- I am glad that someone has created a Eras LEGO (type=lego) heading for The Freemaker Adventures articles. It leads to a Category:The Freemaker Adventures articles which has not yet been created? Would it make more sense to direct the LEGO heading to all articles that appear in the LEGO continuity, and not just the Freemaker Adventures? Should we created a Category for LEGO continuity articles to replace the current Category:The Freemaker Adventures articles? Just curious as to what other people think.

- I have an extra question, since this header is just for Lego articles that are non-canon is still necessary to add the "{{Noncanon}}" template?--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 04:46, September 14, 2017 (UTC)
- LEGO media like the Freemaker Adventures are not considered Canon. So it would be right to add the Noncanon template. This is for the benefit of casual Star Wars fans and visitors who aren't familiar with the current Canon system. Andykatib 05:11, September 14, 2017 (UTC)
- True, I forgot about that, since I know LEGO is non canon for me it seems unecessary to add the the template, but casual fans don't know if lego counts or something similar--DarthRuiz30 (talk) 05:20, September 14, 2017 (UTC)
- I have modified Module:Eras to include all LEGO Star Wars products and not just the Freemaker Adventures. Andykatib 02:11, September 15, 2017 (UTC)
- Please note that the original CT on the subject, Forum:CT:Creation of a LEGO Icon and Tab for The Freemaker Adventures, only specifies Freemaker Adventures. Further additions to the LEGO tab will need to go through another CT. That said, I'm not opposed to this at all but for now, I've reverted your Eras modification. 1358 (Talk) 09:43, September 16, 2017 (UTC)
- No worries, I understand. I think I got a bit carried away yesterday. It would be best to resolve this collectively as a community. We should have another CT on this. I'm preoccupied with my studies so I'll leave it up to someone else. Andykatib 09:49, September 16, 2016 (UTC)

- Now that we are implementing a LEGO banner for the Freemaker articles and creating LEGO versions of articles for topics that appear in the Freemaker continuity, I was wondering if we should extend this to other LEGO media and products like The Yoda Chronicles TV series, games, and books, Droid Tales, and LEGO Star Wars: The Resistance Rises. Should we redirect the links in those articles to LEGO ones as well? I have redirected all the links in the Jek-14 article to LEGO links. Let me know what you think. This would be a great undertaking and I think we should decide collectively as a community. Andykatib 09:39, September 16, 2016 (UTC)
- I feel this should include all LEGO products from both before and after the canon change. It's not like there was any legends LEGO content and it was always effectively separate from both continuities. Ayrehead02 (talk) 12:20, September 16, 2017 (UTC)
- I agree that it should include all LEGO products. I have a couple of things I'd like to ask quick, does this mean that from now on we don't add any lego stuff in appearances on current canon pages? And that if any page has lego products in its appearances, we remove then? --Lewisr (talk) 12:30, September 16, 2017 (UTC)
- That's exactly what it would mean, Lewis. We would handle the LEGO continuity the same way we treat the relationship between Canon and Legends. FWIW saying, I plan on creating one or more CTs to handle all of the policy issues discussed in this SH and more. There are actually quite a few policy pages that will need to be updated now to reflect the LEGO continuity's existence. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 15:22, September 16, 2017 (UTC)

- I want to make it very clear to everyone that the original CT authorizing the creation of the LEGO tab makes it perfectly clear that this applies exclusively to Freemakers subjects. That means Wookieepedia has not authorized the creation of any other LEGO articles from any other media. People are already jumping the gun on this LEGO tab pretty badly, so some articles are going to be deleted to bring us in line with our current policy. Any expansion of LEGO coverage on Wookieepedia will need to go through a new CT. Fair warning to everyone. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 22:16, September 16, 2017 (UTC)
- No worries, have gotten the message. Will reverse most of my edits. Andykatib 04:31, September 16, 2017 (UTC)
