The name of the Inert gas Balil is "Balil Gas Inert Gas", where it should be "Balil Inert Gas"

Not sure if this really qualifies as a text bug or not, but a lot of the profession titles for the level 4 skill boxes seem mixed up. For example, In TK, the meditation line uses "Teras Kasi Artist" and where one would expect Teras Kasi Monk (since one of the things monks do is meditate!). Similarly, The Bounty Hunter Investigation line uses the title Avenger, rather than Investigator (Investigator is used by the carbines line IIRC).

Not sure if this fits - but it's annoying, has to do with text, and is abug. (to me at least)
Why does my combat chat tab have /tells in it?

Fireworks like the type 18 firework don't have a proper effect listing.. they do the "type 18 effect"
Also, you could address the fact that fireworks shows are a PITA to put together.. it'd be so much easier dragging & dropping.

When something evades an attack, it gives the message "him evades" instead of "he evades".

At least 1/3 of the time that I loot a humanoid NPC, I get a message saying that I've already looted everything (or something like that) even though I didn't loot anything, including credits. I think it should read, "there was nothing found on the body."
A lot of the combat spam said 'him' instead of 'he'. So that it might say "him takes x damage" (don't remember the specific text but I've noticed this mistake in several places).
In one of the Endor POIs ("Kinda"?), one of the mob types is 'rigualists' instead of 'ritualists'.
The long, 4-5 word name for one of the mites on Endor has two nouns in it, one of those need to become an adjective.
Bah, sorry I can't be more specific but it is late and I've been grinding Holocron xp. I'll get the exact text for you and post it on some of these.
(Oh, and it should be Halberdiers instead of Pikemen. A Pike is a sharp, incredibly long thrusting weapon and none of the 'Pikeman' weapons are actually pike-class weapons).

Not sure where this was, but the word "Nabooian" or something to that effect was written somewhere (yea, I'm being very specific, aren't I). Anyway, the correct way to refer to something from Naboo is "Nubian" (one reference here: http://www.starwars.com/databank/starship/nabooroyalstarship/index.html). Sorry I can't remember where it was...
Maybe I'm the only one that finds such things annoying, but there you have it

If you try to do something from the radial menu of a factory and you are too far away:
"You are too far away to err"
That just cracks me up for some reason.
Also, when a factory output hopper fills up, I get one of two emails with bodies that say something like:
@manufacturing_error_7

When a baby deathblows you *cries* (yes, it does happen) it says something like "You have been slain by (null)."
The text on the droid complexity skill needs to be fixed to be a little more descriptive. ie: this does NOTHING for you, instead of saying it's a null value.

"Be careful with you gun and you won't get hurt."
(It might be "you weapon".)

As someone stated earlier - the pistoleer boxes say point blank 2 is stronger then point blank 2 (paraphrasing). Check all the pistoleer boxes. Unless it has been fixed, Body shot 2 and 3 also had the same problem. Sorry, not in game atm, or I would check for you.

Harvestingduring combatalways gives me the "%TT" in the text as opposed to the name of the creature or resource I'm harvesting.
