Updates

Though other matters have precluded much expansion of CanonWars beyond the original materials from ST-v-SW.Net, those are indeed coming. Eventually.

But in the meantime, I've updated the main Star Wars canon page with the December 2006 info from Chee, and I've also created two different condensed versions of the page as I've long wanted to do.

After all, the main SW canon overview weighs in at 130k or so, and simple copy-paste of the text into Windows Wordpad has it coming in at 25 single-spaced pages. It's a whopper to say the least.

The new condensed version cuts a little closer to the meat of the issue, and weighs in at 50k. It's less complete, but is still a quite thorough look at things. Wordpad has it coming in at less than 10 single-spaced pages, which is a vast improvement.

There's also an ultra-condensed version, which (given my obvious verbosity) is almost painfully short, to me. It weighs in at 20k and Wordpad shows it as just 4 pages long.

That's only a page longer than the first quickie scarcely-a-quote-on-it version of my EU canonicity page from 2002. Given the use of quotes on the ultra-condensed version plus the intervening four-and-a-half years of events and details that have surfaced, you can imagine the brevity involved.

Enjoy! And if you think anything's just missing too much in the shorter versions, let me know.
