@redheathen: You are mistaken. Resurrections is not N canon. It is S canon. Therefore it happened.

@redheathen: Material that may cause problems for continuity but is not N-Canon is described as "S-Canon", or "Secondary Canon". Resurrection has been referenced at least twice in two editorial works (Insider and the Encyclopaedia), and the Prophets' existence in the same region as the one Resurrection is set in was canonised with Dark Forces, iirc.

Please tell me where this about stuff referenced in continuity becoming S canon? Also, continuity was S and C canon. Are you saying that if an S canon source referenced N canon that it could also become S canon?
In addition to that, can you please provide a source that says that the entire N canon work and not solely the portion from the N canon work that is mentioned in continuity (be it S or C canon - determined once you reply) becomes part of continuity?
Not entirely sure what you're asking for.
I want you and @frozen to:
1. Tell me where it is said that something that was N canon (this stuff <-- wording I used above) but referenced in continuity becomes specifically S canon. Why do you two think this? What did you base this opinion on?
2. It was said by one of you that if N canon is published in continuity, then it became S canon. Based on that statement, I asked if you (whichever one who said it) are saying that if N canon is published in something that was S canon, then could it be brought out of N canon and placed into S canon. I ask this because continuity was both S and C canon. I am asking whether or not it matters that the publication source that mentions the N canon material is itself S or C canon.
3. Tell me where it is said that an entire story that was N canon becomes part of continuity when only something specific from/found within the story, not the entire story itself, was published in a continuity work.
EDITED to add "<-- wording I used above" in item number one.
Your questions make no sense. The story itself was canonised with those materials referencing them. It doesn't just canonise "part" of the story, it canonises all of it. The sources I'm referring to encompass the entire comic:
The Prophets being in this region were also reference in Dark Forces. Also,

I never said this. I said:

It being referenced is a separate discussion within my post. I suggest you read my post again.

My questions make perfect sense, and you are simply repeating what has already been said in regards to a story becoming canonized because something from that story is published elsewhere., and I understand that you're saying that it encompass the entire comic.
- What I do not understand is how you determined that an entire story that was non-canon becomes canonized when something from the story is published. How did you determine that the official LFL policy was to move the story, in its entirety, from N canon into specifically S canon?
- How did you determine that the official LFL policy was to move the story, in part or in full, into S canon and not C canon?
Please do not tweet Chee or Hidalgo or whomever because they are responding to questions about old canon in odd ways that sometimes do not fit in with what was said years ago.
I want to know how you determined this. Where did you read that this is the policy? Did you rely on Ant's and KOB's post regarding Canon and Consideration and take it from there, or did you read it on Chee's old blog posts? Did you use the C&C post and click on those links thinking that you were reading all of what Chee said on the topic years ago? What I'm asking is very simple, BOD. HOW DID YOU LEARN THIS? Did you learn it from an official source or from reading other peoples' posts/blogs?
I'm pretty sure I know the rules about old canon. I thought I knew them pretty well, better than most people. Obviously, I do not. Obviously you and @frozen know more than I do, and I would like to learn from you. I do not need to have all the sources in which the story is mentioned posted because that doesn't answer my questions.
