"best remembered for"[edit]

I'm putting this here, since the editor who wrote it has been indefinitely blocked.

I tried searching for sources backing this up, but found essentially nothing.

In fact, the only thing I found was perhaps the complete opposite of what's being claimed on the page. As far as I can see, the only real notability Kahn has is from her appearance as only [one out of] three women characters (not named Leia) in Star Wars.

Remember, Star Wars is so unfathomably huge, that even a very small one-line role (such as Kahn's) can bring far greater notability than many complete tv shows.

Editing to reflect this now. Feel free to further improve, especially information on her other work. CapnZapp (talk) 09:49, 12 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I guess I don't need to tell you this, but just to be safe: there are plenty of sources out there who use the exact same language as this page (did). Be sure to not use a source that only leads back to Wikipedia. In fact, googling "Brigitte Kahn" makes for a good example of how an editor back in the 2000s could essentially create truths simply by writing it on Wikipedia - now a decade later, that "information" has been disseminated to many corners of the internet, some even semi-reputable.

Name[edit]

User:CapnZapp, the fact that the character is named Toryn Farr is not external to the article, and it is not "fancruft" to note it. Hppavilion1 (talk) 19:05, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If I understand correctly, you're removing the content for being non-notable; however, per WP:NNC, that isn't actually relevant to its inclusion in the article. Hppavilion1 (talk) 19:10, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I edited the article to include this more notably. It’s absurd to me that the name of the character, even if given after, is not explicitly told in the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:6010:7601:7D57:AD28:9B14:DAB5:38D6 (talk) 15:17, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I insist that there are no reverts of the current emphasis on the name of her character[edit]

The name she was given, even if after the original debut, is notable. More so than unnamed rebel officer. Please do not revert until more of a consensus is established, and right now, it seems like most editors have agreed with the notability of the name with one exception who adamantly reverts it nearly every time
