Don't get me wrong, I love Wookieepedia and would be lost without it, but it surprises me that Filoni--who has direct access to the 'Cron--instead consults the Wook. I wonder why. Is it, perhaps, easier/quicker to access? Or maybe the Holocron entries are more "just the facts" whereas Wookieepedia's entries have sort of a narrative voice? I don't know. It's just interesting to me. Wook or 'Cron, (or now the CSWE) I'm just glad the man does his homework.

Leland Y Chee posted:Each newly named ship, however minor, is given its own entry with a full description, and as the ship's history evolves, the description is updated. Any major stats that are available (ie size, manufacturer, weapons, etc.)are also noted. If an image is available, we will include that as well. But for older entries, such as minor ships from the West End Games RPG or the X-wing videogames, the ships are lumped together in a single entry by source, with little or no details. If those ships are used in a later source, they are then given their own entry.

In LACWAC, HGilroy posted:Okay, so it's raining cats and dogs here in the desert and I'm taking a break from writing to say you guys are sharp and pretty much have the Clone Wars: Decoded figured out... as usual. Steve Melching and I are working on it and will be talking a little more about it on the forcecast this next week. As to what it is, you guys know the sw universe inside and out, so the obvious 'info-nuggets' are really for the younger viewers who are really just learning about the sw universe. You guys may not know this, but for hundreds of thousands of kids who watch the show, this series is their first exposure to Star Wars. A whole new generation of fans are coming into existence and they are hungry for info (not all of them can afford the guide books -- which are selling like crazy btw). And the little details that may need useless to you, like how many cannon a jedi cruiser has on it, is cool 'schoolyard rep' info for many others. Of course, Steve and I are mixing in some obscure stuff just for you guys, too.... and yes, the continuity fans will be kept very busy... at least I hope so. At the next con I attend to sign at, I will have a big bottle of advil and any strict continuity fan is welcome to come get free head painkillers, on me. Best, Henry In other news, the Clone Wars season finale beat BSG series finale in the ratings.
