Forum:SH:URGENT: StarWars.com September 2011 Revamping

I just wanted to let everyone know that as of a few hours ago, StarWars.com is no longer what it once was. It's still there, but a new Oasis-esque skin is now in use throughout the site. While it looks very cool (and Wookieepedia even receives recognition on every encyclopedia entry!), this presents a very big problem to all of our previous formatting for the site.

SW, DB, Hyperspace, and probably several more of our templates are now obsolete&mdash;none of the old links (save for starwars.com itself) work. Many, many, many articles across the site are going to require updating not just formatting-wise, but for the new "Encyclopedia" entries (the Databank's successor).

It would be great if some of the highly tech-savvy members of our community could come up with new ways to cite the new Encyclopedia and various online articles on SW.com, but we still need to preserve the old templates somehow. Archive.org will probably do it, but I'd like to see others' opinions about how in general to tackle this complete revamping of the official site.  CC7567  (talk) 04:36, September 14, 2011 (UTC)
