Per the Senate Halls here and here, the general consensus is that, as some non-canon narrative media doesn't really have an IU date (eg. Ronin: A Visions Novel), that non-canon appearances should be listed by release order instead of IU chronological order like canon narrative media. As such I propose that the following change to the Wookieepedia:Layout Guide/In-universe#Non-canon appearances

"This subsection will list non-canon appearances in in-universe chronological order, regardless of any relationship between stories, or lack thereof (example: LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga shares no connection with Star Wars: Tag & Bink, but they are listed together nonetheless)."

to be changed to

"This subsection will list non-canon appearances by real-world publication date instead of in-universe chronological order (example: William Shakespeare's The Merry Rise of Skywalker: Star Wars Part the Ninth will come before LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga)."
