Out of Universe

Out of Universe refers to the perspective in which an article is written; it is the opposite of in universe. Something written from an out of universe (OOU) perspective is written from a real life point of view. It will refer, for example, to real life publications, actors, authors, events, and so on, acknowledging that its subject is fictional. In contrast, an in universe perspective will strive for versimilitude; that is, it will be written as though the author existed within the Star Wars universe. Articles about any in-universe things, such as characters, vehicles, terminology, or species, should always be written from an in universe perspective. If a section in the article is not, such as the listing of a character's published appearances or behind the scenes details, it should be tagged as such. In contrast, articles about books, movies, games, or other real life Star Wars material should obviously be written from an out of universe perspective, but should still be noted as such.
