- 2.08 meters is just riddicolous. Clone Commander Lee Talk 13:44, July 2, 2010 (UTC)
- "2.08 meters" What?--Jedi Kasra (comlink) 03:39, July 4, 2010 (UTC)
- Easy explaination. Jango was taken off at the knees at some point, while all his clones retained his natural height, so they were too as one of Jango's conditions. Axe was the first one made after he died and the Kaminoans ceased following the request, only to resume the practice because it was wierd having one taller than the others… NaruHina Talk 09:18, July 4, 2010 (UTC)
- I need to get my wordy GAs over here too eventually. CC7567 (talk) 05:25, July 10, 2010 (UTC)

Yay. TCW.[]
"Onboard the Resolute, Blue Squadron would be assigned to destroy the enemy blockade." - This is a bit odd, I don't know whether it's the tense usage, but it could probably stand to be shuffled around a bit.- Otherwise fine. Thefourdotelipsis 04:12, July 2, 2010 (UTC)
- How's that? I changed "would" to "was," proper tense. :P JangFett (Talk) 10:44, July 2, 2010 (UTC)
- ...probably could have done that myself. I apologise. Thefourdotelipsis 10:47, July 2, 2010 (UTC)

Toprawa[]
Does the source really say this? This kind of smells like a poor extrapolation. Same with the bio: "During the Clone Wars, Axe was normally present on board Jedi General Anakin Skywalker's Venator-class Star Destroyer"The article should specify his unique height somewhere in the IU portion, rather than just leaving it for the BTS.Toprawa and Ralltiir 22:15, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
Comments[]
I most likely won't be available to address any objections or comments from July 2nd through the 5th, as I will be away. JangFett (Talk) 02:28, July 2, 2010 (UTC)- Not really an objection, but ... the entire 2.08 meters thing. If it's important enough to add as a footnote due to the discrepancy established in the Character Encyclopedia, then its worth mentioning in the article body itself. Or, if its a simple error, then can we get a comment from Jason Fry on it? He appears to be very receptive to fan questions over at TFN regarding material from the Essential Atlas and the forthcoming Essential Guide to Warfare. - Cavalier One(Squadron channel) 13:46, July 9, 2010 (UTC)
- Hopefully the sentence I added in the P&T works for you. If not, let me know. :) JangFett (Talk) 02:28, July 12, 2010 (UTC)
- Good enough for me, but I would be appreciative if you kept an eye out for errata concerning this subject. Someone is bound to ask the question at some point. - Cavalier One(Squadron channel) 13:35, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
