The year is automatically included in the template based upon the page name. The other fields are as follows:

  • years: Years (BBY/ABY) that are apart of the era
  • jurisdiction: Jurisdiction in which the era occurred
  • TC: Years based on the Treaty of Coruscant (BTC or ATC must be included)
  • BRuu: Approximate years before the Ruusan Reformation
  • ARuu: Approximate years after the Ruusan Reformation
  • GrS: Approximate years based on the Great ReSynchronization (BrS or GrS must be included)
  • conflict: Ongoing conflicts
  • events: Key events during the era (do not include every birth, death, or battle)

  1. Star Wars: The Old Republic Encyclopedia places the Treaty of Coruscant, which served as the zero point of a calendar adopted by the Galactic Senate following the conclusion of the Great Galactic War per SWTOR mini Galactic History on The Old Republic's official website (article) (backup link), in the year 3653 BBY of the Galactic Standard Calendar, which was based around the date of the Battle of Yavin. Thus, the difference between the two dating systems is 3,653 years.
  2. 2.0 2.1 The New Essential Chronology establishes that the zero point of the calendar introduced by Tarsus Valorum was the Ruusan Reformation. The book places that event in the year of 1000 BBY of the Galactic Standard Calendar—which was based around the date of the Battle of Yavin—therefore establishing a difference of one thousand years between the two dating systems.
  3. Per the reasoning here, the Battle of Yavin, the zero point in the Galactic Standard Calendar per The New Essential Chronology, can be placed in 35:3:8 under the Great ReSynchronization dating system, thereby confirming the placement of the division between each Galactic Standard Calendar year as the third month in the Great ReSynchronization year. Thus, there is a two-month, seven day gap between the two dating systems, with the first two months of a GrS year being the last two of the preceding Galactic Standard Calendar year, and there is a total difference of 35 years and 2 months between the two systems.
