That's further solidified by the third paragraph saying the re-release doesn't apply to future characters.

I'll send a response message for clarification though, since you're too brain dead to understand.

Nope, "at the time of publication" does not preclude it continuing to be valid after the fact. Only confirms it's validity... at the time of publication.

The later paragraphs seem to confirm that it only refers to characters prexisting in continuity, but that is not the same as what you attempted to claim.

Oh sry, I forgot that your cognitive functions fail to operate when discussing something that does not revolve around your beloved senpai. sad

The rest was De Agostini not understanding (there's a shocker) what I was asking (if it was Legends canon) and they thought I was asking if the quote from the Fact Files was also Disney Canon, in which they then clarified how the re-release operates under the new Canon policy.

The part regarding the discussion here is the snippet I originally posted.

all the quote says is that disney canon takes precedent over it. The fact file being accurate as of the time of publication was referring to disney's takeover. Nothing in the quote invalidates the fact file's use which the quote you're using itself says is legends canon.

It is a dark day indeed when Kbro of all people makes the most lucid point.

So that basically means one thing: if a Fact File statement is contradicted by later sources then those later sources take precedence. If it's not contradicted, I see no reason to assume they don't hold any weight.

Refer to my original question:

"Quotes regarding most powerful Jedi only applied to the old Star Wars continuity during the time-span of the publication?"

There response was "this is correct..." Thus, "any official information" is referring to content in general, not direct retcons.

Can't argue with that.

As for general legends canon would this mean legends quotes don't hold any bearing on new characters? Or would that only be if there are official quotes afterwards which contradict the quote in question

My question specifically asked regarding new characters simply existing, not direct retcons, so I'd say the former.

The latter is also true, but that has always been policy.

To be entirely fair, this only applies to DeAgostini. Other publishers might have different policies, but I honestly doubt it.

This should be common sense anyways that any statements only pertain to existing characters at the time.

I know basic comprehension is outside your general capabilities, but you could try and look at things logically. Continuity doesn't work by just dismissing every quote that's made before a certain source came out.

It holds some weight unless completely contradicted.
