476:. I would not be opposed to merging this and the academy into a more general article on the very notable subject of architecture in the Star Wars universe. I also think they are just fine as stand-alone subjects that have been covered substantially in reliable independent sources. Editors are welcome to make improvements, add citations, trim extraneous or unencyclopedic content, but I encourage all editors to think creatively about how to include subjects of interest like these instead of rushing to delete them. We are a pageless encyclopedia, so including notable elements of fiction does not distract or detract from coverage of non-fictional subjects. They can all exist peacefully and in harmony with one another and the force. 563:, but I don't think a stand-alone does any harm and there are probably sources out there. What kind of classes are done there? Is it an educational model for the future? How does it differ from our schools? What is it based on? How does it compare to Star Trek and other sci-fi futuristic depictions of academies? People have written on these subjects, whether it's available easily online I'm not so sure, but I think we should work to improve it rather than rush to delete it because it's not a good article yet. To do otherwise would be to side with the dark side. 690:, the planet the temple's located on, although GTBacchus's idea isn't bad either. I'm not convinced there's enough real-world notability for the temple itself to justify a separate article - the journal source is nice but isn't very long, and it's nothing that can't be covered in design notes for Coruscant, 615:. This is a very notable part of an extremely notable franchise. The temple is covered in great detail in a number of the books and plays an important role in the movies. It is the scene of a pivotal part of one of the movies. Yes, I am a SW fan, so no need to point out that I'm part of the SW project. 591:
The lexicography link is merely a dictionary definition; it hardly substantiates the subject's notability. The blurb of production information can easily be integrated into the article on TPM. All your rhetorical questions are invitations for original research -- no one in the real world cares enough
577:
If you think there's something "we" should do, your most pragmatic course of action is to just start doing it. Asking or expecting others to agree with you doesn't tend to work. Therefore, why spend your energy trying to convince people who are very, very unlikely to be convinced? Our time on Earth

The article as it stands right now is obviously insufficient as it lacks sources and citations, but I'm pretty sure there are reliable third party sources on this topic out there, and that the article could pretty easily be rewritten in a Knowledge (XXG)-friendly context placing less focus on the

I'm also a SW fan and part of the project. Can you point toward any significant *third-party* sources that discuss this subject in sufficient detail to substantiate your claim of notability? What text offers sufficient material from the real-world perspective to justify -- and substantiate -- an

Well, that article does go into some detail on the building, and that's just based on its architectural notability (#3 mind you of all architectural features in the Star Wars universe!). There is also it's notability as a feature in the plots and storylines of numerous books, comics and movies.

is limited; don't use yours knocking your head against a wall. That wall doesn't care about your head, and you can't make it care. What you can do is take a more pragmatic approach. Idealism on Knowledge (XXG) leads to grief, 10 times out of 10. You wanna roll those dice? Really? -
498:. The journal link is nice, but it hardly counts as significant coverage in multiple reliable sources, and it's hard to imagine having an article with two or three times more content than the only source it has. Have you found any you'd like to add, because I've drawn a blank. ~ 664:, and for any other important buildings. Any building in that article that seems to have enough detailed information about it to split off as something more than a stub, can be split off when that becomes clear, leaving a 160: 207:

Here's another strong indication of notability, inclusion in Universalities: Webster's Quotations, Facts and Phrases By Inc Icon Group International
