Talk:Darth Malak

Move to Alek Squinquargesimus?
Considering that's his birth name it seems that Malak's article should be moved there since virtually every Sith we list by their birth name unless it's unknown. For example, Darth Vader's article is located at Anakin Skywalker just as Darth Krayt's article links to A'Sharad Hett. So it seems reasonably that Darth Malak should redirect to Alek Squinquargesimus (as should Squint or Alek). Objections? --Niirfa-sa 16:40, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Correction about A'Sharad Hett, it appears that his article is redirected to Darth Krayt. I'd think we'd want to change that one around too but this is about Malak -> Alek. --Niirfa-sa 16:43, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Alek died as Darth Malak, so he should remain that. Drewton  http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/starwars/images/thumb/c/c0/SWTFU_WP1_1280x1024.jpg/25px-SWTFU_WP1_1280x1024.jpg 16:48, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Infobox image
The old infobox image looked much better and more realistic than the current one. The difference almost looks like as much as a difference between a real actor and a painting. Drewton  02:09, 27 April 2008 (UTC)


 * No way. Revan's hand and lightsaber are in the way. That doesn't make for a good infobox image. -  JMAS  Hey, it's me! 02:49, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Agreed (gah. Sharp pain). That and the subject is facing away from the "camera". While it's not policy that the subject be facing forward, it just awful/odd if they aren't. Way too much going on in the image anyway. Very unsuitable. -- Redemption [[Image:Redemptionusersymbol.png|25px]] (Talk) 04:03, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I also agree. The current one seems best. Grand Moff Tranner [[Image:Imperial Department of Military Research.svg|20px]] (Comlink) 14:40, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * After looking at it again, I agree. It's a good image but not right for the infobox.  Drewton  [[Image:SWTFU_WP1_1280x1024.jpg|25px]] 15:04, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * It's perfect for the infobox. I made sure of it. Unless you are ready to throw out more suggestions, you aren't in a position to really judge. -- Redemption [[Image:Redemptionusersymbol.png|25px]] (Talk) 22:59, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * No, I meant that the one I suggested wasn't right for the infobox after looking at it again, not the current one. Drewton  [[Image:SWTFU_WP1_1280x1024.jpg|25px]] 23:23, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

Image
I think that this image below would be a good one to put in the article. Maybe at the start of the "Sith apprentice" section?--Jedi Kasra 15:26, 20 April 2008 (UTC)




 * I agree. Drewton  [[Image:SWTFU_WP1_1280x1024.jpg|25px]] 17:52, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Discussion template
Now that it's been months since it was added when Malak was revealed to be Alek, should the discussion template be taken down? Drewton  02:12, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

Star Forge Duel Images
I took some screenshots from the Star Forge duel. Would any of these work for the article? I showed only the back of Revan so his face is not seen, and both his face and costume are almost completely hidden by the lightning in the third image.

 * Game machanic or not, the Star Forge robes are considered canonical. From the second gallery you posted, Drewton, I like the third and sixth images. But we still need to make it clear that Revan's appearance is customizable, and the way he looks in the pic should not be taken as the "canonical" Revan.--Jedi Kasra 16:05, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Should I take some screenshots with Revan in the Star Forge robes? Either Star Forge robes or Droma robes could be considered canonical, I think, since he has the Droma robes in the vision.  Drewton  [[Image:SWTFU_WP1_1280x1024.jpg|25px]] 19:37, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
