 * 3) With those two dead stormtroopers lying on the ground near him, you'd think it was a bad depicition of Chewie. SoresuMakashi ( Everything I tell you is a lie  the truth  ) 04:21, January 7, 2010 (UTC)

Object
 * 1) Skippy. It's a species, or something, right?
 * 2) * Behavior: Cliff wampas were hungry? Hungry as in naturally, always hungry? Did they have a problem digesting or something? Did they eat much less than their bodies needed? Please expand.
 * 3) **That's precisely what the source info says, and it does not elaborate. Expansion would be impossible.
 * 4) * Behavior: On a related note, you'd probably want to specify their eating behaviors (Carnivore?).
 * 5) **There is no specific information regarding this for the cliff wampa. Saying they were carnivores would be extrapolation.
 * 6) * History: The Empire was so impressed with the powerful wampa after receiving reports of how the creatures terrorized Echo Base Can you reword this sentence chronologically, to keep with the encyclopedic style? First the Empire received reports, then the Empire became impressed.
 * 7) **I don't feel a change is warranted here. The sentence is grammatically correct, reads perfectly clear, and doesn't violate any kind of encyclopedic chronological writing style. This is just a wording variation to keep the text flowing and compelling to read. If I may, I believe your non-native English language barrier may be causing your confusion.
 * 8) * BtS: Why is Ryan Kaufman listed as "Cliff Wampa Zoologist"? Did he played any important part in the design and/or programming of the creature?
 * 9) **That's probably a safe inference, but there is no further information regarding this.
 * 10) ***Having recently scanned the credits of the US N64 version of the game, I could find no reference of Ryan Kaufman as Cliff Wampa Zoologist. I am not sure that tidbit is legitimate. SinisterSamurai 09:14, January 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * 11) * BtS: If an official source refers IU to the cliff wampa as "mountain wampa", both the introduction and the body should say "The cliff wampa, also known as mountain wampa". If the reference is OOU, please specify in BtS.
 * 12) **It's not exactly an official source, per se. This game guide is written in a very informal, colloquial manner, and I would not consider "mountain wampa" to be a canonically-viable reference at all. I have tweaked the sentence to clarify its informal nature.
 * 13) * Cliff wampa is unrelated to Cliff Clavin, Rebel Major :P Skippy Farlstendoiro 07:28, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * 14) **Thanks for reviewing. Toprawa and Ralltiir 07:51, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
