[edit] What belongs here

Stuff that's unrelated to the Expanded Universe doesn't belong in this template. Adam, if you have some other vision for a template based on this one, than create a fork template under another title that isn't at "Template:Expanded Universe" and doesn't say "Star Wars Expanded Universe" at the top. — Phil Welch 05:32, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

OK, in the category on the EU template, I'll change it to "non-EU projects The Wookieepedian 05:33, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

That makes no sense. That's like creating a category on the Star Wars template that says "non-Star Wars projects" and including Star Trek or something crazy like that. I'm serious about this--create a fork of this template under another title and use that if that's more toward what you're envisioning. Something like Template:Star Wars (non-episode). — Phil Welch 05:35, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

OK, I see what you mean. The Wookieepedian 19:42, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Add The Great Heep

We definitely need to add The Great Heep to this list, though whether it would count as a spin-off film or cartoon, there's room for debate. (Think of an animated Holiday Special), we also need the article of course - but you can guarantee within 24 hours of a redlink appearing on this template, somebody will have created the article ;) Sherurcij ^{(talk) (Terrorist Wikiproject)} 13:04, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

The Great Heap is not a standalone animated film. Technically, it was episodes 14 and 15 of Star Wars: Droids. The Wookieepedian 04:45, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] X-wing series

Shouldn't we add the X-wing series to this template? – Mipadi 20:21, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

There are 10 different items we can add to this template but we can't since there is no room. Jedi6 01:09, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reformat

I like to recommend a reformat of Template:Expanded Universe to a template like Template:Metroid series. For starters it is incorrectly named since it doesn't have Star Wars in the title so it could be any expanded universe. Also it is limiting in how many items can be placed on it.

I'm The Wookieepedian, and I support this message. :P The Wookieepedian 01:42, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

I agree :) Deckiller 01:52, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

How is it? Jedi6 23:23, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

Pretty good. It may be different than the rest of the Star Wars templates, but the color scheme is the same, and that's all that matters IMO. Nice work. Deckiller 23:24, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Broken

The styling on the template is broken—it doesn't look right in high resolutions (I'm in 1280x1024 right now). I'm working on trying to fix it. – Mipadi 15:47, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merge

I honestly think that the film template should be merged with this one so that we can keep it all in one template. See my idea for the template. The Wookieepedian 05:54, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

Try adding the fanfilms some way too. Jedi6 06:02, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

I'm just afraid to merge the two because there was a LOT of sensitivity on this the last time. The Wookieepedian 06:03, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

Well this one needs to be renamed anyway so I'd wait a day for replys. Then just be bold and do it. Jedi6 06:09, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

However, I think if we're going to add the films, we should just have this at Template:Star Wars, and replace what is there currently. Most of the other film series templates have been treated this way, so I thought it would be nice to do that to this one as well. The Wookieepedian 06:29, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

I agree. Try posting this idea at the other template. Jedi6 06:37, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

I recommend posting this sort of stuff on the Wikipedia:WikiProject Star Wars/things to do. Deckiller 19:07, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
