Talk:Grievous/Legends

3 spoiler tags? --SparqMan 17:00, 5 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Two should be enough for any article, since we only have two kinds of spoiler tags. I don't want to check it out on my own, though. -- Aidje 17:08, 5 May 2005 (UTC)

Grievous's Lightsabers
What is the source of Grievous getting Foul Mondoma's, Roron corrb's, Sha'agi's, Tarr Ceiar's, and Even Piells lightsabers?--wattamb2000
 * Well I know for a fact that he took Roron Corobb's, as that's specifically mentioned in Reversal of Fortune; and it's assumed that he takes all of his victims' lightsabers. MarcK 14:20, 28 Aug 2005 (UTC)
 * and please put new comments at the BOTTOM of pages. Its rude to put them in above full pages of comment. Durnar 14:23, 28 Aug 2005 (UTC)
 * When in Reversal of Fortune? I cant find the part.--wattamb2000
 * Strip 83, and now that I look at it it actually mentions both Corobb and Moudama's sabers being taken:


 * Moudama and Corobb fought well, but Grievous was too strong. He took their lightsabers and the Chancellor and left in his ship.


 * So as I said I think it's safe to assume he takes them off of everyone he kills. MarcK 14:38, 28 Aug 2005 (UTC)


 * If Greivous has 3 dozen sabers, he must of took some from the killed jedi on geonosis. That would make 32 sabers. *Was Even slashed on the chest? How was he killed?--wattamb2000
 * Please stop asking how people died. Nobody cares. And if you are that desperate to find out in detail, go read the original sources. Durnar 14:55, 28 Aug 2005 (UTC)
 * I dont think there is a source for the replicas of Qui-Gons and Sidious's. Is there?--wattamb2000


 * Well, i do think that Grievous is quite unorthodox when it comes to strategic thinking. On Hypori, he takes out five Jedi while using two lightsabers. And on Coruscant, he uses his four-armed mode to take out TWO Jedi. Seems pretty odd to me, i would have used four sabers on Hypori if i were him. User:General Secura


 * I believe the explaination for that would be that Tartokovsky didn't know that Grievous could do the four arm thing when he did the Hypori battle for the cartoon. ALSO, what is the official source that says that Grievous killed Even Peill?  I've not found anything to support that. Joser_Kyind


 * Why does it say on the article that Ki Adi Mundi was defeated by General Grievous when he was killed by his Clones on Mygeeto? I don't understand how Grievous came into possession of his lightsaber. User:General Syrus Satirus
 * On Hypori, they battled, and Ki-Adi-Mundi lost his lightsaber before escaping. Admiral J. Nebulax 20:41, 5 Jan 2006 (UTC)


 * The main article implies that it is unclear why Grievous collects Lightsaber's but judging by his character and what he says in the Silent Hand, it appears that he's collecting them as trophies. -- TheDarkArchon 10:24, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Title
Keeping in mind our "no titles in article name" rule, should this be at Grievous? QuentinGeorge 04:16, 14 May 2005 (UTC)
 * This is a tricky one, as he is never refered to in any literature as anything but General. Hmmm. Count Dooku is the same way. I'm torn on this one, it may be the exception.--Eion 05:31, 14 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Hmmm...Dooku is referred as just "Dooku" when talking about his pre-Sith days, however. He only reclaimed the title when he left the order. QuentinGeorge 05:38, 14 May 2005 (UTC)
 * True, but I still think this may be the only exception. Though, I will wait till I see EpIII to judge.--Eion 05:44, 14 May 2005 (UTC)
 * With Grievous alone not sounding like a name, I'd say settle with the exception. I would revise Dooku, though.--Gen.d 18:58, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
 * It may be that General Grievous is a name he took on after being sealed into his metal body. In that case, "General" appears to be a part of his proper name, and should stay. The only thing that would make sense otherwise would be if a source refers to him as "Grievous" was still a full Kaleesh. --SparqMan 19:00, 20 May 2005 (UTC)


 * Coming back to this, it seems clear that this article should be titled "Grievous". --SparqMan 15:01, 28 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * I agree --Beeurd 00:23, 13 Jul 2005 (UTC)
 * I disagree. Nobody calls GG "Grievous," not even Sidious. It's part of his name. For the Lord Nyax article, will it just be "Nyax"?--Erl
 * That's different. Lord Nyax is a mythical story, General Grievous is a living being with a rank/title. And please date your comments. --beeurd 16:17, 13 Oct 2005 (UTC)
 * Actually, when the escape pods are launched in ROTS, Obi-Wan does say, "Grievous!" QuentinGeorge 00:06, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Should this be at Qymaen jai Sheelal? QuentinGeorge 00:06, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * That is kind of a mouthful. And if that's his real name, how did he come by the name of Grievous? -- SFH 00:09, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I assume it was after he was borged. Or, perhaps it was a name given to him during the wars - like "Butcher" QuentinGeorge 00:10, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

Grievous post-ROTS?
In the new expansion pack for the SW: Galaxies online game, you apparently get to fight General Grievous in a post-ROTS environment! Now, I know this might be just game-mechanics and they are never a part of official continuity, but I believe he comes with a back-story that details his revival after ROTS, complete with an artificial "gut-sack" (to replace the one that blew up on him in the movie). And backstories in games are actually a part of continuity. What do we do with this information? VT-16 11:59, 23 May 2005 (UTC) Lord Patrick 08:23, 7 Aug 2005 (UTC)
 * *groan* He's dead; let him die. I can't believe they're going to try and bring him back. argh. (I'm sure my complaints are very helpful to you.) – Aidje talk 22:44, 23 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Has he appeared yet? If not, I would wait. If he does, then I would only use material that is something you could a transcript of, such as game material, cut scenes (does SW:G even have these?), StarWars.com blurbs or other material. Just saying that he appears wouldn't really be worthwhile. --SparqMan 00:41, 24 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Come on- The guy literally burst in flame - even out of his eyes! I have serious doubts that even Darth Vader would have survived this. --Gen.d 15:42, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Will they be giving him an artificial brain-sac too, because that puppy was fried up like a meal from the cookbook of Hanibal Lector. God, I know I've seen GG fighter in ads for the SW:G expansion, but I really hope they don't put him in...--Eion 15:45, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
 * That's a pretty terrible plot-twist, considering Grievous’ vital organs were incinerated. At least Boba Fett was still mostly in one piece when he was brought back. I hope this information ends up as no more than a note in the 'Behind the Scenes' section. --Fade 15:51, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Judging from people who played this, it´s not Grievous, but a droid built after his specs. Apparently it´s called N-K Necrosis. Funny, sounds almost like necromancy, "raising the dead"... Maybe I´m just grasping at straws. ;P VT-16 19:40, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Actually, that's probably entirely intentional --Fade 21:30, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
 * After some snooping around, I can confirm the NK Necrosis. It is located in a cave on Kashyyyk, surrounded by an army of lesser droids. It uses a double-bladed red lightsaber, and seem to be completely mechanical (as opposed to Grievous). --Imperialles 21:44, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Maybe it's just a really poor rip-off then? Or a 'homage' if I'm being kind :P --Fade 09:23, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
 * In any case, Galaxies is S-canon
 * Well, if Grievous survived the shuttle crash that caused him to be a cyborg, perhaps there was a chance that his dead hulk was recovered and repaired to be completely droid, which meant all of Grievous's surviving "living" parts could have been scraped and been replaced by droid parts. Cmdr. J. Nebulax 12:19, 7 Aug 2005 (UTC)

i hope he survives and is made of something like CORTOSIS!!!

reference to blasters after his death?
i suppose that this is not the right area to post this, but i seem to remember Obi-Wan saying something like 'Uncivilised' about the blaster that he kills Grevious with, can somebody please confirm this, also, does Obi-Wan say something about the blasters used by one of the characters in ANH??? --82.35.168.60
 * In RotS Obi-Wan tosses away Grievous's blast saying "So uncivilized". I think what you might be refering to in ANH is Obi-Wan telling Luke that lightsabers are of a "more civilized age" and not as "clumsy or random as a blaster". --Beeurd
 * thanks
 * My impression (and Matthew Stover's) is that "So uncivilized" refers to Grievous

refering to the blaster


 * It also my be refering to that grievous was uncivilized and had and uncivilized death by his own blasterLt.sarge
 * Or, it might mean something completely different. Admiral J. Nebulax 20:46, 29 Nov 2005 (UTC)


 * I thought that it was about the blaster, because he appeared to be looking at it, and in ANH, he says "not as clumsy or as random as a blaster...a weapon for a more civilised age."--Xilentshadow900 22:04, 29 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * Well, remember that A New Hope was made before RotS here. There is always a chance, but it doesn't have to mean Kenobi referred to Grievous's blaster, even though he said that line in RotS. Admiral J. Nebulax 22:20, 29 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * Yeah, it just seems like the kind of line Lucas would throw in to bind the movies together. Its like a hobby of his.--Xilentshadow900 22:27, 29 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * That's true. Admiral J. Nebulax 22:41, 29 Nov 2005 (UTC)

Wheel Bike
This article needs to include a link to his Tsmeu-6 personal wheel bike.
 * Wrong, I have some comfimed evedince from the revenge of the sith dvd that the name of grievous's wheel bike is called "the dread speeder".Although this might have been in early production and could have been changed to the Tsmeu-6Lt.sarge

Age
Do we have a source for Grievous' birthyear of 60 BBY? I haven't seen anything official on GG's age - Kwenn
 * I seem to recall reading something stating he was in his 40s when he became Grevious... Although I forget where I read this, I shall scour my resources searching for something to back this up. --Beeurd 00:22, 13 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Coughing
Is it ever stated explicitly why he coughs? From what I've read elsewhere, it seems to me that it is merely assumed that he got the cough thanks to Mace's force-crush at the end of Clone Wars. Granted, I haven't read Labyrinth of Evil, so maybe it's explained there. Kuralyov 00:48, 13 Jul 2005 (UTC)
 * He didn't wheeze or cough before Mace crushed his chest plate in, so I imagine its safe to assume that as the cause. --65.96.185.195 01:32, 13 Jul 2005 (UTC)
 * He didn't cought before the crushing, and he started coughing a lot as soon as it did happen, even for the brief time in the cartoon after it happened. – Aidje talk 05:09, 13 Jul 2005 (UTC)
 * Somebody decided he should cough in the movie to prove to dumb movie audiences that he's not a robot. --24.141.193.190 02:28, 22 Jul 2005 (UTC)
 * In Deep Forest (one of the Visionaries stories) Greivous does indeed have a hacking cough. Rob Coleman says that the coughing is due to his organic body not taking well to the cyborg shell. Mace's "crush" simply aggravated an existing problem. Tam 14:19, 22 Jul 2005 (UTC)

his chest plates were force pushed by mace

Chestplate Confusion
I believe that Grievous gets his chestplate crushed by Mace in both Labyrinth of Evil and Obsession... so which one do we put down? --Demented Smiloid 14:07, 22 Jul 2005 (UTC)
 * And don't forget Clone Wars. :-) – Aidje talk 15:33, 22 Jul 2005 (UTC)
 * Just say Mace did it, and don't specify where. QuentinGeorge 23:40, 22 Jul 2005 (UTC)
 * Definately wasn't on Coruscant like Clone Wars says, it would contradict the movie which shows him undamaged. Obsession is the best explanation for it.  --Lowkey

The First Vader?
In fact, according to Dark Lord, the selfsame droids which reconstructed the dying frame of Darth Vader into the cyborg we know and love to hate also reconstructed Grievous a decade before. This also locks down when Grievous suffered his shuttle crash to 29 BBY. Gothymog 20:51, 2 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * Did you ever think that Grievous could be like a Vader before Vader.I'm mean like look at the facts; burtally injurned in a freak accident, half cyborg, wants revenge on the jedi, it all makes sence!Purplesaber 42
 * I believe the cyborg-life-support-after-brutal-injury parallel is intentional, if that's what you're asking. – Aidje talk 19:23, 24 Jul 2005 (UTC)
 * Yes, It's like Lucas accually wants us to beleve that,but I don't think alot of people reconize it.I think you have to watch Clone Wars to figure it out.Purplesaber 42
 * Does it specifically say "a decade before" or does it say "around a decade before"? Cmdr. J. Nebulax 20:57, 2 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * I cannot recall the exact wording as I do not possess the book, merely have read it. I'm pretty sure it says the former, though someone with the book will have to check. Gothymog 13:58, 3 Nov 2005 (UTC)

C-i-C
Like Asajj Ventress, Sev'rance Tann was not the C-i-C for CIS forces either. --SparqMan 22:26, 7 Aug 2005 (UTC)
 * Yes, she was. The New Essential Chronology states that she held more sway with Dooku than Grievous did until her death. It doesn't make sense if she held more sway than Dooku, but Grievous had a higher rank. Therefore, she was the first Supreme Commander of the CIS. Please don't reedit the article again. If you have a problem with it, it's too bad, it's a fact.
 * There is a difference between sway and rank. There are tons of instances in the real world of non-governmental officials holding more sway with Heads of State than actual members of their Cabinets or staff. -- SFH 20:34, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't believe there is a source where it says that Tann wasn't CiC. All of the sources (besides maybe Visionaries, which has iffy canon status) only say that Grievous was CiC after Tann's death, since Tann was invented first. Also exlain in SWGB why Dooku refers to her as his finest General
 * Exactly. He doesn't refer to her as Commander in Chief; only General, whereas Grievous has been specifically named as the Supreme Commander - Kwenn 20:40, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
 * And Dooku may have been allowing his biases to sink in. Tann was Force-sensitive, Grievous was not. Tann looked Human, Grievous did not. Tann was fully organic, Grievous was not. There are reasons that Dooku would have prefered Tann to Grievous, but the fact remains that General Grievous was the Supreme Commander of the Droid Armies, not Sev'rance Tan. -- SFH 20:45, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Apparently, someone doesn't know that. Admiral J. Nebulax 21:42, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Then why did Asajj Ventress and Durge fight with Grievous over the CiC position in the Clone Wars cartoons? That suggest that there was a position to be filled, one made empty by Tann's death. You even have her as THE top military officer in the CIS on her page.
 * That event did not occur in the cartoons at any stage. QuentinGeorge 04:43, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I might be thinking of a comic or something, but Iread about that somewhere.
 * It's in the Databank on Grievous and Ventress' articles. -- SFH 05:17, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Grievous being CiC of the Droid Armies doesn't perhaps mena as much when one consideres there was the Confederate Navy (assuredly a different unit) as well as organic forces. Kuralyov 05:22, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, perhaps Tann was the Supreme Commander of the Confederate Navy. But, there's no proof for that. But the point is, Grievous was the one-and-only Supreme Commander of the Droid Armies. Admiral J. Nebulax 12:31, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

First name and more
Confirmed by Abel G. Pena himself on TFN, Grievous's first name will be revealed in Star Wars Insider 84 in his article The Story of General Grievous. Also included will be his origins as an organic Kaleesh, the war with the Huks, and the blood transfusion from Sifo-Dyas. :D -- Riffsyphon1024 19:26, 25 Aug 2005 (UTC)
 * Wow, that's great! The history of Greivous to be revealed. That will be one article I can't afford to miss. Cmdr. J. Nebulax 21:10, 25 Aug 2005 (UTC)
 * The new Insider is out. Can anyone reveal Grievous' real name? - Kwenn
 * Wasn't in this issue. Hopefully it will be in 85. Cmdr. J. Nebulax 18:15, 25 Sep 2005 (UTC)

its General Grievous Skaker It wasn't in 84? Disappointing... - Angel Blue 451 15:10, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * Please read SuperShadow, my poor anon. And when are we going to learn that name? -- SFH 15:10, 4 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * Perhaps we'll find out the real full name in the next Insider, or the next, etc. Cmdr. J. Nebulax 21:15, 4 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * Like I said above, hopefully it will be in another issue. Admiral J. Nebulax 15:14, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * It is confirmed to be in 86, along with an article about mandalorian culture written by Karen traviss. An issue we can't miss!--Xilentshadow900 16:08, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * Finally, an end to Grievous Skaker. Finally, Grievous' first name and his history will be revealed! Indeed, we cannot miss this. Admiral J. Nebulax 17:39, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * As long as it isn't "Albert", I'll be happy. - Angel Blue 451 17:46, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * Why would it be? That was only a suggestion for Palpatine's name. Admiral J. Nebulax 17:50, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * Eh, just trying to make a joke. - Angel Blue 451 18:03, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * I know. ;) Admiral J. Nebulax 18:12, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * Heh. Seriously though, I hope that they do include it in 86. - Angel Blue 451 18:25, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * Well, if it's actually been confirmed, it should be in it. Admiral J. Nebulax 18:27, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * I know, I just hope they don't delay it again. - Angel Blue 451 18:32, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * Maybe Abel G. Pena ment Insider 86 instead of Insider 84. Admiral J. Nebulax 18:35, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * Nah, he just kept on getting pushed back by KAren Traviss's stuff. Now they're in a mag together. Check his blog on the subject. It has many edits on it.--Xilentshadow900 19:00, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * Okay, then. At least it's coming out. Admiral J. Nebulax 19:36, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * 'Tis possible, I suppose. - Angel Blue 451 18:51, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)

Weird
Yeah um, maybe its my computer or something but the text of this page have been replaced with links and stuff and words overlapping other words. But its just this page not others.
 * It's the same with mine, too, and probally the same for everyone else. What could be doing this? How can we fix it? Cmdr. J. Nebulax 22:53, 25 Aug 2005 (UTC)
 * It was edited by some misunderstood person pretending to be Wikipedia:User:Linuxbeak. &mdash; Silly Dan  22:57, 25 Aug 2005 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the info. It's a lot better now. Cmdr. J. Nebulax 12:24, 26 Aug 2005 (UTC)

wattamb2000
 * How many times do we have to tell you, wattamb2000, Greivous DOES NOT KILL Shaak Ti! The official death of Shaak Ti is in the Jedi Temple. She got slaughtered by Anakin Skywalker!! Cmdr. J. Nebulax 13:33, 5 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * Actually, Matt Wood, who attended the 2005 SFX Convention in Toronto, made a statement that might indicate this scene being restored to the film. Or he could have been joking. (Most likely) VT-16 15:25, 5 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * It has to be a joke, even though it was planned that way, because the Episode III Visual Dictionary clearly states that Shaak Ti fell victim to Vader's fury in the Temple. Cmdr. J. Nebulax 16:05, 5 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * Look at the Wikipedia article on Shaak Ti. It states Grievous killed her!--wattamb2000
 * Wikipedia is by no means an authoritative source. Any piece of information has been added by a fallible user, just as is the case here&mdash;so saying "Wikipedia says X" is no better an argument than "Wookieepedia says X"; in essence, it's about the weakest argument you could give. – Aidje talk 18:15, 5 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * Plus, the EPISODE III VISUAL DICTIONARY IS A MORE REALIABLE SOURCE!!! Wattamb, if you're so desparate in making it seem you're right, which you aren't, how do we know that you didn't write that little bit yourself!!!! Cmdr. J. Nebulax 19:02, 5 Sep 2005 (UTC)

i have a picture of grievous killing her i don't know how to post them she was defeted by greivous twice
 * The scene was cut, it's no longer canon. --beeurd 13:47, 9 Nov 2005 (UTC)

6 BBY?
That date is incorrect. 6 BBY was during the rule of the Galactic Empire, so how could Dooku, Durge, and Grievous all be around after their deaths? -- Riffsyphon1024 18:30, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * Sorry, my mistake. I meant to write 6 ABoG and got confused. The correct date, from Clone Wars Adventures: Volume 3 is 22 BBY. --Master Starkeiller 21:10, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Grievous Resurrected?
It says that Grievous was resurrected after the Galactic Civil War. What are the sources for this? Unit121 21:11, 10 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * Galaxies, but it's not canon. And even if it is, that wasn't Grievous. It was a droid called N-K "Necrosis" that seemed to use Grievous' shell. --Master Starkeiller 21:20, 10 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * Removed the nonsense text. Cmdr. J. Nebulax 22:50, 10 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * Abel Pena is covering this in an upcovering article. :) Tam 13:38, 18 Oct 2005 (UTC)

His Voice
I noticed in Episode III, Grievous had one voice, but then in the Clone Wars, he had another voice. In the sega, did Grievous aways have that voice from Episode III, or did his voice change when Mace crushed his body at the end of Clone Wars Chapter 25?
 * John Di Maggio did his voice in his first appearance, at the episode with the battle of Hypori. In the second season, Richard McGonagle provided his voice. Matthew Wood did the movie voice. It's all their in the article. -- SFH 23:59, 17 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * Seeing as how Obi-Wan, Anakin, Padme and everyone else also have different voices, its hardly an issue. QuentinGeorge 01:01, 18 Sep 2005 (UTC)

But in some ways (not all ways), even after the fact there's diferent actors, Obi-Wan talks the same way and sound like Ewan McGregor, Padme talks like Natalie, the same thing with Yoda, Palpatine, Dooku, Qui-Gon, Mace and the Clones, but John Di Maggio and Richard McGonagle don't sound like Matthew Wood, they don't even talk in the weird accent that Matt use in Episode III.
 * Wood's inclusion in the film was a last-minute sorta affair, Tartakovsky simply didn't know what Grievous would sound like, and guessed. Tam 13:37, 18 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Corpse
"The corpse of General Grievous lay on the Utapau landing platform with a charred ring around it, and even the Utapaun birds of prey would not touch his remains." Nice wording (almost Tolkienesque) but could we get a source on that? -- SFH 23:40, 11 Oct 2005 (UTC)
 * I also thought that was a bit... strange. It doesn't really add anything to the article, so I say remove the "...and the Utapaun birds of prey would not touch his remains" part and add what's left to the previous paragraph. Cmdr. J. Nebulax 23:43, 11 Oct 2005 (UTC)
 * I think its intent was to show that Grievous had become so evil that even nature itself wouldn't take him. However, there wasn't much left of his body left to begin with, nor was there after his death (that has to have been the most violent death I have ever seen in a Star Wars film). -- SFH 00:17, 12 Oct 2005 (UTC)
 * The line comes from the Revenge of the Sith novel. As Obi-Wan makes his way to Grievous' fighter, he notices that his corpse is still there and that not even the birds can stomach him. TIEPilot051999 00:41, 26 Oct 2005 (UTC)
 * Okay, that's an official source. I'll add it back in. -- SFH 00:48, 26 Oct 2005 (UTC)
 * No problem. I just finished reading it the other day. TIEPilot051999

Audiocast Not In-Universe
Should the audiocast section of the article really be considered In-Universe? In the audiocast himself he's saying Halloween phrases like "Trick or Treat" (since the purpose of the audiocast is to play it with your Halloween dioramas outside your door on Halloween). It also doesn't mention anything about the Holonet. This part should be added to Behind the Scenes.

Done and doneTIEPilot051999


 * "You fool! A real villain has no use for candy!" :) Erik Pflueger 06:34, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Okay... Admiral J. Nebulax 20:49, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
 * You see, Jack, that was from the Halloween audiocast, and I thought it was funny and uh... uhhh... Yeah. Erik Pflueger 21:14, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
 * That's what I thought. Admiral J. Nebulax 21:15, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

Images
This article is far too image-heavy, and too light on actual text. Can we get this sorted? QuentinGeorge 04:56, 4 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * How about that? I think the problem was mainly that the images were bunched up together. I spread them out and got rid of two of them. --beeurd 13:57, 9 Nov 2005 (UTC)

i like the new pictures. they need to stay Seriously though... ELEVEN images? ELEVEN? Spast, that's only two shy of Luke friggin' Skywalker, whose article is literally over TWICE the length of ol' Qymaen's here. Eight of Grievous's images are practically touching each other. And I spot four-- right off the bat, without needing to think twice about it-- that are completely redundant. I don't think there's enough text here to justify this much imagery. Take that for what it's worth. SM-716 05:11, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

Grievous and Terak similarities?
Has anyone ever noticed the striking similarity of Grievous to Terak? I mean, similar voices, similar ways of death (both were burned alive from the inside due ro an attack. Adamwankenobi 13:44, 9 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * They are similar. But was that needed, really? Admiral J. Nebulax 21:21, 8 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * No, but I thought I might point out (for those who have never noticed) the strange similarities between the two. :) General Kenobi 08:41, 5 Jan 2006 (UTC)

 * What's wrong with it? It's not any less visible than the other pics... --Master Starkeiller 13:25, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * I can see two lightsabers, but the rest of the image is completely dark. Admiral J. Nebulax 13:27, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * I can see it clearly in both my computers, just checked it in the other one. Your screen might need some tweaking, I dunnow... Anyone else who can't see it? --Master Starkeiller 13:29, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * Never mind; it must have been a glare. Admiral J. Nebulax 13:30, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)

 * No problem. --Master Starkeiller 22:11, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * I know I might be asking too many questions, but could you make it a tad bit lighter? It seems darker all of a sudden. Admiral J. Nebulax 22:37, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * That's the lightest I can go. --Master Starkeiller 12:03, 10 Dec 2005 (UTC)

 * No, it's actually worse. It's too bright and stands out in the article as an anomaly. --Master Starkeiller 13:36, 11 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * I agree; it is too bright. Admiral J. Nebulax 14:08, 11 Dec 2005 (UTC)

The Kalee
Does anybody know if theres' pictures of the Kaleesh without masks? I'm curious about what General Grievous looks like without his cybernetic body or his warlord mask.......-Stoll 7234

No such pictures exist, to my knowledge. - Angel Blue 451 04:30, 10 Dec 2005 (UTC)

Grievous Resurrected...
Hey,why can't I make it where grievous can be resurrected? I mean,There isn't no law against fanon,so why can't I add something without you people deleting it,huh? -Stoll 7234

Sifo-Dyas Blood Transfusion
Grievous getting a transfusion of blood from a Jedi would've made him Force-sensitive (which we know to be untrue). The information comes from a source that is widely acknowledged as day dreaming with pictures (Visionaries). Should it really be in the Biography section? I say it should be relegated to the Behind the Scenes part of the article. --AdmThrawn 01:35, 16 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * Just because he got Sifo-Dyas' blood doesn't mean he became Force-sensitive. However, having only a rudimentary knowledge of the biology of the humans in the GFFA, I cannot say anything for certain. -- SFH 01:39, 16 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * Where does it say that force sensativity is held in the blood cells?--DannyBoy7783 01:41, 16 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * To my knowledge, everything in Visionaries except Old Wounds is considered to be canon. And if getting Force-sensitivity were as easy as a blood transfusion, I think we'd be seeing a lot more make-your-own-Jedi running around.  - Lord Hydronium 01:44, 16 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * First off, an reptilian alien getting a blood transfusion from a human is ridiculous. Secondly, getting a blood transfusion from a Jedi would make you Force-sensitive. Midi-chlorians. Plus, that is excatly what the comic is suggesting. That the blood transfusion is what is responsible for Grievous' abilities (not his cyborg body). --AdmThrawn 01:45, 16 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * Go read the article on midichlorians AdmThrawn, it's in all the cells, not just blood cells. We don't know how force sensative Syfo-Dias was to begin with but it is likely that his blood alone wouldn't provide enough midichrlorians for Grievous to become force sensative. Also, the connection that his abilities are from the blood is vague at best. I have Visionaries and that story barely makes that connection. They simply say they are giving him the blood. They never say why. You are assuming.--DannyBoy7783 01:52, 16 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * AdmThrawn, considering Humans don't give blood to aliens in real-life, we can't tell what would happen in Star Wars. Perhaps Grievous's blood is compatable with Human blood. Admiral J. Nebulax 12:52, 16 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * Either way, Abel G. is going to explain it in his new Grievous story. It said so on his blog, so this is not worth arguing over.--Xilentshadow900 14:12, 16 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * Until then, however, we argue. ;) Admiral J. Nebulax 14:45, 16 Jan 2006 (UTC)

N-K Necrosis and Grievous's Canonical Death
Say, was the Droid "Necrosis" really a droid ? If he is, then why is he listed under Cyborgs? Also about Grievous, I heard on Wikipedia that SuperShadow stated on his website that Grievous was executed by Darth Vader during Palpatine's purge while we can clearly see Obi-Wan Kenobi killed Grievous in the Episode III movie...So,Who is Supershadow really trying to fool ? -Stoll7234
 * SuperShadow is an infamous BSer. As a rule of thumb, don't believe ANYTHING he says, unless it's also stated by a reliable official source. JimRaynor55 01:52, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

Real Name

 * Grievous' original name was Qymaen jai Sheelal. See here. QuentinGeorge 00:01, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Okay, I think I got all the redirects done...That was more redirects than I ever thought possible. Oh, Imperialles...WAIT FOR CONSENSUS NEXT TIME. -- SFH 00:22, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh, consensus. Right. Sorry! :P --Imp 00:22, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Ah, it's ok. If Thrawn is at the Chiss' real name, this should be too. QuentinGeorge 00:24, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Wow. I never thought his full name would be so... different. Of course, "Grievous" isn't exactly an actual name... Admiral J. Nebulax 01:17, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * They had to make sure it was completely different from whatever SuperShadow was calling him, I suppose. 8) &mdash; Silly Dan 01:19, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Good point. Admiral J. Nebulax 01:20, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Should the infobox title say "Qymaen jai Sheelal", then? Or going with the Thrawn pattern, "Qymaen jai Sheelal (Grievous)"? - Lord Hydronium 02:55, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * His transformation is pretty extensive, more so than Anakin's tranformation into Vader... -LtNOWIS 05:24, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Looks like someone went ahead and changed it. Does anyone else think "Grievous" should be at least mentioned there, like "Qymaen jai Sheelal, aka Grievous"?  I can picture someone arriving here, seeing the infobox first and thinking, "Wait, isn't that a picture of Grievous"?  Granted, it is in the first sentence, but the infobox title is even more prominent. - Lord Hydronium 06:07, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I agree. QuentinGeorge 06:19, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I put it in as "Qymaen jai Sheelal, the feared General Grievous". If someone wants to reword it, they can, but I just wanted you to know it's in there. -- SFH 06:23, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I changed it to display as "Qymaen jai Sheelal (General Grievous)". Adamwankenobi 06:24, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Can we replace that awful CG infobox picture with the pre-borg picture from Eyes of Revolution? --Imp 09:08, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Sounds good. Adamwankenobi 19:39, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Agreed. Admiral J. Nebulax 20:10, 26 January 2006 (UTC)


 * The split between Darth Vader and Anakin Skywalker is not only a function of the vast difference between the two, but also a product of the sheer amount of information available on the two. Sheelal/Grievous wouldn't warrant a split, IMO. --SparqMan 00:40, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm still of the opinion that we should merge those two, but oh well. QuentinGeorge 00:41, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Quote from "Clone Wars"
"Jedi. you are surrounded, your armies decimated. Make peace with the force now, for this is your final hour. But know that I, General Grievous, am not completely without mercy. I will grant you a warrior's death. Prepare."

- General Grievous to Ki-Adi Mundi and several other Jedi during the Battle of Hypori

Can we add this in somehow? Kalas Grengar 09:57, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
 * In the Clone Wars section, perhaps. Admiral J. Nebulax 20:38, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
 * The first appearance section would be nice. I'll also add it to Quote:Grievous. -- SFH 20:41, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I guess that would work, too. Admiral J. Nebulax 20:43, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

The Huk
" The Huks are actually aliens that you've seen before in a Star Wars film, it's just that nobody knew they were referred to as Huks." - Joe Corroney. Source: http://boards.theforce.net/literature/b10003/21238198/p14/?337 Rune Haako 18:39, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
 * So why is this here? Admiral J. Nebulax 19:14, 28 January 2006 (UTC)


 * They were Grievous' enemy. Rune Haako 19:18, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, but that is talking about the Huks. There is a separate article for that. Admiral J. Nebulax 19:20, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

SuperShadow stuff
If Qymaen jai Sheelal is his real name, why does the bio say "Grievous Shakar"? Me smells Supershadow fans a-lurking!
 * Reverted it. Stupid anons don't give up. Admiral J. Nebulax 21:12, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

List
I propose changing the "Lightsabers" list to a list of Jedi Kills in general. I've got Unknown Soldier in front of me and I'd like to add info from that list, but it doesn't specifically address whose sabers he took. Anyone have a problem with that? CooperTFN 01:52, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
 * I have no problem with that. -- SFH 02:01, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Enough for me. CooperTFN 02:02, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Is there a source for him taking all the sabers from Geonosis? That seems incredibly unlikely, and US certainly doesn't help its case. CooperTFN 02:05, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
 * It's in LoE. And I also agree. Admiral J. Nebulax 20:40, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Can we make it "Jedi Kills and Lightsabers appropriated"? Since then we can add that he had Darth Zannah's... QuentinGeorge 08:49, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Good idea. Admiral J. Nebulax 22:23, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Thelightsaber
What info on this page came from thelightsaber.com? Because not only is that site not official, it's also well-known for posting dubious amounts of fanon (e.g. Dara Jade and Darth Nemesis) - Kwenn 20:48, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
 * At the bottom of the Behind the Scenes info. But the site really isn't official, and I apologize for putting it back in. And just a note: I didn't put it in in the first place. Admiral J. Nebulax 00:19, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Title (again)
As has been done on the wikipedia page, why is this article not titled Grievous or General Grievous? Isn't the policy supposed to be on the most recent name? Are we interpreting General Grievous as an alias or as a real name that he took on, such as Vader, Zannah, and Lumpawaroo? Cull Tremayne 04:37, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
 * We're treating this the same we have Thrawn. QuentinGeorge 04:39, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
 * The real name should be the title, but there are exceptions. Admiral J. Nebulax 12:43, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
 * How are we treating it as Thrawn? Mitth'raw'nuruodo is the full name of Thrawn. How is Qymaen jai Sheelal like that? Why is Grievous the exception? Shouldn't he follow the same rules as Darth Bane? Cull Tremayne 00:37, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Qymaen jai Sheelal is Grievous's full name. Mitth'raw'nuruodo is Thrawn's. Both articles are titled as such.--DannyBoy7783 00:41, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * What? Qymaen jai Sheelal is not Grievous' full name. It is his name from his life before his disfigurement and time as a cyborg. That is what I was trying to convey. Grievous is not a nickname of Qymaen's as far as I know. It is his assumed name after becoming a cyborg. If this is the case, then shouldn't Darth Bane's article be titled Dessel? Cull Tremayne 00:58, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * It should be at Dessel. --Imp 01:05, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Lumiya too? To quote Sparqman

''I thought that when faced with two semi-equal names, the convention was to go with the one the character used last, similar to using the last held rank/title. She began as Shira Brie, but became Lumiya. Is that incorrect?'' Just replace the Lumiya parts with the Bane or Grievous scenario. But then again maybe he's mistaken? Cull Tremayne 04:32, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * In that case, Lumiya and Darth Bane are correct, since that is their "latest" name. This page, however, in that case should be at Grievous (since he abandoned his original name). QuentinGeorge 05:25, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * I guess it all boils down to the question. Is Grievous an alias, or did Qymaen actually change his name? QuentinGeorge 05:26, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * In The Eyes of Revolution, Qymaen cuts down his fake Ivoshra and yells, I AM NOT A DROID! I AM GENERAL GRIEVOUS! If this isn't forsaking his former identity, I don't know what is. Cull Tremayne 05:35, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Then the page should be at Grievous, if we're sticking to our policy....and our article seems to indicate that, since it explicitly says he abandoned his name BEFORE he became a cyborg. QuentinGeorge 05:37, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * So is it good to change it? Is this consensus? Or perhaps we should wait a bit longer for further opinion? Cull Tremayne 05:46, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Let's hold off for a while. Our policy seems all over the place (based on comments here, and at Darth Bane's article), so I'd like to get an explicity statement of the consensus so everyone understands. QuentinGeorge 05:49, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Cool Beans. (What does that even mean?) Sure wish we had a consensus policy. Cull Tremayne 05:55, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * No. Articles should be at their original name, no matter what, unless a character's original name is unknown. Darth Bane and Lumiya should redirect to the proper name. Admiral J. Nebulax 21:36, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
