Hello, I just thought I'd let everyone know that the Star Wars Galaxies site is no longer operational and that all links to the site redirect to the same page. Shouldn't we make some kind of template for these links so that it will be easy to redirect them to the appropriate pages on archive.org? I'm just not entirely sure how to do this myself.--Exiled Jedi

- I agree, but I don't know how either. Just FYI though, I copied the content of many SWG Features into word documents, as well as their old associated links. So the content won't be lost and we can still get the pictures and words from them. But yeah, not sure how to direct to archived links. StarsiderSWG 15:41, December 16, 2011 (UTC)
- Good work, I copied a lot of the information from the site as well.--Exiled Jedi

- Didn't think they would take down the site this soon. I saved pretty much the whole site back in September using HTTrack. There's already a template for links to this site: {{SonyCite}}, just needs to be modified to link to the Internet archive too. Btw, should we create an article about the site? --Craven 02:48, December 17, 2011 (UTC)
- OK, I've changed {{SonyCite}} to include a link to web.archive.org and created the article Starwarsgalaxies.station.sony.com. What do you think? I'm not so happy with the template's name, as the official Clone Wars Adventures website is also hosted on station.sony.com, so maybe it should be changed to something like SWGcite. --Craven 00:10, December 18, 2011 (UTC)
- Good work, Craven. I also think it would be a good idea to change the template to SWGcite.--Exiled Jedi (Greetings) 00:13, December 18, 2011 (UTC)
