While researching Vanden Willard (another character that deserves a lot mre attention that he has gotten this far), I was wondering where it has been officially stipulated that he's from *Alderaan*?

Darth Contagion:

Tasty Taste, could you please confirm once and for all that there is a single continuity in Star Wars, composed of G, C, S and now T-canon, and that they all officially coexist except where they contradict, in which case the higher-level canon classification takes precedence? Thank you!

He's already answered this question multiple times in this thread. It really doesn't matter, anyway; no one would accept a once and for all answer even if he were to give it.

Tasty Taste:

How have you decided to treat the "Conan Antonio Motti" name from the recent Conan O'Brien show for Holocron purposes? Is it just another joke, or are you taking it a bit more seriously than that?

When I was in college, I had a class called 'Historic Method'. They taught you how to deal with different types of sources in terms of credibility. I think it would really benefit most fans to deal with such a class.

All the sources indicate that Windy is male. Luke's Fate is in error.

Little Golden Book's Adventure in Beggar's Canyon retells the same story but gets Windy's sex right.

Concerning Windy:

According to the Wookieepedia Windy is also called Windom Starkiller in "Luke Skywalker's Walkabout" . And Star Wars Galaxies had a NPC called Windom Starkiller which was removed from the game again sometime in 2003 or 2004. According to the mission texts that I've found in the game's files, in one of the dialogues this NPC said "By the way, call me Windy'."

Oh, and there seems to be another contradiction: Some sources say Windy is male, but "Luke's Fate" shows Windy as a teenage girl.

So far I'm using the term T-canon for the upcoming
animated series and live-action series. Nothing
prior is being considered T-canon.

Where on the canon scale does this new level fall, and how would you define/describe it?

Mr. Taste, what is the canon level of +Hate leads to lollipops+?
The only part that contradicts other sources is that Maul has his tattoos when still a tot. He didn't get them until later.

Sorry, it's been so long since my last post. I'll try to run through a few of the ones I've got quick answers to.

I was wondering if there are any plans to expand the information about Camie, Deak and Windy. After all, almost nothing is known about them. Do they have official family names?
Windy's last name is Marstrap. That's about all I've got.

Are the terms "Jedi Sniper" & "Jedi Brute" actual terms used by the Jedi in that era?
Those are gameplay terms.

regarding the 3d clone wars cartoon and the live action star wars tv series, are they g-canon or c-canon?
So far I'm using the term T-canon for the upcoming animated series and live-action series. Nothing prior is being considered T-canon.

  • found two pics of guys that look like yellow Duros, and wondered if these could be a species of near-Duros.*
It's certainly possible, but then again there could be other explanations like mutation or albino.

Could someone tell me where Bane Malar can be seen in Jabba's Palace?
I haven't spotted him.

How many Jedi survived the Order 66 purges?
Hasn't been officially revealed. (As many as there is room for stories to tell).

How many did Vader actively hunt and kill?
Unknown. Lots if you count all the ones in the Jedi Temple. After Order 66, keeping the galaxy becomes his main priority, though.

Tasty's been absent recently, but I think most of those questions are already answered.

Was the fan discrepancy of the Galactic Army of the Republic ever resolved?

Up to later authors.

[How many Jeid survived the Order 66 purges? How many did Vader actively hunt and kill?

There will never be an exact number, but I suspect, out of the 10,000 Jedi before the Clone Wars, barely 1% (ie, less than 100) Jedi survive.

+Would a Lucas G-canon statement also apply to the C-canon EU? +

In pretty much all cases, G-Canon supersedes any C-Canon fact - as seen in such cases as Yoda and Dagobah; K-Adi-Mundi's knighthood and the rest.

Question: Everybody knows that the Falcon has Quad turrents, but I read that Han had them replaced with light Turborlasers. Can someone tell me if or when this occured?

Hi TastyTaste.

The Alien Anthology and other sources mention that there are a number of near-Duros species, and that the Neimoidians are the most populous and well known.

I found two pics of guys that look like *yellow *Duros, and wondered if these could be a species of near-Duros.

The pics are here and here.

Thanks
