Source Listing and Abbreviations Used

I have tried to document the source of my encyclopedia entries at all times. The bibliography at the end of this encyclopedia is quite extensive, and I have tried to indicate with each entry which source it came from. If an entry is not sourced, it means that I could not find one. The source listed is the first reference to an entry. If there are multiple sources listed, then all sources listed contributed some information to the encyclopedia. The abbreviations I have used are as follows:

Lastly, I document A Guide to the Star Wars Universe, Second Edition, by Bill Slavicsek, as a source of information. While this encyclopedia is very similar to Slavicsek's work, I have tried to put all my Star Wars knowledge into an encyclopedic format, complete with pictures, related topics, and cross-references. Slavicsek's Guide is also a source of some information that I missed. What was troubling for me was that I started creating this encyclopedia in earnest around the time of The Last Command by Timothy Zahn. Slavicsek's Guide was released about a year later, much to my dismay!
