The article says How the symbol was modified to the six-spoke form is a point of historical debate. However everything on the emblem appears 8 times, never 6. Number 6 appears firstly in the emblem of the Empire, but the article makes clear that this change concerned the republic not the Empire. I tried to fix this. Can someone verify my correction?

• The article is a bit confusing in that matter. It first says the modified 6 Spoke version was adopted by the Empire, but then goes on to say "One camp holds that the Jedi Knights altered it after the Unification Wars, and with their knowledge of the early Bendu faith, recommended its adopted by the Republic." This makes no sense at all considering that as far as I am aware, (and also according to the rest of the article) the six spoke version was never used by the Republic. While I do not claim to know anything of the history of the symbol, it should be modified as it is confusing to myself when looking for info on the subject. I recommend removing the above quoted statment and changing the article to say "There is some argument as to whether Palpatine twisted it after forming his Galactic Empire, or was not responsible, but revised history to say that he was." --Refuse Winst 04:00, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Actually, as seen in RotS Incredible Cross-Sections and the film itself, Anakin's interceptor already uses the six-spoked design prior to the formation of the Empire, though Obi-Wan still has the eight-spoke - \\Captain Kwenn// ^{— Ahoy!} 14:25, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
    • The six spoke symbol was used in the CLONE WARS, NOT the Unification Wars. The bit in the cross-section book is the ONLY piece of literature that makes any connection between the two, and it says, quote, "A reduced form of the Bendu-inspired symbol used in the unification wars" <---READ - POOR GRAMMAR, that could and should be interpreted as "a reduced form of the original bendu symbol" not "a symbol that was also used in the Unification Wars". The Jedi would never use a six-spoke symbol anyway, that was the whole point of Palpatines defacing - I'm editing the page back.66.158.225.115 04:01, December 9, 2009 (UTC)

Native American or Indian Edit

• The Nazi smbol was a perversion of a Native American Not Indian (India) Symbol.
  • Reading the article on Wikipedia, it was actually both. – Aidje _talk 07:32, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Sith civil civil war Edit

I think it is important to determin wich war its beed referred... From the three recorded here, I think that opnly two of them might be the ones to be used: the secon one (after the exile defeated the sith, and went into the search for Revan) and/or the third (That happened between 1010BBF & 1006BBF with Lord Kaan) viento 18:30, 10 february 2007 (UTC)

Inspiration for Bendu Edit

The Bendu symbols resemble Japanese Kamon to me rather than anything else, or is that just co-incidental?

Great War Sith symbol Edit

What about including the symbol of Sith Empire (Great War) into the article?

• Yeah, good luck finding an explanation/excuse for that. Apparently, the Sith now preceeded the Republic in using a symbol of non-confrontational beliefs - which, for some reason, is then adopted by the Republic. By far not the only thing TOR got wrong, sadly. Lynata 01:30, 17 August 2010 (GMT)
  • I'm not sure of an official source on this, but I believe the Sith Empire eventually merged with the Republic, and the Republic adopted the symbol to show that they wanted to keep the galaxy unified or something. But I agree, it doesn't make sense why the the Sith Empire would use a symbol which during that time was meant to represent non-conflict.StarsiderSWG 16:21, January 9, 2012 (UTC)
