One particularly noteworthy example from Star Wars that is still treated as Broad Strokes in the Legends continuity is Splinter of the Mind's Eye, the first Star Wars novel written, and which was intended to be the basis of a low budget sequel if A New Hope tanked. However, much of Legends continuity has subsequently made its way back into Story Team canon in modified form, with Rebels itself featuring a number of characters/species/concepts/etc.

The only previously established installments that remain in-canon post-Story Team are the six theatrical films and the Star Wars: The Clone Wars pilot film and television series (which serves the role as the prequel to Rebels). All of the old EU material is now reclassified as 'Legends' that are an Alternate Continuity, and sold under the label of Star Wars Legends. The Disney-Lucasfilm group created a dedicated Story Team to ensure everything produced under the new regime, starting with Star Wars Rebels, is iron-clad and wholly consistent canonically, but this necessitates the formal axing and cessation of the old EU and content for it. But after acquiring Lucasfilm in 2012, Disney decided to officially drop the lot of it, as seen here, with the business end formally coming down on April 25th, 2014. The Star Wars Expanded Universe has always existed in stages of canonicity, with works in higher levels overriding lower levels, and the films overriding everything.Friday the 13th: Part 5 has been ignored, contradicted, and treated as non-canon by all subsequent movies, which accept Part 6 as the canon follow-up to part 4.
