Evidence and editorial notes

Continuity labels are taken from the individual article's own heading. Mixed guide identifies explicitly comparative Canon and Legends era guides rather than a single event in either continuity. Unverified means the article does not provide an explicit heading label; it does not establish that the story is Canon. Historical dates are only shown when the article explicitly includes an ABY or BBY date. The list flags missing inline images without substituting unrelated artwork.

A short entry is a research priority, not proof of error. The 46–121 ABY source gap register illustrates why some intervals cannot responsibly be padded with invented history. Articles can contain independently published comic and game art; covers must be labeled, never represented as photographs of the event.
