In the Essential Chronology, which you helped write, the major battle between Ackbar and Pelleon takes place right before the Corellian crisis, about thirteen years after Endor.

Yet, more recently, the New Essential Guide to Characters, under the Ackbar entry, says that the major battles between Ackbar and Pellaeon took place after the Corellian crisis.

Mr. Wallace, there have been a few debates going around about Captain Pellaeon's retreat order at Endor. Since you wrote the article on Grand Admiral Teshik, could you answer wheather or not Pellaeon ordered for the fleet to retreat before or after the Grand Admiral's Star Destroyer was disabled?
