Wookieepedia (Never used as an actual source, only for things that I might have missed and/or order of events; and always backed up to before August 15th 2008 for unaffected information)

Note: For those unfamiliar with how this channel operates and are confused about the lack of references to Star Wars: The Clone Wars, this is the 501st's pre-TCW history. As many are aware, the 2008 Clone Wars series has massive difficulty fitting into the continuity of the Expanded Universe timeline so instead of trying to make up unofficial and/or nonsensical explanations on how events fit in like so many others including Wookieepedia and even official source books do, I just ignore TCW and it's direct tie-in material altogether. In most cases, I will include many post TCW sources that contain a few references to the show (for completionism's sake) and just retcon it out. This, I find is far easier than performing mental gymnastics to extrapolate nonsensical info to make things fit with the rest of the Expanded Universe and in some cases, being forced to omit stories that many enjoyed far more than even the best story arcs in TCW. The goal of Manda-LORE is and has always has been to preserve and present the Expanded Universe timeline at it's apex (which was about 2007-2008-ish plus added post TCW stuff for completionism's sake) and demonstrate to the uninitiated that the EU wasn't always a convoluted mess of contradictions that TCW left it before It's decanonization, and also to bring back stories and characters that didn't deserve to be retconned and/or overwritten by TCW.
