There was none, please remove. Dathan was a failed strandcast that escaped Exogol. 73.47.48.81 (talk) 18:54, 14 December 2023 (UTC)

New leading image
Hi folks! I'm wondering if you would support changing the leading image on this page. The current (non-free) image is a screenshot from a film, and it is out of focus. I think we should find another non-free image that is in focus. Please see these other pages for examples of higher-quality images.

I would suggest we use this Rey image:

 * I don't think the proposed image would be suitable unless it was released directly from Lucasfilm/Disney. I'm not opposed to changing the image, but I would much rather prefer the new image to be from official material rather than an edited wallpaper with unclear and potentially sketchy copyright status.  Rey's official Star Wars Databank entry has several high quality images, of which I believe this one would be the most suitable for this article.  Keep in mind the policy on non-free content, and that non-free images are almost always rescaled to a lower resolution. -  ZLEA  T \ C 07:54, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks for replying. What do you think of this image? It appears to be a Disney image. I also found a different version of the other image I suggested, but I don't know how to tell where it was sourced from. Wafflewombat (talk) 09:13, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

Update: I'm copying a thread from the Teahouse, since it's regarding this discussion. --


 * Marchjuly, I have a question. Can I take a screenshot from a film myself and upload it? Wafflewombat (talk)

Name Change
Shouldn't this page be titled "Rey Skywalker"? 2603:300C:1305:F800:1557:DE44:3B:7DD9 (talk) 16:01, 18 June 2024 (UTC)


 * My understanding is that character pages use the name that is most commonly used in media relating to the character. Rey is referred to as "Rey" far more often than she is referred to as "Rey Skywalker". Also, as far as I know "Rey Skywalker" is not her legal name, if such a thing even exists in the Star Wars galaxy 😀 Wafflewombat (talk) 18:17, 18 June 2024 (UTC)
