Citing sources : Jedi, Sith
Cleanup : Remove any In-universe information at Category:Star Wars articles that need to differentiate between fact and fiction.
Copyedit : Under Early Life. Fix grammar of "towns (plural) predominantly Protestant technical college" to "town's (possessive)..."

Other : * See the things to do page
- Notability: Articles with notability concerns, listed at WikiProject Notability

I do not see any need to tag the whole article on the sayso of one single purpose account. If there are any genuine concerns in the article they should be discussed here and dealt with individually.--Charles (talk) 10:05, 16 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The correct singular & plural

The correct singular and plural for Jedi is Jedi & Sith is Sith. ~EgyptKEW9~ <Star Wars> — Preceding unsigned comment added by EgyptKEW9 (talk • contribs) 18:24, 20 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps, but you were correcting a direct quote from a supermarket manager who wasn't aware of this. If it's a direct quote, we should leave it unaltered. --McGeddon (talk) 18:44, 20 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Source

How have we never used these sources: [1] and [2] Time magazine is about as "reliable source" as we're going to get. Niteshift36 (talk) 19:07, 20 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Does it really exist?

Does it? Just seems like a bastardised form of Taoism, with some Buddhism and Shinto thrown in for good measure.--MacRùsgail (talk) 16:18, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure what you mean by "exist", there. Some people profess to claim it as their religion, even if this is meant as a gag or as a spin-off of Taoism, and that belief has garnered enough press coverage to merit a Wikipedia article. --McGeddon (talk) 16:30, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

From what I hear, a group of students, and the student-minded (for want of a better term) put this down on the census, but is there any evidence of this really existing as a religion? I could put this down on the census, but it doesn't mean I am a member of such a religion. For all we know it was probably viral marketing by Lucas' friends.--MacRùsgail (talk) 14:43, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
