JCF-favicon The Essential Atlas and Galactic Cartography: Official Discussion on the Jedi Council Forums (Literature board; posted by jasonfry on June 12, 2020 at 9:38 AM; accessed August 20, 2023): "Mapping is about star systems, not planets -- Vardos was a chore because it has three different planets (IIRC) and it wasn't immediately clear that they were part of the same system. The most important idea in naming is that the name shown on the map is what most ordinary galactic citizens would call that star system by way of shorthand. Bardelberan 7 would be a moon, though there are exceptions to that nomenclature. (Bardelberan VII would normally be a planet.) Based on the moon's name, I would assume there's also a planet and star called Bardelberan, but that's an assumption -- future storytelling might say the home planet and/or star are named something else. What shouldn't change (though, again, it occasionally does) is the idea that the name on the map is the name in common galactic usage." (backup link)
