• ... that the actor who played Bib Fortuna did not know he was appearing in a Star Wars film until after he accepted the role?
  • ALT1:... it took more than eight hours to apply make-up to the Bib Fortuna character for the first time in Return of the Jedi?

Improved to Good Article status by Hunter Kahn (talk). Self-nominated at 19:45, 8 May 2020 (UTC).

• Long enough/new enough (just promoted to GA a few days ago). No obvious policy violations. Hooks are sufficiently "hooky" and have inline citations in the article. Presumably Star Wars Insider is considered a reliable source? Shows how much I edit fictional elements articles -- I wouldn't have thought "official" sources would be desirable? Suppose it's more about weight than reliability, and I'm fine to defer to the editor and GA reviewer on that front. I have a weak preference for the first hook, but both are supported, so happy to defer to the promoter. Everything looks good and the QPQ is done, so passing it. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 02:57, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
