Talk:Jonathan Quesenberry

Style pass (2026-10-15)

Missing data

• "FL" is printed on some slots in the surviving Squadron tables; the tables do not spell out the abbreviation (moved from article).

Marginal cuts

• "Other sourced notes" section folded in: Radio Free Decipher broadcast 10 (5 March 1999) host is now a Service row and a Red Leader sentence; "The anagram list unscrambles Bren Quersey as Jonathan Quesenberry" repeats the Anagrams section; the Jonathon spelling moved to the lead.
• Lead: "listed as Red Leader from Decipher Inc. The published fan table marks the slot Retired" reworded to state the fact (source: geocities.ws/plarathas SMs.html, ref sm-fan).

Signed Red Leader In Red 1 (Reddit, 2025)

Reasoning for the Signed cards entry (File:Signed Red Leader In Red 1 (Reddit, 2025).jpg). Confidence: tentative. No reply in either thread names the signer of this card, and I found no reference signature of Quesenberry to compare it with.

• Source: "Does anyone recognize these signatures?", r/starwarsccg, posted by _Sols_Golden_Curse_ on 1 September 2025 (Preserved copy: Internet Archive). One photo of three cards the poster got "in a big eBay set my parents bought for me circa 2001 or so": Obi-Wan With Lightsaber, Gold Leader In Gold 1 and Red Leader In Red 1.
• The other two cards in the photo carry the signatures of Justin Pakes and of Kendrick Summers, the Squadron Gold Leader, on the Gold Leader card. Red Leader In Red 1 is the other Rebel Leader Packs card, so the Squadron Red Leader is the matching candidate for its signature.
• The_Abjectator replied that Red Leader "was named Jonathon Quesenberry", citing the Players Committee Decipher SWCCG Squadron Members list (Preserved copy: Internet Archive); see Squadron Members.
• Against: jbhelfrich replied that "Red Leader, at least by my time in the Squadron Program, was Kyle Heuer, and there's no way I can make that signature fit that name"; see Kyle Heuer. ro23dart replied that "Red leader is also a Decipher employee but I forget his name".
• My reading of the letterforms: a tall looped capital that reads as "J", a short run of lower-case letters, then a large closed loop with a long descender that could be a "Q". This fits "Jon Q…" but is not legible enough to confirm on its own.
• A reply by JerseyMuscle17 is now deleted on Reddit and shows as [deleted] in the preserved copy; its text survives in the PullPush Reddit archive (comment id nbwv25w): "Gold Leader in Gold 1 is definitely Kendrick Summers, who was Gold 1 for the Squadron program. I don't remember who Red Leader was". The same reply named "Juz Pakes (sp?)" for the Obi-Wan card.
• The same three cards, with the signatures in the same places, were posted on 2 January 2021 by razorh00f as "autographed cards?" (Preserved copy: Internet Archive). The reply by Cringwell there reads: "Left one is Juz Pakes (marketing guy and then co-designer for the episode 1 sets) and right one is Kendrick Summers (one of the marketing guys)". The middle card in that photo is Red Leader In Red 1, which the reply does not name.
• What would settle it: another signed card or document with Quesenberry's signature, or a reply from someone who knew him.
