Why does this page exist when the Leia Organa Solo page contains most of the canon information? ShatterClub|Talk to me, internet 19:38, February 23, 2015 (UTC)

  • Leia Organa Solo is primarily for Legends information. However, her Legends information requires Episodes III-VI to make sense, so her appearances in those films are included. Leia Organa is for canon-only information. - Brandon Rhea(talk) 19:44, February 23, 2015 (UTC)
    • Exactly. You can learn more about the reasoning for the split and why canon information also appears on Legends pages at the FAQ. Look under "Canon questions." ProfessorTofty (talk) 19:50, February 23, 2015 (UTC)
      • How's the info on here canon? Not all the stuff on the page is from the movies, some is from some comics, but then, did those comics appear after the Legends/ canon split?--Fekyu 08:47, May 8, 2015 (UTC)
        • Canon includes the films, The Clone Wars AND any new media released after April 25, 2014. The comics on this page all fit in that third category. 120.144.170.253 09:06, May 8, 2015 (UTC)

Info box image[]

Is there a promotional image from The Force Awakens that we can use for an updated info box image. I can try to find one if no one has added one yet. JediMaster1987 (talk) 02:28, December 20, 2015 (UTC)

  • I have a screenshot from the Disney XD Sneak Peek of The Force Awakens that I would like to upload to see what you think about it being an updated info box image, but it is not letting me upload it. JediMaster1987 (talk) 17:05, December 20, 2015 (UTC)

Disney princesses, Leia, and her new title of "General"[]

Is Leia now "General Leia" because Disney is uncomfortable with the notion of having her "in the same room as Snow White and Cinderella"? (i.e., Disney Princesses) I suspect her status of "Princess" was inspired by Princess Aura of "Flash Gordon" fame, and she might have been thought of as an "Imperial" princess before she was revealed as Alderaanese and then a member of the Naboo royal family (?). Yes, she is an exceptional fighter, but it seems strange to go from Princess to General rather than Queen or Jedi. 73.194.9.155 03:08, December 20, 2015 (UTC)

Maybe this is Knowledge Bank material. 73.194.9.155 03:09, December 20, 2015 (UTC)

New infobox pic proposal[]

Here's a picture that appears in the newest Star Wars Insider. What do you guys think of using it in the infobox? --LelalMekha (talk) 10:15, December 24, 2015 (UTC)

  • I support this Overlordjeff (talk) 10:22, December 24, 2015 (UTC)
    • Looks good to me. Cevan IMPpress (talk) 16:26, December 24, 2015 (UTC)
      • We don't have anything else so ok. I just love that's the hairdo Carrie called a "baboon's ass". --Alientraveller (talk) 17:05, December 24, 2015 (UTC)

"Leia Organa Solo" is back[]

The paperback version of Aftermath notably contains a back-cover synopsis of Bloodline (which you can see here), and the name "Leia Organa Solo" is used. I think maybe a rename is in order. --LelalMekha (talk) 15:14, March 17, 2016 (UTC)

  • Well, she goes by just "Leia Organa" in TFA, no? Did they get divorced? Cade GalacticRepublicEmblem-Traced-TORkit Calrayn 15:16, March 17, 2016 (UTC)
    • Divorced or separated, I'm not sure.--Rakhsh (talk) 15:20, March 17, 2016 (UTC)
      • In Michael Kogge's novelization of TFA, they're still referred to as husband and wife (e.g; "Once the droids were gone, husband and wife shared a moment together, alone."), so it doesn't seem they got divorced. But yes, that question is pertinent. --LelalMekha (talk) 15:23, March 17, 2016 (UTC)
        • Interesting. TFA would seem to take precedent since it is the most recent story, and she's just Leia Organa there, but I'd imagine once the book comes out we can get some clarity. No sense asking now, of course; technically it's a book spoiler so I (rightly) wouldn't expect an answer. - Brandon Rhea(talk) 15:31, March 17, 2016 (UTC)
          • We know that Leia and Han didn't get divorced but just separated from TFA novel & junior novel. Leia could simply be using "Organa" because she is separated from Han during that period. Nevertheless, I guess we will get the definitive answer when Bloodline is released. --AnilSerifoglu (talk) 16:19, March 17, 2016 (UTC)
            • Good grief, I hope it goes back to Organa Solo. The name feels a bit empty, considering the times, without it. BrulesMy Chit Chat Page 17:17, March 17, 2016 (UTC)

Leia's age in Rebels?[]

This page mentioned that Leia was 16 during "A Princes on Lothal". This does not make sense, however, because she was born a few days after Ezra, and Ezra was 15 as of "Empire Day". Does this mean Ezra is 16 as well? Or is this page wrong? Unsigned comment by KnightoftheLight (talk • contribs).

Wedding after Jakku?[]

Currently, the article uses Lost Stars as a source to state that Han and Leia got married after the Battle of Jakku. But what is the basis for that exactly? I can't seem to recall anything like that. --LelalMekha (talk) 19:19, May 12, 2016 (UTC)

New Republic Senate[]

Was it ever mentioned anywhere in Bloodline what planet it was that Organa was representing in the Senate of the New Republic? I read the book from cover to cover but for the life of me I can't recall this ever being mentioned and if she on the Senate, presumably she was representing some planet, and there certainly wasn't an Alderaan anymore to represent. ProfessorTofty (talk) 21:14, May 18, 2016 (UTC)

Sadly not, it only mentions that she represented Alderaan in the Imperial Senate. -- Dr. Porter Resistance starbird (Talk|Contribs) 21:40, May 18, 2016 (UTC)
Thanks! I thought as much, but I just wanted to run it by just in case I had missed something. ProfessorTofty (talk) 21:51, May 18, 2016 (UTC)

Quote[]

The quote is fine as it is, but for some reason I'm thinking that, with a character as major as this, maybe it should be something more familiar to readers, like from the movies. So I propose another; I don't really mind if it is shot down, but for the sake of trying-

"That boy is our last hope."
"No. There is another."
―Obi-Wan Kenobi, on Luke Skywalker, and Yoda referring to Leia Organa[src]

First off, I'm aware my suggested dialog tag is horrible and confusing and long ("Obi-Wan Kenobi, on Luke Skywalker, and Yoda referring to Leia Organa"), so feel free to propose another; however, I would like to see your guys' opinions on this one as opposed to the quote that's up currently. I chose it because: one, like I said, it's an iconic piece of dialog from the movies, and two because I feel it refers to Leia with really the same raw potential as Luke had. As such, it makes it that her importance is played in a way that's equal. AllHailTheFirstOrder (talk) 12:59, July 16, 2016 (UTC)

PhD[]

Although is a cool statement from Lucas, there's no source that indicates it happened in both canon or legends, I found this tweet by Matt [1] that clearly indicates that its not something they considered and it was new to them, an old audio commentary its not a big source to considered especially since its more like a comparison than a real thing. I let others to consider it, but its not real in any continuity yet and using a Hollywood reporter as a "Canon/Legends source" is not accurate--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 23:00, August 6, 2017 (UTC)

Well, if that's the case, feel free to remove them, and I'll try to let my contact know about that decision. Weedle McHairybug (talk) 23:12, August 6, 2017 (UTC)

Infobox Image[]

Hello, I was just curious if anyone else would back the idea of changing the infobox image to this picture that is updated to Leia's most recent appearance in The Last Jedi.

--Benjay2345 (talk) 00:48, December 3, 2017 (UTC)

  • All for it.--ZapikCZ (talk) 01:13, December 3, 2017 (UTC)
    • I would support it, but the image is edited and this has been said before "Images should not be modified from the original source in any significant way. Removing an image from its background counts as this. Whether or not that image is reused multiple times on different backgrounds, the image should retain the background", maybe we can wait TLJ is around the corner and a new image will come out--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 01:32, December 3, 2017 (UTC)
    • Removing an images background that is present in other formats with no background does not count as there is a source of this image (such as a standee) where the background is not present. In actuality the image had no background to begin with (as is the case with most promotional photos used for standees and Fathead products) and was photoshopped on to the EW cover. Looking at it this way, the image itself has not been modified just the background which was not original to the image itself anyway. Images such as this have been allowed because of this many times on this wiki.--Benjay2345 (talk) 01:43, December 3, 2017 (UTC)
      • Final source includes a background, that's not the point. Rey image before was changed again was locked for that reason--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 01:49, December 3, 2017 (UTC)
        • It made no sense that the Rey image was locked either. The 'original source' per say of this image would be the picture itself minus the background. If Lucasfilm feels it necessary to reuse the same image without its background then the background is obviously not key to the image and thus it should be looked at as the image with no background is the 'original image.' I believe that the intent of the rule was to prevent images that have a background specific to them from being removed. In this case, though, the background is not specific to the image and it should be allowed as many others on this wiki are. The intent of the rule is what matters. --Benjay2345 (talk) 02:50, December 3, 2017 (UTC)
          • It wouldn't hurt to ask the admin who did that and ask about that again and much better if its that admin and another admin to see if the policy was misunderstood and see if its correct to change it before proceeding. Since TLJ is coming I imagine that this type of scenarios will repeat, so a clarification would be good before doing anything--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 02:56, December 3, 2017 (UTC)

Leia, Princess of Alderaan[]

Hi there. Brand new here and all that nonsense. I had one major change which I think would require more than me to edit in this page: there is no part of Leia's biography that relates back to the novel "Leia, Princess of Alderaan" by Claudia Gray. It contains some pretty large moments that define Leia's character forever so we need to have them. I can edit in certain parts but I'd need more people helping with this. So much happens in the novel and it's vital to giving readers here at Wookieepedia the perfect knowledge about Leia's life.

Thanks :) Unsigned comment by KortoVos30 (talk • contribs).

  • I agree that it should be added, guess we just haven't got round to adding it to her page yet but feel free to add the information if you want, just remember to source your additions and write in the past tense. If you need any help feel free to ask --Lewisr (talk) 15:28, June 12, 2018 (UTC)

Meet her real father's spirit and show the darkness return[]

Her father call her to go to Dagobah system, and when she arrived, she will see her real father's, Yoda's and Obi-Wan's spirits. Then she was surprised that the future vision revealed that the darkness has returned after that Anakin will give Leia hug and left. What do you think?

Fate[]

Think she might die in Star Wars: Episode IX The Rise of Skywalker, like by passing on to rest in piece rather than be killed? Zookeeper567 (talk) 00:06, December 20, 2018 (UTC)

Leia Skywalker Organa Solo[]

In the Rie of Skywalker novelization, Leia, before her death, accepts her full heritage as Leia Skywalker Organa Solo. Shouldn't her name be changed? Also, where did Leia Amidala Skywalker come from? Was she ever called like that? Dbzgtkosdh (talk) 01:33, March 19, 2020 (UTC)

  • According to the page's sources, Star Wars Character Encyclopedia: Updated and Expanded is where she's first identified by the name of "Leia Amidala Skywalker." Regarding her full name in the Rise of Skywalker, I think the article name should be moved, given the current naming policy and that's how she identifies herself. JRT2010 (talk) 02:01, March 19, 2020 (UTC)
    • I agree it should be moved to the proposed nameJkirk8907 (talk) 15:15, March 19, 2020 (UTC)
      • I also agree--Vitus InfinitusTalk 15:33, March 19, 2020 (UTC)
        • If no one else has anything to add, I think we should move forward with the move to the proposed name. JRT2010 (talk) 00:41, March 31, 2020 (UTC)
          • Wait, aren't we taking this a little too literally? It's a fleeting thought Leia has right before she dies, not a long-lasting, public change of identity. Moreover, in context, it's pretty clear that she sees herself as the conduit of three great heritages. "She was Leia Skywalker Organa Solo. As she caressed Han’s medal, she fully embraced all those inheritances. And she would pass them all to the next generation. Her Skywalker legacy would go to Rey, Organa to Poe, and she would try one last time to pass her Solo legacy to her son." She was never known as "Leia Skywalker Organa Solo" to anyone except herself, and for a few seconds at that. --Lelal Mekha The Uprising crest (Audience Room) 07:22, March 31, 2020 (UTC)
            • That's a compelling argument, but I still think we can and should move the page. I agree that it's clear she's acknowledging her three great heritages, but the line "She was Leia Skywalker Organa Solo" (written from her POV) also makes it clear that's the name she identifies herself as. It doesn't have to be a public change of identity to have the page renamed. The current naming policy states that we should use a certain name that the character personally identifies with, even if they're known by a different name in public. A prime example would be the Emperor, who was publicly known as "Sheev Palpatine" but self-identified as Darth Sidious. The fact that she called herself "Leia Skywalker Organa Solo" (even if it was just to herself) means that she self-identified as such at the end of her life. That would be sufficient to rename the page, just as Sheev Palpatine was moved to Darth Sidious for similar reasons. JRT2010 (talk) 10:10, March 31, 2020 (UTC)
              • So is the page to be moved or? --Lewisr (talk) 17:20, April 29, 2020 (UTC)
                • I am inclined agree. If she's now being referred to as Leia Skywalker Organa Solo, and if it has a canon source, it should indeed be moved per Wookieepedia's naming policy. --Erebus Chronus (talk) 17:56, April 29, 2020 (UTC)

Category[]

Can someone put her in Category:Jabba's dancers? I can't do it for some reason73.53.58.38 16:36, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

"Former Jedi"?[]

Where is she confirmed to be a former Jedi? — YakovChaimTzvi (talk) 16:37, 16 June 2021 (UTC)

  • I don't recall any source saying that, and the article doesn't support it, so I'd just go ahead and remove her from that category OOM 224 ༼༽talk༼༽ 16:43, 16 June 2021 (UTC)
    • Isn't the fact she stopped being a Jedi enough to say she was a former Jedi? Lewisr (talk) 16:45, 16 June 2021 (UTC)
      • I'd think so. VergenceScatter (talk) 17:00, 16 June 2021 (UTC)
        • Oh she did? Then yeah, that's enough to put her in that category OOM 224 ༼༽talk༼༽ 18:29, 16 June 2021 (UTC)
          • Yeah she gave up her training under Luke. Did you not watch TROS? :P Not that I blame you if you haven't.. Lewisr (talk) 18:34, 16 June 2021 (UTC)

Main Quote[]

I would like to request the main quote at the top of Leia's page to be more relevant to her role in the saga. I personally would have it either be the quotes from Obi-Wan and Yoda in Empire that refer to Leia being "another" or the conversation between Luke and Leia where Luke tells her "If I don't make it back, you're the only hope for the Alliance" and reveals her heritage. Kyle03 (talk) 20:06, 22 July 2021 (UTC)

  • I disagree. The current quote better defines her character (as in her personal values and actions), which is why it should be preferred over something that simply states her place in an insubstantial, impersonal frame in terms of the broader galactic history. OOM 224 ༼༽talk༼༽ 20:10, 22 July 2021 (UTC)
  • I concur with OOM. Additionally, both of the quotes that you suggested are said about Leia rather than by her, which isn't really desirable. VergenceScatter (talk) 23:11, 22 July 2021 (UTC)

Jedi[]

Shouldn't Leia's infobox template be changed to Jedi since at the end of her life she returned to her mantle as a Jedi and died as one, becoming immortal through the Force like other Jedi before her. Sure, she was Resistance but so was Rey yet her infobox is still that of a Jedi Kyle03 (talk) 22:17, 9 December 2022 (UTC)

Jedi Master[]

I noticed under Masters next to Luke's name, it just says Jedi Master. Shouldn't briefly be added after that since Leia left training? If this isn't an important topic, I'll gladly drop it. Unsigned comment by Galvatron X (talk • contribs).

  • I don't think it's really necessary to include in this instance Lewisr (talk) 01:12, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
