In TV section at "Fun with Nubs," there is a date error. KBHWKFANATIC (talk) 08:15, 1 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Corrected now 🙂 MadGuy7023 (talk) 08:19, 1 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

this Star Wars in other media article feels out of place. Why not merge it here? It's not long enough to deserve its own article, imo Lililolol (talk) 21:57, 15 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Article trimming. Wikipedia needs pages to be short enough for easier reading management. KBHWKFANATIC (talk) 03:23, 3 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Under https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars#Films the "forwarding" when hovering over the Film Attack of the Clones seems to have an error; instead of showcasing the beginning of the Wiki article, it only shows what seems like random emojis and as far as i can tell it does it on every "forwarding" to that specific Movie.

Im not well versed with Editing etc on wikipedia, so im sorry if this is the wrong place for it, i just noticed it on this page.

Sadly, it wont let me add a Screenshot of the error. Wikiaccforthings (talk) 21:40, 6 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

There was some vandalism there that was very quickly reverted [1] here that you're seeing. I don't know how the hover tool pulls data, but I would imagine it will refresh itself soon enough with the correct information. Darkage7_[Talk] 21:57, 6 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Do you think we can add a hyperlink when is says "Fictional universe" in the lead and "Star Wars universe" in the premise, we could link it to the Universe of Star Wars page. I tried doing this earlier but my changes were reversed.

The Direct reported of "quality over quantity" approach by Lucasfilm with reduced Disney+ series, and return to films... Should it be noteworthy for inclusion.? Vestrian24Bio 16:33, 26 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That article uses "officially" a lot when there's been nothing officially announced that says there's been a change of course. It's a pretty terrible article. Not worth mentioning here. Nemov (talk) 17:07, 26 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

don't think I dare edit such an article as big and fan filled as this, but I wanted opinions,

Now with stern announcing a new SW pin, it made me realise we have 8 pinballs spanning 40 years+. would a mention of these be of any value?

unless I stand corrected there is:

1980 - The Empire Strikes Back - Hankin 1987 - Star Wars - Sonic 1992 - Star Wars - Data East 1997 - The Star Wars Trilogy - Sega 1999 - Star Wars Episode I -Williams 2017 - Star Wars - Stern 2021 - Star Wars - The Mandalorian - Stern 2025 - Star Wars: Fall of the Empire - Stern WikiPidge (talk) 23:54, 28 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I do not think that they should have added the part of the potentially new projects. I feel this way because nothing has been set in stone. Also, it gives the readers of this articles false hope. 128.6.147.101 (talk) 18:50, 30 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm doing some copyediting of this page, and I noticed that the Premise section needs better citations. I added a tag. Right now it uses a lot of primary sources (Star Wars official website), which are not appropriate. It needs reliable, secondary sources to support the text.
