.svg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 19:06, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
 * 8) * Not sure if "short-singled edge blade" means something specific. If not, please change to "short, single-edged blade."
 * 9) **Mah mistake. Changed as recommended. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.svg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 19:06, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
 * 10) *Great article. Graestan ( Talk ) 17:42, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Any way we could get a screenshot of a Matukai robe or meditation band to place in the article? Cull Tremayne 04:51, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
