Nominated for speedy deletion as repost of deleted content; previously deleted in multi-AFD alongside Holonet. However, though the topic is the same, the author is different and content is not a direct repost but different. Therefore, giving the benefit of the doubt in the service of assuming good faith by bringing here. User:Ceyockey ( talk to me ) 12:50, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

 * Comment. This article appears to use Wookieepedia's manual of style; I suspect it's a direct copy. I don't know if that has any GFDL ramifications, but it does mean that it doesn't match our manual of style.  Primarily, Wookieepedia limits real-world information to the "Behind the Scenes" section, whereas a Wikipedia article must be primarily about the real-world information.  There may be an existing Star Wars article into which this could be merged, but I haven't found one yet.  Powers T 13:22, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Response - Wookieepedia is a wikia site that also operates on GFDL; copy-and-paste of content like is fine insofar as licensing/copyright is concerned. --EEMeltonIV 18:08, 23 October 2007 (UTC)


 * It's not that simple. There are specific rules on copying the contents, because there still has to be proper citation of where it came from and who wrote it. This isn't included, so if this is a copy & paste job, it's a GDFL/Copyright violation. -- Kesh 01:12, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - One of the more interesting textures in Star Wars, but by itself has no real-world notability. Real-world information in (e.g. "Behind the Scenes") is entirely WP:OR. --EEMeltonIV 18:08, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - Regardless of its copyright status, this is a non-notable, in-universe bit of information. Used quite a bit in that universe and fandom, but no real notability outside it. The only sources are primary ones from the movies and books. If this is a copyvio/GDFL violation, it should be Speedily deleted. -- Kesh 01:12, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Game-related deletions.   --Gavin Collins 15:00, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as lack of secondary sources suggests this article is too in universe to make a useful article. --Gavin Collins 15:00, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
