Talk:Jedi General
Back to page
The "list" here has a potential to grow very huge and as a result be nearly meaningless. Every Jedi with the rank of Knight or higher was given the title "General", as a result, this list could potentially have hundreds of entries. Maybe it should be retitled "Significant Generals"?

- Well, I'm not fan of lists in general (nice pun, wacka wacka). Although was Anakin given the rank of General? I thought he was just a sidekick to Kenobi's generalship. --SparqMan 16:15, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Anakin was just a lieutenant. Or so his article says. --Imperialles 16:27, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Why do I recall the Clone Wars cartoon calling him "Commander Skywalker?"--Eion 16:35, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- He's not a Jedi Knight then, remember. In the EU set after his knighthood he is definately referred to as "General Skywalker". QuentinGeorge 06:07, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- When? Even during ROTS he isn't refered to as General. I think that many Jedi who did not object became Generals, but not all. Many more were involved though. --SparqMan 06:10, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Certain EU sources label Anakin as a General during the time of RotS. He's a lieutenant in the early stages of the war - and I think 'commander' is more a term used by his pilots, not necessarily his rank. But he's definately a General after his Knighthood - Kwenn
- I should also note that the Siege of Saleucamu arc has A'Sharad Hett, Xiaan Asmeru, Jeisel, K'Kruhk, Quinlan Vos, Oppo Rancisis and others all as Generals. QuentinGeorge 06:21, 27 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Shouldn't Revan be also considered a General of the Mandalorian Wars? - Sikon 15:35, 5 Aug 2005 (UTC)
- Revan was not representing the Jedi Order, and was thus not a Jedi general. --Imp 18:48, 5 Aug 2005 (UTC)
- And the Exile was? At that time, they were still Jedi Knights - Exile hasn't been exiled, and Revan hasn't yet fallen to the Dark Side. - Sikon 04:53, 6 Aug 2005 (UTC)
- They were Jedi, as well as generals, but weren't "Generals of the Jedi Order" as they acted against the Council's command. --Imp 07:52, 6 Aug 2005 (UTC)
- But weren't ALL the Jedi who fought in the Mandalorian Wars defying the Council? in that case, the Jedi Exile should be removed from the list, as he was as much a renegade as Revan. QuentinGeorge 07:55, 6 Aug 2005 (UTC)

I didn't put Revan down as a Jedi General because there is no reference of him being one. I think Revan had a higher rank than General, being some sort of supreme allied commander. The Jedi Exile on the other hand has a reference of him being a General. The Jedi that defied the Council should still be counted as Jedi Generals since they were representing the Jedi Order during the late parts of the war when the Jedi Council had declared Revan a hero.

Mace's Quote
Edit
Hey, I was wondering, should I add Mace's quote from Episode II; "We're keepers of the peace, not warriors.(Or whatever that quote was)"? Please voice your opinion! --DarthCow--Talk| Email
- That's not really a quote about Jedi Generals, but it's a good quote for the Jedi Order page. Admiral J. Nebulax (talk) 23:21, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
Keyan Farlander
Edit
I would dispute Keyan Farlander being styled a Jedi General. Farlander was a General in the New Republic/Galactic Alliance Defense Force, not a Jedi General. -- SFH 00:41, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
- If that is the case, that should be removed. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision)
00:43, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
- NEC specifically calls him "Jedi General Keyan Farlander." Besides, in the Clone Wars, Jedi Generals were just Jedi that had held the military rank of general. It's no different. Kuralyov 00:44, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
- Good point. Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision)

- So by this reasoning, would Luke Skywalker be considered a Jedi General during his campaign against Lord Shadowspawn? -- SFH 15:42, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
- I'd say yes. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision)

Adi Gallia
Edit
Wasn't Adi Gallia a High General?--DarkShroud 16:32, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
Luke Skywalker
Edit
Luke was a Jedi and a General but he wasnt a jedi general, jedi generals represented the jedi order. Alexsau1991 22:33, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
Well, Luke was the Jedi Order when he was a general. Therefore he was a Jedi General. User:DogoHalibar
Revanchists
Edit
Do we have any canonical source that says all the revanchists were generals. Perhaps only the high-ranking ones were generals, like revan, malak and the exile. User talk:1705jallen
All-inclusive?
Edit
Should this page be made so as to only deal with those Jedi who strictly held the rank "Jedi General," and therefore not the High and Senior Generals? We have pages for them, but not one that is exclusively about the "common" Generals. Makashi Flourish 21:06, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
We should acknowledge that not all Jedi were good generals
Edit
It stands to reason that a decidedly peaceful and thoughtful organization wouldn't be the best suited to command military campaigns. At the Battle of Geonosis, for example, novice Jedi misused the Special Forces division as infantry, getting almost half of the clone commandos killed. I just think the article should mention that because the jedi weren't trained militarily, sometimes they messed up bad. 208.22.79.251 00:38, December 13, 2009 (UTC)
Wasn't Luke A General?
Edit
Wasn't Luke Skywalker a General in 5 ABY during the Galactic Civil War?

Missing Entries
Edit
Kento Marek and his wife Mallie were both Jedi during the Clone Wars therefore they were Jedi Generals. Rac Ward
Placing the article into categories?
Edit
From around the time of the Clone Wars should the article be broken down into how the were ranked? For example:
High Jedi Generals:
Mace Windu, Yoda, Obi-Wan Kenobi
Senior Jedi Generals
Ry-Gaul, Rahm Kota
Jedi Generals
Anakin Skywalker, Kento Marek
Bardan Jusik?
Edit
Wasn't Bardan a general durind Triple Zero and True Colors? —Unsigned comment by 208.102.45.140 (talk • contribs).
