Going back to lightsabre vs. lightsaber (pg. 2), the original Star Wars novelisation by ADF and GL listed it as "lightsabre", then Splinter of the Mind's Eye by ADF listed it as "light-sabre". I'm pretty sure everything since has gone to lightsaber.

Oh yeah, he might have....but since he's the only one, I would tend to think that it was intentionally because he was a kid and didn't know much about them.

I'm pretty sure Anakin uses the term "Jedis" in Episode 1, although you could argue that he's just a kid and grammar isn't a Tatooine slave's strong suit.

I'm assuming Lucas Licensing has a policy against "Jedis," since it just about never shows up in any of the literature. And Lucas never used it in the movies I don't think, so he's probably just being over-causual when he's talking.

Jedi as a collective noun? The novels mostly use Jedi as a collective noun, but George Lucas intermittently uses the term (shudder) Jedis.

I have an idle question on two characters from the final episode of the Ewoks cartoon:
Dr. Raegar or Dr. Raygar?
Admiral Kazz or Admiral Kaaz?
Thanks!

I think it's pretty well established that "Hutt" is the correct spelling
Yes, I'm aware. It was just a point of interest for me, and I thought I'd pass it along to others who may not have noticed the discrepancy.

I think it's pretty well established that "Hutt" is the correct spelling, since it's been used very consistently since then, even, I think, in the movie scripts.

Here's one I'm surprised no one seems to have brought up: in the first edition of Star Wars (novel) released in '77-'78, Jabba is a Hut, but in all later sources, he and his species are Hutts.

*Yes. We have no intentions of using the Sulorine spelling in the future. *
Scratch that. Sulorine is the spelling we are now using. Sorry for the confusion.

(Secrets of the Sisar Run, p. 26; explanation of error here).
Wow, that's ancient history. I wrote that last century.  Good find, and it brings back fuzzy memories.

At the end of 'The White Witch' episode, Tig Fromm speaks of the swamps of a certain planet. Is that Borga? I don't have any subtitles on that VHS, so I haven't got a clue.

Thanks very much. I saw 'Coby & the Starhunters' again yesterday and sometimes the pronunciation sounds different than the actual spelling.

"Atrusian" or "artusian" crystals"
You are correct. It should be Artusian.
