Object
 * 1) Skippy finds this to be very intersting
 * 2) * Intro: The limit of fifty systems per sector continued to be ignored. Please give some more context. Who gave that limit? Was it a legal limitation, an administrative suggestion, under which jurisdiction...? Who was supposed to enforce that limit? If it "continued" to be ignored, when had it been ignored before? (I know it's expanded in the article, but it's confusing in the intro)
 * 3) **Tweaked the wording to include some context, but all that information is either irrelevant for an introduction or currently unknown because it has not been established in canon.
 * 4) * Proem: Following the creation of the Galactic Republic, When? Please give a date; and I also suggest to give dates to the Expansionist Era.
 * 5) **We don't have an actual date for the founding of the Galactic Republic or the beginning of the Expansionist era, which may or may not be simultaneous. That era ends when the Great Manifest Period starts. I've tweaked the wording to cram a date in there.
 * 6) * Proem: what they viewed as "opressive" and "tyrannical" government I think the inverted commas are not needed, as you already say "what they viewed as".
 * 7) **Removed&hellip;
 * 8) * Commerce: with the hope of easing its struggle.[6] Additionally, it was hoped that the a new hyperspace route You use "hope" twice in a row; I suggest a synonym. Besides: "it was hoped that". Who hopes? Besides: "the a new". The or a? Choose.
 * 9) **Fixed.
 * 10) ***Just one pending: "It was hoped that". Who hoped? --Skippy Farlstendoiro 07:17, March 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * 11) ****Okay. I tweaked it again. &mdash; Fiolli  {Alpheridies University ComNet} 22:32, March 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * 12) * Commerce: Is BoSS a federal agency of the Republic, some private interest or what?
 * 13) **Republic agency. Clarified.
 * 14) * Impact: The Twenty Wonders of the Galaxy are linked twice, under "historical landmarks" and "twenty galactic wonders". Please remove any one of the links.
 * 15) **Done. Thanks, Skippy. &mdash; Fiolli  {Alpheridies University ComNet} 21:34, March 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * 16) *Skippy Farlstendoiro 09:58, March 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * 17) Toprawa:
 * 18) * Why not link to the referenced years in the infobox? 16,347 BTC, for example.
 * 19) **Talked about on IRC.
 * 20) * Is there a specific reason why he is referred to as "Wasaki" and not "von Wasaki"? "Wasaki was frozen in carbonite"
 * 21) **Yes, that is how it is listed in Challenge 66, according to those who helped me.
 * 22) * Does the source literally present this as speculative regarding the BoSS? "although possibly a little bit later" Toprawa and Ralltiir 00:04, March 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * 23) **Not as outright IU speculation, but as another possible date. I've tweaked the wording. &mdash; Fiolli  {Alpheridies University ComNet} 04:19, March 20, 2010 (UTC)
