Some other generic possibles...
Broker, Entrepreneur, Merchandiser
Or to really go with the idea of efficiency...
Auditor, Bookkeeper, Comptroller, and maybe Financier (Dictionary: One who is occupied with or expert in large-scale financial affairs).
Also, To fix the same title between Merchant: Hiring (Foreman) and Architect: Construction (Foreman), changing Architect: Construction to "Urban Planner" would work nicely (as Construction is the location for all the new city schematics).
Lazarus Long, Master Architect
Sleub Tag'Lim, Master Artisan, Master Entertainer, Musician, Merchant

Dancers techniques 4 skillbox title is not consistent with the 3 below it, nor with the musicians techniques 4 box.
kind of a sore thumb in an otherwise purdy skilltree layout.

Publish 6 Crackdown Strings:
Your Failure to comply with directive 74b has been noted in your file. Your status as an imperial citizen is in Jeapordy (should be Jeopardy) if you continue contraband activites.
Possession is also spelled Posession once. I couldn't remember the exact string.

Also, I remember "a trandashan slaver camp" or something to that nature in missions.

Certification string:
In the certification list there is an entry:
Cert grenade fragmentation lightagmentation light
I have no idea what this is supposed to mean. Is it a light light agmentation (as opposed to augmentation) fragmentation grenade? if so, that is some grenade. It lights up the room and kills everyone inside!

I agree that merchant titles need some spicing up! Good suggestions from the previous posters.
Propagandist, people like that one. The rest are really dull.
My pettygripe is that Maulers seem to have the same babble text as stormtroopers. It just doesn't fit. Shouldn't they be a bit more.. zealous? Its weird to whiz by and have them say, "boy, I wish it was time to get off duty!"
Along the same lines, on occasion I will get strange things like, "Boy, you're a sight for sore eyes!" in passing from someone who hates me. (Sorry for the lack of specifics here, I can't remember which mob it is exactly but it's one of the aggressive roguish elements of naboo).

while the name of the profession is "Carbineer" (also the names of the skill boxes), the description of the skills and the ranks says "Carbinier"
you should decide which one you want and then make all the same

Hovering one's mouse over the Pistol Melee Defense 2 icon in the Commands and Abilities Granted box, in the Pistol Stances 3 box of the Pistoleer tree in the Skills UI, shows the message:
This melee attack with your pistol is useful for close encounters. This is more damaging than Pistol Melee Defense 2
It should read, ...than Pistol Melee Defense 1.

When I did Fixer's quest (at Tosche Station outside Anchorhead), there were many boxes replacing punctuation. It was quite distracting.
By the way, this isn't a typo error, but on one of Fixer's missions you have to deliver an item to his girlfriend, Camie. If you've listened to the NPR radio drama you'll feel an instant delight for this mission. However, when you get to Camie, you'll be quite surprised to find her a hostile Zabrakian women!! I delivered the item, and then this tatooed beast attacked me! I couldn't bare the thought of actually killing Camie, so I ran like hell away. I wouldn't mind this being corrected.

I can't be sure if this is still in the game, as I can't log in right now, but...
In some cases, "aluminium" is spelt "aluminum"
I know that's the way some of you guys far west SAY it, but it isn't correct. "Aluminium" is the correctspelling of the element.
That's my real pet peeve of a text bug, the others I can live with.

Well its been a bit since i noticed this , so it may be gone. But occasionally when conversing with an NPC ( whom i assume is part of someone quest) It will say "DontKnowYou" or something like that, with no spaces.
