Huh? We've already got an animated series covering the period between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. --24.141.193.190 23:55, 22 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Title[]

I was under the impression that this was still going to be called Clone Wars, and was just going to be an extended, 3D version of the previous series. Kuralyov 00:08, 23 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Merged to Star Wars: Clone Wars[]

Just to let everyone know, I've redirected this page to Star Wars: Clone Wars, as Lucas has confirmed that it's basically a continuation of that series (though not chronologically). All the information is there, it's been just been moved. Adamwankenobi 15:09, 9 Nov 2005 (UTC)

  • That may be the case, but we don't know it's name yet. Keep it here. --SparqMan 19:17, 9 Nov 2005 (UTC)
    • Yeah, well, on the CW page, I've merely divided it two sections: "2D run" and "3D run." That should clear things up for the moment. Adamwankenobi 19:24, 9 Nov 2005 (UTC)

Empty sections[]

Please stop placing in empty sections that won't be filled in for years at the soonest. They don't make any sense to have and they clutter the article up. When, in three or four years time, that information is available, that will be the time to put it in.Kuralyov 00:37, 10 Nov 2005 (UTC)

  • They are there to keep the second section consistant with the first. Yes, of course they won't be filled for a couple of years, but, like I said, they merely serve as placeholders. Adamwankenobi 00:56, 10 Nov 2005 (UTC)
    • They're placeholders that are not needed. Saying "Since the show hasn't yet been created, there are no awards it has earned or acclaimed remarks about the series, as of yet" is just dumb, nobody needs to know that. --Azizlight 01:02, 10 Nov 2005 (UTC)
      • Yes, I think it's a little bit premature. Those sections can always be added and updated once the show has actually started up. — Silly Dan 01:06, 10 Nov 2005 (UTC)
  • I agree that we should not bother putting those sections in. We can make it consistent with whatever format the page looks like when the time comes (which will probably be different than what it is now). WhiteBoy 01:28, 10 Nov 2005 (UTC)

Adamwankenobi, stop the edit war already, see above comments. --Azizlight 04:46, 10 Nov 2005 (UTC)

  • The point is, it doesn't hurt anything. Adamwankenobi 04:58, 10 Nov 2005 (UTC)
  • The point is, it looks stupid. --Azizlight 05:02, 10 Nov 2005 (UTC)
  • I agree with Azizlight, WhiteBoy, Silly Dan and Kuralyov. Unless my preschool math needs tuning, that makes it 5 against 1. MarcK 05:06, 10 Nov 2005 (UTC)
    • I agree that it may look stupid, but it ensures consistancy in the article. Adamwankenobi 04:54, 11 Nov 2005 (UTC)

This or Labyrinth of Evil?[]

I know this contradicts LoE in a few ways so which is canon? Trueblue9999 05:41, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

  • I don't think there's anything established, and the community seems to be content with merging the two storylines into one. I personally prefer LoE by far, though this was still fun to watch. - lalala_la
    • What distresses me is how some of the highly stylized action sequences of Clone Wars are taken as if they are canon, and integrated into character biographies. But clearly, there's nothing in the films or EU novels to suggest that Mace, Yoda, etc., have anything remotely like the Superman powers they are depicted as having in Clone Wars. Just as Mace doesn't really have a perfectly flat jaw, so too does he not have the ability to practically fly and destroy an entire droid army with his bare hands. If he could have done that, the Clone Wars would have ended in Episode II at Geonosis.

-Maybe there should be a mention of Paxi Solo, the boy from the Mace episodes who In-universe, is thought to have at least made those chapters. Unsigned comment by 69.253.241.122 (talk • contribs).

  • I think they should make a sensible combination with all the characters in LoE and Clone Wars. Cause i like the fact that Shaak Ti, Foul, and Roron battle agaisnt grievous and his guards for a while instead of being killed quickly. Maybe they'll combine the two or make something else in the new clone wars movie that will stop the confusion and make the jedi powers more sensible.JediNTT307 20:57, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

Darth Vader?[]

What's up with the Darth Vader picture? I'm pretty sure that did not show up in Clone Wars - lalala_la

High General Ki-Adi-Mundi must not have many friends[]

When he is rescued on Hypori and sees Aayla and Shaak, did anyone else find it strange that he addresses General Secura by her first name, but addresses High General Ti by both her fore- and surname? Therequiembellishere 18:58, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Question[]

How would you (and everybody else) feel if I put links on the episode/chapter pages to watch the videos without downloading anything or buying anything. Please comment on this.

But...If its illegal than why are sites like Limewire. Google Video. Youtube. Just to name a few. Not shutdown or sued for copy right infringment. Because as long as I am not selling the stuff shouldnt it be okay. 216.211.66.52 10:30, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

I dont get what you are saying. There are hundreds of thousands of copyrighted Movies. Music. Images. Multimedia. Etc-Etc. I would just be puting links for the Episodes on some of the pages related to the subject. I would not be selling it. And I would not be using it to boost web traffic. On a sidenote did you know that the United States Government controls Google. Google Video is a division of Google and on the Tenth of October 2006 Google bought YouTube for 1.65 Billion Dollars thats 883 Million Pound Sterling. And the United States Government also controls major recording companies For films and music and Television Broadcasting companies. So pretty that much leaves copyright agreements null. If You would like some information on this and similar subjects I would be glad to give You some.

I would greatly appreciate Your comments on this Information 216.26.200.148 15:46, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

  • "I dont get what you are saying." Then you clearly didn't read the links. -- I need a name (Complain here) 18:14, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Okay. I still do not understand what you are saying.Could you please enlighten me by outlining what I would be doing wrong if I put links on the pages for the episodes 216.26.208.233 10:34, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Obviously this is foolish trying to address you, but I will try anyway. Just because the U.S. Government controls Google and YouTube by association, does not mean that you can put up whatever you want on those sites. Why? Because as I need a name so bluntly put, there are copyright infringements by doing so. So when you put up episodes of a cartoon show that should not be there, even if they are still existing to this day, you are doing something illegal. Now when you link us to sites that are illegally hosting those episodes, you are roping us into that illegal practice. Why don't we want this? We don't want to be shut down. That's why we try so hard not to plagiarize other sites, to put up accidentally leaked pictures from new comics, and to upload images from Hyperspace. It's illegal to do so, and we'd like our website to stay up for as long as possible. Cull Tremayne 10:57, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

I wanted to hear what I need a name's comment would be. But your information was greatly appreciated to Cull.Thank You.

P.S. I still want to hear I need a name's comment on this. And no offense intended but Cull could you try to sound a little nicer in your comments. As I would like to become a User and ask questions and post comments without wondering if the responses I am going to be getting back are going to be Belittling. Scathing.Rude.Impatient.Obnoxious.Just to name a few. Not that I am implying that yours was any of the above.216.26.209.196 12:53, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

  • I'm sorry I was blunt, but you were given places to go to see just why we do not allow links like that. Please realize that most anonymous users are here to vandalize, and I do try to treat regular users with respect. I wasn't trying to be belittling, but if you can't understand that putting links to copyrighted material is a no-no, then we need to establish why that is a problem real quick. Cull Tremayne 17:12, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Now that I have checked into the matter more deeply I understand. I am sorry for my earlier confusion. And you don't have to worry about me vandalizing anything. But I see a few IP's that are blocked are similar to mine so if My IP is ever blocked for vandalizing anything and and I didn't vandalize anything is there a way I can get a hold of a admin to unblock it. 216.211.73.53 11:02, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Do we really need...[]

...the Main Events section? It's long and pondering and I don't think it's necessary. I think we could just transfer the information there into a plot summary. Unit 8311 16:18, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

redlinks[]

there should be a redlinks waning here. Imperialwalker 21:54, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Inconsistent continuity changes[]

There is a major plot hole in this animated series: when Palpatine appears as the Chancellor, he has smooth teeth; however, when he appears as Darth Sidious his teeth are extra-sharp and fang-like; this is an inconsistency with Star Wars canon, since Palpatine and Sidious are the same character, making it impossible for the two identities to have different tooth jobs; I'm guessing this was purposely done in order to avoid giving hints that the Chancellor is also the Sith Lord before the release of Ep. III - ROTS, but it's still a plot hole within the overall SW continuity. Could someone prove to me the meaning of this motif? Supi&Oola 00:01, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Hmm... never noticed that. Maybe he's wearing false teeth. I don't know. But I think there are larger continuity issues out there than this. :) The whole series was ultra-stylized and not very realistic, so I figure it was just artistic license. GeneralTarfful 23:07, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Fanon?[]

I thought Star Wars: Clone Wars was non-canon, so what is it doing on Wookieepedia? And if it is non-canon, shouldn't it be transfered to the Star Wars Fanon Wiki?Unsigned comment by StarWarsDude (talk • contribs).

  • Wherever did you hear such a thing? No, that's not true at all, and even if it were, we would still cover it because it is an official Star Wars production. -- Ozzel 03:45, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
    • Non-canon =/= fanon. -- I need a name (Complain here) 19:33, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
      • But does it HAVE to be canon? i mean, its a disgrace to the true Fans! Unsigned comment by 99.184.87.204 (talk • contribs).
        • It is canon. No matter what you think. Period. 1358 (Talk) 16:21, October 18, 2010 (UTC)
          • How much of it can still be considered canon, given what's been depicted in Star Wars: The Clone Wars? ProfessorTofty (talk) 03:51, March 9, 2013 (UTC)
            • The micro series is still canon, but please do not post in a three year old discussion section. JangFett (Talk) 03:58, March 9, 2013 (UTC)

Dead Links[]

The links to clonewarz.com and the SW.com Clone Wars Hyperspace site are now dead--or, more precisely, point to different and unrelated pages. Have they just moved, or are they truly dead and gone? GeneralTarfful 23:09, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Woolie[]

Could someone point out the Woolie to me? The closest thing I saw was in Episode 21 in the C-3P0 scene. I watched all of the episodes listed on the Corascant page, and that was the only one with a crowd. What I found didn't have their distinguishing nose, though. 76.116.79.228 00:18, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

Also, a mention should be made about Jack's symbol, the square with a line through each side, being incorporated into the "O" in the Clone Wars logo. I think it is a family symbol or something, as his father was an emperor. It is in many episodes of the Samurai Jack series. 76.116.79.228 01:49, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

"Criticism"[]

Get some sources, otherwise, it sounds like a disguised attempt to complain on the wikia from hardcore purists. Radioactive Zombie 06:06, December 31, 2009 (UTC)

Time Line[]

Before the new clone wars series came out this one stated that Anakin was knighted in 20BBY but the new one has him knighted in 22BBY the same year the war starts. How can this series statements be over ruled by the new one? Unsigned comment by Jedi master425 (talk • contribs).

  • This question has been discussed before. We don't know. Xd 15:15, February 7, 2010 (UTC)

behind the scenes[]

The behind the scenes section was recently removed entirely. I agree that it should be improved, that it should not be a bulleted list, and that not every point on there needs to be included, but I reverted the change because I think that some behind the scenes information does improve the article. Thoughts? —fodigg (talk) | 22:00, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

  • I moved the only information that seemed relevant to this article (the bit about this being the first internet show to win an emmy) into the "production" section. The rest I moved to the appropriate articles. [[User:Adamwankenobi|Adamwankenobi]] 22:28, February 22, 2010 (UTC)
    • Why do you feel that this article would be improved without any behind-the-scenes information? Why move everything to other articles where people won't be able to find it just searching for this topic? —fodigg (talk) | 15:08, February 23, 2010 (UTC)
      • The information I moved to other articles was mostly things like "In the scene where the elder Nelvanian talks about "The Ghost Hand", one of the red buttons tied to his hanging hair has the Japanese symbol that Samurai Jack displays from time to time". Since things like that are way too specific for this artice, I moved them to the appropriate articles ("Clone Wars Chapter 23", in that case). Adamwankenobi 16:20, February 23, 2010 (UTC)
        • I don't disagree with that, I was just surprised to see all BtS information removed. I would rather see points 1 (3PO's design), 3 (Grievous' design), and 7 (Kolar/Koth mixup) stay in this article (although reduced in length and put in paragraph form). The rest I support removing. I feel the above 3 points, as character points, are worth retaining in the primary article. —fodigg (talk) | 16:28, February 23, 2010 (UTC)
          • I agree. I'll incorporate those points into the the article and remove the rest. Adamwankenobi 16:45, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

Continuity section[]

Should the section where it talks about Eeth Koth be updated to mention his canonical appearance in a TCW episode a few weeks ago? Corellian Premier 17:14, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

Does anyone know the name of the song that plays when Obi-Wan is fighting Durge?[]

It's also in the Episode III video game when Anakin and Obi-Wan confront Dooku. Does anyone know the name? BNK [E|T|C] 08:33, July 24, 2012 (UTC)

  • This page is for discussing changes to the article, not talking about the subject. Take your question to the Knowledge Bank. NaruHina Talk Anakinsolo 11:12, July 24, 2012 (UTC)

Are you sure this belongs to legends[]

I mean the 2008 movie and series are consider cannon and it was stated that those movie and series are a continuation / tie-in of this series, so doesn't that mean that this series is also cannon?, just Saying.Unsigned comment by Jorgito me lo pinto (talk • contribs).

  • Yes, this belongs in Legends. Also, please sign your post with 4 ~.AV-6R7User talk:AV-6R7 07:45, August 2, 2014 (UTC)
    • I'm not quite sure this goes with Legends. The 2008 series was a continuation of this series. For example, note that in The Clone Wars movie Dooku mentioned Assaj Ventress looking for revenge which I always assumed was for her losing the fight to Anakin in this series. Also, the final chapters of it led right up to Episode III with Palpatine's "kidnapping." GreenDragonRanger (talk) 02:55, October 15, 2014 (UTC)
      • Oh yes, we are very certain this is Legends. For one thing, it was directly stated by the powers-that-be from Disney/Lucasfilm Ltd. that from before April 25, the only material not Legends was the six films, the The Clone Wars film and the The Clone Wars TV series. And besides that, much of what is seen in this series is contradictory of what is seen in The Clone Wars and is therefore by definition Legends anyway. And as for your latter point, Labyrinth of Evil also led directly up to Episode III; it is still considered Legends. If you're still confused, you might want to read this and this. ProfessorTofty (talk) 03:04, October 15, 2014 (UTC)
        • You might want to reread the exact wording of that announcement. It’s not stated with nearly as much clarity as you suggest, which is unfortunate. There’s still room for confusion. As for contradictions, TCW isn’t even 100% consistent with itself across the whole series. So CW contradicting TCW is not terribly compelling. That isn’t to say you’re wrong about the core question even if I wish you were. I find it baffling that they would cast out a series that has such affection even outside the core fandom and which is tied right up in many fans’ core experience of the PT, especially Episode III. It’s not an accident that Ventress has no real introduction in TCW. It was understood that a big chunk of the audience already knew who she was, primarily because of her appearance in CW. She had an Unleashed figure, for crap’s sake. Heck, my senior citizen mother—hardly a fanatic—recognized her right off in TCW. And then there’s Padmé’s Ilum outfit, one of her most iconic looks. Throwing out the whole series just feels incredibly wrong headed to me. Then again, so did cancelling TCW; the wisdom of such decisions (or lack thereof) has no bearing on whether those decisions still represent official policy.74.74.120.100 06:44, November 12, 2014 (UTC)
          • Okay, even assuming nothing else up to this point is true, which it is, look at it this way. Star Wars: Clone Wars isn't acknowledged anymore, it isn't marketed anymore. It's not referenced on the official website and is directly counter to a series for which they are still about to release a DVD / Blu-ray for. It's a Legend. And that announcement is very clear. "This includes the six Star Wars episodes, and the many hours of content he developed and produced in Star Wars: The Clone Wars. These stories are the immovable objects of Star Wars history, the characters and events to which all other tales must align." That. Not Star Wars: Clone Wars, not anything else. Only those. And if that wasn't clear enough, there was a Q+A session done, in which Leland Chee I think it was answered questions about what still is and isn't canon and said specifically that it's a no on Star Wars: Clone Wars. I can link you that, if you like. ProfessorTofty (talk) 09:14, November 12, 2014 (UTC)
            • Not to bring up an old and dead topic, but Clone Wars was recently featured on StarWars.com here as part of their From Concept to Screen series. I'm not sure if that's enough to bring it into canon but it has been acknowledged and referenced on the official website so I feel it is worth discussing, unless it has been definitively confirmed as Legends material/non-canon elsewhere from an official source. Ruthless Xero(Talk) 00:38, December 15, 2015 (UTC)
              • Legends stories are frequently acknowledged on StarWars.com. They don't pretend that Legends doesn't exist, it's just not part of the official Star Wars story anymore. So that is indeed not enough to go on to suggest it's canon. It's Legends until they explicitly say it's canon. - Brandon Rhea(talk) 00:39, December 15, 2015 (UTC)
