Talk:Humanoid

From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.

I don't think Human counts as a humanoid species. Since bipedal species are split into humanoid and near-human, to say a Human is a Humanoid is to completely undermine the two definitions.

I added a link to the Near-Human article in the introduction; I thought it would help people locate the species they are searching for. Smellynerfherder 17:56, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

Where does this "anthropoid" business come from? I had never seen it before today. What's the source? Jenosidanian 06:39, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Early Marvel Star Wars issues. They describe Chewie as an anthropoid, which is exactly the same. MoffRebus 15:45, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Could you add a source then? Or even a reference at the bottom? I agree with Jenosidanian, it's not a commonly used term. Smellynerfherder 19:02, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Mandalorian?

Sorta curious why Mandalorian is listed as a near-human species, when it's more of a culture then any one species. I've seen images of Mando'ade of various species, including rodian.StavesAndSabers 19:34, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
