Talk:Jedi Code

From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.

Doesn't the Jedi Code have 4 precepts? I can't remember the line about chaos and harmony from the Star Wars Encyclopedia.--Ilovjedi 17:44, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

Shouldn't we just redirect it to jedi, considering this text is just a copy of the text at jedi?-LtNOWIS 15:17, 13 May 2005 (UTC)

  • I think it could use its own article, but it needs more than a quotation. It should explain the development of the Jedi Code, it's role in the Jedi Order, and it's influences on the New Jedi Order. --SparqMan 16:51, 13 May 2005 (UTC)

I cleaned up the Miscellaneous Tenets section, including deleting the idea that Jedi are celibate, which George Lucas has himself debunked. ----Benkenobi84 17:03, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Do we want to mention that the code did not come into common usage until after Odan-Urr's death? Because I know that none of the Master's in the Tales of the Jedi series ever even mention the code and then in the Knights of the Old Republic games it is like the Ten Commandments of the Jedi written in stone that everyone follows. Maybe after Odan-Urr died and the war was over the Jedi started looking over his stuff, he was first and formost a scholar afterall so he must have left tones of writings, and they decided as a tribute to him to make this one of his works their code. I wonder if Nomi Sunrider didn't have something to do with it. We know that she was the leader of the Order after the Great Sith War and that the code became as big as it became during that time. --Kyp-Durron 20:33, 7 July 2006 (UTC)Kyp-Durron

[edit] Additional Code

The RotS video game has the following Jedi Code:

"A Jedi shall not know anger. A Jedi shall not know hatred. A Jedi shall not know love. There is no emotion, there is peace. There is no ignorance, there is knowledge. There is no passion, there is serenity. There is no death, there is the Force."

If you destroy the holograms, it becomes:

"A Jedi shall know anger. A Jedi shall hate. Knowledge is passion. Death is the Force."

  • Yeah, I think so.Grunny 06:19, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Is the discussion on whether Jedi were vegetarians relevant? Has this been mentioned in any source material?--Benkenobi84 04:44, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image

I uploaded this image from The Official Star Wars Fact File Issue 107. The hands appear to be Odan-Urr's? I was not sure where to place the image? ---Volemlock 09:22, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

No, since it looks like the revised codeMoffRebus 17:37, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
Btw I edited the image adding aurebesh to make it more in-universe... experimentally. Edit as you will MoffRebus 17:38, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
No problem with the image, but is that from a canonical source? - TopAce 17:47, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
Look beginning of the discussion. The aurebesh are my own edits MoffRebus 20:53, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
then it cannot be used Jedi Dude 21:51, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
I have not seen anyone else objecting and nobody took the liberty to remove it. Oppinions? MoffRebus 21:32, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
We should use the canonical version. As the Corporate Sector Authority logo attests, both the alphabet and the aurebesh are used in the Star Wars galaxy, and even if they didn't, we still shouldn't be modifying canon images. jSarek 01:43, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] There is no chaos, there is harmony?

I've memurized the code by heart. and this precept of the code I ahve only seen in KOTOR.. is it Canon and if so why do they leave ito ut of most EU? (ex. I, Jedi. and Darth Maul Shadow Hunter)becaus they seem to skip that part in all other appirences and soruces i've seen. anyone have any idea as to why? Valin "Tnu" "Shido" Suul 11:27, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Allso it says that that pretence had stoped beign used in 20 BBY however Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter was in 35 BBY (I think) Valin "Tnu" "Shido" Suul 11:32, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

WHY was it stopped after 20 BBY? -69.249.85.13 03:35, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

  • This part of the code is canon, since it appears in a few sources so far, but I don't know why they stopped it, I think we should leave it as is now.

  • I agree that it should be not be canon mostly because I have it tattooed to me in galactic basic without that line. Therufus 00:45, 20 March 2008 (UTC)therufus
In real life, the code was originally the 4 line code. As far as I know, the original 4 line version was first printed in the 1980s Star Wars Roleplaying Game by West End Games (WEG) (although they may have gotten it from a novel, I don't know for certain). Every version since then had been the 4 line version. In 1996 WEG published the supplement to "Tales of the Jedi" which had the 5-line version. KOTOR also featured that version. Since then, the 4 line version has still appeared again, and it is the 4 line version that is shown on the official starwars.com site. I'm not sure why the five line version was placed in a few sources so long after the 4 line version had been around, and why it was used again after. My guess is that some writer somewhere simply liked it and tried to weasel it into what s/he was working on for no good reason. However, if we are to make some sense out of this, then I suppose since the 5-line version happened to appear in products taking place in the distant Star Wars past, then we should explain it away by saying the 5-line code was the ancient one, and at some point before the films, the chaos line was dropped. --66.64.26.92 16:51, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Featured Article

I don't know how to do it since they have change the format of Wookieepedia but I think they should nomiate this page for Featured Article. Apotheoses Jedi 14:00 9 September 2007

[edit] The Force as a tool or as an ally?

For the last part of the "Public Service" section, the last sentence for "Provide Support" states, "Jedi should remember that they wielded the marvelous tool of the Force, and that they should be prepared to use it only for good." Weren't Jedi taught to remember that the Force was an ally not just some weapon, equipment, or tool? Cyfiero 05:45, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] dark jedi code

does anyone know where this is from? There is no peace, there is anger.

There is no fear, there is power. There is no death, there is immortality. There is no weakness, there is the Dark Side. I am the Heart of Darkness. I know no fear, But rather I instill it in my enemies. I am the destoyer of worlds. I know the power of the Dark Side. I am the fire of hate. All the Universe bows before me. I pledge myself to the Darkness. For I have found true life, In the death of the light. —Unsigned comment by 71.198.202.6 (talk • contribs).

  • I don't know where that is from, but it's obviously fanon. 96.240.194.128 21:29, 14 April 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Several Versions

Shouldn't all the versions be listed? Jedi Knight Zinquinthia25 02:39, 25 April 2008 (UTC) it sounds famililer

[edit] Crystal code?

Why was the Crystal removed? It's not fanon, it appears in the Clone Wars TV series. Perhaps the name isn't correct, but the code itself is. --Potato Jedi 13:24, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
