Picture
Where did the old picture go? Why was it deleted? We had permission to use from the photographer. It was a good pic. -Dr Haggis - Talk 15:36, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * There are some 501st pictures on Wikipedia. For example:

You can see the image at starwars.wikia.com/wiki/File:501st Legion Badlands Garrison.JPG which says it's copyrighted which may be why it was removed from Wikipedia. 501st Legion booth at WonderCon 2010.JPG

Good guys organisation
Since the 501st are for all the imperial baddies from the movies, is there an organisation for the good guys? Perhaps cross link their articles? 196.30.31.182 (talk) 11:35, 29 July 2010 (UTC)


 * It's usually called the Rebel Legion, but there is so much colaboration, that difference between us is academic. HoundofBaskersville (talk) 05:01, 4 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Here's their article: Rebel Legion

5 continents not 6
When I look at the Map showing all of the 501st Legion units around the globe, I don't see any in Africa nor Antarctica, that leaves only 5 continents The Legion can have units on, it may be that units are active on the last 2 continents but lives on the the other 5. 80.165.171.245 (talk) 21:28, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
 * With their white armor, the stormtroopers in Antarctica are impossible to see until it's too late. Jonathunder (talk) 16:35, 16 January 2014 (UTC)

A few years back there was a stormtrooper (I believe) on Antarctica which could have been the reason for the six continents. However she or he might not be there anymore but there is now a garrison in South Africa which makes it 6 continents again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.137.113.150 (talk) 06:42, 24 April 2015 (UTC)

logo/patch
What language is the upper part of the logo/patch, and what does it say ? would be good to add that info somewhere in the article. thx — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gizziiusa (talk • contribs) 21:11, 10 November 2015 (UTC)

It reads "VADER'S FIST" and is written in Aurebesh, which is the writing system used for the "Basic Language" in the Star Wars universe. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aurebesh#Writing 204.124.67.250 (talk) 16:19, 12 November 2015 (UTC)

501?
The group is a "501(c)(7) non-profit organization". Is there a connection with the name? Kortoso (talk) 17:43, 28 October 2016 (UTC)


 * No, it's pure coincidence. See  Canterbury Tail   talk  19:31, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
