Hi,
I just noticed (while checking my webpage that links to the
pause pages) that the subthemes for the Star Wars sets were renamed
to "Episode I" and "Classic". While I find the new names far better
that "{Episode IV}" (especially for sorting purposes ;-) ) I wonder
whether those changes were announced somewhere.
I imagine that this change broke quite a few Hyperlinks...
Regards,
Hakan

Please tell me that I am not going delusional and this is in a foreign
language. If this is in English I think I better stop looking at my computer
screen and go lay down for a bit. No more tuna-artichoke shakes before dinner.

Heheh..:-)
Yes it's Turkish. Sorry for the feel of delusion. Finally I meet a Turk
here, and it was an excitement for me seeing that finally there is an
and to my representative job for the whole Turkish community here on

No, the changes weren't announced. It's just one of many everyday cleanup or
maintenance efforts in the set DB. (I'm even surprised anyone noticed. :)
LEGO officially uses the term "Classic" for the original SW trilogy (Episodes
IV-VI, that is), so the old category names in the DB were wrong. (And the
curly braces {} signified that we knew it was an unofficial categorization
but didn't yet know the official categorization.)
I think it's kinda unfortunate that LEGO chose to call Episodes IV-VI
"Classic" when Episode I gets its own whole designation. At the very least
they coulda called it "Episodes IV-VI"... Anyway... Call me A/R. :-)

Nah, only if someone had links to the old canned theme-search queries, which
looked frighteningly dubious and not very link-friendly before:
http://www.lugnet.com/pause/search/?theme=LEGO,SYSTEM,Star+Wars,%7BEpisode+I%7D
http://www.lugnet.com/pause/search/?theme=LEGO,SYSTEM,Star+Wars,%7BEpisode+IV%7D
http://www.lugnet.com/pause/search/?theme=LEGO,SYSTEM,Star+Wars,%7BEpisode+V%7D
http://www.lugnet.com/pause/search/?theme=LEGO,SYSTEM,Star+Wars,%7BEpisode+VI%7D
A side-effect of getting rid of the {}'s is that the new URLs for those DB
queries are slightly more human-friendly:
http://www.lugnet.com/pause/search/?theme=LEGO,SYSTEM,Star+Wars,Episode+I
http://www.lugnet.com/pause/search/?theme=LEGO,SYSTEM,Star+Wars,Classic
although I wouldn't say they're link-friendly just yet (more on that in a
couple days).
If someone had bookmarks on the old queries, I apologize for any inconveninece
caused by the renaming of the subcategories.

Nope, no bookmarks, I was creating the links in my perl script
(hey, doesn't everyone have a sets-to-html-script? ;-) ), so the
human-friendly part was a little lost on me ;-)

I've always thought of the trilogy stuff as 'Classic', that's what my S@H
catalogs call it. Speaking of SW subthemes, what is the proper way of
classifiying these sets?
Basically, Star Wars can be classified three ways...
Theme: Space
Subtheme: Star Wars
Minithemes: Episode 1, Classic
You'll see this on www.adequete.com/lego/reviews I don't agree with it at all.
Theme: Star Wars
Subthemes: Episode i, Classic
This is the logical way to classify SW, and probably the most common at the
moment.
Theme: Movies
Subthememes: Star Wars, Moviemaker set, upcoming Harry Potter sets
This is a new classification that I am proposing right now, does anyone think
it makes sense? If LEGO does another movie in 2002, it will probalby be a
valid theme (or perhaps a subsystem?)
