[edit] January 26-27 reversion

Page was reverted for the following reasons

  • While "cultural impact" descibes most items listed, it does not apply to Mimas' similarity to the Death Star; it only applies as trivial
  • Mimas only resembles the Death Star at certain angles, namely angles that show its crater. While said point may be obvious it is still relevant.
  • Mimas' Voyager images and the time frame of their discovery are relevant to the article. Said point only takes one sentence, I don't I'm asking too much to leave it there.
  • While Mimas and Nemesis are both of astrological subject matter, that alone does not make them relevant enough to each other to be lumped into the same paragraph.

Pointing out a coincidence is not encyclopedic. Cite a source that substantiates the claims about "certain angles" and "Mimas' size, shape, and large crater" make for a "very close" resemblance. --EEMIV (talk) 06:05, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

[edit] troops and stormtroopers

607,360 troops, 30,984 stormtroopers

Thats what the article states and my question is, the difference is?--EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 21:33, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

I'm a little surprised nobody took the opportunity to mention that Imperial Stormtroopers are not the only forces fielded by the Imperial Navy, and that a station of that size would have quite a few Imperial Army regiments, along with TIE Pilots, officers, support staff, etc. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.102.186.148 (talk) 13:57, 5 August 2011 (UTC)

[edit] AT&T "logo"

Unless someone can show the mainstream press or anyone who actually matters cares enough about this image, it doesn't belong here. There are lots of pictures out there created by people with Spare Time; that is insufficient reason to include it here. More appropriate would be the ACTUAL AT&T logo, which sources cited in this article have compared to the article subject. --EEMIV (talk) 04:36, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] A prank

This edit, which I rolled back and forth, based on external information, is known to have been made as a prank, however, unless the explosion of the Death Star was white or mono-color — you can't make me look — adds a bit of flair to the article, much in the manner of the noted English romantic novelist Angel Deverell, transmogrifying the article into a work of art.

[edit] Apparently included in google android sdk a measurement for the gravity on the death star.
